Beekeeper Lv Kongjiang, 20, attracted 50 pounds (23 kilograms) of bees to his body within 60 minutes on July 16—but was stung by rival Wang Dalin, whose swarm weighed in at 57 pounds (26 kilograms) in a competition in Shaoyang, China.
Wearing only shorts and goggles, the pair used queen bees they’d raised to attract other bees.
