someone2040 Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Ergh... I'm usually decent with gross kind've stuff. But that... just Ergh. Not like I'm going to puke if I watch it, but it's just really disturbing to me. But I agree... if I ever saw a Centipede that big... I think I would back away.

Professor-J Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 I'm not watching that, I saw the giant centipede eating mouse thing, then I saw the mouse and the centipedes antenna. No These things arn't real. If they are, WHY!? I hate these things more than spiders now. It's supposed to mice eating centipedes not the other way round.

Asuma Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Camel spider is a hoax Picture 1 Picture 2 Infomation As for the centipede. That thing looks gross. Not as deadly that the camel spider, but I wouldn't want to cross one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as deadly that the camel spider, but I wouldn't want to cross one. Playing with perspective. See the guy's sleeve to the right of picture 1? Yeh. He's holding it. It's big, but not huge.

I don't know if that's an argument against me, or just accepting defeat. If it's trying to prove me wrong did you even read it? "Solifugae are the subject of many myths and exaggerations about their size, speed, behaviour, appetite, and lethality. They are not especially large, the biggest having a legspan of perhaps 5 inches, and although they are fast on land compared to other invertebrates, the fastest can run perhaps 10 miles per hour, a common running speed for many humans. Members of this order of Arachnidae apparently have no venom and do not spin webs." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know they don't but I'm saying it would be more than capable if it wanted to. It's not like a small centipede should be able to eat a mouse.

Koray Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Okay you are all confused. Camel Spiders are REAL. It's just the picture of the soldier holding a two foot one that is fake. Yes they are real, no they are not that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they are real, no they are not that big. A regual site (as opposed to the hoax sites) says the soldier is holding two. The bottom one eating the top one. (...?) http://www.hoax-slayer.com/camel-spider-image.html You can pretty much tell which one is which, also noting that the soldier is holding the top one with plyers o_O So its logical that its just two of them, many people mistakig it for one large creature Smarty: -Camel spiders, or wind scorpions, are not actually spiders. They are in fact Solifugids and, like spiders, they belong to the class Arachnida. -The creatures are completely non-venomous. -They are silent. -They do not eat camels alive or dead. They mostly eat other arthropods. -Some eat lizards and, possibly, birds and small mammals. -They do run very fast for Arachnids, but certainly not as fast as 25 mph. -Solifugids are found world wide, although they are more common in drier regions such as Iraq. -Their bodies range in size from 25mm to 75mm in length. The outstretched leg span may reach 150mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tentril Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 -Solifugids are found world wide, although they are more common in drier regions such as Iraq. I doubt you'ld find one in the US or UK unless you lived in a desert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
