The Indian Red Scorpion is considered the most lethal of all scorpions. But despite its reputation, it only stings as a last resort. Shunning human contact, it prefers to feast on insects, like roaches.

The deadliest scorpion is Hanzo Hasashi.

@1991darkmage 8 лет назад

yea that's been the case since being discovered. only reason it's so deadly is cause it has that retractable claw that grabs it's prey.

Scorpions just like scorpios are shy by nature but if you with anger them you're done.

@TheVelociraptor15 12 лет назад

The smaller scorpions are, the more lethal their sting is. The largest living scorpion, Heterometrus swammerdami, uses its giant pincers to crush its prey, but rarely uses its sting.

@staum607 12 лет назад

@KafshakTashtak I refer to use prolonged periods of teasing that create severe depression in the scorpion. This tactic has the same suicidal results and is much safer then setting fires. It also can be used on all types of arachnids.

@jmembang2467 3 года назад

Hottentotta Tamulus (Indian Red) is the deadliest in terms of contact with people, since it lives near houses. Leiurus Quinquestriatus (Deathstalker) is the deadliest in terms of venom since it lives in far from people places like deserts so getting stung by them is kinda rare unless you eanted to make contact

Yikes. D: One summer when I was 13 I kept seeing a ton of really tiny brown ones in my room back in Texas. I knew the smaller ones are worse, and I'll always be afraid of them. Of course the most powerful would be red! I guess it's a good warning

@bradleyii 12 лет назад

i got stung by a little brown one like that once. i live in texas and i still am unsure if that thing could have killed me... lmao

@SimsorkDesign 12 лет назад

Well the small animals can't rely on their muscles to defend themselves so naturally they have other solutions to this problem, like being highly poisonous. Bigger animals can overpower their pray so they don't need powerful poison in their stingers.

The title is a bit misleading. This video is interesting, but it's about scorpions in general and only ephemerally mentions the "world's deadliest scorpion."

How to kill scorpion: Make a fire that surrounds the scorpion, it will look for a scape, when it doesn't find the escape, it will sting itself and commit suicide.
