Good Luck.
Being attacked by killer bees usually only happens in horror movies or nightmares. For couple in Texas, nightmare turned into reality on Wednesday night. Kristen Beauregard, 44, and her boyfriend were in their garden exercising their two ponies. Ms Beauregard told reporters that everything was normal until one of ponies started kicking and jumping. animal was very frightened about something. Suddenly she saw dark cloud in sky and she realised it was swarm of bees. She said: "It got all dark, like it was night time, there were so many bees." bees attacked couple and their horses.

Luckily they had swimming pool, so couple jumped in. Ms Beauregard was stung over 200 times by bees. Her boyfriend counted over 50 stings on his arms, neck and head. pool probably saved their lives because bees could not attack them under water. Kristen explained how terrifying it was. She said: "We were trying to stand up in water but every time we stuck our heads out for air, they would cover us and start stinging us. We were trying to breathe and they were stinging us on face and on nose." Unfortunately, two ponies could not escape from bees. They got stung thousands of times. One died on farm, the other passed away at vet's clinic later that evening.
