I've heard that there are allegedly giant spiders in the Congo, as well as dinosaursIs there anything else out there?Stories you've heard about this stuff or in the unlikely event of the spiders experienced yourself?
>>43102335White ape men. Nearly human, but not quite.I've heard of them. Cannibals.I also heard of a lost tribe of humans that are more evolved than any current humans.
>>43102356where are they said to be?
I was listening to a Coast to Coast video years back where a guy was talking about these invisible beings in Indonesia. He said he was there to help build radio towers or something in some of the more rural villages and while he was out there something he couldn't see bit him on the leg, which caused him to become violently ill. The villagers told him about these beings and how they didn't like people wearing any colors other than black and white, so the locals typically only wore those colors and made sure most of their body was covered. I think they linked this with the Missing 411 info that one of the common details about some of those cases was the brightly colored clothing people wore while hiking/hunting. Have no idea what episode it was.
>>43102335They find woolly mammoths at the North Pole with fresh food in their bellies because they exist in the inner earth opening at the North PoleAlso Mars supposedly has giant spiders
>>43102335Bro I have astral projected into an arachnid. It's just a different way of existence, still conscious.
>>43102335>the unexplored parts of the worlddeep underground
>>43102335I think you need to get over the fact that earth isn't as mystical as you want it to be. There's probably just more tiny beetles.
>>43102941>t. fed who knows that lovecraftian monsters are real
>>43102641Gemini ai says it's the Kajang tribe on the island of Sulawesi. I don't know if it made this stuff up or not, but there's a starting point for anyone who wants to look more into it.>>43102696>Also Mars supposedly has giant spidersBased on what?
>>43102356More evolved how?Does that include more developed? Like a breakaway society?
>>43102335In the late 90s there was a rumor, I don't know where it came from and I never found any track of it later on the internet but back then different people told me about it, that during renovation works in a castle that belonged to the queen of England workers had found a 1 meter giant spider stored there. Supposedly it was a specimen captured in Congo and brought back to England, but we can only wonder why it was stored there instead of being in a museum or a lab, and what happened to it after they found it.Anyway, this is one of the cryptids I think are the most believable. And there were reports of these spiders by explorers in past centuries, people thought they just exaggerated.Experts claim that spiders can't grow that big though because of their organs.
>>43102780If not a joke, how was it? I read that most of them are blind but they can detect movements incredibly precisely and taste stuff remotely, they must perceive their environment very differently from us.
>>43104489there's also the fact that multiple local tribes of borderline retarded africans have been able to describe in detail the life cycles of the spiders as well as the best way to avoid them
>>43102924what's down there?
>>43102335Aren't giant spiders biologically impossible?
>>43105384women. you;ll want to avoid further exploration
I know it may seem like sometimes there is no magic or spiritualism left in the world, but the world is so vast and big it has to be out there.
>>43104489Their eggs look like peanuts
>>43105400damni was thinking of heading down there because i figured there were less women
>>43105399people say that but it could be that there's more oxygen in the Congo because of all the trees so they might get biggerthrow in years of uninterrupted evolution and they could also overcome the physics of their legs no longer supporting their weightthat being said i don't think "giant" means dog or cat sized or whateverjust a lot bigger than other spiders and not officially discovered yet because the Congo is hard to explore and actively tries to kill everyone who enters
>>43105399pretty sure they've found some pretty huge fossils.somethingsomething atmosphere isn't as oxygen rich or someshit
>>43105375That is indeed the mark of real danger and not superstition.
>>43106027bunch of unconnected tribes who would be too retarded to get the story straight even if they were regularly seeing each other all saying the same stuffgives it credit imo
>>43105399There's fossils of Meganeura, a dragonfly with a foot-long wingspan, and Arthropleura, an 8 foot long millipede, from the Carboniferous period 300 million years ago. And giant sea scorpions from the Devonian period 400 million years ago. I don't think they've found a giant spider fossil yet. Everything they have found turned out to be a sea scorpion that superficially looks like a spider because they're both arachnids. The biggest spider today is the goliath bird eater, which has a foot-wide legspan. That's probably the limit for spider size, even if you go back 300 million years when there was more oxygen in the atmosphere. Nobody's found a dog-sized or Human-sized spider fossil yet.
