Funny I cant imagine being such a 'girly man' that a lizard jumping on you could freak you out.. How do people get that way ?
You'd be amazed at the amount of even "tough guys" that are freaked out by reptiles. I used to manage an exotic reptile shop, and the amount of people that get freaked out is funny. ( I had snakes topping 23 FT and 375lbs and monitors up to 7 ft long and 50 lbs). I have found that most guys turn into little girls when dealing with the animals I used to deal with. I find it hillarious, but then again I am a MASSIVE pansy when it comes to a little spider. LOL
