To many, the black widow and brown recluse are harbingers of death, spiders to both fear and despise. In reality these spiders are happy to be left on their own, never to cause harm to any person, let alone kill. These two spiders in the U.S. have a nasty reputation for being deadly venomous, when no verified report of death solely attributed to them has ever been documented. It will hurt A LOT but the average healthy human being should be able to process a defensive envenomation without going into critical condition. These spiders may pack quite the punch, but just remember to respect them and their space and you'll find they mean you no harm! Below are the links to my videos I referenced in today's special.

I have severe arachnophobia but the way you talk and the way you care for the animals reiterate they aren't evil helps me. Thank you!
That’s my goal! 🫡
How do you even watch the video if you have severe arachnophobia?
@@zyzzsbackpimples1414 it’s like when someone with arachnophobia gets a tarantula to get over it although I think that’s a bad idea but it’s like exposure therapy I guess it’s also entertaining and educational and I’m interested
@@JacksWorldofWildlife love that you teach us facts and not opinions regardless of if you like the animal or not. You still keep your feelings to your self and teach the facts.
@Cup soup, I used to hate spiders and I would kill everyone I saw ,Then one day I was watching a video similar to this content and , I then understood what these creatures are about and what they
Ile to eat. These creatures eat other insects primarily and also on the menu are mosquitoes. If know about mosquitoes they can and do spread diseases that can be deadly , so after learning what spiders eat , when I see a Spider Spinning a web on my porch or on one of my rose bushes I let them be , I tend to think of it this way , that spider may have saved my life or one of my family members life by catching and eating the mosquito that was Going to bite me , if if this isn't or wasn't the case I look at this way . if you have never seen a spider start from ground zero and make a big target shaped web , its certainly a sight to see., long live the arachnids .
Man, as a spider lover,and doing this for research purposes, you have serious balls to do these two. I can tell you were hurting. The light sweating, pale but also a bit flushed, bags under your eyes, maybe a bit delerious. While not life threatening, definitely not a fun experience. Well done!
I appreciate that!
Got tagged by a recluse that I didn't see, and laid on. Caused some good damage on the back of my neck. Almost every bite from them occurs because they get smooshed while trying to hide in couches or beds. They always try to run if you see them in the open.
Yup. Got one when i rolled over in bed, it got me on my side upper thigh. Left a pretty nasty scar but only provided local discomfort to where the bite was located.
I think Iv got two of those. Did they start out as a lil pimple then quickly turn into huge painful puss blisters that if squeezed will start bleeding perfusley? Then when finally healed the skin is fragile like old man skin? I really would live to now what happened to me
I just wanna say, Jack, I moved from the city to the country. Total wildlife culture shock lol. You make me feel SO much better and more comfortable about the wildlife that surrounds me now. Instead of being scared of it and running from it, I've learned to embrace and be comfortable with it. So i just wanna say thank you very much.
That’s great to hear!
Love that!!
The widow seemed to be systemically more severe, while the recluse was more severe locally.
Id say that’s accurate.
Good call doc
Yeah I was just bitten by a brown recluse, was trying to save it by catchig it in a cup but it was on my inner leg and bit me instead of going in the cup, the little bastard
@@anonco1907no good deed goes unpunished! Isn’t that the way it goes.
Yeah. The brown recluse is mostly harmless. It's the infections it gives that's really bad. Or if you react poorly to its venom and suffer actual permanent tissue damage from it.
Tbh, i didn't think anyone would actually let the black widow bite them, i thoughts it would probably just be another click bait or sth, but wow, this one got me, it's absolutely wild and crazy, but you have my respect dude!