>>43105399they have 'book lungs' that seem to have a size restriction (they work by allowing air to diffuse through an internal tissue with a large surface area, but no mechanical breathing), it's just that there is no reason to think it's impossible to make a bigger book lung spiders use pneumatic muscles, it might also put an upper limit on their size based on the kind of pressures needed to make them move, but again it could just evolve to be bigger in some way we couldn't imagine or predict
>>43107850This reminds me that I read an article a few years ago saying that a new slightly bigger spider had just been found in caves in China, 36cm legspan against 34-35cm for the goliath, but it just has very long legs, its body is not big, so the goliath is still considered the biggest one. Still, this means that new giant species can still be found.Also it may not be exactly spiders but something else than can grow larger. There are these other arachnids, I don't remember their name, they are the cousins of spiders and scorpions but they are even uglier, yellowish with a long body, and they can grow huge. There were photographs of soldiers in Afghanistan with these and they were wrongly reported as proofs of giant spiders back then on paranormal forums. Maybe there are even bigger ones in Congo and people there call them spiders.
>>43108770I think you're talking about Solifugae, the camel spiders. They're freaky little bastards. I think they mostly live in deserts, so I don't know if rainforest areas like the Congo would get them. They're 12-15 centimeters long, but I could definitely believe there's bigger specimens out there nobody's found yet.
>>43108770The largest arachnid is the Japanese Spider Crab. The old bulls have been able to grow about the size of an adult human.
>>43108307>there is no reason to think it's impossible to make a bigger book lungPhysics.It isnt the book lungs so much as the propagation of oxygen to the rest of the body. Spiders use a passive system of tubes, no active airflow. the tubes let oxygen diffuse through the body, so a body too large means the oxygen wont diffuse far enough.Along with that, having an exoskeleton means molting to grow significant size, which means a body too heavy would crush itself while it is soft and waiting for its new shell to harden.To get much bigger, you would need completely different lungs, and a different exoskeleton structure.Eventually, you just redesign the coconut crab, which itself isnt getting much bigger than a cat.
>>43102780Ugh this makes me feel bad, i just killed a boxelder bug. They are conscious too :/ fuck i feel like I’m going to go to hell now
>>43111048I accidentally injured a little bug last night that was crawling on me, but I put it outside and a spider eventually caught it. I feel bad for basically dooming that bug, but at least spider friend got an easy meal.
>>43102335>giant spiders in the CongoDeep in the Louisiana forests as well
>>43112874care to elaborate?
Megalodon are still alive.This photo was taken off the coast of South Africa by a German submarine in 1945
>>43102335Me. I’m what lurks beneath. The ugliest, meanest, angriest, most uncivilized schizo Master grifter troll. In the woods, feeding the skunks and hunting you down with bigfoot.
>>43113126How come we don't see them? Megalodons are too big to eat anything besides whales, but whale populations aren't mysteriously shrinking from being eaten. Megalodons were coastal sharks when they were young too, so you'd probably be able to encounter one just by going swimming or snorkeling at the beach.
>>43105375>>43104489Experts in this case are falsely assuming a Spider would not evolve to compete with land crabs, which would necessitate a larger size
>>43113126Those are pennant flags.
>>43102356You're just describing the Balkans
>>43102335In the tunnels of Tel Aviv they have trained packs of rape dogs
>>43116303the only reason they haven't trained rape dogs in america is because white women consent
>>43116482False. Isreal will be training rape dogs here too. They don’t care how many consent. They come from long lines of child blood drinkers
>>43102335Sasquatch like creatures that go by different names in different regions.Also gnomes and imps and gnome-like creatures that are slightly different from gnomes.
