Scorpions on a plane

first came the snakes. now scorpions are all the rage.

David Sullivan was stung, not once but twice, by a scorpion.
It plunged the tip of its potentially lethal tail into the back of his right leg, just below the knee.It then crawled up and down is left leg before stinging him again on the shin.

Mr Sullivan, 46, had woken from a nap shortly before landing and noticed something strange. "My right leg felt like it was asleep, but that was isolated to one spot, and it felt like it was being jabbed with a sharp piece of plastic or something."

wheres samuel jackson when you need him?

I think they should make:
"People Who Have Bad Breath And Fart On A Plane"
This is often the real horror of being packed like cattle into a plane.

Geez, scorpions?
Hope that movie doesn't spawn bad ideas....

scorpions? Damn.

Where was this at? Possibly a flight to/from somewhere in a desert state?

Geeze.

This sounds like the beginning of a bad Sci Fi channel B movie.

I wonder what would be next?
Now there is another thing to worry than just terrorism.
