Another big giant spider thread!!!

[Razorguns]

OMFG! This bastard makes our other EF spider look like a Muppet Baby!!!

This was found by GI's in Iraq. Apparently this is a Camel Spider (not usually this big). Maybe some of the military guys can know more about this thing. They say some can run up to 25mph, and make a high pitched screaming noise! Sounds fun.

Imagine THAT crawling up on you while in bed! No wonder no one immigrates to the middle east!!!

You do not want to be bit by one of those fuckers! I believe the camel spider's venom eats flesh.

I think I read they migrate to Toronto during these months and crawl on people's faces in their sleep.

No, National Geographic says they hang out in Jersey and jump on your bare chest when you're taking out the trash.
