"If you're scared of spiders, don't watch this"

Me: *Scared of spiders* *Clicks video*

[tomagargoya]

Imagine being alive for less than 3 seconds and then some otherworldly creature just starts hitting you with a giant broom

[TigerOoE]

This guy took “Tell me you’re Australian without telling me you’re Australion “ to a whole other level

[mayeisadaye]

This is where a cup and a piece of cardboard comes in handy

[insanity]

Me: Sees the title. Is scared of spiders, taps it anyways

[H.K.]

As soon as I heard his Australian accent, I wasn't even surprised.

"honey, what's for dessert?"
Him: "byebees"

‘’LOL! The smack of the broom followed by his immediate ‘’Ah, little babies come’n out of it’’ and the moan in the background as the spiderlings spread everywhere is just hilarious every time.

Legend says he’s still sweeping till this day

Guy: *Hits Spider*
Spider: Shadow Clone Jutsu

Although we don't get too many wolf spiders where I live, they're still not something you want to have around because they can bite and if you're diabetic or immunocompromised, those have the potential to turn necrotic.

This guy is so unfazed, he’s just like: oh, baby spiders? :/

[Kingdomslayer-iveh]

Spider: Has babies come out of it.
My anxiety level: 📈

[Pink_Woz]

People feel bad for the babies but I’m feeling bad for the mother. She knows exactly what’s gonna happen if she isn’t fast enough, and unfortunately for her, she wasn’t. The way she still tried to escape after being hit broke my heart. I REALLY don’t like spiders but I’m learning to accept their existence and if I wanna get rid of one, trap it in a glass or something and take it outside instead of killing it.

Poor spider. I’m scared of them but never wish them harm. That’s brutal 😢

[gasshu-gyxy]

The title should be: "If you love spiders, don't watch this"

poor mother spider, this is actually sad :(

[allsparkwarrier]

Normally I hate spiders but seeing this is both creepy and sad at the same time, . I mean those babies lost their mom and were killed 3 seconds after coming into this world

[KayJungkaiyuan]

I was so ready for the scene of her climbing up the broomstick
