TRENDING NOW: Ontario Premier Doug Ford swallows bee during press conference

The premier of Ontario is trending across the nation, but not for his recent announcements or policies.

Doug Ford swallowed a bee whole during a live press conference in Ontario yesterday, Aug. 12.

The scene, which shows the bee buzzing around Ford's lips before he swallows it, was broadcast across the nation last night when it was captured on camera.

"This is going to be replayed over and over again," Ford said after he swallowed it.

"Man, he went right down the hatch… I'm going to be howling tonight watching the tape," Ford said.
