*Shiver*

It's safe to say I'm not a fan of spiders. At All. Yes they are bug control, but I wish they weren't so creepy about it. I think it's the legs...they're too long and propel way too fast. I'm getting creeped out just thinking about it. 

Even though I think spiders are terrifying (mostly when they're in my house with me), they are completely fascinating. They are intricately put together and knowing they're silk is stronger than steel is mind blowing. Interestingly tarantulas don't scare me (maybe because they have hair) as much, even though they are the biggest ones. When they move fast though, I guarantee I will shriek and run. So I feel the need to post this video I found on National Geographic about the Goliath tarantula, the largest spider in the world. 

A spider the size of a dinner plate...no thank you. That's bigger than my face and that's terrifying enough to imagine. *Shiver again* 

Well enjoy (:
