North Bay cyclist reportedly dies after swallowing bee while warming up for race

FYI Both of your links go back to FR.

Please post the correct link my friend. I need to share the story with my riding buddies. Thanks 👍

Ridiculous. No one dies after swallowing a bee. It will just get digested by your stomach acids. Who writes these stupid articles.

I had a bee go into my mouth and sting my tongue on a ride a few years ago. The sting made my tongue very painful for the rest of the day. It hurt every time my tongue moved, you would probably never believe how much your tongue moves, even when you aren’t doing anything.

You don't even have to be allergic if it stings your airway on the way down.

Why would a mere sting kill you? Or you mean some kind of a rupture?
