FEAR FACT

  • "Camel Spider" is the common name for solpugids, large non-spider arachnids found in desert regions of the Middle East.
  • The straight jackets used in the stunt had six points of restraint that were lengthened to allow the contestants to escape.
  • The Camel Spider is a fast moving and aggressive hunter, capable of over powering much larger prey than itself. It’s front pair of legs are modified as feelers to detect and pull its prey into its large over sized jaws making this creature a fast moving killing machine.
