I have held category 1, 2, and 3. Category 5 is the one not to mess with. Category 5 would include the Northern Tree Dwelling Funnel Web, the Sydney Funnel Web, and the Brazilian Wandering Spider.
Fascinating creatures. I won't kill them but anything bigger than my little finger's nail and it's out with the fly swat. NOT to swat but to shiggle underneath and then lob out of the window.
I don't understand my 'fear' either but i happily handle moths and other six legged articles - and Daddy-longleg Spiders and Huntsmans.
This is why I love the Joop. Great storytelling, funny as hell and my god can I relate to this. His description of the category 3 and his father in law gave me goosebumps!
im so lucky my mum isnt afraid of spiders. it's always me, locked in my bedroom going "it's in the toilet mum, on the thing on the back?? ... how do you not see it.. it THERE dont tell me it left!!!.. it MASSIVE!!"
This is so pathetic, there was a Category Three Spider on my stairs once, and everyone in my house was scared of spiders. We were too scared of going anwhere near it that we didn't go to bed till about 5 in the morning.
Yes, yes master of spidery army, stay /away/ from Britain, with your little eight leged Nazis. >.> even if I have fled to a small island 30 miles from Britain.
I refuse to go into the garage now, Harris decided to go ahead and leave aragog there, who is still sitting on the wall, not decomposing.
I realise this is rather pathetic for someone who's built like a rugby number 8, but spiders are just little evil things planning on taking over the world. >.>
I'm not arachnophobic and the idea of using a Category 3 spider for power...I must collect them and breed an army. Better stay away from England, though, don't want Phill to shit a kidney and his spinal column.
I feel squicky even at his discription of his father in law holding the spider.. my spiddy sence is now tingleing horribly.. I'll not sleep till I've checked my whole room
Absolutely gold, loved this performance of the spider telling. Saw it on t.v and tell everyone about it, the man is a genius :-) Also thank you to the person who put this up.
I saw a catagory 2 a while back, it had cam cream on it's face, it was keeping radio contact with spiders who were telling it where i was by watching from the corners of rooms, and i walked in front of the tv, then for some reason looked up, it was sitting UPSIDE DOWN on the CEILING! and after about 3 seconds of us looking at each other, it just dropped, no parachute, just straight down the back of my top, i ran out screaming, and i refused to go back till it was found, when it was, i got the tv
i saw category 3 yeastarday, the bastard was reading the davinci code, and went 2 me " u know m8 i think this is bullshit" i was gone in less than a second =D
im not scared of spiders but i dont think anyone would be able to be perfectly fine with finding a big spider without you expecting it... any one would jump lol

I am not an arachnophobe so could pick up a spider regardless of whether it's a category 1, 2 or 3 and carry into the garden to release it.

Phil is a breath of fresh air from all of the mediocre comics that are all over the mainstream.
He actually KNOWS HOW TO TELL A JOKE WELL.
His storytelling is perfect and reactions are priceless.
My favorite comic (tied with Bill Hicks)

I like spiders so I would have no problems picking up a category 1 or 2 spider, carrying it to the back garden and letting it go.
I am not sure I could do that for a category 3 though. Depends on how big it was.