>>43116512>They don’t care how many consentit does kind of matter thoughif everyone consents then they're no longer rape dogs
>>43116775They’ll use them to rape everyone even guys who don’t consent Do you even know Israel?
>>43116825white women will protect usnot out of altruism but we'll be safe at least
>>43102356Huh?
>>43118780The first one is actually comparatively credible. A family of imbred albinos who survived via cannibalism and lives secluded from other negro tribes (since albinos are usually killed at birth) could easily be taken for hairless white ape men. Incest can lead to some horrifying disfigurations.
>>43103606Can't you at least check gemini's sources before you type your bullshit?
>>43119206He cannot, probably a kid who believes anything an ai says and is unable to read anything with more than three lines
>>43111007That's not an arachnid you fucking retard
>>43119206>>43119223What are you two getting pissy about? If you know more about those invisible spirits the other anon brought up, by all means post them in the thread so other people can do their own research.
>>43102335This shit really creeps me out.
>>43116482Yes, but only if they have curly hair, glasses, or both.
>>43112874There aren't any forests in Louisiana.
>>43113126There is a living Kraken kept in a large aquarium in Area 51. This Kraken is one of 3 Krakens in the world. The first one is dead long time ago. This is the second one. And the third is still free to roam the sea on the move.
>>43105399To modern human knowledge no but you can never rule out a branch of the archnid family being left alone long enough to evolve a way around the limit of their body structure/oxygen issue.Never rule out crocodilians, sharks, and spiders when it goes to being left alone to start evolving like a godamn digimon

>>43121091I wonder if there are ones that are in the Salticidae line and are elusive but what would act like bouncy, eight-legged Golden Retrievers if we could establish a captive bred population.
>>43102356>cannibals Why do normie fags say this about other species that allegedly eat humans? You dumb fucks, cannibalism is when you eat your own kind. Goddamn, you're all stupid
giant beings are a lot easier to discover, so no, there are no new giant spider species anywhere left in the congo.You are just looking for the easiest or most obvious route to find something new or exciting.That being said there are plenty of species to still be discovered, maybe some are somewhat large even.You just gotta stop trying to make everything easy or simple or unnecessarily exciting, life isnt a hollywood movie.Go out there, take the hard but at least existing way and find something new
>>43125062Why would you assume that's not what he meant you arrogant faggot redditor. Your post brings nothing new to the thread, it's just useless emotional bickering. Why are you so upset about this you fucking retarded nerd, calm down>>43102335Here be dragons
>semi-intelligent hominids in Australia (Yowie), some parts of Asia and Russia (Big Foot doesn't exist, never did, it's just misunderstood and bad interpretation of Native legends later propagated by the Patterson / Gimlin hoax). But there are smaller hominids similar to Sasquatch in other parts of the world. None of the alien / extra-dimensional bullshit either, just regular undiscovered animals>there are giant snakes deep, deep in the Amazon and Congo>something called the Onca-Cangucu which is described as a giant-ass black jaguar which kills people deep in the Amazon jungle. Might be a ground sloth.>interestingly, there are no aquatic cryptids, only "kraken" which is just giant squid. But there are no sea serpents or megalodon.t. Knower
>>43125118Yes but not so long ago people were saying the same thing about gorillas, pandas, giant skids...
>>43125952What do you expert think about the indonesian gnomes? People there keep seeing them. European explorers reported seeing them just a few centuries ago. Skeleton even were found totally matching the description and science now admits they existed but officially the species went extinct twelve thousand years ago.
>>43126065They hide from humans because we have a habit of raping them
>>43126926>raping Orang PendekAs if anyone could be sexually attracted to small redhead monkey people.
>>43126065>>43127543There's this Australian primatologist Adam Thorn (has a YT channel ''Thorn's Jungle'') who is sceptical about 99% of cryptids but he has done tons of field work in remote jungles of Borneo and he's convinced that Orang Pendek is the one cryptid that exists
>>43127543There’s people on this board who are attracted to cartoons and will rape anything
>>43121007Crocodiles and sharks are some of the LEAST evolving species out there. They havent changed in any significant way for hundreds of millions of years. The crocs and sharks that were living before the dinosaurs would be able to breed with the ones we have today.
