Solid, I'm afraid your leg wasn't just pulled, but nearly yanked completely out of its socket. I can assure you that unlike those areas of our great nation south of the Mason-Dixon line, the only things that will kill you in New England are natives pissed-off at yet another batch of rude tourists, or a moose with an attitude. Having spent my first 18 years all over the wilds of Maine, I'll say you'd be hard pressed to find a native spider with a body over 1.5" in length, let alone something approaching the size of a camel spider <shudder>.