It all depends on how your body reacts to something. Gunshot, COVID, animal venom etc. some may die, guaranteed, others, may fair like nothing happened. Could be blood type or immunity, but I wouldn’t take your experiences as one size fits all. Awesome videos though 👍🏽😎
Yeah true, one guy was shot in the arm, then died months later due to complications it caused. You never know
Absolutely
5:48 "Hey! That didn't really bite you. If it was a real bite, you would have died already." 🤣
Both of your brown recluse bites are interesting. Thanks for the info! I’ve spotted a couple in addition to a few bigger brown spiders so I was curious what a bite was like. I was bitten by a black widow when I was 11. Still remember the experience to this day. I’m 29 now. :)
Anyone with a spider bite such as the recluse bite here, with *_visible necrosis,_* should see a doctor immediately.
I do think it's important to keep in mind that everyone's body is different. Young children, the elderly, people with underlying health conditions (of which they may be unaware) etc all may very well have significantly worse reactions to these bites.
My nephew almost lost his arm from a reaction to a brown recluse spider. It was a horrifying wound.
Yeah, you're not supposed to see a sore. If you have a sore from a brown recluse bite that usually means you're having a bad reaction to it or you might be getting an infection. Most brown recluse bites are like a regular spider bite. They're red and raised. They aren't typically full on visible necrosis like in this! That said, he lets these animals inject him with WAY more venom than most people, so I think that's why he developed a sore. He probably was reacting normally to it but just got really inflamed because of the sheer amount of venom.
Anyways rule of thumb for brown recluse bites is that if a sore develops, see a doctor. You may develop an infection otherwise. I am going to go against the grain and say it's a bad idea to go to the doctor before developing a sore because like I said, most brown recluse bites are harmless. Not worth bothering the doctors over it.
Yer tryin' WAY too hard kid.
I have been up close and personal with 4 different individuals in my 54yrs whom were the unfortunate recipients of recluse bites.
Of the 4, three were happenstance, most likely bit the one time upon disturbing the arachnid.(all were in various outbuildings of property owners) The 4th however, happened while sleeping on her couch in her living room.
The previous 3:
The two youngest suffered about what you did.. But they DID bitch about it hurtin' a bit.
The 3rd older guy had one get stuck in his hair and ended up biting his back from him flailing trying to get away from something neither of us knew until AFTER the jump. LOL. His got pretty necrotic, though not a black gaping hole by no means(I've seen all the pics too) it DID get nasty tho and reminded me very much of when my father was in an explosion in 76 (I was only 8) and spent the better part of a year in the burn ward at Holy Cross. After his daily debribement, I would watch them re wrap him. THAT bite, in its worst state, looked like my father's freshly debribed 3rd degree burns. So not black and rotten but NOT good just the same. Purple as hell around it.
Now the 4th one. Mid 20s aunt of my ex. Woke up one morning made us all breakfast, complaining of her ankle hurting. Before the end of thaf day, it was the size of her calf. The next morning, she was slightly fevered, ankle was darkening with a VERY DARK scab like spot DIRECTLY on the back of her lower ankle.
Over the next weeks, it was I that took her to her to the ER then the few follow ups at her docs.
He surmised it likely became trapped under her foot when she moved in her sleep and bit her repeatedly until it could get free OR until it died.
Over those weeks I ABSOLUTELY WATCHED THIS WOMANS ANKLE BECOME NECROTIC WITH BLACK STINKING SKIN AND ALL!!
All told, she had 3 surgeries removing necrotic flesh. The gaping frigging maw in her ankle WAS a sight to behold.
It DID and DOES happen. It's all about the circumstances.
To this day some 30 plus later....
It doesn't look like her left ankle should even be functional, she lost THAT much mass around it. Def disfigured.
So, while I recognize the enormity of your berries through my arachniphobic eyes....thou art foolish and quite bombastic.
Cuz zat shit DOES happen yo!
This video is recklace in every way and you are MUCH too young to apparently recognize the vast difference in peoples individual reactions to any one thing!.
Well, here's what I think Jack: Although I've been black widow bitten several times, and not suffered as serious symptoms as you have, it seems reasonable that holding the spider down for the full nine yards is the difference.(duh) Pretty sure my bites were bite and run. What have we learned: don't hold venomous spiders down. Unless you're doing important educational videos.
You REALLY took one for the team!! Such good info! You’re amazing!!
