An 81-year-old Oklahoma man is in the hospital recovering from a killer bee attack. The man suffered over 200 stings and is beyond lucky to be alive. Africanized bees AKA Killer Bees are incredibly dangerous.

I stumbled across this story earlier today thanks to KOKH Fox 25. The man was suddenly attacked by a swarm of Killer Bees while mowing his yard. He attempted to retreat inside but didn't make it into the house.

While mowing his yard with a riding mower he noticed a few bees around, a few attempted to attack. He went to the house to get bug spray, and that's when he became completely engulfed in a swarm of Killer Bees.
IT SOUNDS LIKE A B-HORROR MOVIE BUT KILLER BEES ARE VERY REAL & DEADLY
He fall off the porch and broke his hip and lay there for over 3 hours before getting rescued. Some construction workers noticed him and came to his aid. He was immediately transported to the hospital.

Unlike regular Honey Bees, the Killer Bee or Africanized Bee is far more aggressive and will swarm and attack in large numbers. They've been known to kill humans, livestock, and other animals they feel threatened by.
BE ON THE LOOKOUT AND AWARE OF BEES AND HIVES TO AVOID BEING ATTACKED
Great, as if tornadoes weren't enough, now Oklahoma has to deal with Killer Bees too. Glad to hear this man survived his encounter and is recovering. Be on the lookout and if bees are present don't press your luck.
