I may have heard a similar thing on a video that compared an elephant sized mouse with a mouse sized elephant.

Neither could survive because evolution designed their bodies for the relative pressure they exist in. This is also related to how fast their hearth beats go.

Human sized bugs could not exist for the same pressure reason also.
