they cant kill you. Their main defense would be to spray you with a weak acetic acid solution (vinegar) from their tail whip.

They are not dangerous. They look like scorpions, but they are not scorpions. They are insects.
Is this related to the false legend that Jerusalem crickets (potato bugs) can kill you?
