Does anyone else have a fascination with spiders despite being terrified of them
Yep
Me! Weird isn’t it! But I’m finding the more I watch and learn about them, the less freaked out I get.
I actually bought a little jumping spider last year to help with my arachnophobia and it’s really helped. I no longer contemplate burning the house down just to get rid of a spider in the bath tub 😂
There was a spider crawling on me once. To test my fear I left it alone. A few hours later I found a large bump on my shoulder where the spider was.
@@CDPW spider particles? I’ve heard they can be super dangerous 😉😂
i am not terrified but fascinated , i had tarantulas and i loved watching them .
"he's coming through the backdoor"... Courageous little feller. I rarely dare doing that with human females. He does it on the first date already. Definitely my spirit animal.
😂😂😂
One time Dave was talking about noticing a small drip of venom on a New Zealand funnel web's fang when it was in a defensive posture, and he said *"she's drippin' and ready to go"* . That is pretty much the only time you wouldn't want to hear that combination of words. 😂
@@24KGoldbackGorilla 😂😂
Spiders , us humans see things in the urinal , and think he's got an Anaconda, spiders , they share a roach , and say , cop the pedapelps on horse over there , lucky p^!@k ........... gotta luv it , it's mad , in a madgic way. RARARA
As a former tarantula breeder I can tell you having all the prey out of the breeding tank is very helpful. This breeding went almost the same way as most tarantulas. Congrats on keeping the male alive. Thanks for posting this great video.
Geez even the Japanese spiders don’t know how to talk to girls! Lol
10:05 *Atchoo!"
The softest, whispered voice: "bless you..."
My dumbass at 1 am: "Sweet land of liberty that spider SPOKE!"
You just need a tiny Frodo and Sam figurines and it would be complete
Lz
Lol good one!!!
I think not..
Shelob's lair - just what I was thinking.
“ She longs for sweeter meats “
All I could think of when you said, "She's laying on her side against the web." was "Draw me like one of those French girls Jack."
😂😂😂😂
😆
I can't possibly imagine the thought it takes to make someone want to own one of these things and call it a pet.
"I don't like saying spiders are aggresive, but THESE guys are very much into protecting themselves." Translation: They're aggressive. Lol
@@yeahrightmate I was thinking the same thing
@@yeahrightmate that or territorial
@@yeahrightmate Ah, but nature often selects organisms that act as though "the best defense is a continuous and energetic target-seeking offense." There's an English word for such organisms: aggressive. Just because this word best describes them doesn't mean you don't have to like them anymore. Heck, you can even vacate "team human" and join "team Phoneutria" if you want to. ...But they are, indeed, aggressive, especially in relation to other spiders that "definitely aren't even slightly aggressive."
Somebody doesn’t know how to use quotations. Lol
@@yeahrightmate Defensive aggression. It's common place to use the term aggression in any form of it, But what we all know (or if not, should know) is that a spider's aggression is purely out of self preservation because they don't have emotion like anger towards someone for the sake of it lol
"He's coming through the back door"
**spits tea**
😂😂😂😂😂😂
love your year zero album NIN profile pic!! my favorite band!!
Naughty spider .
@@gazzertrn back door action.dont forget to lube up mate.
😂
Dave >> "I'm destroying your house."
Spider >> "What the hell for?"
Dave >> "You have a date!"
Tarantulas never really creep me out but these type of spiders just look demonic. Pretty cool creature though.
Dave - "shes actually laying on her side"
*meanwhile* *inside* *the* *enclosure*
female spider - "I want you to draw me jack, like one of your french girls"
mate that sequence of them just chilling around and being all calm and gentle did wonders to my arachnophobia. the best treatment is watching spiders just go about their stuff
Every time I see a pairing video it makes me thankful I'm human. My wife may get angry with me, but she's never threatened cannibalism.
...yet
😂😂😂😂
@@daveslittlebeasties yes 😂😂😂😂

Doesn't matter had sex
Never thought I'd be into spider porn.especially with the Eurosports commentary.
17:10 "He sways his abdomen - he shakes it side to side..."
I do the same thing to encourage mating, but so far I've been largely unsuccessful.
You've either got it or you dont 😂😂😂
@@daveslittlebeasties Aye sad but true. Lol hope you're well mate
You tried different color patterns?
maybe you shake correctly, but the colors aren't correct in the eyes of the female you try to sway your way.
