No, really: Have you seen the size of their spiders?
Now, we turn to the sea, where Sue Elcock, 68, caught a 136-lb fish off the country's west coast.
Elcock, who hails from the United Kingdom, caught the bass grouper while on vacation with her family.
"I couldn't believe it, I didn't even know what it was,” she said. “Obviously, I don't go fishing in England. I play golf," she told CNN.
Elcock's son Simon says he's proud and jealous of his mom's catch.
According to CNN, Elcock has become a bit of a local celebrity, with some calling her a fishing "legend".
