When kids attack!

So i'm flying at the park and i do a stall turn and come flying back towards myself pretty low. I didn't see the little 4 year old who silently snuck up behind me and i missed him by only a few feet I thought that was kindof scary but i figured that now that i knew he was there i would be able to watch out for him if I kept the heli up high. Well it turned out he had friends and soon after i had 3 little kids chasing my heli around the park, this was no real problem because the heli is much faster than them and i figured i could get far away enough to land when i needed to. So as im thinking this 7 more kids come running towards me. So that makes a gand total of 10 kids, and every one of them seemed determined to catch the heli when it came down. At that point im like oh crap i need to land this thing now because no matter what i told them they wouldn't stay away from it. There was no where to land and the battery was running out so i flew over to a large pile of iceplants and dropped it. I thought that would end the kids' excitement, but no, they wanted to touch it. I had to run to pick it up before they did but i got there first (phew). That was close.
Watch out for kids! They don't care if you tell them to stay back.
