Riyadh – Saudi Zouhair Amine Qattani has failed in his bid to set a new world record for most bees covering his body.
He was hoping to break the current world record of 63.7 kilos and enter the Guinness Book.
Qattani managed to last for one hour and 20 minutes, covering his body with bees weighing 49 kgs – the equivalent to 343,000 bees, according to Khaleej Times.
He said that he decided to postpone the attempt as he fell sick while trying to set a new world record.
“I had a stomach ache and breathing problems and could not move my feet”, he said in a statement reported by Almowaten.
