10: The Giant Huntsman Spider
The giant huntsman spider is the biggest spider in the world based on leg span. They are quick and enormous! There are over 1,000 of these species found around pretty much everywhere in the world that is warm and tropical, from Australia to South America.
9: Cerbalus Aravaensis
Is there anything worse than taking a leisurely stroll through the deserts of Israel only to be confronted by one of the world's largest and meanest spiders? No, I didn't think so. The last thing I want when strolling anywhere is for a massive 5.5-inch (14 cm) spider to jump out of the sand and start biting me in the face.I’m just kidding, spiders don’t do that!!
8: The Brazilian Wandering Spider
Let me introduce you to a good friend of mine, The Brazilian wandering spider. This furry Brazilian arachnid looks very much at home in the jungles of the Amazon, but definitely not on my bedroom wall. While it is indeed one of the biggest spiders in the world, the Brazilian wandering spider is also considered by the Guinness Book of World Records to be the most venomous on the entire planet.
7: The Camel Spider
Camel spiders are nightmarish creatures that are hairy and look ferocious. Their scary appearance has inspired many urban legends and terrified humans for centuries. They were rumored to be half the size of a large man and ate camel stomachs and sleeping soldiers during the Gulf War.
6: The Hercules Baboon Spider
Do you know what’s 8 inches long (20 cm) and thick like a baboon's fingers? Exactly, it is the Hercules baboon spider, native to the East African nation of Nigeria. The color and shape of the spider is strikingly similar to a baboon’s hands, and baboons often eat them, making them aggressive towards primates (including humans).
5: Face-Sized Tarantula
Can you guess how big the face-sized tarantula is? That's right, it's about the size of your face. And yes, the first thing that comes to mind is a vicious face hugger from the Alien movies, except even worse because it's a spider. With a leg span of eight inches across, this spider can easily cover your face and bite your nose. I just hope that never happens to anyone.
4: The Colombian Giant Tarantula
This is one mean-looking tarantula. You can find the Colombian giant tarantula, or giant redleg spider (Megaphobema robustum) wandering through the southern tropical rainforests of Colombia, as well as the Amazon of Brazil. While there are hundreds of species of spiders found in the Amazon, the Colombian giant tarantula is one of the biggest.
3: The Grammostola Anthracina
This is probably the most terrifying spider with the absolute most boring name. First described by renowned researcher Karl Ludwig Koch in 1842, the Grammostola anthracina is a massive spider often found in South America, especially in Uruguay.
2: The Brazilian Salmon Pink Bird Eater
If you are a fan of birds, sorry to tell you that you wont like this spider, since we have now moved into the realm of the bird eaters. The third largest spider on the planet is the Brazilian salmon pink bird eater tarantula. They get big fast!! While it does seem a little strange for one of the most menacing insects on earth to be salmon pink, it is true.
1: The Goliath Bird Eater
Coming in at first place is the king of the spiders. This is the one-foot long Goliath bird eater, weighing up to 6 ounces and living an average lifespan of 20 years. Of course, only if you are a female. Male Goliath bird eaters only live roughly five years, which is still longer than other male tarantulas who only make it about a year.

There has recently been a find of a dangerous insect in Ireland 'the county cork spoon wielding woodlouse' apparently there have been 3 confirmed cases of woodlice sneaking up on people, crawling up their bodies whilst they're seated and whacking them over the back of the head with spoons...👀 🇨🇮🏸

