When Giant Venomous Centipedes Attack!

Oh man, look at THIS ghastly thing. Some guy in Britain found this in his home. Aaron Balick hears some rustling behind the TV and he figures its a mouse. He goes to investigate and lifts up some papers and finds Mr. Creepy Crawly.

"Instead, when I lifted the papers, I saw this prehistoric looking animal skitter away behind a stack of books." He trapped the 9-inch-long creature between a stack of books and put it in a plastic container.

Turns out these things are indigenous to South America. Go figure. They estimate that it stowed away aboard a ship.

Now take a close look at these Kouhuns. You know those nasty critters that Jango Fett sent with Zam Wessell to assassinate Padme in Attack of the Clones?

Almost the same length, these guys average about 11.5 inches. And much of the movie was filmed in England. Hmmm. Makes you wonder. I think the special effects guys at Lucasfilm have some 'splaining to do.