Me? I play injured, works like a charm every time^^
@@savagegtalks5912 😂😂😂😂😂😂👍
😂
Dave I live in the Blue Mountains near Sydney. I once worked with a plumber who told me that he had to rip up floorboards to do some plumbing and when he shined his torch in the hole in the floor that he was about to drop into, he saw maybe 20 funnel web spiders all rearing up and going at each other.
I bet that was a sight 😂👍
I literally just spent 32 minutes watching a spider try to get lucky.
Also genuine question. Is it possible for spiders to imprint on people? I assume most of them can't, as they most likely work the same way as "reptile brain", where they eat anything they can't, that isn't part of their species, and also their own species if they aren't mating. But I was told that Jumping Spiders are VASTLY more intelligent than other types of spider?
@@TheMikesc15 There is a kinda jumping spider that can calculate distances and angles, not to sure about emotions, I've been told some are like cats in intelligence but idk if I believe it or not imo. None of my spiders gave me any special treatment. But a friend of mine had a goliath bird eater who would cuddle up in your hands and sleep.
@@TheMikesc15 I dont think they can imprint on people they are not wired like that 👍
Dave: Owns the worlds deadliest spider
Also dave: I’m gonna poke it with a stick
Spider brain has only 4 functions:
1: attack
2: escape
3: mate
4: idle
And it's all driven by instinct.
Feed?
I see that this video had been recommended to us all within an hour...
This is the best horror movie I've ever seen!! Story, fear, jump scares, ending!! It's all here!
Look out for the funnel webs, Dave! We don’t want another escape incident. 😂 We loved the latest video you posted. Hang in there friend, you are wonderful. 😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm amazed at how calm and collected he is around the female. I would expect more tapping too. Really cool. Great video!
it was great to witness and very different from what I was expecting 👍
Irvine
"Don't worry about my fingers".....yah well, I am. I am worried about your fingers.......
I'm sitting here listening to David Spidenborough. As someone commented before, he's totally got a calming voice.
❤️❤️❤️
I can hear him screaming, "Nooooooooo! She's gonna eat me!"🤣😂
“He’s coming in through the back door. Let’s see what this produces”.
My British mind can’t stop giggling 😂.
The dude pushing the male spider into the female spider's tank lowkey reminded me of when I was a kid and my dad would push me towards girls to talk to them.
😂😂😂😂
"These are extremely dangerous and fast spiders."
*touches webs with finger*
Me: *sweats nervously*
Im fully aware of where he is at all times 😂👍
spider flirting is insane
"He's coming through the backdoor." Giggity.
I think the last thing I want to hear in a room full of spiders - especially a funnel web spider - "he's actually disappeared, where's he gone?" 👁👄👁
I don't know Dave, you're the expert...
"Take me, sweet prince, I'm all yours, forever"
"Ehh I dunno"
Sometimes I can almost hear Steve Irwin's voice in the background exclaiming, _"Crikey!"_
😂😂😂😂
"Babe! Please have ex with me, I'm so hrny!"
"No, I'm scared"
5:56 “we can see him now”
Me still struggling to see: 👁👄👁
Anyone else feel something on their foot all of a sudden?
Imagine that a giant spider comes by and just pull the ceiling of your house off, take you out your bed and put you into a box. After that the spider says "Nah, I'm sure you can rearenge that house later". How would that feel? 😂😂😂 Just joking with ya. Amazing video, I love spiders.
I would definitely be startled 😂 also, that's funny to imagine 😂
"We'll put all his stuff back" ... his books, CDs etc.
Didn't think I'd ever binge watch spider videos but here we are
Its that time of the night again, browsin down the rabbithole of youtube. I started watching video showcasing most brutal knockouts in UFC history and in less than 1 hour ended up here
Thats awesome my friend 👍
I respect your love of the science. Being able to document something like this when nobody else has must be kind of cool.
This spider is similar to myself....a willing lady practically throws herself at me and I’m too stupid to even pick up the signs.
Then we wonder why we can't get a date lmao
you could be gay
By the sheer fact that she wants to cuddle and he's trying to "take off" I'd say all signs indicate they have indeed done the dirty.
LOL
Or He knows He will be going out with a "bang" so to speak and wants to live a bit longer before losing his virginity/life :0)
Oh my gosh, that female has the biggest spinerets I've ever seen! I though they were legs! Thank you for documenting this. Fascinating little beasts.
Ahh just need something peaceful to watch at 4am and ill be off too sleep
-RUclips: spiders
Female 🕷: 😍 come to mama
Male 🕷:
😳
👉👈
😂😂😂😂
😐📸
This geezer is like "where is he?"
