  • @godsfool713 You can still get a gun, you just need a licence.

  • Where is the RAID!!! or wait a minute ...the fricken GUN!! oh wait a minute ...your Guns Are Banned!!

  • well looks like we need to sink australlia to cleanse it of these spiders

  • @Derothil lol it is kinda fucked, but really the only ones to mainly look out for are the male funnel-web spider which is only about 1-1.5cm in length and the white-tailed spider. Though even though others have killed people, usually they are the elderly or children. Just about the rest of them are just annoying or frightening. But yes, nature sure is scary.

  • @TheRuppy81 whenever i see this happen in my street (they have an annoying habit of stringing webs from the street lights and nearby fences) we just assume it's a spider web. or they're drunk.or both.

  • Walking into a Golden Orb Weaver's web = two minutes of jumping around/stripping off clothes/trying to figure out where the damn spider is. Great fun!

  • @george16257 Nah they're a golden orb. They will eat those huge moths which are as big as a bird so the spider doesn't know the difference. Bardie moths or something, not sure how you spell it.

  • i'v walked through these webs at nighttime because u cant see em. i did the bolt and at the same time completely stripped off into middle of the street. who cares about didnity when u think u have one of these on you, wouldve made a great vid for youtube

  • Just put it down.
