Sunjay Kapur, friend of Prince William and ex-husband of Bollywood star Karisma Kapoor, reportedly died of anaphylactic shock after being stung by a bee during a polo match in Windsor, England.
Drones don’t have stingers. Queens and workers have stingers. Queens are from worker larva that are fed royal jelly that transforms them into a queen that is capable of reproduction. Workers are technically female but they’re closer to asexual.
So, that badass enby ace bee gave that motherfucker what for.
You are right if it’s a honey bee. There are many other species of bees that do have males with stingers. For example many solitary bees (live alone rather than in a hive) have stingers though aren’t known to sting people unless swallowed like in the OP.
The British isles have over 200 species of solitary bees so it’s very possible the bee hero in question here was a male :)
I just learned about solitary bees a few years ago. For some reason it has never cross my mind until I was researching these unusual blue bees in my garden which turned out to bee Blue Banded Bee which is awesome:
RIP to that poor bee :(
That bee was too good for this world
She died a hero.
Could have been a male bee too

Didn’t even think it about it not being a honey a bee. You’re right.
