Worst fear

No thank you! Lol luckily my closest call like that wasn't really close...
I yelled jump like 3 times. Guess he couldnt hear me for the buzzin in his ears.
As terrifying as that is, he knew what he signed up for, that smoking torch/punk he dropped was supposed to suppress the bees while he raided the hive. Bad day at the office for sure.
I sure would’ve wanted to
I would have swan dove in to that little puddle of water like it was the Olympics
Having been swarmed by yellow jackets and red wasp, I could feel all the suck he was tied up in. Fortunately, I always had my feet on the ground and could get away quickly with relatively minimal stings compared to what I am sure he got.
Wow! I'd rather kill a bear w/a Buck knife than get chased by a bee.
Way way back in one of the remote swamps I've been in, the deer cross heavily in the one corner. But it's nothing but trees 1-4 inches wide. There is 1 perfect Oak in the middle that would cover most shooting lanes.
Right in the middle of it where the tree forms a Y is one of the biggest bee hives I've ever seen inside the tree. You can hear them a long ways away buzzing there's so many.
Safe to say that tree is theirs

I was amazed at his presence of mind to actually climb down. Maybe it was that they were honeybees and not wasps. Anyway, I hope to never find out.

Is that a honey gatherer?!! Did they do that intentionally?! Notice the smoke coming from the hive when they drop it, the bare feet and relatively calm rapid and ropeless decent.
Worst fear? That would be much better than going through the ice when I'm ice fishing. Now that's a worst fear! I'll take the stings thank you, and I'm mildly allergic too.
Thats not a fear for me because the only fishing I'm doing is when water is still in its liquid state. ;-)

Honey bees are tolerable, but I’ve been literally incased in a ground hornets nest (fell into a huge nest in the side of a levee) and I’m not allergic but was stung enough to make me pass out at 14 yrs old. Luckily dad and buddy were close. It was misery.
I imagine misery is an understatement having been in some bad encounters myself.
