The amazing screaming camel spider

I was attacked when I was headed back to my ship one night from the local bar in Bahrain. They emitted a high pitched scream that made my ears bleed immediately. Then 3 of them leaped on me and tore thru my shirt with their sharp beaks. I punched them off and ran to be ship. A traumatic experience to say the least. Oh, did I mention I'd had 3 long island iced teas? Here's some more info:

Yeah, they're ... somethin' else.

Arachnophobes should not click the link in the topic post. Camel spiders are horrific just to look at.
 
One decided to chase me in Afghanistan, so I chased it back with a shovel.