You are very lucky. I am a primary care provider. I have had to send several patients to wound care due to severe wounds from brown recluse bites.
Great re-cap... when I saw the headline, I was hoping you weren't going to do another Black Widow bite as once was more than enough to prove your point (especially considering the dose you took). Keep up the great informational videos. I still find it interesting that of all the critters you've subjected yourself to, that giant katydid was one you weren't going to mess with. That thing looked gnarly!!
Actually I like spiders. I help them out of the bath. They keep the bugs out of my house so we live in harmony 😅 However I would not force them to bite me 😂😅
I live in MD so these are really the only two spiders that are dangerous to some degree and I had a ton of fear about them. Your vids really cleared them up a ton, they are much less scary the more you understand them!
I love this channel 👍🏼
Is the black widow still the most painful after affects?
Which insect would you say packs the most punch for it's sting?
Absolutely! Black widow was the worst! As far as insect stings, my most painful was the greater banded hornet from Thailand and most surprising was probably the wheelbug
@@JacksWorldofWildlife How about a tarantula hawk? I believe I was stung by one on the knee while riding my motorcycle. There was a bunch of them flying around with the rust colored wings and something hit me hard on the knee, felt like a rock the size of my thumbnail, followed by a sting that hurt just as much and made me stop riding immediately. It was wicked for about 20 minutes then sore for a couple days. Not much at the sting site, just a tiny red spot.
@@CarguyloganI am pretty sure he has a video being stung by the tarantula hawk!
I have been bitten by both the recluse and the widow, and I can honestly say, a wolf spider bite hurts more and made a bigger bacterial mess of my arm. The black widow bite just gave me an overall feeling of unwellness, hard to explain, but in a nutshell, I felt like five pounds of s#it in a two pound bag, best way to put it. Nothing that kept me down, just felt like a cross between being overworked and hung over at the same time. The recluse bite didn't even cause any bruising, but did make a small hole that scabbed over and just went away in short order. Again, the wolf spider was way more heinous, that bite sucked.
Why are you getting bit by so many spiders? 😭 🕷️
@@klaj6595 Oh it's just the way it goes sometimes when you are an outdoorsman. Can't really help it. These critters don't go out of their way to bite me, but sometimes I mistakenly get into their space and they feel I am a threat, so they let me know that I am bothering them. Not a big deal, they are just living creatures like us, they mean no harm, they just want to live and protect themselves, like we all do.
Whoa I didn't know wolf spiders had venom 😱 I thought they were harmless. I mean really they still are. I've got one living in my living room rn. I told her she can stay as long as she eats allllllll the bugs that make it in here. She occasionally startles me by being under a shirt or something that I pick up off the floor but other than that we're gravy. I'm a little more skeeved now that I know she's venemous 😮😭
@@meganbaker3598 Wolf spiders do have a mild venom. It mainly causes itching, mild swelling, and slight pain unless you're allergic to it. The biggest risk with a wolf spider bite comes with infection. If you don't keep it clean while it heals, bacteria will have a field day with the wound. Again, everyone reacts slightly differently to venom, so take what I say with a grain of salt.
Your videos are awesome!
We can tell that black widow got you good by the way your speech pattern changed.
Also you have quite the pain tolerance threshold, so to hear you say how painful it was is a testament to how bad they can be.
Thanks for all you and the crew there does for us out here! 👍
Stay safe.
Amazing video man deserves a lot more views than coyote Peterson… ur very honest and I gave u a follow for the respect of going through all that 🙌 keep it up 🔥 sucks to see u suffer tho man 😂🙌
All spider bites are a NO WAY for me. I'm from Canada and I had a huge echymose the size of a makeup remover pad and it wasn't even venomous. I discovered that day that I was allergic to spider bites. I can't imagine being bitten by one of these.
Youre wild bro, you deserve millions of subscribers
The fact you took another bite from the Brown Recluse and not another from the Black Widow tells a lot. From your videos, it would seem like the Black Widow has been the worst bite/sting you have received to date.
