That's untrue, if they wanted us dead we wouldn't swim in the ocean. Most shark attack victims die from the blood loss from a bite than the shark actually biting/ripping them apart to death. That's because sharks can only truly know what something is when it bites it, it's called an exploritory bite, if it was a full on attack bite there's a good chance that person is dead in a second. And no, they aren't stupid, unlike most animals, they don't associate humans with food, you probably got that from the fact that most of their brain is used for smell and detection, their ability to detect movement comes from pores on their snouts and their ability to sniff out blood in the water comes from a really good sense of smell and those pores (they could find one drop of blood in an olympic swimming pool).Vrach said:
Yes, your more likly to die in a car crash going to the beach then from a shark attack. Most bites are exploritory. I still wouldn't want to get into the water with most big sharks and if it was a Great White I only have one thing on my mind, get to the fucking bottom!OceanSapphire said:
Hey, at least it doesn't wave around red and white flagssimilar.squirrel said:No f-ing way. That thing probably voted Jobbik.The_ModeRazor said:For me, well, I really fucking hate spiders, but I'm more scared of a T-Rex. Shame it's long extinct.
For something a little more real (that I could possibly meet, since ************ also lives in Hungary), you don't want this thing charging at you:
Knew there was another reason I'm glad for not living in Hungary any more.
But let's keep this topic free of politics.
I (mis?) understand that they are classed as a more deadly creature than a black widow because although the venom is less dangerous they will charge a human (!) and bite multiple times versus the black widow biting once and in self defence.Ascarus said:Funnel Web Spider. I find spiders to be utterly fascinating, but i never want to see the creature below unless that creature is behind several inches of glass. This thing hisses ... hisses!.Blatherscythe said:
that's just creepy.
edit: wrong tags!!
*shudder* the only spider I'm kinda okay with and it still freaks me out. Well, huntsmans and daddy long legs. but daddy long legs are like the dame cook of the spider world so they don't count.RhombusHatesYou said:
A Camel Spider with its leg span of 12 cm isn't the biggest thing I';ve ever seen, naturally, but I just can't get past the fact that it's body is the size of a mouse, I can't deal with that shit, especially with that face it has.
They don't exactly have hands to feel something trying to figure it out, do they? They lightly (to them anyway) bite the object or animal in question to figure out what it is, they let go if they know it isn't food (usually with humans and garbage) but if they think it's food they clamp down harder.Vrach said:How exactly does that not make them stupid?Blatherscythe said:
Thylacines (other then ty the tasmainian tiger) and whatever the hell the guy who started this threads avatar is its creeping me out but seriously thylacines are like dogs who are also cheetahs with razor teeth and hunt in packs, there basically velociraptors and they scare the crap outta me (search for one on google images i dare you)
finally i said this as third post on page on page one, people should check this little fella out, apparently jack the riper was a honey badger, fact.Enemy Of The State said:
Hmmm, how about anything that can kill me? Venomous snakes and spiders, sharks, piranhas, bears, komodo dragons, you name it.
