A video of an expert effectively moving a huge beehive without any protective gear goes around the internet, leaving internet users in awe.
The now-viral video features TexasBeeWorks’ Erika Thompson as she removes a huge beehive without harming them or getting stung.
In the video, Thompson, who is a master beekeeper, approaches the beehive without any protective gear.
According to Thompson’s post, the bees have lived in the yard for almost 2 years. Thompson also said the family initially wanted to call an exterminator, but decided to save the bees by contacting them instead.

The bees had lived in this garden shed for over two years. The owner wanted to call an exterminator, but the family who lived here wanted to save the bees so they called me! #save the bees pic.twitter.com/Mj5fe8IHJD

I have a lot of respect and admiration for people who know what they are doing, be it beekeeping, plumbing, or nuclear physics.

How exactly do you become yourself? Where is the peace found at this time. How do you make it look very normal and easy? Lots of respect. I am amazed.

It is completely unbelievable.
A typical response would be to buy nine raid cans and water them down.
Then call an exterminator.
But in reality bees are a lot like cattle.
They can be managed.
It’s a valuable find for her, and it will help pollinate thousands of plants.

It’s just amazing and you won’t even be covered or anything. I wish I had real workers like this when I was a manager LOL

I feel like she has superpowers. The immediate horror I felt upon even seeing the video of her lifting the planks is so deep in my psyche that I just can’t imagine having another response, let alone the apparent happiness she seems to have? !

I’m sorry, but I think this woman is a literal saint. God bless her for doing this work. I know its importance, but I never could. ??

I just don’t understand. I encountered three beehives in the wild and each time I was stung and had to flee.
Still, she opens the roof of their house and grabs handles and nothing. Maybe the magic is real.

They are the coldest honey bees.
She used a smokehouse at the start of the video which makes them even cooler.
She is a professional beekeeper and as such, in this field, she knows better than you or me.

This video makes me incredibly anxious. Please wear a protective suit!
