Ferocious Hornet Moments | Top 5 | BBC Earth 

LMAO, smart bee too, always have evidence to take with you to the court.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The big insect is not a bee it's a giant Japanese hornet!

Props to it as the camera didn't buzz once

Then, as a beekeeper what about the males that are killed for impregnation of the queen?

@@Andrew-yf3lu the males are killed by the bees themselves,and it goes this way.As a beekeeper,you should feel happy 😊

If Japanese bees were put with European bees, it would be so cool if they taught how to defend, instead of going attack mode straight away

Also, fuck wasps. Anything that kills them is okay on my book. I've been thinking about figuring out what eaten the particular variety near my home and purchasing some of whatever it is to let loose.

@@sammehlberg6664 Oh shut up. Wasps are a very important part of the ecosystem. They are more important than you, they contribute more to the local environment than you do. So just stop being a whiny little 🐕 and deal with some stings that hardly even hurt (I'm assuming you hate wasps because you got stung once or twice, boo hoo, so tragic, how did you survive such a serious injury? Lmao) Don't try to introduce new species into an area, humans have done that in the past and it didn't go well. If what you want to buy was meant to live where you do, then they would have existed there in the first place.

Then they give the giant, "the bum's rush!"

“Alright fellas, LET’S GET HIM! ALL OUT ATTACK!”

If the bees didn't evolve alongside the giant hornets, how do they know to use a beeball to roast a giant hornet scout?

​@@gooberclown Japanese honeybees did evolve alongside giant hornets, allowing them to defend against their attacks, but European honeybees did not.

Evolution is a hell of a development program.

I'm skeptical. I would think that the hornet's body temperature rises more within a few minutes in the sun. I speculate that the bees sting the hornet.

When I was younger I'd turn the pages in a book when there were insects especially spiders lmao. Didn't even want to touch the page

I'm not even scared when there on screen

But u see them so much closer up tho ahh

We are also so much more tolerable humans when all we do is watch them on a screen...

This way we won't half to worry about them stinging us.

Basically what happens in prison when you drop the soap.

46 degrees celsius is close to what my graphics card was at while watching this video lol sheesh. That thing got roasted.

When he bit one of them they all realized

Reminds me of when i stepped in a fire ant mound after driving over it and parking over it.. I stepped outof jeep into a angry fire ant mound my left leg got bit over 100 times at the same time.. I was heading to concert but had to immediately go home while entire body started itching so i took alot of Benadryl drank over gallon of water passed out for 24-48 hours and woke up like nothing happened. Thank you Benadryl.. That stuff literally saved me

That's on purpose, they're not really like that. For a start a Hornet Queen would not fly into a nest which was not her own, that's not even a female lol.

I saw one after it got hit by the blade of our ceiling fan,it was fun 😂

Yeah the European hornets are huge. But they call them gentle giants. I'm generally able to pick one up and move it. I've also saved one with sugar water.

@@lordfatcock I was surprised how gentle they are. Wasps are much more annoying. Now I know they actually eat them, I think we will be great friends.

Have you seen them in person? Where? Im Japanese living in Japan and these aren’t impressive. These are deadly. People die here every year from this creature. If you have seen them in person you would know all you would see is a brown bird like creature with very loud buzzing. It’s so loud you can’t talk to others or hear what they say. I wish westerners stop calling these hornets. These are called sparrow bees and a giant one is called Japanese giant sparrow bees. The reason is from 10 m a way it looks like a flying sparrow. Japanese name is literally スズメばち 雀蜂, Suzume Bachi where Suzume is sparrow and Bachi is derived of hachi meaning bees. I came to know westerners are calling these killer hornets. These aren’t called killer hornets in Japan. I mean it has a place in the ecosystem in Japan. They consume large amount of pests that are damaging to forests and even crops. Only reason these should be eliminated is to protect Japanese bees in Japan as they’re becoming extinct now. And these sparrow bees especially giant ones destroy the beehives of Japanese bees.

When I saw it for the first time, I yelled and stomped it.

Well, the BBC has a taste for not only hurting animals but children as well.

Yeah- only 1 species know that trick tho- the rest? slaughtered.

@@elevown I know, but still nice way to start don’t you think?

There may have been more off camera, but I only saw three dead bees, shows how effective they are at stopping the hornets.

Hornets

According by Wikipedia that’s not true. “Since 2001, the yearly human death toll caused by stings of bees, wasps and hornets in Japan has been ranging between 12 and 26.[65] Since this number also includes deaths caused by bees, wasps, and other hornet species, the number of deaths caused by Asian giant hornets is likely to be much lower.”

And twenty thousand people killed by people.

@@pansepot1490 wikipedia is not a reliable source.

I thought it was 17

LOL it really does

I was just thinking that lol. “Well done, 47.”

Or an Elf from LOTR 😂

"the hornets were sending chemicals to signal that weird egg shaped object they found , little did they know , it wasn't an egg, it was the head of *agent 47* , he has a flame thrower , and he's angry."

"Hello bee 47, we have a new task for you After the last hornet attack we lost many other bees in the fight, we need to avoid that Your mission is to infiltrate the enemies hornet's base and retrieve any valuable information. Good luck bee 47"

EXACTLY! There is 0 space inside a hornets nest or beehive to put a massive camera, so how they got all this footage I'll never know

@@vice.nor.virtue Mini camera or super zoom with high quality converter

No you mule

Except the 300 of Sparta actually had about 2000 other Greek reinforcements and they still lost against the more numerous Persian army. All the Spartans got slaughtered, some of the other contingents surrendered.

Oh, but, you see, the bees can play the "raise my temperature tolerance" game too.

Nope, because we'll have hopefully wiped them all out well before then. The hornets, that is, but we need the bees.

Just like we are eradicating mosquitoes by making them infertile we will probably make hornets infertile too

someone tried that in brazil with african and european bees, end result killer bees

@@DaGabbaGangsta didnt know that

Or they can teach them an in return teach them how to make more honey fair deal

Though Africanized honey bees display certain behavioral traits that make them less than desirable for commercial beekeeping, excessive defensiveness and swarming foremost, they have now become the dominant type of honey bee for beekeeping in Central and South America due to their genetic dominance as well as ability to out-compete their European counterpart, with some beekeepers asserting that they are superior honey producers and pollinators. Africanized honey bees, as opposed to other Western bee types: Tend to swarm more frequently and go farther than other types of honey bees. Are more likely to migrate as part of a seasonal response to lowered food supply. Are more likely to "abscond"-the entire colony leaves the hive and relocates-in response to stress. Have greater defensiveness when in a resting swarm, compared to other honey bee types. Live more often in ground cavities than the European types. Guard the hive aggressively, with a larger alarm zone around the hive. Have a higher proportion of "guard" bees within the hive. Deploy in greater numbers for defense and pursue perceived threats over much longer distances from the hive. Cannot survive extended periods of forage deprivation, preventing introduction into areas with harsh winters or extremely dry late summers. Live in dramatically higher population densities.