Me too, why do I do this too myself :P
Same 😂
Me too, for any spider bigger than a 50 pence coin. Grateful for living in a flat
I will say some people have overcome their fear of spiders by watching videos (no not the ones that say the whole eat your face, while funny its fear mongering in Most cases) education about a thing can help with fear when you understand that a lot of times spiders just wanna hide from us. Also fun fact tarantulas can't see well xD
same
Me: *watches this*
Also me: *looks at the huntsman spider in our bathroom*
People are capturing deadly spiders while us getting scared by a spider (yes I have it too on my bathroom)
Tf 🤣
We used to have a bunch of banana trees in our backyard. There were these horrifying hand-sized spiders making their webs under the canopy. Those were bad enough, but then we had HUGE centipedes hiding under the fallen leaves that one day decided to explore the inside of our house. Giant spiders on the trees and giant centipedes hiding under them. Needless to say, that was the final straw and we had them cut down.
My little brother was only a toddler at the time and one bite from one of those monsters could have been enough to put him in the hospital. O_O;
im having nightmares tonight
My number 1 phobia is a centipede no matter how small they are
Hi
Bananas are actually grass, not trees :). In Central Europe I usually use a vacuum cleaner or just walk on spiders.
The camel spiders aren't actually spider's at all they have there own genus the more you know Katrina.
They also live in the southwest part of the United States not just Iraq
If only they were easier to aquire
killerdude666 for goodness sake Katrina!
She actually said they aren't
@DARKDAYZGAMESDDG and they’re not that dangerous either they’re actually quite good to have around just like huntsman spiders daddy longs and wolf spiders
Im pretty sure a slipper wont do for these.
A flamethrower should work ok
No, they like dress shoes.
@@Gardylmon51 that's got to be the best comment I've ever seen
My teacher was on vacation in Mexico and she saw a tarantula in hrr hotel room. She put rubber boots on and went to crush it, except it didn't crush, she just climbed on it lol
Thank god I don’t have slippers. I wear soft fuzzy socks 🥰
When I was in high school in Seattle my mom worked at a pet supply/breeding warehouse, and we cared for a Goliath for a year. His name was Samson. Thank you for this spider video.
If I see that spider on the toilet he can have the whole house let me just get my things brhuu
I got bit on my cheekbone when i was young. We used to go camping alot and i woke up one morning , the entire left side of my face was so swollen my eye was even swelled shut. It was so itchy but hurt. Mom took me to ER and i had to get several shots and stay in there to be monitored all day to make sure it didnt get worse. ...it was horrifying to know i had a apider ON MY FACE!!!!! AND WHERE DID IT GO???? I was young so i thought it had laid eggs in my face.....probably the moat traumatic event of childhood lol
Damn😖😖
That sucks
Jeeeez
I Got Bitten By My Cousin's CGK (Chaco Golden Knee) dunno if i Spell That Right.. And It's Not Funny.
When I was in the military I was stationed in the Philippines. And I was staying in the house and I woke up one morning and I could not see out of right eye.I looked in the mirror and the whole right side of my face.arm and hand was all swollen up. I went to the (sick bay ) emergency room. They told me it was either a spider that bit me or a centipede. The swelling only lasted for about a day.
Spider:hey
Me:alright im moving to across the world bye
Isla Owen true
Imagine hiking and you sit down for a break only to look over and see a huge camel spider chillin next to you in your shade
I'll be cool if it's an arm length away, if it's right next to me I'd throw myself of a waterfall to wash off the fear
@@agama5538 I wouldn’t even be okay with it being in the same state as me
Imagine seeing a huge spider in the toilet after taking a sh*t
I actually woke up during a camping trip with a camel spider chilling on my face
I feel you man accept it wasn't a camel spider, i was awake and felt it move through my hair into my face, looked at the underbody as it ran over my eye and threw it and my face off when it tried climbing in my nose
I was once visiting relatives in Australia, and made a joke about having to extended my vacation if I got bit by a local "bird-eating spider". (Eastern Tranatula, "Phlogius crassipes".) I knew they were non-fatal, and recovery would be a couple of weeks. My Aunt, (a nurse,) after an eye roll, left the room for a moment and came back with a big white book with lots of books marks. She opened to one of the marked pages, and handed it to me. "Read." And I read about how incredibly painful the bite was...
As always thank you so very much for your video.
"This is a 1 ft Goliath Birdeater"
*Shows a little Avicularia Spider
ye, she hasn't been very accurate recently
EWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!
Actually I think goliaths have pink toes before they molt. So an adult doesn't have pink toes but the molts before that do....
She looks like my arachnie! Rip baby girl,i miss you so much💔😭 🕷️
Goliath bird eaters rarely even get 1 foot they usually get around 9 to 10 inches
When I was about 13, I used to always eat Frosted Flakes with bananas cut up in it for breakfast. One morning I was eating and I got a sharp pinch in my gum, I thought it was just a hard piece of cereal, so I bit down again and it really hurt!! I reached in my mouth and pulled out a big spider and from there, I was hysterical!! Jumping around the room then I picked up my spoon and smashed it to bits!! Check your cereal!!👣👣
Ohhhh HELL NAHHHHHHHH
@@lightninggaming016
I know, it freaked me the hell out!!!
@@sherriehaynes8811 Did you need to be taken to the hospital or something to get yourself check out? You could’ve been bitten by something dangerous.
@@Drheims
No, sorry, that was many years ago but thank you for caring, much love!!

