Fun fact: bees don't really do anything "for the queen." It's really more like, "for our sisters!" If the queen isn't providing offspring well enough for the hive, or has some other matter wrong with her, the hive will not hesitate to kick her out and raise a new queen to take her place.
You'll probably enjoy the movie Annihilation-which is about a 'shimmer' kind of like Wandavision hex, but by alien crash. DNA starts getting spliced together and everything merging in a freakishly psychedelic way that looks kinda like the vid
So I get why bees are important and we should protect them, but as some who has had a lifelong fear of bees (no allergy, thankfully, just fear), seeing this type of crap makes my primitive monkey brain want to grab a flamethrower.
Growing up we had one of the largest known honeybee hives in the state (we werenāt allowed to relocate the hive, it was protected and still is to this day). My parents were trying to relocate the bees due to my PTSD from stepping on a ground bee (yellow jackets most likely) hive at a very young age and I had a true phobia of bees and wasps.
There's a scientific term for that! It's a form of synchronicity called The Baader-Meinhof phenomenon basically what it means is you've been asleep for a long time now, we miss you. Please wake up, we don't know what you're seeing in there but it isn't real, please just open your eyes
Some people can achieve this effect with a swift slap to their cellulite. I believe the gyrating known as "twerking" achieves a similar affect when searching for a mate. It's a type of hypnosis I speculate.
I like how a lot of nature protects itself with the motto: "just be as weird as possible, then they'll leave us alone"
Works for humans too. Quite effective
āThatāsā¦unusual. Fuck that, not the risk Iām willing to take today.ā
it makes it look like a large animal
Well, I for one am not fucking with that bee hive after they do this alien tech shit at me
I mean Iād stay the fuck away from that.
It's so fascinating but so horrifying it's amazing I honestly just man I have to agree 110%
Prejudices are what keeps us alive.
putyourdickinthere
This so much fun to watch safely on my phone and away from the lovely bees protecting their clan, for the Queen!

Hey everybody, we have a predator, DO THE WAVE!!!
bee one: "hello"
this has me thinkingā¦ maybe we scared god off when we started doing the wave in stadiums. maybe thatās why everything is so bleak.
It really does look like when people are trying to start the wave at a sporting event but just can't quite get it organized enough to keep going.
Works on me. Looks eerie and ominous
An organized army able to communicate. Fear their capabilities.

Those are Rorschach bees.
Iām not locked in here with you. YOUāRE LOCKED IN HERE WITH BEES!
They already reverse engineered the camera
Is that their real name or a joke about a Rohrshach test ?
Flashing bees means take a 180 full speed into your nearest tree as soon as possible.
Hell no. 180 full speed until you no longer hear buzzing.
halo shield recharge noise
BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP... WOMMMMMMPPP
Yeah Iād stay away from a shimmering, moving mass of buzzing, too.
Also known as the 'Fuck off matey' signal
This is called "the wave" we humans do it as well at large sports gameys
Maybe the bees will start chanting seven nation army
Thatās clearly a key item
"Interact with this to advance the puzzle"
Looks like a force field...very creative!
Curious question though, how do they know how to do this in unison though..... Getting "300ā spartan style vibes from this.
The same way that someone knows to move when pushed in a crowd.
Same way you know when it's your turn to do the wave at a stadium
Yeah, I want to know if this was set off by a nearby predator or if itās something they just do sporadically in warning??
Bees are amazing!
SĆŗper simple animals
That is both cool as hell and also gave me nasty goosebumps
If I saw this IRL I would think I was tripping. šµāš«
Itās loading
You donāt see that every day.
So he bee movie wasnāt lying
Holy shit, it wasnāt.
itchiness intensifies
āPredator coming. Do the waveā
š that's cool
Neat.
Like Wakanda shields
It's like a visual representation of my guts after eating Taco Bell.
Username checks out - he knows the the truth
How do they do that?
If the guy next to you moves you move
Never been part of a wave in a stadium?
I thought they did that to cool down the hive but being an Oceanographer I will defer expertise
In The Bee Movie they do it to help land a plane. Iām flabbergasted itās real! The bullseye shape and all.
Big Annihilation energy
but, i dont get it, why would they do that? how does that protects them from predators
Bro, yesterday a bee stung my tongue, and I was screaming in pain for 10 mins.
Stop trying to suck off bees!!
Gotta bee careful
Do you happen to be the impoverished son of a former hotel owner who likes telling stories to niece and nephew?
I need to know more. Gotta be a story there!
Wow, that's awesome š
This new Predator Prequel is lit!
just want to give him a big hug
I want to play teraria now.
This reminds me of the Pom Pom routines that dance teams do.
It's fascinating and scary at the same time
Well, I ain't touching it
Works on me
Hit it with a sonic arrow and get some hacksilver.
Well thatāsā¦unsettling.
Diong the wave!
ape together strong
Emergence go brr
Can someone ELI5 why this gives me chills? Evolution-arily whatās going on here?
Makes me feel itchy
mildlydisturbing
Theyāre doing the wave
This is the grossest thing ever but kinda cool I guess
If they made a delicious honey filled hive look gross, mission accomplished.
Someone get these bees to a sports stadium! The wave is gonna be lit!
Idk why this is making me itch lolā¦ yet I still continue to look at it š
The original Rorschach
...... š¬
Nah they're just watching the world cup and doing crowd stuff
It works. I just wet myself.
Well, that'd keep me away. Yikes!
So I get why bees are important and we should protect them, but as some who has had a lifelong fear of bees (no allergy, thankfully, just fear), seeing this type of crap makes my primitive monkey brain want to grab a flamethrower.
Well, its working on me. I sure as fuck wouldn't want to touch it.
Terrifying
It's the 'wave' thing we do during sports games!
It also displays what times the movie will bee playing
THAT is fascinating!! We have raised Honey Bees since I was 5, and have NEVER seen this occur. How is that possible???
Predator incoming..
Looks like rgb effect on keypress
Imagine being a caveman and seeing this
every few months i learn something insane about bees
āLook, Steve, you canāt just start the shimmer whenever you want. Thatās why we have the sign up sheet. Youāre throwing everyone off.ā
It's mezmerizing!
Is this from āLife in the Undergrowth?ā
Is plan 'B' still just stinging the shit outta you?
this is basically nature's version of a gaming keyboard
Protect against my flamethrower
reminds me of the first sinspawn in final fantasy 10 when zanarkand is getting ripped apart
It works great when youāre trying to create a landing zone for an aircraft carrying tons of stolen flowers from Pasadena
For a cooler version, use a rock
Giant honeybees give giant flavored honey
I really want to know how this evolved. Where was nature like "yeah, so let's add a shimmer gene" that worked good enough to get passed on.
Woah
Obviously alien tech given to them
The understated power of stigmergy
This gives me the same satisfaction as when you burn the loose fuzzies off your socks
Spartans what is your profession
Looks like in the Powder Game when u put 2 sources of virus near each other and they fight in a repeating pattern
Argh! They're defending themselves somehow!
Didn't stop Winnie the pooh definitely won't stop me
Is the area where it spreads out from the queenās location though?
Thinking bee! Thinking bee!