Indeed 😵💫
Detroit loves ya Jack, but we have both those spiders up here, and ive come to the conclusion that you're a couple fries short of a happy meal. 😊
I'm convinced your absolutely insane 😂😂😂
May or may not be inaccurate
For MOST spiders as long as you're not pulling spiders from their food or egg sacks, you should be okay. I would never advise removing spiders from an egg sack or web with eggs/babies. They will likely bite, and that's just rude :P
I got bitten by a spider as a kid while I was sleeping, never identified the spider but we always figured it was a Redback from my symptoms and you talking about back pain brings back memories. I got bitten on the neck and I can remember telling my mum something was wrong with my neck, that I'd broken it or something because every time I tried to move from lying on my back my spine just felt like fire.
Ouch!!! Red backs are no joke!
Is a redback a black widow? Or something different?
@@meganbaker3598 I always thought they were related, given their similarities in behaviour and appearance but I could definitely be wrong :)
@meganbaker3598 a redback is a spider similar to black widow and almost look the same but is native to Australia but is much more dangerous than the black widow
Yeah, I figured venom wouldn't rot your skin away lol. Had a friend with a missing thumb and claimed a cotton mouth bite him and the skin rotted off lol. People make up crazy stories about animal bites
I learned that just because one is bitten, lets say by a king snake does not mean they will live because they are non-poisionous. It is determined if one is allergic to the venom or the bacteria that may be transmitted, for instance. Just like a bee bite may not kill you BUT if one is allergic to bees or wasp, etc, it definitely may. I learned this by getting bit by a king snake by accidentally stepping on it and sent to a scientific venom doctor at a medical center that I worked at that retains venom for poisonous bites. So one can die from an insect bite if they are severely allergic to that venom or gets a bacteria that turns septic.
I think I got bit by a Recluse while back country backpacking. I treated it like Poison Ivy and in about a week it was healed.
In no way would I want to endure what that Widdow did! Nope nope nope!
They both seemed equally bad in their own individual way.
An argument can be made
I've held tons and tons of giant wild spooders, never once been bitten by a spider. I also have tarantulas. Old world and New world. held them all, never been bitten. I do not own an OBT ;'D
So what spider causes subconscious arachnophobia in humans? Humans are instinctively afraid of spiders even before any negative experience. The heart rate increase from unnoticeable video frame images of spiders has been proven. At some point in human evolution we have become fearful of spiders. I’m curious what the cause of that reaction is.
I've gotten bitten by both and the black widow was by far the worst. Thought I was a gonner. Extreme pain, fever could hardly breathe etc could hardly walk. Been bitten several times at once by brown recluse and it had poison going through my body and my bites looked just like yours.
I think this guy had a mild case compared to what I went through through.
Well, I dont want you to die but, you can try the brazillian wandering spider vs sidney funnel web.😂
Dude, I wish I could feel any sympathy for you, but you asked for it. I wish you well.
I’m not gonna lie I’m 23 years old and this whole time I’ve thought if u get bit by one of these spiders you better rush to the hospital. I’m pretty familiar with nature too which makes me even more surprised that I’m just finding out it’s really not a big deal to get bitten
This brown recluse was sitting on your last scar like “yea buddy this is what I can do to you if you test me”
Update? Guy still alive?
Idc if you put lil pink shirts on them 🕷🕷, I will crush them if they're too close.
I’m alive
@@JacksWorldofWildlife 👍 👍 👍
INTERESTING :)
THANK YOU FOR SHARING :)
THANK YOU FROM ISRAEL :)
black widow is worse
I love these videos but the music is a bit distracting for me when you are presenting information on the spiders. Maybe it’s just me idk.
Brah got deadly spiders biting him crazy boy you crazy!!!
