I don’t know if there is a creature in existence that I am more simultaneously amazed by and ready to murder at a moment’s notice. It’s the equivalent of seeing a Van Gogh for the first time and being irresistibly driven to hack it apart with a machete.

The opposite is also pretty brutal. Japanese honey bees defense against hornets is to surround them and cook them with body heat and suffocate them at the same time. They set a trap at the entrance of a hive, wait for a wasp to come in and then about 100 of them surround it and start vibrating. This causes the temperature to rise and the carbon dioxide level to rise. The combination of higher temperature and bad air kills the hornet.
They typically do this to a hornet scout, who gives off a particular pheromone that alerts the bees. If the scout dies, it cannot go for reinforcements. If the scout does manage to get away, then the bees are fucked, as this video you mention yet do not provide a link for probably depicts.

My kingdom for a small pair of scissors.
Little flying tanks.
Check out the video where 30 Japanese wasps kill an entire nest of 30,000 honey bees, it’s fucking brutal