Well thanks for the thumbnail, guess I'll try pooping standing up from now on.
Sees thumbnail pic... sorry toilet looks like your getting replaced. ‘ racks shotgun ‘
Now this is another one of my favourite topics. Spiders are amazing creatures from a distance. My favourites from this list would have to be the Goliath Bird Eater, Face-Sized Tarantula, and the Brazilian Salmon Pink Bird Eater. But again, from a distance!
In the picture of the video
Me: opens door*
Spider : hey give me personal distance i am pooping
Me: hungry but tried to avoid my family from bananas in prevention of eating spiders.
Also me: Continues to watch random spider videos.
Last year when I was sleeping, I had a grown wolf spider crawl on my face.
Managed to keep my cool & throw it off.
Wolf spiders are all over here in Oklahoma, they are hunters of mean spiders, like the brown recluse, so I always try to leave them in peace, very beautiful spider.
Asks us if we've ever been bitten by a spier when like 100% of us has all woken up to a bug bite out of nowhere many many times before...
"Not considered to be venomous" is not something you should say about any spider because they are literally all venomous.
"Brazilian wondering spider" shows a tiny jumping spider and a tarantula.
"King Baboon spider" shows a wolf spider that looks absolutely nothing like a KB
"Face-sized tarantula" isn't even a thing, that's a ghost ornamental. They are also not at all related to the Goliath Bird Eater, they're a completely different species. Goliaths are Theraphosa, and Ghost Ornamentals are Poecilotheria.
"Exotic pet underworld" makes it sound like you can only get tarantulas off the black market or shady websites. Tarantulas are not like tigers or monkeys as pets, they're very legal and easy to come by.
"One of the most menacing insects".... it's a spider. I thought this was pre-school knowledge by now that spiders aren't insects.
"Goliath Birdeater" shows a pink-toe tarantula. Easy mistake, despite them looking nothing like each other, because a Nat Geo documentary did this as well.
It's astounding how every single top 10 video or documentary on spiders gets almost every 'fact' completely wrong. Goes to show there's not enough actual facts about spiders of any kind out there, and people do research by watching outdated or poorly researched documentaries that they think are true because it's Nat Geo and they're supposed to be reputable.
I like the way u work hard for spreading info.....:)
10:35 I dont think those two red leg tarantulas were fighting...
They weren't fighting they were mateing
uh oh.... here comes more
I'm really scared right now someone help😢
I got you homie
Dont be scared
Bro: spiders: just big legs
*RS summers sad boy::::: : ::::: They're ONLY here to aid us in our environment a LOT MORE than to do us any harm RS. That doesn't mean we should ignore a potentially dangerous arachnid when we see it,but we should **_STILL_** make every of effort of capturing it in order for there to be a significant use put towards its capabilities at least from a scientific standpoint.*
Just stay away from imported Asian products.
Or, failing that, pay somebody to open every
thing you'd see after entering a new vehicle.
Finding a loose feather inside is when you
exit fast and slam the door shut. As bigger
spiders love to chase by running. Or, with
long leaps, if it has an ambush preference
Rest in peace then
The really fun spiders are the jumping spiders that'll stare into your soul, and jump at you when you're close enough.

