It is said that you can get an idea of a scorpions sting by the size of its hands. Thin hands, big sting, fat hands, little sting.
I didn't test the theory !!!

Woah... where was this Richard? Not the UK I trust...

@Daroru: Ha ha, although its similar in colour, this critter is not the one we get in the UK, which is confined to few small colonies here and there. This one is a middle Eastern variety, photographed during one of my visits abroad, and much bigger than the UK ones. I believe the sting of this type to be one of the deadliest in the world.
I agree with Shaahin

i never take photos of YEKKKKKHH creatures, but i like looking at other peoples photos on them, i guess this one has a strong sting, i can't really say they are disgusting because i think they feel the same about humans.
