This is unbelievable - I mean that both hyperbolically in that the post and the behavior described is awesome and edifying - but I also mean it literally insofar as I can neither believe the lengths human beings will go for honey, nor the extent of the structures bee's can construct.

Do you know by chance what the honey hunters do with the honey they collect? Is this for personal or local use, or is it being collected for resale as exotic honey?
