Flute is difficult. I own one. But did not get a single tone out of it yet. Yeah that's right, it felt off when i tried it (not even sure i assembled it right). I want to learn at some point.

The violin is often called the "devil’s instrument." According to a famous legend, the devil once fell in love with a mortal woman and tried to claim her, but she rejected him. In his despair - or perhaps rage - the Prince of Darkness transformed his beloved into a musical instrument. Its shape resembles a woman’s body, and its voice echoes the sound of weeping.

You have to blow on it just right, to hear the sound.

Imo, having (unsuccessfully) tried many, I think harp or violin would be up there.

According to my former music professor, the Bagpipe.

I've seen a one man band playing 3-5 things at the same time so I guess they can't be that hard.

He was Chairman of Music for the city. Learned to play every orchestral instrument, and had began to learn folk instruments. I remember him expressing his frustration with trying to get used to playing the Bagpipe. Yes, it is a beautiful instrument, but he IS correct, it's actually very difficult to play.

I don't know if you can because you have to do the cymbals with your knees