I'm intimidated, you win, bees.
If video games have taught me anything, this thing probably has some sweet loot in it and you should kick it immediately.
Huh, so the bee movie did draw that airport beacon scene from something š¤£.
that looks like a highlighted item you have to interact with to progress the plot
Growing up we had one of the largest known honeybee hives in the state (we werenāt allowed to relocate the hive, it was protected and still is to this day). My parents were trying to relocate the bees due to my PTSD from stepping on a ground bee (yellow jackets most likely) hive at a very young age and I had a true phobia of bees and wasps.
why do i wanna stick my hand in that pile of bees
Wow thatās so cool
So cool
Earlier today I watched
There's a scientific term for that! It's a form of synchronicity called The Baader-Meinhof phenomenon basically what it means is you've been asleep for a long time now, we miss you. Please wake up, we don't know what you're seeing in there but it isn't real, please just open your eyes
Swarm shields up!
Reminds me of soldier wasps, but I'd be less likely to shit my pants here
Bee RGB
That is so fascinating for real
That ripple effect is like one breathing giant thing.
Howw
So like what motion is each individual bee achieving to accomplish this effect? Like are they dipping their thoraxes or something like that?
The power of a union.
Animation and CGI element at play in nature. Hard to imagine that someone hadn't seen this in the wild and adapted it into their work.
Still gonna eat all of them
ok but what if theyre just giving the tourists a show
Nah, its just a glitch.
Ahh.. Steppenwolf
Why does this work? Does the movement just show predators "there's a lot of us, you sure?" Or is it something else?
Just learned this now
Pooh's gonna tear that shit up.
Yo why no sound? Bet it sounds pretty awesome
If you think about it, bees are the first natural simps
Some people can achieve this effect with a swift slap to their cellulite. I believe the gyrating known as "twerking" achieves a similar affect when searching for a mate. It's a type of hypnosis I speculate.
Wellā¦ that would scare the crap out of me
Iāve never seen that! Itās incredibly weird looking!!
Please dear god donāt let them evolve
Huh, I think I saw this in the bee movie once.
Someone could make a fortune if you could get them to flash a Nike logo
That's really fucking cool holy crap!
"I can still make the whole place āØshimmerāØ"
Welp that works for me
You know what else protects the hive?
How do they know to do it? Can they feel the bees next to them move their wings?
If this was a game, Iād punch it
Well I, for one, am not fucking with that hive so Iād say itās pretty effective.
I've never seen that. It's cool.
Iām just wondering how they āknowā who starts it. It starts from different places each time.
Yeah... fuck that.
Mesmerizing!
omg
So, it wasnāt the acid
Nanotechnology
One of the coolest things I think Iāve seen from the animal kingdom. Bees are fucking awesome
Reminds me of the honey in Monster Hunterā¦
How excitement looks irl
Legendary item
I just wanna get high and watch that shit for an hour or two
"We're Legion, we're very organised, we're going to kick your ass if you mess with us."
This needs a Hans Zimner soundtrack
Oddlysatisfying**
The visual effect remembers me on Game Of Life
So thatās how Barry got the plane to land
Among bees it is known as āLa Olaā