I was bitten by a black widow on my small toe. I used to keep some of my shoes and kids shoes in our three season room. I put on my shoe and then like a couple seconds later felt a sting and I immediately took my shoe off. Like 4 to 5 minutes later I felt heat in my foot and pain! I felt terrible the rest of the day but I didn’t go to Dr or hospital because I wasn’t sure what happened. I went to sleep with the help of sleeping medicine and when I woke up the nightmare started! I didn’t wake up….. my wife woke me up and my toe was Red….. like red red. I was soaked in sweat. Anyway I didn’t end up going to hospital till 3 days after and till this day my right testicle is 6 inches larger than my left. The man in the middle suffered the worst! He is now 14.5 inches which is 1 .5 inches larger than before the bite! I’ll never forget that morning but because of what I went through all my friends now keep there shoes outside!
Say what?
Hahaha!
You didn't wake up?
So you're in a coma or dead!
How did you write this?
& how did it effect your testicle & Johnson when the bite was on your toe?
& you gained over an extra inch ?
Mines not small, I'd say avg. Never had any complaints, but I wouldn't mind an extra inch.
Was it the little toe on your left or right foot?
(Asking for a friend)
If it wasn’t that bad do it every year on this day😂 I’d love to see it and it would raise awareness like crazy
Would you dare to try out the funnel web spider or the brazillian wandering spider?
Not likely
Good decision. @@JacksWorldofWildlife
Funnel Web next? JK. Black Widows I'm fine with but the Recluse causes me to grab my torch. I know that necrosis does not happen with every bite but there is that chance of it happening. A chance I don't want to take. My mom knows someone who got bit by a recluse on his head and almost died. His head swelled up like a balloon.
I would love to see you visit Australia, and check out some of our spider bites.
Spiders in Australia take things to a whole new level
Yeah lets see if he is brave enough to try a funnel-web spider bite 😜
@@AAONMS1 that's not smart... They're not just going to make you sick but can kill you. He did come here and test our infamous Bullants.
He tested Myrmecia Gulosa and Myrmecia Pyriformis
If he comes to Australia and takes a bite from a funnel web i would be mind blown
If this guy says somethings bad I believe it! 😅
I must be getting bit by a black widow everyday, because my back hurts and i sound like you everyday lol
Thank you for all the information, but ill stick with a puppy bite.
Great. Now get bite by a Sydney funnel-web and prove us all wrong again. 😁
I still laugh when you talk about your Black Widow bite testimonial, Jack. You looked sad as you sought a respite from the mind-numbing aching but that's really the selling point. Anyway, stay safe Jack and have you looked into the late Bill Haast? I haven't heard back on your thoughts.
Yes I am aware of Bill Haast, he’s a very influential person in my field.
@@JacksWorldofWildlife I've followed his work since I was young as, like you, I love the misunderstood and dangerous animals as opposed to the "cute" ones. When I see a Great White preying on a seal, a Black Widow eating a cricket or a Wolf taking down a caribou, I'm like ...ohh how sweet. I've fed spider's about my property and made habitats for a wide range of predators. Anyway, Jack stay safe and I can't wait for your next video.
6:00 ...missed a golden opportunity to replicate the melting man scene in "Robocop" ...help me!!!! 😂😂😂
Black widow bite sounds similar to opiate withdrawals
Take a bite from our famous sydney funnel web 😮 id be super keen to see what thats like
Can I just say,
My abusive step mom , when I was a child, made me clean out cellar around a well that went to our house (on our property, we had a farm & 36 acres too )
But anyway she was all mad , and just started throwing the cinder blocks off a pile they were in
We had 1 tiny flashlight, no phones back then
And she screamed (to her credit I will say this bxtch caught the spider in a random mason jar lmao)
But she got bit by a black widow lollll
She had to go to the hospital & was basically out of commission for 2 days
I just want to say , for younger me, thank you widow spider 🕷️ 🖤
[ I'm scared of spiders still, but that 1 showed me they are heroes sometimes 😅😊 ]
So yeah I'm just here, being future me, watching spider vids laughing lol
Thanks Jack for doing these so that we can see and learn!!
