Forget the Alduin, Werebears and Vampires, they are mere peasants when it comes to this incredibly overpowered Skyrim NPC, that we all somehow missed for 15 years.
No question, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is one of the most iconic video games of all time and not just in the RPG realm. Despite originally releasing in 2011, to this day, whenever a new fantasy RPG is released, there’s a good chance that it will be compared to the legendary fantasy RPG from Bethesda.
The popularity of Skyrim is why Bethesda has released it on every console generation since, and yet, gamers still can’t get enough, and for good reason, it’s a fantastic game. So with all the countless releases, it makes sense that millions of gamers have ventured into the world of Tamriel and have seen all there is to see, right? Apparently not.
Yes, that’s right. It seems that the most powerful NPC is a bee, at least, pound for pound.
“I’ve heard bees are hard workers, but this is ridiculous,” exclaimed Redditor bewilderingkitty, sharing a clip of a bee carrying a bucket, which is probably thousands of times bigger than its size.

As the player approaches the OP bee, the game asks if they want to take the bucket. Hell no! I wouldn't be taking s*** off that steroid bee! I don’t care if this is a glitch or not; if that bee wants my candy, it can take it!
“They don’t call 'em busy bees for nothing,” replied Relevant-Factor-2400.
“Please don't distract him, he has somewhere to bee,” joked Dracula's Bride.
“Wait until that bee gets a crossbow,” warned copropnuma.
“That bee is swole,” declared Own_Jeweler_8548.
However, this bee is not a typical glitch. A bee caused a glitch during the development of the game, resulting in the cart at the beginning of Skyrim flying and spinning everywhere. The developers at Bethesda loved this glitch so much that this OP bee was officially made into the game. As explained in this article from PC Gamer in 2021.
Regardless of its lore, if I crossed paths with this NPC in Tamriel, I’d just leave him bee.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is out now on PC, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch across multiple generations. It’s also included with Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus, at the time of writing.
