This is an Indian Ornamental Tree Spider (Poecilotheria Regalis). It is an aboreal spider in that it's natural habitat is dwelling in the trees.
The spider is very fast and not one to handle. It hates light and generally very timid when approaching.
The Indian Ornamental Tree Spider feet are equipped with tiny hooks (not shown on the video) and it's feet are very very sticky. This is even the case on a molted skin.
FUCK THAT!!

@Sofokleousma Kinda depends, I've heard of pet shops selling deathstalker(and other "hot" scorpions) all over before. I'd reccomend against any pet stores, I'd go for the classifieds section of Arachnoboards(.com) or Net-Bug or SwiftInverts(.com). Good luck!

aggressiveness? Don't think so, they'd rather run than stand and fight. Still depends on the individual T though, you should've gotten her man. They're a must have in any collection ;]

Very nice, I was offered one of these at the weekend for £38. The combination of speed, aggressiveness, climbing and a more painful bite than normal persuaded me to leave it in the shop :) Lovely spider though, really pretty, moves nice too.
