Alien hunters spot bus-sized spider on mysterious remote island
Bizarre Google Earth sighting sparks wild speculation about 'hidden giant species' lurking in the oceans
UFO spotters have made the astonishing claim that a gigantic bus-sized spider is lurking somewhere in the ocean.
A Youtube conspiracy theorist called MexicoGeek claimed to have found images of the mega-spider on Google Earth, which offers access to satellite imagery of the entire world.
"The crab itself looks enormous, about the size of a bus,"; he wrote.
"This is an awesome discovery and just goes to prove that scientists don't have the slightest clue about the hidden giant species that exist in the oceans of the world.
"At this size, it would devour an entire person to satisfy its hunger.
"So watch out for this giant spider when you are on your next fishing trip and be aware: you may be the next catch."
However, there are reasons to be doubtful about the sighting.
Normally, UFO spotters post the coordinates of any weird things they spot on Google Maps, so other people can go and see them.
At the time of writing, no coordinates have been posted.
