Good Luck.
Being attacked killer bees usually only happens horror movies or nightmares. a couple in Texas, the nightmare turned reality on Wednesday night. Kristen Beauregard, 44, and her boyfriend were their garden exercising their two ponies. Ms Beauregard told reporters that everything was normal until one the ponies started kicking and jumping. The animal was very frightened something. Suddenly she saw a dark cloud the sky and she realised it was a swarm bees. She said: "It got all dark, like it was night time, there were so many bees." The bees attacked the couple and their horses.

Luckily they had a swimming pool, so the couple jumped . Ms Beauregard was stung 200 times the bees. Her boyfriend counted over 50 stings his arms, neck and head. The pool probably saved their lives because the bees could not attack them the water. Kristen explained how terrifying it was. She said: "We were trying to stand the water but every time we stuck our heads air, they would cover us and start stinging us. We were trying to breathe and they were stinging us the face and on the nose." Unfortunately, the two ponies could not escape the bees. They got stung thousands times. One died on the farm, the other passed at the vet's clinic later that evening.
