Oh come on, they need to sound extra brave
Don't laugh, I had a sea cucumber come right at me, chased me down, knocked my video camera right out of my hands, then ripped right through my mouthpiece hoses, then knocked me unconscious. No diver that has ever fought back has lived to tell. They're the most foul, cruel invertebrates you'd ever laid eyes on!
Some are vicious killers with mean streaks a mile wide! I've seen the bones of 50 divers strewn about their lairs! You've been warned!

Well I don't know about that tale, but when attacked the will shot their intestines out their anus and it is foul and sticky! It repels most predators and looks painful! Talk about roids!

you know I've tried to get them to do that but to no success. I don't know what the trickSqueezing just seems to get them to get shorter and fat. Even taking a bite (no not really) the picture I took was just a joke, and I highly doubt he'll see it here but I covered his face just to be safe
That would have been funny! The face that was covered? Defog! It would not have been a good time to see it work!

Actually these Komodo Dragons are very aggressive, and will come after a human. They have been known to kill humans. Not common, but not all that uncommon.
OMG. It has been a while since I have had a laugh that good.
As far as the Komodo Dragons, I have heard the same thing. I am under the impression that it is fairly easy to stay out of their territory though as they only live in certain areas. I am sure a nice size stick would surely take one down as long as you were aware that it was heading toward you, not that I would want to kill or hurt one, but you have to defend yourself.
Anyway I suppose my original point is understood.
Komodo Dragons, world's largest lizard, up to 10 feet long, weighing in at close to 300lbs, rows of needle-sharp teeth covered with highly toxic saliva containing 80 different kinds of bacteria.They don't just kill you on the spot, they bite and then follow you around for a day or two while you die from blood poisening. Once you collapse they just stroll in and start taking chunks. They can't chew so they just tear off big bits of you and swallow them down. Not a fun way to go.
Sounds like my Buddies ex-wife!

Think only some species do that? (making them spill their intestines) Btw, had a bad experience with that, the "intestines" aka cuvierian threads ARE sticky and they cause bad rashes! I uploaded one photo at my gallery with the threads sticking out.you know I've tried to get them to do that but to no success. I don't know what the trick
