The bees will be clustered onto either a UC ANR T-shirt or banner.<\/p>\n<p>The administrator will have to overcome a fear after having had numerous unpleasant encounters with bees, including when she jumped off a rock wall as a child and landed on a bee hive, receiving 11 stings on her neck and face.<\/p>\n<p>Most people are afraid that bees want to sting them, Gary said, but they don\u2019t if they\u2019re well-fed and are near powerful synthetic queen bee odors \u2014 pheromones \u2014 which pacify them.<\/p>\n<p>Gary holds the Guinness Book of World Records mark for the most bees \u2014 109 \u2014 in his mouth.
