Bees swarmed around hunters that were harvesting their honey.

Footage shows hundreds of bees flying around the two locals wearing helmets with mesh nets covering their faces as protection in Chanthaburi province, Thailand on March 26.

The workers with extremely dangerous jobs climbed up tall trees with a height of at least 15ft to reach the branches where the hives were situated.

One of the workers Kritsada Wapiko said: 'I wanted to send the video of us on the job to our customers.'

Bee hunters are at risk of receiving multiple bee stings, which can be painful and, in some cases, trigger severe allergic reactions in individuals who are allergic to bee venom.

They also often need to work at significant heights, such as on roofs, trees, or tall structures, to access bee colonies. This increases the risk of falls and injuries.
