    During World War II British soldiers found that Condoms were useful for keeping weaponry clean and safe from the elements by putting condoms over the ends of rifle barrels etc. A request was made to have 18 inch condoms made for larger weaponry, Prime Minister Winston Churchill gave his seal of approval but only on condition that they were marked "Medium Size" in case they fell into enemy hands.



    TRUE or FALSE ?



    biggrin


    I say false.


    It's TRUE!

    Check the latest question out William.


    Hmmm, I could have sworn yours was the latest one. Anyways, I hadn't seen your answer whether it's true or false. Ah well. wink

De-fanging means that the tips of the fangs where venom is injected from are snipped off, this is harmless and doesn't affect the creature at all.



    TRUE or FALSE ?

    bump


    Please read the thread, I don't want to have to keep bumping this.

  8. I'd say FALSE.

    Isn't the case that these spiders used in the movies have venom on a par with bee stings?

    Don't tell me otherwise Tim, because tarantulas are the one species of spider that I think that I could hold without coming out in a cold sweat.

    You'd soon change your mind if you looked at my old "buddy" 'Leggit', a large black Peruvian birdeater, and not the one in the profile picture from MovieMusic board, 'Leggit' was un-handleable.

  11. It would not take much for me to alter my stance on large spiders and your comments were enough to do that!

    Spiders I don't mind, I've held a few tarantulas in my time. It's crabs and any other crustaceans I can't deal with. (They always drive a hard bargain wince wince, cringe cringe.)

    Well done to everyone who said.....


    FALSE!



    If you "de-fanged" a Tarantula it would never be able to feed again and would die.

    Except for people who may have a bad allergic reaction a bite from these spiders ( except for a few poisonous species ) is no mor than like a painful bee sting. They are also fragile and like Bregje said, dropping one could be fatal for the spider.

    The one's used in films are docile species such as the Chilean Rose and Mexican Red Knee.

    Now see, THAT is information that is actually useful!

    So they can be trained to sit still while you go and find an amazingly large hammer to stomp 'em with? Cool!

    Even with an amazingly large hammer ( which Martijn couldn't lift anyway ) you wouldn't see Martijn's arse for dust at the thought of a large spider in the vicinity.

    Nuking from outer space has always been my personal preference.
    I'm extremely brave in orbit (though preferably around another planet altogether).

    Just to keep this alive until I can think of a decent question...

    Here's five things to do with me.....

    1) Someone once shot me with a gun

    2) I once did a death defying leap over a cravasse

    3) I saw a dog eating the body of a child

    4) I once accidentally trod on the Dalai Lama's foot

    5) A "friend" once spiked me with amphetimines


    Only ONE of the above is NOT true....which one?


    In the style of the above, a slightly more down to earth 'five things about me...


    1) I once hit Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in the head with an egg I threw from a crowd in Bristol during the early 1980's

    2) Me and some friends freaked out one of our best friends with a well contrived 'Ghost stunt', he started crying and ran away and we didn't see him for Months.

    3) I sculpted an Arnold Schwarzenegger head which was cast four times in latex to be worn by four members of a pop band.

    4) I once ran a Marathon, it took me 3 hours 20 minutes even though I weighed 100 kilos at the time.

    5) I once beat the British and European pool champion, he didn't even get one shot in.


    Only ONE of the above is NOT true....which one?
