BARE. HANDS. BEES.
When faced with a swarm of bees, many people would run away. Or, set fire to anything and everything near the bees — and then run away. But not everyone is Nima Alizadeh.
Alizadeh, a 23-year-old Torontonian, saw a post on Bunz Trading Zone — a local Facebook group — seeking help for some wayward bees.
The post, written by Ryan Jordan, said there was about a hundred bees on a fire hydrant, apparently without a queen.
Bunz has more than 50,000 members who list items for trade but there's also the occasional post seeking help for odd tasks — like moving bees.

"He asked if anyone had any knowhow or knew something about bees — I didn’t," Alizadeh told BuzzFeed Canada. But he didn't let that stop him.

Another Bunz user had suggested transporting the bees in a cardboard box, so Alizadeh showed up up with a small one in tow. "I laid the box next to it and just started barehand shoveling a few bees at a time into the box," he said.
To repeat: THIS MAN PICKED UP HANDFULS OF BEES WITH HIS HAND AND CASUALLY PUT THEM IN A BOX.
"I just dove right in. I was never really afraid of getting stung," he said. "They’re just crawling on you, buzzing. They’re really docile."
