I'm also wondering if he got the idea from the video game Skyrm?

A boy in the town of Riverwood is proposing that he dress his dog up as a "Frostbite Spider" as a prank.

In response, the little girl states that the townspeople or guards would probably kill his dog.

even before watching it, I hoped that the costume is made of Kevlar.

I HATE spiders, but that was damn funny.

That was pure awesomeness on a stick, dipped in cornmeal batter, and deep-fried in peanut oil.

I loved it!

Not that that stopped me from laughing out loud. It just meant that I felt a little guilty about laughing.

They'd be opening themselves up to all kinds of lawsuits if they did this for real. People would be calling 911 or hurting themselves while running away.

Even so, I find it funny.

INSTEAD OF CALLING THE POLICE, I say let "Spider Dog" at 'em.

But I am an ex-American Red Cross instructor, so getting help is still pretty brainwashed into my head.

I am also totally with the two women who ran screaming at the sight of the scary spider-dog on top of the splayed guy in the elevator!

Run first - then call for help - THEN take a video so you can post it on your Facebook.

I am also not someone who will run into a dust devil to take a selfie, so please keep my stance in mind when thinking about my advice - sensible, or just not "adventurous"?
