To Bee or Not To Bee

Look at these crazy people. Seems like "wearing' bees has become fashionable. Seriously, what do think they are doing?

For adventurous beekeepers there is a special Bee Beard Competition, held in Ontario. If you think this competition was created by young and crazy Canadians of nowadays, that's not really so - the competion is about 300 years. The idea is to create a beard of bees by tying the queen to a thread around the neck. Once the bees smell their queen, they huddle around and it creates a certain look. And the winner is the one who stays alive until an ambulance arrives (just kidding).
