I saw a giant one crawling through my campsite near Oolagah, Oklahoma, maybe 30 years ago. I sprayed it with insecticide and it did kill it tho it took a while.

Mine was just about exactly a foot long probably about the same length as the one pictured but it was much heavier. Each segment was about the size of a quarter. I think the whole thing was rust colored. It did have huge pincers.

I was actually talking to my Daughter about it a few months ago. She was around 8 at the time but she remembers it.

It is not the pincers out front, it is the large fangs under the flat head that get you. Big nasty black fangs. Have to flip them over to see them.

The ones in SE Asia would give you more than a sting.
