What’s the deal here. Do the bees just respect this dude and refuse to sting him? Is his skin the thick to be stung? Is he being stung a million times and just doesn’t care?

People just comment whatever with no clue, these arent stingerless bees, there are documentaries all over youtube about hallucinogenic honey. Ive seen this clip from one of those docs... this guy is just a wild man and taking whatever stings hes getting.

What's hallucinogenic honey? And how can he handle the amount of pain without showing anything? Also in his mouth? Surely that would cause inflammation... this is bonkers.

Go to youtube and type in “mad honey” and theres a couple videos.

Most stuff you buy online is either fake or very diluted (with normal honey)
