Hilarious that someone went to the trouble of downvoting you for this (comment is gray as I type this). Someone really doesn't like spiders.

The Huntsman spider in Australia is similarly harmless one might believe - a useful pest controller as well.

Until one crawls across the windshield of your car whilst driving.

I'm glad I was the driver when it happened. I can still remember the screams of my then co-pilot, however. She definitely had arachnophobia.

I was shocked to come back and now find 17 points on it. Some people are absolutely petrified by spiders, and I take great joy in taking the harmless ones and letting them crawl on my hands and so on. They're a very polarizing creature
