Prince William’s longtime friend, Sunjay Kapur, has died at age 53 after swallowing a bee, which had triggered a fatal heart attack.
The billionaire businessman and chairman of global car parts giant Sona Comstar collapsed during a polo match in England on Thursday, the Mirror reports.
Kapur, who is the former husband of Bollywood superstar Karisma Kapoor, was stung by a bee on the mouth, which subsequently triggered anaphylactic shock that caused his heart to stop, the outlet added.

Oh my... that is one of things you would never expect.
He swallowed the bee to sting the fly
But I don’t know why he swallowed the fly
I’d be living in a bubble !
Prince Harry got stung by a B also. Named Megan.
If only he’d been wearing his mask!
Well I’ll bee damned!
Maybe they shouldn’t have added that — that’s not really how anaphylaxis works. Although it is true that the heart always stops at the very end of any fatal incident.
Dr. Joseph Dolan: You know, it's a shame about Ed.
Fletch: Oh, it was. Yeah, it was really a shame. To go so suddenly like that.
Dr. Joseph Dolan: He was dying for years.
Fletch: Sure, but the end was very — very sudden.
Dr. Joseph Dolan: He was in intensive care for eight weeks.
Fletch: Yeah, but I mean the very end, when he died, that was extremely sudden.
Mossad operation. Has to be.
“Life”
All cliche’s apply. You just never know.
(I scanned and all jokes appeared to be taken /s ;-) )
Such a tragedy and now his young children won’t have a father.
All the money in the world won’t protect you from the Grim Reaper.
I was on my way to the Little Orleans bike week thing, just got on I68 when a wasp flew into my t shirt and proceeded to sting the hell outta me repeatedly.
Braked to a rapid halt and start ripping my vest and shirt off right there alongside the interstate.
I did not care who was “ enjoying the view”.
Just wanted that angry little stabby punk off of me.
Someone that highly allergic should have had an epipen or something at hand.
My wife ran over a yellow jacket nest while mowing the lawn, she was stung over 50 times before she reached the house and as a final insult she was zapped hours later by one hidden in her clothes when she was doing the laundry.
Why did Massad arrange this?
That was a stinging remark...
Killed by swallowing a bee during a polo match.
Nothing like that ever happened in my neighborhood.
Ugh! I had nearly the same thing happen to me when I was ten, riding my Schwin with the banana seat, racing with my mouth wide open Swallowed it but didn’t get stung. Nasty.
Ping
Typically, anaphylactic reaction could cause the tongue to swell to the size of a “basketball”. Person can’t breathe. Has to have a “field” tracheotomy pronto. Not so sure it would cause heart attack but more likely suffocation.
Not a doctor.
Perhaps he’ll die!
Oh wait ...
