Video: Cris Cyborg just ate a giant tarantula on a stick (seriously)

So here’s the kind of thing nightmares are made of (blame Middle Easy).

Invicta FC Featherweight Champion Cristiane Justino is no stranger to eating souls. But what about eight-legged freaks skewered on the streets of Cambodia? I suppose there’s only one way to find out.

As I put my fork into one of the spiders, I hear a cracking like a shell breaking. The shivers up my spine make no noise, though. I lift the arachnid to my mouth and bite first into the legs. They break easily beneath my teeth and taste a lot like a prawn tail.
