What is your most memorable fruit harvesting experience? (slrpnk.net)

Have you ever had an especially rewarding, adventurous, dangerous, or really stupid experience of harvesting/foraging fruit?

I tend to live a sheltered life, so I don't have anything too exciting to share. I've harvested bananas with a hornets' nest on the underside of a leaf multiple times, but nothing unusual ever happened. I've gone wading through the swamp looking for aguaje, but the anacondas had already been hunted to extinction in that area. I've stood under a fruiting durian tree without a helmet, but it seems that durians don't just fall from the sky when I'm hungry.

Does anyone have an exciting or uplifting story to share?

During blackberry season we would go to the forest with my sister and my parents and a bunch of buckets. We filled the buckets, do small tree houses and get back home covered with scratched from the thorns but with enough berries to make jam and pies for the whole year.
