Today, I learned that scorpions can apparently hold their breath for hours, and that doing so makes them angry. I found this out when I removed a scorpion from the bottom of my pool and found that it was not entirely drowned. FML

Did he survive? And how do you know he was there for hours? I am very curious about this one.

The scorpion sounds like a David Blane wannabe... or maybe it's the other way around. The result is the same though. You can't seem to get rid of them.

The spelling of a name has nothing to do with grammar or Nazis.

He wasn't throwing a scorpion into his pool, he was pulling one out.

Then how does he know how long it had been there?

I guess he saw that the scorpion was there but did not immediatly have time to get it out of the pool, or he wanted to make sure that it was really dead and waited some time...

Im taking it that you got stung so the first thing I assume? How did you get him out? If it was a skimmer(net) I have no idea how you could've gotten hurt unless you put your face near it. That I understand because I want to check out the creatures too. But it didn't move while you retrieved it?

Its like I feel that 90% FYL but 10% YDI because....it didn't move? And even if it was dead it still has a stinger so proceed with caution? I don't know...I need more details. -.-
