Thirty thousand bees attacked a Texas couple in Pantego.
The woman was out exercising one of her Shetland ponies when the swarm appeared.
She ran from them, into the pool, but was stung every time she came up for air.
Eventually she ran for the house, where her boyfriend opened the door for her.
He received about fifty stings, while she received over two hundred, their dog was also stung multiple times.
Both of her ponies and three hens were not so lucky, dying from the amount of stings they took.
Firefighters used special gear and foam to clear the bees out.
The bees will be tested to see if they had become Africanized, as seems likely.
