The only way to purge my brain was to spread it. The link on my name is a YTMND I just made. It’s worth the wait if you’re not already scared enough. Sleep well tonight.
Raid dont work, i tired killing a thumbnail sized one and it lived for about 7 minutes afterward, acting all drunk, crawling around backwards, squirming, the drop to the floor real suddenly…
That’s scarier than sober spiders.
Tell me you guys haven’t seen Arachnaphobia? http://imdb.com/title/tt0099052/
He lit one on fire with an aerosol can and an aim-n-flame, and then the thing jumped at him while on fire, but I think he shot it with a nail guy. Sorry, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen it, myself. Another problem with burning spiders (any kid who’s had a box of matches and a daddy-longlegger can tell you this), is that they pop when they burn. Ewwwwww
I’m arachnophobic, this picture realy freaks me
I’d sell the goddamn house the instant I saw that
%^$!~
Damnit I can take one spider with a freaking boot but those would kick my arse!
Where I live they don’t come that big, luckily
but if I’d see that in my basement I wouldn’t try and take’m out myself.. would probably get some bug killer pro’s to exterminate that.
Fascinating photo though. Had to look at it multiple times.. I think I’ll show it around the office and freak everybody out :-p
what kind of spider is it?
After seeing that picture I must have checked the room for spiders about 4 times now! :-/
Spiders — no big deal. But if it were BEES!? Auugh! AAuuuggh! Whimper! whimper? [Assume fetal position and hope death comes quickly].
I don’t even think the flame thrower would down that beast. The babies would perish, but I can see the mother hurtling around the house on fire, screaming and igniting your furniture, before launching itself at your face for one final attack.
Damn spiders.
If they were slow and ponderous, maybe making a funny noise when they walked, that would okay. But instead they run up your leg when you’re wearing nothing but boxer shorts causing you to tear them from your body and run into the street where all your neighbours see your downstairsy bits.
Or so I imagine…

Nuke the entire site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
My dad has stories about spray-painting head-sized spiders in his dad’s basement as they clung to the walls. The paint kills the spider and leaves a cool silhouette. He grew up on 10th Street in Omaha, NE, along the river.
I dont really see the problem with spiders, most are ahrmless, and you jsut need to keep your distance from the rest. the only bugs that creep me out are dragonflies, i was bitten by one when i saw 8, the wound got infected and i wasnt all that happy for a few weeks with a painfull, hard to move arm, still wondering why it bit me tho
I’m so agreeing with CJMack…
Napalm? Pshaw – white phosphor all the way!
Sell the house? Who in thier right mind would buy a house with a spider-army in it?
I think I’d leave this to professionals… or at least someone else than myself!
I was in Zimbabwe Africa once (don’t ask why, it’s a long story) and the lodge we stayed in was freaking infested with spiders about that size! We spent about 3 hours going around our room killing them so we could sleep without worring about them eating our faces in the middle of the night. In the above comment, Spinksy was 100% correct about the death by flame method! We found one spider that was so huge, when I tried to smash it with a boot I only hit its leg and its LEG left a splatter mark in the wall!! JUST ITS LEG!! So we busted out the makeshift flamethrower (hairspray and lighter) and torched that sucker from 3 inches away. It dropped off the wall, ran like a spider out of hell under a couch! We all screamed like little girls as we watched the couch go up in flames! We put the couch out and found the body hanging from a spring inside the couch. That experience will be burned (no pun intended lol!) into my mind forever! Lesson learned: fire doesn’t solve everything LOL!
Well… If you have a mouse-infestation, I think I can safely say that THAT little army should take care of your problem.
Thankfully, I live too far north to get those big spiders that eat moose for lunch. Though, I usually train the spiders that do wander into my home. They don’t get in my bed or in my food, and I don’t get my boot onto them. Takes about a day, but it saves me from having to kill bugs (which have wings and thus aren’t spiders)
That picture, though… *shudder* I understand why some people are scared of spiders.
Oh gods. Kill it with fire and holy water.
IT’S HUGE!!!!
Reminds me of friggin’ huge ass camel spiders. Those things can eat your face off, and they’re mean enough to do it.
On a side note, the exterminator from Dirty Jobs has been over to my house a few times. Just thought that was cool…
doesn’t look that big, my science teacher has a spider thats bigger than my face, and if that was in my grilled cheese, i’d probably shove it in my neighbours letterbox…. or blend it
you all are pansies…check this one out
oops….

You call that a spider? This is a spider.

Not a spider but still image finding this in your bed.

*whimper* I was finally starting to stop thinking about Cloverfield enough to sleep, and now I’ve seen this picture in 2 different places today. No sleep for me again tonight. T_T
Hey, a guy a YTMND made a site with you picture!

“Spiders are cute. I hate cockroaches. Those disease ridden slimefilled carcases”
I particularly like Cockroaches.. most of them, the Death Heads, Hissers, and Cuban Greens are especially neat.
Once I ate Nymphs with Ice cream because the Travel channel said they were filled with protein so I decided to try it out, unfortunately freezing does not kill roaches and after a few bites they came back alive.. it was interesting but unpleasant, the shells got stuck in my teeth.
I keep them as food for my Monitors.
Arachnids and Arthropods in general fascinate me though my profession is Herpetology.
Seeing that would give me no cause for alarm, I’d most likely capture it and confine it, I have no fear of them but even a 4″ spider isn’t fun to wake up to.
BlueLemonade: Thanks for pointing it out again. And thanks for NOT being a sockpuppet.
I live in Romania, biggest spider I’ve seen must have been about 3-4 centimeters long. Would love to see a big bastard like that one burn though. Not afraid of spiders but there are few things as a spider on fire.
“We need backup!”
The REALLY scary thing is my room’s corner’ look suspiciously similar to that picture, right down to the webbing…..
(Starts looking for cans of raid)
Holy crap, was that Ungoliant?
Holy crap, am I really that much of a nerd?
I live in australia where not a day goes by without at least one spider that size is in your house. Also, most of them can kill you. Come to think of it, most things over here seem to be able to kill you. WHY AM I STILL ALIVE!!!
