“I can’t tell you how much it hurt.” Carl Amos, 81, was mowing his lawn last month when he heard bees that would soon become a swarm. He was eventually rescued by strangers who passed by and saw him struggling.
But Amos could barely see, typing the wrong combination so many times he’d have to wait at least an hour until he could try again. He didn’t know about the feature that would let him call 911 without typing the passcode.They stung him like that for three hours, as Amos tried his best to stay calm and stave off life-threatening injuries from the insects, known as Africanized bees. He was eventually rescued by strangers who passed by and saw him struggling.
But first, he knew he needed to cover himself up as much as possible. He pulled the sun hat as far down on his forehead as it would go. He had a napkin in his back pocket that he reached for, tore apart and stuffed into his ears. The bees still weren’t letting up. By then, Amos felt close to resigning, out of ideas for how to get help.Around 1 p.m., workers from the nearby Burford Corporation, a machinery company, were passing by on their way back from lunch.
Shortly after, Amos was taken to a Norman, Okla., hospital, where he had hip surgery. Medical staff took out hundreds of bee stingers from his body using tweezers.