I lived in the most infested BR home I’ve ever seen (20 sightings a day!) and not a single bite. And they were def sleeping with me. Yay farmhouses
I often found them on my person. But a little flick and that’s fixed. Shake your clothes and towels lol
"DO NOT REPLICATE " Oh thanks for that warning ⚠️ I was just about to go grab the 2 most poisonous spiders in the USA to bite Me all on my own free will.
Says no one. Ever.
🤷♂️ you’d be surprised how many people are convinced that by making these videos I’m encouraging people to copy me lol. Just covering my bases lol
I really appreciate the way you encourage us to be respectful of our fauna, especially those that give many people the heebie jeebies…(spiders!). Unfortunately I am still spooked….
Maybe this Friday’s video will help 😉
The infection from a bite site not being cleaned properly is the real danger. I think most people probably don't even know how to properly keep a wound clean. They just pop a band aid on it and leave it. Maybe clean it once then when the band aid falls off they start picking at it.
My husband got but by a brown recluse once. He packed the wound with sugar which I thought was absolutely insane. But it worked beautifully.
@@meganbaker3598
That's interesting.
I had a vet recommend I pack sugar around a bad wound my dog had.
Didn’t change my mind little brother.
I see a Recluse or Widow in my AO? I’m shooting it.
Honestly glad y’all didn’t die because you might be nuttier than a squirrel turd, but it’s entertaining.
Murica. 🇺🇸
I've seen a lot of your videos lately, and you're very brave. This one is good, cause I have found brown recluses... in my bed! That had me worried, but it's good to know that my limbs won't fall apart if they bite me.
At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if you release the "Which bite is worse? Brazilian wandering VS funnel web spider" video 💀💀
😂 wouldn’t go that far although I just released a video about handling a Brazilian wandering spider 👀
I’d rather take my chances with the brown recluse
When you were describing everything you were feeling made me think "hmm, sounds like what I feel most days with an autoimmune disorder." Especially when I'm having a flare.
Ouch!
Omfg you didn't just do the cali black widow did you??? Lmao your gonna hurt I mean HURT
😂 it’s a southern black widow, the ones in Cali are westerns although toxicity is super equivalent.
Let’s do the Australian red back spider next or the Sydney funnel-web spider 👍 all the years of being bitten makes you immortal right?
😂 something like that
How and why aren't you getting millions of viewers.
I don’t know 😵💫😵💫😵💫
When this guy says it hurts I listen
The video we've all been waiting for!!
You see that hole in my arm, that’s nothing I’m surprised you even noticed it. Brown recluse who????
🤧🤧🤧
Do not take his experience for what you may experience! I’ve been bitten by both and had week-long hospitalizations both times, almost losing my life with the black widow, and serious cellulitis and a crater scar where my flesh rotted out with the brown recluse.
My sister was bitten by a male black widow (I believe) I was really young she stayed in the hospital too not sure how long, I remember how sick she was prior to the hospital stay. I remember her bawling she was definitely in pain
I'm glad you came out okay and to have both bites! That's awful
I remember being your age and being able to heal quickly and fight off infections with no problem. I'm 42 now and my body is nowhere as resilient as it was 20 years ago. Regarding the Brown Recluse bites, if you were elderly, I can guarantee that that whole red patch would have sloughed off and taken a year or more to heal, maybe even lose that arm. Now, having said this, I super enjoy your channel. You are crazy man, in a good way, and you are doing a service for us all that have seriously wondered what these bite outcomes would actually be like. Carry on, and I wish you the best.
Yup these tests are only within the parameters of an average healthy human adult. The elderly and very young children/babies could have different results.
this sounds like an american "body"
Exactly.. I'm in my 50's and finding myself allergic to different things that I wasn't before..and longer healing time in general
My husband is an average healthy human adult and was bitten by a brown recluse, but had a much more necrotic patch. Did bacteria testing and it was nothing, just the spider bite. Every human is different.
I have no respect for this guy
Awesome recap vid. Now for a game of Would You Rather:
1. The same black widow envenomation, or
2. FOUR vespa Tropicana stings, one on each limb? 😈
Four Vespa tropica stings 🫡
@@JacksWorldofWildlife Dang, black widow must be no joke
@@stevenjones8575 It's not. I had one that made me really sick. An acquaintance of mine ended up in the hospital from one. (Both bites were accidental).
