Well thats just what I needed to see at 4 AM. It may be fast but it can't outrun a bullet or twenty. Funny Indiana Jones didn't fall into a nest of those.

Re: Camel Spiders.... ICK ICK (Pics... Dont Look at it if you hate spiders)
Hey man stay safe and take care! The misconception about those is that they are not really spiders in a way they are more like the scorpion (they are all in the Arachnid family). People also think that they eat on camels but tey usual eats bugs and small birds. The reason why I know this is during my time spent over there 2 years back I was the safety person for my sqaudron. I had to read all this stuff about them that I really didn't want to but it's scary when you see one run right in front of you in the night on the way to the bathroom!!

I saw those back when I was involved with Desert Storm. They're smaller than that picture indicates and they really aren't a threat to people. Nothing to be scared of. Here's some more info about them critters:
Camel spiders.