>>43126036And the way their mind was changed was by work.you like to pretend you are going to Asia to find pandas.But all you are doing in sitting in a coffee shop demanding other people accept.Go out, find the spiders. Find the evidence. Otherwise it's just bullshit you want to be true.
>>43111048I try to home the bugs outside. Had a spider minding its business until I turned on the light. It saw me. Froze. I left, came back. It completely changed its trajectory. It saw me. Froze again. Eventually it found a piece of shade in the lit room under a shelf. It tried to get into the crevice of the shelf and the wall but couldn't.It appeared it knew it was at serious risk of dying and really did not want to die.It compressed itself, wedged in the under-shelf corner as much as it could.I turned the light off. Scrolled /x/. Turned the light on some time later. The small spider was still hiding in the corner it found - not making a web, not making a move.I went to rehome it in the morning and it was gone. Inside the house is not a great spot for it, only spiders really find their way in somehow. I hope it found its way outside.Maybe I'm projecting, but it really seemed like it knew it was at risk of death and consciously knew it was in the wrong place at the wrong time and tried to avoid its early demise.Bugs can fear too. Everything is trying to survive.Wasps can fuck off. But the non swarming non-aggressive ones who just find themselves in our world, like a fly trying to fly outside but stuck at a screen... sometimes flies can be deliberate assholes, but some are just caught in our world and indeed don't want to be part of it. I try to help those guys.

>>43127823https://www.burkemuseum.org/collections-and-research/biology/arachnology-and-entomology/spider-myths/myth-spiders-come-indoors>Myth: Spiders come into houses in the fall to get out of the cold.>Fact: This seemingly simple idea conceals many false assumptions. In reality, house spiders are usually not the same species as the yard or garden spiders outside the house.>House spiders belong to a small number of species specially adapted for indoor conditions (constant climate, poor food supply, very poor water supply). Some house spider species have been living indoors at least since the days of the Roman Empire, and are seldom to be found outside, even in their native countries (usually Europe). Many of these species now live in houses worldwide, and most have been carried by commerce to more than one continent. Few are adapted to North American outdoor environments.https://www.burkemuseum.org/collections-and-research/biology/arachnology-and-entomology/spider-myths/myth-house-spiders-belong>Myth: "I'm very kind to spiders; when I find one in the house, I put it back outside instead of killing it.">Fact: You can't put something "back" outside that was never outside in the first place. Although some house spider species can survive outdoors, most don't do well there, and some (which are native to other climates) will perish rather quickly when removed from the protective indoor habitat. You're not doing them a favor.
>>43125579You calm down.
>>43127830Yeah. Imagine how many dogs don’t take well to being rapists. Notice how they use German shepherds like the Nazis, those dogs are loyal and can be trained to be vicious Probably much harder to turn a golden retriever into a rapistI bet they put immense thought and resources into creating packs of rape dogsThat’s so crazy to think about

>>43128666>>43129039will you two please stop? we’re trying to discuss giant spiders and isreali rape dogs
>>43129057Every dog is a rape dog. What's a dog for? What's it's purpose? To terrorize everything outside it's designated home. That's it. The sound of a dog barking is the sound of rape

>>43130517I meant rape as a metaphor you retarded child. That should be obvious. What I meant was that dogs are tools for humans. House Alarm and self defense in the best cases, raping prisoners in the worst. It's been this way since the first wolves approached the fist proto-humans' campfires. It's not normal but every dog has the potential to be an israeli rape dog. Is it normal to get blasted by aggressive barking just for walking past somebody on the sidewalk? Is it normal that toddlers regularly get mauled by nigger dogs just for being toddlers? People use dogs for all kinds of fucked up shit and way too much of it is normalized.

