(#2) Hiker Alex Bestler
In May 2016, Alex Bestler chose the wrong day to go on a morning hike in Usery Mountain Park in Arizona. While he was walking, a swarm of aggressive bees attacked him, apparently unprovoked. The 23-year-old was stung more than 1,000 times. Onlookers tried to help Bestler, but couldn't get near enough to him to assist. Authorities finally had to use a utility vehicle to get him to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
