The Guinness Book of Records includes a category for "most pounds of bees worn on the body," which is currently held by American animal trainer Mark Biancaniello. Biancaniello successfully wore 350,000 bees, weighing just over 87 pounds, during a 1998 broadcast of the Guinness World Records: Primetime television show.
A 2005 attempt to break the record by Irish beekeeper Philip McCabe, who was to wear a full one hundred pounds of bees, failed when only 60 pounds of bees landed on his body.
Hive bees are attracted into position by a queen in a small cage worn under the chin or elsewhere on the body.
To give an idea of just how many bees make up 87 pounds, the man below managed to carry 26 pounds of bees on his body!