>>43105655I agree. The age of magic has not ended, but simply waned. I think one day it will return in full force. for now, it keeps its presence subtle, but it is most certainly out there

>>43138952It's not a jumpscare. Not sure why it's a gif but worth the read, as someone who went through those woods once 10 years ago and kept seeing massive spiderwebs way up in the branches.
>>43141372You are more courageous than I. You can call me a faggot but I could not go there after reading this.
>>43141449Tbf I didn't know until someone posted that image a few months ago, and then I thought back and a lot of my memory of the place made sense. I shit you not, there was a bridge in this massive clearing in the woods, and parallel to the bridge about 15' higher, there was just a big web suspended in the middle. Clearing was easily 50', main web diameter maybe 10', right in the middle like a painting you'd center on a wall. We just stopped and were like "...how big is the thing that made that, how tf could a spider bridge this gap."I swear I saw a leg too. Just an inch sticking out from behind a small tree trunk. Kept turning around to stare at it because I KNEW it looked like a spider leg, but was like "haha, no way, it's way too big. That must be a vine or something." Spindly digit was about .5" wide, so you can assume how big the rest of the spider was. If I had to guess, leg span somewhere around 15-18". Fucker was hunting us, after I finally stopped watching it (we were taking a break), it sprayed someone in our group. And we all told him he was nuts, it must have been some rain from the canopy, it was his own sweat, etc. Our local buddies were calmly like "let's not leave buddy at the back of the group okay?" I thought I was crazy because after buddy got sprayed, the "vine" had shifted position, even though no one was near enough to the tree to have moved it.After finding that image, I asked everyone about the trip, and was told that the local friend actually grew up in that area. They couldn't let the dogs or young kids out alone at night because the spiders would try to drag them off.
>>43133614they’re not using dogs to metaphorically rape people they’re using them to literally rape people isrealis are not right in the head bro
>>43139433It is now, nigger. Welcome to my class. Lesson one: A metaphor isn't even poetry kek not my fault you're a missing a chromosome>>43142683I know. Everyone knows. But that makes dogs evil too. Plenty animals know right from wrong. Dogs are too retarded for that. It's like they're made by the devil. They are like little imps from hell. Evil minions, ready to be used against innocent people. Israeli prison rape is just the most extreme example, every asshole who uses a dog to intimidate someone else is doing the same thing. It's the perfect asshole symbiosis. Bad man's best friend

Glasses also essential at night.>Stephen King's 'The Mist' movie released 2007>soldier makes up unverifiable story claiming it happened around same time>waits 13 years to tell someoneYeeahh, okay. :-P The trap door spider story was a nice bonus. Was he watching 'Arachnophobia' around the same time too? Sorry, but you're not going to go back out there unless you're armed to the teeth after seeing something like that. It's a good creepy campfire story to spook out the arachnophobes who might be present. Narrated in a manner that suggests legitimacy while being essential nil on facts. Sounds like he took specifics from the J'ba fofi stories and peppered it in with his own.>So there we have it - either a meticulously well thought out hoaxPrecisely that.

>>43125118Several years back I read about a guy that went to the Amazon specifically to research jaguars. He was in the jungle every day, in known jaguar territory, and it still took him a month to spot one.The Congo could still hide many secrets.
>>43102335After watching all of Bob Gymlan’s videos over the last 72 hours, I’ve come to the conclusion that we know little to nothing about the history of humanity and that even countries (especially first-world ones) with leading researchers in their respective fields haven’t truly figured out much of anything when it comes to understanding the flora and fauna of their own land...
>>43149991>I did ibogaine and experienced a whole life as a cock fighting rooster.For real? I read about people doing salvia and spending a long time as a piece of furniture or stuff, but I always wondered how true these stories are. I mean if it's real, after spending years as something else, there is just no way someone can just go on with their life, it must be incredibly disturbing to be back, to see people who think they saw you yesterday but you haven't seen them for years.
