Bees attack more if you run, you’re supposed to make yourself look as large as possible to scare them away.

I’m already at least a hundred times larger than the average bee, how much larger do you think I’d have to be?

A bee weights about a tenth of gram so that’s ten grams and is 12.7mm long so 1.27m.

Math checks out.

Can confirm that I am at least 1.27m tall and weigh over 10 grams.

That means your BMI is at least 0.006199628022319.

But how will this help me against a swarm of bees?

Can you please get back on topic here?

Why are you always bringing up the past?

Don't forget that the snout is the most sensitive part of the bee. If they confront you, an open palm to the snout is sure to drive them off

In today's car-centric cities they have to drive.

There's other modes of transportation.

And humans weigh more than 10 grams

Mac already said that and I proved it, why are you bringing it up again?
