Yeah, except for the fact that a scaled up cockroach would get crushed under it's own weight. No exoskeleton can work at human size, or anything close to that (ever notice there's nothing like an ant, cockroach or spider of any size?).

The weight of the skeleton itself would be way too much for any muscular system to hold up, it would collapse on itself in a heap.

...and yes, I'm up too late and bored as hell.
