Father shares home with scorpions

A Thai father has adapted his house so that 4,600 scorpions can live with him and his family.

Suang Puangsri has decorated part of his house in Fark Ta in Uttaradit with tree branches and stones so that the creatures feel more comfortable.

He said he has done it to atone for years of breeding scorpions to sell to restaurants.

1: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. If it does what it says, you should have no problem with this.
2: What proof will you accept that you are wrong? You ask us to change our mind, but we cannot change yours?
3: It is not our responsability to disprove your claims, but rather your responsability to prove them.

What part of ‘meow’ don’t you understand?