Coyote Peterson has some competition lol
You're crazy but I like you 😂
Oh also the most effective treatment for widow pain is VALIUM so if bitten people should seek er care and Valium for pain for a day or two. Fun fact it works better than Dilaudid and this has been studied in reference to latrodectism
How do you not have a southern accent jack? 😂
Both are scary, but I'd say the black widow is worse.
I wish you would do an episode on a sac spider if you can find one.. Like apparently they are venomous too but I've also read their venom is a bit overrated by some people..
We have so many brown recluse spiders in this house and ours here in South Africa seems to be even bigger, like huge in comparison to yours. O.O
Hi Justine, fellow South African here :) Sac spiders are more or less exactly the same as brown recluse.
I guess it makes sense that "you'll have to go to the doctor" would seem like a fate worse than death to Americans.
😂 with the bills that accompany doctor visits in the states it’s not hard to see why.
Brown Recleese - correct plural form, thank you
😉😂
You will probably need multiple recluse bites for that strong necrosis or a longer bite like the widow bite
You are amazing, the things you put yourself through just to educate us on this awesome creatures. I was bitten by a red back when I lived in Australia, a nowhere near as venomous relative of the black widow, after stupidly plunging my arm into somewhere I didn’t examine first, and I was lucky to escape with soreness and redness that was eased by ice. I wouldn’t like to take a black widow bite so we’re grateful you’re here to do it for us 😅
The red back is every bit as venomous as the North American black widow species! Pinch and release bites are generally not too severe, which is something it sounds like you’re already aware of.
Unfortunately yes I have experienced this the hard way 😂 It was sore, red and swollen but I don't think I could cope with the severe envenomation you endured here
"I'll let you be the judge."
Takes another recluse bite.
Uses replay footage for the widow.
Well folks, I think Jack's opinion is apparent, even if you didn't watch the end where he says it out right.
👀😂
Have you been bit by a Brazilian Wandering spider?
No, but I have put one on my face
Would strong pain killers help for the widow bite??
Potentially!
This man is a hero.
Whatta trooper. The fact that you have to pin them down in such a way that they were forced to bite you shows how docile and tame these spiders can be. I have four beautiful widows otw and can't wait to start caring for them.
Id also love to know if our redback spider bite is as bad as the black widow!
It should be considerably worse, though my bite was extreme.
@@JacksWorldofWildlife thanks for your videos 🤙my dad was bitten by a redback on the neck years ago while on a mates fishing boat found a nest of redback under the bed he slept on, he also had sea sickness 😆 said it was the worst day of his life
Insane
At this stage in my life , I'd be a goner....!
God bless you young man..I pray your endeavors result in immunity to all venoms..
Next video, Brazilian wandering bite.
😂
Have you done a video with the Brazilian wandering spiders yet
Check my channel home page 👀
😂 jack that brown recluse f’d you up !
😂 I’m still kickin!
I have been binging your videos they are awesome for info on spiders, an advice id make is try to keep the music a lower so i can easily hear what you say instead of the other way around
Your 1st video I saw on my feed was the black widow extended cut, and anyone willing to go through that deserves a sub and a like, and as entertaining and informative as it was I'm so glad it brought me to your channel, the bites and stings are definitely awesome but learning so much more about so many different insects and animals. But yeah black widow I'd say takes the cake just for how long and painful it was for you

Exactly my comment 🙌🙌
I agree 100% I wouldn’t have thought the southern widow would be this bad with even a severe envenomation but WOW. I’ve always been told the brown recluses are the ones to really watch out for. FYI I have a black widow in my back yard that I’ve been feeding for about a year now and she is absolutely HUGE! Bigger than I’ve seen on UA-cam. She makes thousands of baby’s too lol.. I live way out in the sticks.
The editing with you pumped up after the bite, and then going through it in the tub was hilarious.
