QUOTE "I was amazed," says Braddy. "Whenever I’ve shown the picture to people they’re equally amazed. ... When you work out how big this beast was you’re staggered by the size of it." A claw fossil is found which the existence of an extinct eight foot long (bigger than a mini-cooper) water-based scorpion is extrapolated. http://www.nature.com/news/2007/071120/ful...s.2007.272.html Now, that's a cool mother f**king bug. |

I mean, it's f**king huge! Yeah. When I was younger I was really into cryptozoology - despite the fact I was a dumb little kid, I never believed any of it. I just thought monsters were bad ass. Shit like this makes me want to find monsters. |
