Yes it is. If we ignore the case where the victim is hypersensitive to bee venom, where one sting can prove fatal, it is not possible to say how many stings it would take to kill a person. People have been known to die after being stung a few hundred times, and there have been people who have survived after receiving thousands of stings. A dangerous level is considered to be around two stings per kilogram of body weight.

Anyone who has been stung by a large number of bees would need hospital treatment.
