Woweee. After seeing this big fucker, I’m never, eeeever stepping on a pillbug again, in fear that their giant brethren will scuttle up from the sea and strike me dead. Like, seriously, that’s creepy. Reminds me of this nightmare I had as a child, of giant armoured creatures clawing at the blinds of my bedroom. Ick.
