And in other news......


This is a beekeeper, wearing tens of thousands of bees,  waiting to be weighed during a bee-bearding contest in Longhui county, Shaoyang, in central China's Hunan province.

I have to say there are probably more enjoyable ways of spending an afternoon but hey, each to their own, at least wearing all those bees he's unlikely to get a pie in the face.

I read about this, didn't see such an extreme coverage as in this image though...great to imagine what the judges are saying: "good technique, nice ripple effect on the leg, his father was an expert you know, however the way the face creates a pattern isn't as good as I've seen..."

My only question is why?

Why? Two bee or not two bee? That is the question.