I always see huntsman everyday,because it's my pet
Hey Katrina! I live in Australia, on acreage .... and we have huntsman the size of a dinner plate ... so yes, they’re huge! Ok ok maybe a smaller dinner plate 😂 feels like they’re big enough to saddle up 😂
Here’s a story for you.
Twenty three years ago, when my daughter was a newborn, there was a massive huntsman in her room. I freaked out and her godfather grabbed a sarong, trying to coax the spider onto it. The plan was to run outside with it. He tricked me saying “I’ve got it!” So I jumped out of the way, and he said nah just kidding. Next second he’s screaming “no I’m not kidding! Holy shit get outta the way!” The spider jumped off the sarong in the lounge room and I swear to god it was running straight at us. We stood in a circle around it (me, my partner and the aforementioned godfather) and this spider would run at whoever made a move. It was scary and hilarious at the same time. That spider did live. We finally swept it out side with a broom... needless to say it wasn’t quite eight legged anymore. Also I’ve had, quite recently, a four legged huntsman in my house... weird how they live on without legs 😂 (have a look at a song called “come to Australia” by the Scared Weird Little Guys.... it’s hilarious!
I literally have constant daydreams about giant spiders roaming around where I live. If there were tarantulas everywhere, I don't think I could be happier.
The largest Goliath birdeater I saw in Peru in the jungle was well over 12" in leg span.. unfortunately it was all so much higher on the tree than we could reach to get an accurate measurement. And that was 30 years ago..
Then how do you know it was over 12"

Big spiders make me nervous but I leave all spiders alone as long as they're not in a doorway or something. Then I gently move them somewhere out of the way. I like Male peacock jumping spiders. They're so cute when they dance!
These are one of the reason I'm so happy I live in Sweden but with it getting warmer here, we get bigger spiders so I'm thinking about moving to antarctica :P

*shivers not scared of spiders, but I am unsettled by the idea of a arachnid being that huge crawling on me 😅
i would be more scared of dropping it those abdomens are like water balloons
Another great one Katrina. My Dad was working at the docks when he immigrated to Toronto from Scotland. While handling bananas he encountered a giant spider which freaked him out for sometime. We lived in Scotland and we had never known spiders could get that big.
How did you manage to research that without freaking out? I sat on the sofa with my legs off the floor 😆. An interesting video though. Thank you, Katrina ❤️
Camel spiders living here in the Inland Empire lot smarter only by the inch
i never see a huntsman spider in my entire life
"have you ever seen a huntsman spider?"
honey, as an Australian myself, i've held them. they're absolutely everywhere...
And that's why I'm never going to Australia!
Ahaha remind me to never go to Australia
My wife told me to take the spider out instead of killing him. Went out. Had a few drinks. Nice guy. He’s a web designer.

2:27 cool hair bro!
It was very hard to watch this oh my 😂 I have enough spider nightmares already! I have seen a Colombian spider already and it was huge no thank you!
My dad was a sailor on a PBY aircraft crew in WW II. He was a forward gunner. One day while they were in South America, he was awakened by a scramble to man the planes. This one day he failed to shake out his boots and jammed his feet into them. He had jammed his foot onto a Brazilian wandering spider. After the flight he reported to sickbay as his foot was throbbing and he was feverish. There was no room in the make shift hospital so they had him outside with a tent covering his leg with a heat lamp inside (yes ... in the tropics). The doctors wanted to amputate his leg, but my father refused (he was 19 at the time). His leg swelled up like a watermelon, but he survived and so did his leg. He lived to be less than a month shy of his 76th birthday.
I had a huntmans spider under my bed, there are huge but rlly friendly, I could hold it and it was quite chill
Who here’s and seen the part when she talk about the banana part I’m not eating bananas no more
I would like to be friends with the deadliest spider . It's my dream.

What would u do if it got angry at u
@@jothehen5067 I would just try to shoo it away if it bites I have to move it with force.
What a bunch of pretty babies! I love them all!
I never felt so itchy
venomous or not,I hate spiders,they're creepy and scary as hell
No there’s no animal that needs to “bee” feared. Only the deadly one’s like jellyfish, those are the only organisms i ever feared in my life. They’re creepy, unpredictable and sting a lot, but they do give excuses out to piss on people because it’s said urine helps against the burning and itchy sensation
I nate them bcuz idk if they are poisonous or not

Jesus loves you.
It's Juda, this area got called philitisin or palestina by the Roman's to blame the jews (their biggest enemies were the philister) after they got kicked out in 78 ac. After the islamic colonization arabs came to Juda/philistin and took over. There is no "real" philistin, they are all settlers brought there by the islamic expansion. But iam sure you will find excuses and still blame the jews