At that point I've already burnt the house
You rarely see the male because they're busy watching anime/Vtubers. 🏃
😂😂
I've only seen a handful of spider/tarantula breeding videos, but I have never seen the female attempt to instigate like that. Certainly never seen one put herself in a vulnerable position like that. Very fascinating.
I was wondering if they were going to kill each other. But then I realized that they aren't even married yet.
Are we still making "haha marriage sucks" jokes in 2021? You chose to get married. Especially if you're a guy as you're likely the one who made the proposal. Married men also live longer than un-married men on average. The opposite is the case for women. So women should be complaining about marriage if anything.
@@DM-nw5lu If this kind of joke gets you triggered to a point you cant help yourself and brag about gender equality and what not, even if you are right, you probably die alone anyways. Do you really think that nagging at innocent people for making harmless jokes actually helps your cause? Only thing you achieve with this behavior is to create more people who use term like SJW or femnazi unironically.
@@thefearhawk8805 I'm annoyed and bored. Not triggered.
@@DM-nw5lu even worse...
@@thefearhawk8805 Sure? I just genuinely don't get why men depict marriage as torture when they're the ones that chose it. Explain that to me?
“I don’t think he did inseminate her. If he did then he would have took off after.” This video is comedic gold.
Did you miss the part where he came flying out of the burrow ?
Went to get the "spider milk" 😏
Oh h* nah
h* nah
nope. Boi, bet.. I didn't know my toes could fold in on themselves until now
I take that back. This video was wholesome
❤️❤️❤️❤️Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
While I'm glad he didn't get munched by her, those fangs are crazy big, and I want nothing to do with these guys... very brave and professionally done sir.
Thank you ❤️👍
I was watching this and about 3/4 of the way through my cats tail lightly brushed my bare upper arm....I nearly shot through the roof. XD
😂😂😂😂😂👍
You shouldn't carry firearms when watching this type of video.
Or did I misunderstand,
again?
@@oaflet he means he nearly jumped through the roof.
@@oaflet You can't be serious
I would have Too!..LOL
Next time, try a little Barry White to set the mood.
Japanese Spiders prefer Baby Metal. 🕷️
Absolutley amazing to me how calm Dave is handling these things. Even when they start scuttling about all crazy, Dave never changes pace of slow and steady. Absolutely great shots by Camera Lady, fantastic job.
Thank you ❤️👍
@ Clayton Alexander… It’s better to do it Slow and Right… than Fast and Wrong. Your Life will Depend on it.
No one, absolutely no one...
RUclips: Spider porn!
This made the hairs on the back of my mullet stand up.
This is real science/biology in action. Experiment with an unknown outcome, not edited for entertainment. This is the value of RUclips.
Thank you its all new ground 👍
The sound of the male scurrying in the container is ghastly.
😂😂😂😂
"As we can see, she is actually soliciting him"
SKANK
I found one of these in my yard while living in Japan, although the one I found was much smaller. A man saw me looking at it and said "It is bad luck to kill spiders in the morning in Japan".
...so, I camped out for a few hours until noon, and ...smack!
me: terrified of spiders
also me: *watches spider vids*
*Me, who has a lifelong fear of spiders and who would probably cry if I saw a tiny jumping spider on the bed next to me:* Ooh, interesting!
Oh no - not me... these things should be burned with fire.
Same. Remote viewing only, though
@@braddishv3146 😄👍
Me halfway thru the video, "Oh yea, I have to breathe".
that male is a anti simp
mans just tamed two funnel webs, then proceeded to hook them up. What a legend
one earth quake is all it takes from turning this into a horror movie
Or a radiation leak. Or both.
😂😂😂😂
20:26
"He's coming through the back door."
Seems like you have a pair of kinky spiders.
*Giggidy*
Greetings from the USA. Fascinating and potentially historic if, in fact, you’re the first UK breeder to attempt this. Will look forward to the next video of their pairing. By the way, love the way you handle your beasties and I would not characterize any spiders as “aggressive”. Some are more defensive than others is all.
Me "Ok RUclips, let's watch my favourite video game channel"
RUclips algorithm "No, you should watch never-before seen footage of spiders banging"
Me "Oh ok, thank you RUclips."
Jokes aside this is very fascinating. You could probably get an honourary PhD from this lol.
