The first time it stings you, its stinger comes off, usually stuck in your skin. A bee's sting has barbs at its tip, so that it cannot be pulled out as easily. When the bee frees itself from the sting, much of its organs are pulled out with it, and so the bee will soon die.

A worker honey bee's sting is barbed, so after she has thrust it into the victim she cannot pull it back out. When the bee pulls away, the sting remains behind, together with the venom sac and often part of the intestine. The resulting damage is fatal to the bee. A queen bee has a smooth sting so she can withdraw the sting and re-use it. Drones (male bees) don't have a sting.

A sting is what makes a honeybee harmful, but they won't sting unless they are provoked. Only female honeybees have stingers, are workers, and take up most of the population in the hive. But when a worker honeybee stings someone, it's fatal for them: After a worker bee stings someone, their stinger is deeply attached to the person; then when the honeybee tries to fly away, their abdomen gets torn out and it kills them.
It is very possible for a yellow jacket to sting a person twice. The stinger does not get stuck in it's victim like a bee's.
Bee venom is pretty much the same from one kind of bee to another. It is a matter of how much venom is in each sting. If you are a person who is violently allergic to insect sting venom, a single honeybee sting can be fatal. If you are unbothered by bee sting (many people seemingly are) a half-dozen or more stings may have no major effect.
