Fake, is my opinion, as for Jen's spiders, I concur.
Just a moment ago I noticed a 5c size spider crawling across the kitchen floor, when I smooshed it with a tissue to kill it and flush it down the loo, it EXPANDED and dropped about 25 BABIES all over the place, DIDNT die after multiple squishes and then I had to chase down all its little babies and squash them all too!
Scumbag little arachnid!
To the MORTEIN CANS! AWAY!

OMG i would be out the door thay can have the house and all the furniture in it ewwwwwwwww
Can you imagine if you were asleep in bed, this little 8 legged pirate climbed onto your head and you swatted it in your sleep? Instant Spider blizzard, not good!
Arhhhhhh dont tell me that i will never sleep again i got this email the other day it freaked me out you can play with this spider and pull and drag him around by the legs and make him big and feed him bugs etc...... ewwwwwww my son thinks its awsome it amused him for 2 hours check it out http://www.onemotion.com/flash/spider/
OK boys n girls, what about Titanoboa....they're at least 45 feet in length. If they took a piccie of one of them in the same fashion, what would you say??. Fake or real??.
I'd like to see these pics put under the scrutiny of image analysis experts.
It's a large snake from the Paleocene Epoch....about 60-55Ma. They found 8 or so near complete skeletons of the snake in a coal mine in Colombia. The skeletons they found were of several snakes around the 45-50 foot mark and would've weighed over a ton in weight when alive.
The Chicago Zoological Society has a standing reward for over 50 years now for genuine evidence of a snake of 33 feet or over, it has never been claimed.
What they require is a skeleton,a skin or a photo, but I don't think a photo is classed as evidence any more for the reason of this thread.
I'm not disputing that....what I'm saying is...what if it wasn't fake.
I'm not convinced either way....that's why I said it should be looked at by experts. Whether it's been posted on a photo faking site or not. If it is a fake then someone should come forward, or the newspaper responsible for posting it as being real should have it's knuckles rapped for false reporting.
I think its MUCH more than 4, Marki. But its also not an urban myth, its true. I just dont wanna know how many.
Cheers

Well if I didn't wake up whilst I was chowing down on a spider they can't taste all that bad . Hmmmm perhaps I should start putting a side dish next to my bed before I go to sleep. Aracnid, chips and salad has a certain ring to it don't you think? Still it could be marketed as a cure for snoring.
The internet is publishing fake photo's everyday, if gullible people choose to believe them, it just shows that some people will believe in anything
There was that stupid photo of the crocodile that had been eaten by a snake,and it had eaten its way out through snakes stomach
Nobody seemed to have any idea that snakes eat their prey head first, and a crocodile cannot open its mouth in a confined space.
A human can stop a crocodile opening its mouth quite easely, but you try to open its mouth when it is closed, no way.

The closest anyone has come to finding a snake of that length was a reticulated python around 28-29ft.
Earlier this summer there was a brown snake hunting for frogs around our dam who must have been a grandaddy. I worked out that he was close to four and a half feet long.
That's the biggest I've ever seen around here and that's way big enough.
I love spiders never kill one unless it's a red back, huntsman inside get picked up and taken out to the garden
Daddy long legs sitting in the corners usually gets sprayed with Mortien my grown up girls are still afraid of them.
Spiders catch flies and mossies so they provide a service
Just for Jen
Yup! Love spiders myself Trev. Have no kids around here so even the red backs go unmolested. As you say, they provide a valuable service. They're also one of the most fascinating critters ever built.
Never ceases to amaze me that in a country chockablock full of flamin' flies that everyone runs around knocking down cobwebs and killing spiders.
