Beekeper covers himself with 20.000 bees in an attempt to set a new world record


A man from Saudi Arabia tried to beat a GUINNES World Record held by a Chinese man, Ruan Liangming, covering himself with 20.000 bees.

However, Zuhair Fatani struggled to complete his bid to turn himself into a human beehive for 100kg of bees, as one of the queens snubbed him and buzzed off.

Today’s attempt was the second time the bee-care specialist had tried to out-bee the current record-holder Ruan Liangming, of China.

Liangming holds the record for maintaining the heaviest mantle of bees, which ‘weighed a daunting 63.7kg (140 lb 6.95 oz), including a terrifying 60 queens,’ according to Guinness World Records.

Fortunately, Zuhair Fatani claims to have partial immunity from bee stings after spending more than 30 years as a keeper.