Im so glad your enjoying the content it makes me very happy all I ever wanted was to share the lives of these amazing creatures and show them in a different light , thank you for watching my friend ❤️👍
I have a bad fear of spiders, but I find their webbing incredibly interesting. I mean they literally build a house using material their own body created. Imagine if you could use your saliva as a substance that could dry and harden into a brick or something. Amazing.
5:05 Famous last words.
4:49 "Now what we're aiming for here is just a little bit of personal safety." Then at 5:02 he sticks his finger down into the web right by the entrance... "Don't worry about my finger." I'M GONNA FREAKIN' WORRY. THAT IS TERRIFYING. I have a fascination with arachnids and they don't generally bother me all that much, but there are some species that I'm just a complete nope on. Funnel web spiders are one. Fast, and extremely aggressive.
I hate Spiders but I was fascinated from start to finish. Such misunderstood creatures
“This male is not fully committed to this breeding program.” That was hilarious lol
Loved the very subtle "Bless you" from the lady.
I'm not sure what I've been watching that would cause the algorithm to suggest videos of giant spider sex, but I did watch to the end.
Welcome christie ❤️👍
Explaining this experience from the male spider's perspective; Male Spider saying to himself: "I was at home chilling in my man cave when all of a sudden the doors were caved in. Then, some creature with giant claws ripped the top off of my cave, snatched me out of it and then dropped me off into the home of some horny woman I've never seen in my life! Because I was still in chill mode and mentally recovering from being kidnapped, I was in no way prepared mentally for sexual intimacy with a hot sexually prime lady whose end goal is to eat me. So, I stopped listening to her enticements and turned her down. She will never have a chance witih me. I know the game already!."
I love your show, Dave. So many people on RUclips make these creatures fight to the death for views, and I hate it. Thank you for respecting these amazing creatures instead, and educating us about them. Much love
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Next Halloween, instead of "The Exorcist", I'.ll just watch this again.
Awesome video! He's a brave male, I haven't ever seen a male stand up to a female like that in the spider world. Great stuff, well documented👍
Thanks for watching!
Hes taking charge in his life and she likes it ;)
"There he is" *random roach passes by*
The algorithm currently has an obsession with arachnids and has found you worthy.
I survived the venom of a funnel web with no tourniquet. I survived a full 3 days and then antivenom came. It was horrible. I lost my flight or fight response and did not call an ambulance. I was vomiting buckets of phlegm and my heart was really pushing it and I was sweating and had fever. Just amazing I survived
That sounds very rough what an experience ❤
That's horrifying...
Your commentary is so fascinating. Like a sports commentator lol 😆
Wow, thanks
lol wow I have never seen a female spider so aggressively dtf
Bro why i am watching this at 1am
My reasoning behind watching videos like these: I’m trying to get rid of my arachnophobia… it’s not working.
Im disappointed 😭😭😭
@@daveslittlebeasties
Oh, it’s nothing to do with you - you’re like a professor of spiders … I just find spiders incredibly creepy, albeit, oddly enough; I’m not as intimidated by the big ones … I’m more afraid of the poisonous ones you can’t see or feel skittering down your leg at night 😅.
" just want a little bit of safety" *proceeds to cram his finger in the Spiders burrow. *
😂😂😂 im very aware of where the spider is 😂😂👍
@@daveslittlebeasties i hope so XD
@@Zesmas 😂😂👍
the sound the legs make inside the plastic container give me shivers.
Omg yes 😱
I know right!!! It made my eye twitch 🤢🤢
@Romeo @victoriareffin Why do you ask?
@@victoriareffin2429 you got gottemed
@@odk1105 I have no idea what that means 😂
Almost 30 and i still lift my feet off the floor when watching spider videos
Imagine getting abducted by aliens just to be placed in the bedroom with someone and make out, then get taken back home
LOL
Very strange idea?
Its also very cool to see the male basically telling the female he wants to do it outside the hole because he feels uncomfortable without a way of escape, or atleast thats what i think is happening lol
imagine that with humans
I used to be terrified of spiders, but after learning more about them, I just see them as very creepy friends. They eat everything I hate (like cockroaches and mosquitoes), and they respect our personal space (unlike the two that I just mentioned). They don't crawl into my mouth while I sleep like cockroaches do, and they only attack when threatened. Nowadays I don't even flinch when I see a spider. I feel surprised and then relieved that it's not a filthy cockroach. I love these little guys now.
Wait hold on... how many cockroaches have crawled into your mouth?
i realy watched a 30 minute spider porn....
When you've been into porn for so long that nothing else turns you on anymore.
algorithms got us all today
