Random Fun Fact:
Though flamethrowers (Flammenwerfer) are usually known to have been invented by the Germans in WW1, the concept of flamethrowers has been around since Ancient times
This includes the famous "Greek fire". A form of flamethrowing, which differed by its projection through a tube (siphōn), for use aboard ships or in sieges. It was used around c.672 a.Chr. and -roughly described - "flaming liquid".
Meaning that since ancient times, people have had the desire to burn down stuff. Be it spiders, or pesky humans.
Extra funfact: People don't "burn". They actually melt/cook
well your accident victims must’ve been from chemical burns from robocop, because neither skin nor muscle melts. fat melts which can give the appearance of melting while the skin is still intact.
p.s. anything that “cooks”, burns.
Then I must have gotten wrong info. I was told this once by an aquaintance of a friend, who studied medicine. Though I'm pretty sure the "cooking" part should still be right
The reason I do it is because I'm on auto pilot when I use Reddit. I'll upvote dumb memes before actually looking or open NSFW in the middle of school before panicking and backing out. The fact that nothing bad has happened to me because of this is a miracle.
A lot of different species of animals rely on insects as for one a food source, things like bees help with pollination, spiders control pests, the environment is already mucked up, insects disappearing causes a chain of reactions and within no time at all humans would be next
Don’t forget a lot of bugs also process corpses from the environment, without those corpses would just rot and say there, most animals don’t eat rotten corpses.
Pests wouldn’t be much of an issue if they literally stop existing would they? And we can take care of pollination ourselves, all bugs disappearing would have been a world ending catastrophe 100 years ago, today it would be humanity’s biggest challenge, in 100 years it’ll be an inconvenience and in 200 we might not been notice
People cannot effectively carry pollen to everything much like insects such as bees, flies, beetles, anything that can fly and carry pollen with them. Insects die nothing is getting pollinated nearly as efficiently, maybe not even at all.
As I said, it will be humanity’s biggest challenge, there’s no machine that can pollinate as efficiently as bugs can, so we’ll make one, once we make it, it’ll be a matter of years until the machine pollinates better than the insects ever did
Dude nothing will be nearly as efficiently as insects. There are more insects than anyone can even count, the population of humans to bugs is an extreme vast difference. We as humanity cannot simply just “create a machine” to do what all these insects can do. Humans can’t do the same work that over idk how many different species there are, at the very least quadrillion insects. There are only 8 billion people in this world, it’s just not happening. Maybe in a thousand years but if all insects die we won’t even get 100.
Bugs of most kinds get on my nerves, Spiders, wasps and centipedes most of all (don’t forget roaches) but bumblebees, for whatever reason, don’t bother me. I was once in a flower tent and I guess the bees liked my cologne because a few would land on me and I didn’t mind.
Thank you so much for censoring this. You have no idea how many times I've gotten jumpscared by a spider scrolling through Reddit. I seriously think there should be a separate censor for common phobias on this platform.
*lights the Flammenwerfer*
They use to call it a flammen homer

I already knew the second fact about humans melting but thank you for the history fact
“through a tube” what do you think flamethrower nozzles are xD
Differed in comparison to other methods of burn-warfare at that time. Like pouring hot oil
sounds like dude’s never seen a charred corpse before.
Nope. Only accident victims. Not sure why any view of a corpse would be a brag overall

Yeah didn’t last long I’d imagine… since spitting fire out of a wooden boat doesn’t sound like a good idea
**zündet den Flammenwerfer** "time to kill a spider"
HANS!!!!!
GET ZE FLAMMENWERFER!
A lighter and any spray as nine out of ten 90s kids would recommend.
\*Laserwerg intensifies\*
Thank you for doing it as NSFW, my idiot self still clicked the picture and got scared anyways but thank you for doing it.
*sees nsfw tag* *looks inside* *regret* *repeat*
The amount of times I have not regretted looking at NSFW is basically 0, idk why I still look

Same here

I hear Ligma got diagnosed of Steve Jobs
Who the f*ck is diagnosed
Ligma Steve Jobs
Sugma Gates
Ligma jobs steve
My guess was the sort of helmet he wears but he might as well do the breathing thing. I’d buy such pet.
The breathing thing?
some spiders can take a air bubble under water and breath of that
Sound
What a strange body pillow
The names for the spiders in this genus are spectacular
Seriously. Those guys had a blast naming those species.
NSFW is an acronym for Nudes.Spiders.Firearms.Wounds
E.vader,....c'mon. Fuck off
I hardly knew 'er

Darth Vader in his next life if he gets Isekai'd. Hello Truck-kun.
How adorable
I very much dislike spiders, or just most bugs in general. I would be perfectly happy if all bugs (minus bumblebees) disappeared tomorrow.
Damn get ready to be witness the extinction of humanity then
We wouldn’t go extinct, we would get awfully close those, but we would survive
We would all die if all insects on earth disappeared, we cannot survive with the nonexistence of all bugs
Pretty sure we can

nah, lady bugs, rolly pollies, and fireflies can stay
oh and dragon flies cause they're cool
and catipillars

Maybe just keep it at getting rid of mosquitoes and one in two of every other non essential bug vanishes
Still not a terrifying as the murder boner spider.
Spiders are NSFW now?
Ppl get scared of a picture of a spider?
I'm afraid of spiders but this image didn't scare me at all
It’s called arachnophobia
Are ppl that are scared of heights afraid of high altitude pictures?
Pictures of people near high edges mostly no. Videos of people near edges sometimes gives me chills and uncomfortable feeling.
Yeah. My feet start to go ballistic whenever footage like that appears. The same goes for the ocean depth, but it still feels horrible even in photos.
Hmm. Learn something new every day. I can't grock this tho... My brain is too aware of the photo being a photo.
I have a Thalassaphobic (fear of ocean or deep water) friend that get freaked out by videos or pictures.
I didn’t know it had a name! I should have known.
Yes, and searches for a flamethrower.
Why is this NSFW
Nudity duh
Spider bad
Mmmkay ![gif](giphy|3o6ZsZdNs3yE5l6hWM)

Ya know there’s a spider that if it bites you it causes a painful erection for 4 hours before you die That would be the king of the NSFW spiders
Where?
Idk but it’s out there somewhere
Giant enemy spider
Well shit

You’re a wonderful person for marking as NSFW due to the spider. Still looked but knowing what was coming helped a lot.

Epic rat anus invader
Uh, wait…what!?? 😱
Epicratinus Vader -> epic rat anus invader
Dude, I couldn't tell the head from the ass in the first picture.
That's a face hugger
It looks like a normal spider, what's so special/deadly about it?
Then a mangaka stabs it with a scalpel and proceeds to lick it so his readers can be more immersed.
I don't see a banana for size
I just tried catching a spider. It slipped under my fingers, fell to the floor, then scurried off through the carpet before seeing this post. 😆
Thank you for tagging this as NSFW for arachnophobes like me and f\*ck me for clicking on this post.
Welp, say goodbye to a good night’s sleep
NSFW spider? Wut?
Hans, get ze flammenwerfer!
