Just seen this guy climbing a a 40m tree using a vine strop to get honey with bees swarming around. Amazing climbing:

Seen that before, they guys amazing.  I’d happily give him a pair of my old spikes

Fair play to him. His vine looks like it would pass LOLER as well... no need for CE marks In Africa.
Enjoyed watching that. [emoji106]

Seen that before, extraordinary bravery and balance.

 

last summer I had two multiple sting events with bees, first one was 6 stings second maybe 4,  not really that painful, however on the second one I had a strong reaction and had to have an injection as my throat was swelling etc.

 

Apparently because the two events were so close in time (8 weeks maybe) my body couldn’t handle the poison or something. So now I have to carry a épi pen in case for the rest of my life.

 

I wonder how this plays out with this guy?

Probably not. The cameras go off and they’ll bust out the Marlboro Lights and an 090.
