Normally when people handle a beehive they are covered from head to toe! One man in West Bengal, India has specialized in removing beehives, but does so with his bare hands.
This video is fascinating to say the least. To perform the feat he first exposes all bees to burning branches, he was then able to remove bees with his bare hands. He lets them fly away, one handful at a time.
After the majority of bees were removed, he then cut the beehive from the base, removing half the beehive at a time. He came back shortly to remove the remaining portion of the beehive and the queen bee, which will be taken far away from the building, to ensure the bees do not return.
