Please tell me that spider is PHOTOSHOPPED!!!!
It’s not photoshopped. However, the angle of the photo is deceiving. Camel spiders are nasty little spuds, but the guy standing in the background is several yards back, giving the appearance that the spider is a couple of feet long. Look at the cuff in the upper part of the photo and it will give a better indication of the actual size of the spider.

The photo it’s a pair of scary-looking creatures dangling end-to-end. A typical specimen can grow to about the size of a child’s hand, but, though they are known as predators and can kill insects and very small animals, camel spiders are neither venomous nor a threat to human beings.
