BEE MAN

Forty two year old BEE MAN  Wang Dalin emerged as the winner of the 'Wearing Bee Clothes Contest' beating fellow keeper, twenty year old Lu Kongjiang, in Shaoyang, Hunan Province in China on July 17th. They wore a pair of shorts and googles and used Queen bees to attract other bees on to themselves. Wang Dalin won after attracting 26 kg (57 pounds), around 270,000 bees in 60 minutes. Lu Kongjiang managed to attract 22.9 kg (50 pounds) of bees. In case you are wondering how the weight of the bees were determined, both contestants were weighed before the contest began and after the bees settled on them, covering their entire body.
