A Pittsburgh area man got a little more than he bargained for when he went to his local Wal-Mart. He was shopping there with his two kids and decided to pick up some bananas. However, when he went to go reach for the bananas, he got something he certainly wasn't expecting. Seems there was a live scorpion hiding under one of the boxes. The man was pinched by the feisty arthropod, causing the poor guy to pull his hand away in anguish.

I yanked my arm out and flung it, and this scorpion flopped to the ground. I was standing there in disbelief looking and there was another shopper there and people started to converge, and sure enough it was a scorpion.

The man says that a Wal-Mart representative claims the fruit company that transported the bananas was in total disbelief that a scorpion could survive that long of a trip.
