That's awful.  Hopefully the marauding hornets will get their comeuppance from killer bees or fire ants.

reminds me of the 3 418 hornets defending the base from the 68 squad hoard yesterday, that was a massacre too. :D

Notice that the hornets didn't actually take the base?

They just killed the barracks and porked the rest of the base.

50 giant hornets wiped out by 3 lazy starlings. News at 11.
The circle of life is a wonderful thing. Bet the hornets love domestic bees..the bee keeper doenst design the hive for defence but natural bees do.

doesnt take much skill to kill prop engine fighters with a 262...fly a P40B w/ same odds and then talk trash :lol

Killer bees are no match for Japanese Giant Hornets, IMO...I saw this show last year...scary stuff

I have a crappy dial-up connection and can't seem to save the file.  The buffering is driving me mad, any suggestions.

The outcome of the hornet attack depends on the amount of  the attackers. If there's only few hornets attacking bees, they will loose.

No matter how many bees die, they'll begin covering hornets with their own bodies. Then the temperature begins rising around the hornet , and it will die sooner than bees due to the heat. Bees can stand higher temperatures than hornets.

But this works  only when there's few hornets attacking. 30 of them may be too much for the bees nest of the size shown in the movie.
