To be clear… He didn’t LOSE a bet and had to sit on the bee hive. He sat on the bee hive to WIN a bet.
Jamie Grainger, a beekeeper in rural New Zealand, imperiled his rectum (damn near killed him) all for 1,000 New Zealand dollars ($715 USD).
Apparently his fellow bee keepers dared him to sit bare-assed on the active hive for 30 seconds in order to win the bet.
He (regrettably?) did.
This is another example of a contest where there are no winners… the man and certainly not the bees.
