Beekeeper She Ping broke a world record by covering himself with over 300,000 bees Wednesday in Chongqing, China.
The previous record was held by another Chinese beekeeper from Jiangxi province named Ruan Liangming, who covered himself with 59 pounds (26.8 kilograms) of bees in 2008. She Ping broke the record with 73 pounds (33.1 kilograms), approximately 331,000 bees.
Take a look at photos of She Ping and his bees below:
