Why would he eat them? Just killing them for fun? Bees are awesome. This upset me. ):

They taste very good. Like a cross between ants and katydids

There's no need to eat them alive. It would be humane to freeze them first, so they don't have any pain. Besides, this guy only ate them to show off.

They're very sensitive to cold so they'd only be in pain for a longer time.

To my knowledge freezing is the most humane way to euthanize insects. (Except for an intracoelomic injection of Pentobarbital. But most people have that stuff & a syringe at home, or know where to inject the drug.)

They might feel discomfort, but mich like a human, will fall asleep before dying.

They wouldn't feel pain if we froze them? Smashing them in a fraction of a second seems more humane than freezing them imo.
