Austin Bellamy was assisting in clearing tree branches when he accidentally cut into the bee’s nest.
It was also reported that the man ingested about 30 bees. As his mother told a local news station, doctors were pulling bees out of her son’s body.
The United States Department of Agriculture says that African Killer Bees “are more defensive, stinging more with less provocation than other honey bees.”
Austin’s family members witnessed the horrific attack.

His grandmother explained, “I was going to try and climb the ladder to get to Austin … but I couldn’t get to him because I was surrounded in bees. He tried to anchor himself down, and he couldn’t. He was hollering, ‘Help! Help me! Help!’ And nobody would help him.”
