The heating elements on two tanks containing spiders and their termite snacks had exploded and dislodged the metal tops allowing them to escape.
I'm finding this very hard to believe. I think if the elements had EXPLODED the animals would have been cooked well before they exploded, and would have been killed by the explosion afterward.
Honestly, this whole thing sounds like a practical joke, an urban myth, or the Sun's usual *cough* quality reporting.
