I've made my share of crazy bets but they don't come close to the bets these guys made. A group of beekeepers in New Zealand routinely make odd bets with each other,one time it was $500 (New Zealand dollars) to eat a slug. The latest bet was to sit down on a beehive without the benefit of pants. The first guy to attempt to win the $1,000 bet only lasted 19 seconds out of the 30 seconds required. The next guy to try lasted the 30 seconds and was really pleased about it, saying it was the easiest money he had ever made. Though some bees died because of stinging his bare butt he wanted to assure everyone that a lot of bees die this time of year so no one should be concerned,but cautioned others to not try this at home. No worries! I won't be trying this at home or anywhere else.
