Spider-infested ship turned back from Guam landing

 

 

(07-19) 22:15 PDT HAGATNA, Guam (AP) --

 

Authorities in the U.S. territory of Guam have turned away a ship after thousands of spiders overflowed from its cargo.

 

The Guam Department of Agriculture said hundreds of large spiders and thousands of smaller ones were seen when stevedores began offloading insulation and beams for housing units from the ship, the M.V. Altavia.

 

The cargo was returned to the ship, and the Agriculture Department on Friday ordered that the ship not be allowed to dock. It was last ported in South Korea.

"When you get this many from this many various sizes, it's definitely an infestation," said Department of Agriculture Director Joseph Torres.

 

Agriculture officials said they didn't know what type of spiders were on the ship. But they said it's a type that is not normally found on Guam and there was concern the spiders could damage the island's environment.

 

"It's not on Guam," Torres said. "We don't want it here."

 

The ship was carrying housing units and accessories that were to be used at a work force village expected to house up to 18,000 temporary workers.

 

Before the ship initially docked, officers with the Guam Customs and Quarantine Agency boarded the ship and gave clearance for cargo to be unlocked for offloading, said Bernadette Meno, marking administrator for the Port Authority of Guam.

But when port workers saw the spiders, the containers were ordered back on the ship and it was anchored in the harbor. The decision was later made not to let the ship return.

 

Marianas Steamship Agencies Inc. arranged for the ship's arrival and departure. Its vice president, Richard P. Sablan, said he will follow orders of customs, agriculture and U.S. Coast Guard officials.

More of the Creepiest Islands Cracked has to show

Over at Forests.org, there's an article that opens with a description of, "A deserted island where the forest floor writhes with the world's most venomous vipers. A fisherman found dead on his boat, its deck awash with his blood. A lighthouse keeper and his family massacred in a nocturnal snake invasion of their isolated cottage home.

 

And no, Forests.org is not a site for terrifying Indiana Jones / Anaconda slash-fiction. You see, Ilha de Queimada Grande is a delightfully exotic sounding island off the coast of Brazil that plays host to a certain breed of exotic sounding snake known as the Golden Lancehead. This snake has one of the worst venoms in the world, which literally causes your flesh to rot off your bones.

 

Now you may be asking, "But Cracked, there are poisonous snakes in loads of countries. What's so special about this one tiny island?" Well that's an interesting question, and we are only too pleased to haunt your dreams by filling you in.

 

Remember how we mentioned the snakes only live on this one island? Well it's quite a densely packed island. In fact, the Brazilian Navy has forbidden anyone to visit the place, and they aren't doing that to protect the snakes. Conservative estimates range from the spine tingling one snake per square meter to the "drop dead from pants shitting fear" five snakes per square meter. Can you picture it? Allow us to help you:

 

 

Now imagine five of those. Now imagine those five in an area that's smaller than your bed. Now imagine that writhing nest repeated over every inch of this God-forsaken place.

 

Let's back up and talk about that fisherman:

 

"I heard the story of the fisherman who went ashore to pick bananas, got bitten and somehow managed to struggle back to his boat. There, he bled to death and was found sprawled on the blood-soaked deck of his boat."

 

And the lighthouse keeper's family?

 

"The family ran in panic one night after snakes crawled in through their windows, so the story goes, and were bitten as they fled through the forest by vipers dangling from tree branches. Their bodies were found spread across the island when a navy vessel stopped to make a routine supply drop."

 

 

Yeah. Imagine just sleeping peacefully when snakes start crawling through your bedroom window and you know the only option is to run outside into the jungle where there are even more snakes and they all govern themselves because this is an island of snake monsters and you are the intruder. And you struggle through the underbrush, alone, scared, knowing that you will never make it back to civilization to punch that fucking Realtor who sold you a house on goddamned Snake Island.

Frederick Valentich

 

On 21 October 1978 pilot, Frederick Valentich took off from Moorabbin airport heading for King Island in his Cessna 182. Heading over Bass Strait, Valentich began radioing the flight tower with messages (see below) that would fuel speculation of UFO involvement to this day. No trace of Frederick or the plane has ever been found. His final radio transcript to Melbourne flight tower talked of a strange object hovering over his aircraft. ‘Can We Help?’ talks to the flight controller that received that final call.

 

Transcript from Aircraft Accident Investigation report:

 

1906 hours

Valentich: Melbourne, this is Delta Sierra Juliet. Is there any known traffic below five thousand?

Melbourne: No known traffic.

Valentich: I am... seems to be a large aircraft below five thousand.

Melbourne: What type of aircraft is it?

Valentich: I cannot affirm. It is four bright... it seems to me like landing lights.

 

1907 hours

Valentich: Melbourne, this is Delta Sierra Juliet. The aircraft has just passed over me at least a thousand feet above...

Melbourne: Roger.. and it... it is a large aircraft? Confirm.

Valentich: ... er unknown due to the speed it's travelling. Is there any airforce aircraft in the vicinity?

Melbourne: No known aircraft in the vicinity.

 

1908 hours

Valentich: Melbourne, it's approaching now from due east towards me...

Valentich: (open microphone for two seconds)

Valentich:...it seems to me that he's playing some sort of game... he's flying over me two... three times at speeds I could not identify...

 

1909 hours

Melbourne: ... roger... what is your actual level?

Valentich: My level is four and a half thousand four five zero zero...

Melbourne: ... and confirm you cannot identify the aircraft...

Valentich: ... affirmative.

Melbourne: roger... stand by...

Valentich: ... it's not an aircraft it is... (open microphone for two seconds)

Melbourne: ... can you describe the... er... aircraft?

Valentich: ... as it's flying past it's a long shape... (open microphone for three seconds)... cannot identify more than that... it has such speed... (open microphone for three seconds)... before me right now Melbourne...

 

1910 hours

Melbourne: ...roger... and how large would the... er... object be?

Valentich: ... it seems like it's stationary... what I'm doing right now is orbiting and the thing is just orbiting on top of me... also, its got a green light and sort of metallic like... it's all shiny on the outside...

Valentich: (open microphone for five seconds)... it's just vanished...

 

1911 hours

Valentich: Melbourne, would you know what kind of aircraft I've got? Is it military aircraft?

Melbourne: ...confirm the... er... aircraft just vanished...

Valentich: ... say again?

Melbourne: ... is the aircraft still with you?

Valentich: ... approaching from the south-west...

Valentich: ... the engine is rough idling... I've got it set at twenty three twenty four and the thing is...

 

1912 hours

Melbourne: ... roger... what are your intentions...

Valentich: ... my intentions are... ah... to go to King Island... ah... Melbourne that strange aircraft is hovering on top of me again... (two seconds open microphone)... it is hovering and it's not an aircraft...

Valentich: ... (17 seconds open microphone)...
