“From that first cocktail party, it was like this instant calibration between souls, as if we had known each other once before,” she continued. “Friendship ripened into something bolder, trust in a very strange situation was formed, and now every adventure we have rivals the other — and continues to make plans for itself.”
On her own Instagram, Scanlon wrote, “Meeting Megan this year felt like destiny. … I know we will have many more adventures for many years to come.”
Not only are there venomous snakes, man-eating crocodiles and evil jellyfish – there’s now fricking mice-eating spiders in Australia (cancels trip).
A video has been circulating showing a ravenous spider in Australia that is so strong, it has no problem carrying a mouse up a fridge for feeding time.
And its name is Hermie the huntsman – that’s right, our worst nightmare has a name (great).
Jason Wormal, a tradesman from Coppabella in Queensland, was heading out to work in the early hours when a neighbour called him.
On Facebook, he wrote: ‘So I am just about to leave for work about 0030 and me neighbour says ‘You want to see something cool’ and I say ‘Hell yeah’.
‘So we proceed to his place and he shows me this. Huntsman trying to eat a mouse.’
