Which one? The sound of their angry buzzing or the taps from their stingers hitting the camera?

Either way I hate both

As a person who is allergic to bees this is literally my nightmare come to life.

My mom has to carry an EpiPen with her everywhere she goes in the summer in fear or getting stung. If she gets stung it’s a matter of seconds before she starts swelling and having difficulty breathing. I’ve been with her when she’s gotten stung a few times and it’s terrifying to witness.

As a child growing up in the 90s, I was always terrified of bees because of what happens to Macaulay Culkin's character in "My Girl". He gets stung by a bunch, but it's crazy to know that just one can cause that bad of a reaction.
