Huntsman Spider | Molting

- Опубликовано: 13 окт 2022
- Here's a video of a Huntsman spider molting. I went to the bathroom to fill a bucket when I saw it dangling on a single strand of web. I've never seen them do this so I set my phone up on timelapse to check what it would be doing in this position. Turns out this is how they molt. Amazing!
Thank you for watching!

Had these in my house in Japan. Would startle the crap out of me because of how fast they are. There was an 80% chance they’d run away from you at lightning speed and a 20% chance they instead jump in your direction. And they can somehow manage to vertically climb walls, also at lightning speed.
Everything you said is true hahaha I have experienced one jumping at me during a shower, I panicked and almost slipped.
WAIT YOU LIVED IN JAPAN!?! BRO I'M JEALOUS 😭😭
One run up the side of my bed towards me, and if I did not pounce out of bed it would have been on my face.
@@Lucifersfreeduck Japan ain't all that great, honestly.
@@thinker787 really?
So nobody's gonna talk about how huge that spuder is
its an huntsman... they are big by nature
@@YetiSniffer true, this one is a sub adult even. once they mature they'd be big enough to pounce on mice for dinner
@@YetiSniffer I know but I've never seen one that big
When it's legs just kept coming they doubled in size lol
Whats a spuder ???
I imagine it feels like taking your socks off after a long day but all over
hahaha it probably feels better than just removing your socks too! It'll probably be like removing shoulder aches and lower back pains as well
@@arachnotherapy7322 "ooooooh my knees hurt. Brb gunna shed my bones and grow new ones!"
Damn, that must be pretty good!
Imagine finding that thing in your socks
Not me thinking that was a god damn octopus in the thumbnail
@@samibichumani1176 the trick is to burn your socks.
Molting is really hard on spiders, its very stressful and exhausting but im glad he turned out ok! Didnt know huntsman spiders molted thats super cool
I would love to see someone's reaction if they watched a human being do this and step out of their flesh.. would you all be saying How Majestic and beautiful it is then too? 🤔
@@amber619pop yes but to do that we would need hard shell as exoskeletons
@@amber619popwhat point are you trying to make..? Lmao
Every spider molts 🙄
@@amber619pop yes :)
Wow! Something we don't normally see and here you are sharing it! Amazing!!!
hey there, thanks for dropping by! Don't worry, I'm sure there's more to come. haha
Wow !!
Npc moment
It takes a lot of unconditional love and compassion for a creature to not find this disturbing and chilling. But I get it.
Right! And, I get it too. However... it would not have had a chance to complete it's molting if that was in my house. Yes, I'm that girl. Nope 👎🏽
@@muganeeh9776 Same!! I would have the biggest bottle of spray I could find and kill it from a distance. Then have someone else throw it out. That's what I did with a huge wolf spider I saw in our house. I made our neighbor come and throw it outside after spraying it so much I knew it was dead and putting a glass over it just in case. No one else was home at our house at the time. So he just laughed at me and threw it out.
@@jennifer7648 that's terrible, I found a wolf spider in my basement before but fortunately it was already dead. The size of it still scared me though. It made me wonder if there were others around still living that I couldn't see.
@@amber619pop Yeah, everyone, including my teen son who was home sick from school that day laughed at me. My cousin laughed and said they always have really big ones in their house. She said she just smashes it with her shoe or a broom and moves on. Yikes 😬 That's a huge nope for me!!
it breaks my heart knowing they kill them instantly when they see it
man they're just tryna settle somewhere and eat every pesky ass pest in your house and nope you just had to put it away
if it's an infestation (if that's even possible with spiders) then sure it wouldn't phase me a little but a single big spider minding it's own business? :((
Spiders are our friends, they are the reason the world is not completely over-run by mosquitos and other pests, and they don't want to hurt us. It's too bad they scare so many people.
Im afraid of them because they give me the creeps I’m sure that’s why a lot of people have arachnophobia
@@YautjaSpacePirate ah yes womenphobia
Spiders are creatures from hell🗿
@irfan nemat spiders are creatures from hell
There are also some very toxic spiders
This position makes a lot of sense, actually- gravity is on their side while they're pulling themself out of their molt. Never seen this kind of thing before, that's awesome!
Even though I have arachnophobia, I still appreciate the cool molting process
Edit: I said I appreciated it . I didn't say I enjoyed looking at that. I like nature, but I fucking hate spiders. They scare the fuck outta me
No you don’t
me too.
Having arachnophobia but being incredibly curious.. I pressed the video.. and actually started tearing up and crying while watching it at the thought of me ever finding myself in the same room as one of these… I’ve also never met a arachnophobic who looked at a spider of that mass molting and was like “that’s cool”…
@@nottheone7688 don’t worry I have terrifying nightmares of them at least once a month to this day, and shivers still go down my spine when I see any kind of spider, whether it be a long legged tan spider with tiny beady eyes (the ones I can’t stand) or a tarantula (I can actually kind of stand it)
@@Smacadoodles i remember the day my family suspected I had arachnophobia. I was at a flag football game for my brothers and I had to use the bathroom. I went into the bathroom and I had already locked the door behind me when I realized the mass amount of huge.. I mean huge daddy long legs.. I started balling my eye’s out cause I felt trapped in there with them, went back to my parents in tears so they ask me what’s wrong, I tell them and they go take a look and have the audacity to say “they are just daddy long legs”.. best believe I did not use the bathroom in there.. Idc how apparently harmless they are
Me the entire time I'm watching this video, trying to appreciate all forms of life: 😐
lol some people are fascinated this. My knee-jerk reaction is just to 🏃♀️💨
@@amber619pop I mean, it can be both fascinating and terrifying lol
Yeah cause me personally don't know what I would've done he probably wouldn't have made it 😳
@@amber619pop Uggggh when it went from being limp to orientated I just about died 💀💀💀
@@kiki6745 lol same, not in my house! You do that crap somewhere I can't see! 😤
I hate having arachnophobia. They are such interesting creatures and I just have to be hardwired to panic in their presence.
I know what you mean. My arachnophobia reaction has reduced in intensity in recent years so I no longer panic, but I still get pretty intense fight or flight and that makes capture and release pretty stressful and difficult, but I usually manage in the end.
My arachnophobia went from "RUN" to "DIE"
Idk how to feel about that
Same :( they scare me sooooooo bad but they’re so good and I feel bad
A good friend of mine who is definitely not me got over their arachnophobia with the use of hallucinogens. Just leaving that info there in case anyone thinks it’s interesting.
@@haileybalmer9722
Oh no you don't! It would be mean, cruel even not to elaborate on that.
The bathroom is really a good choice, because of the humidity
true! it was right next to the toilet too
@@arachnotherapy7322 If I needed the toilet and I saw that huntsman, I would hold it for all eternity 😂😂
@@1Meshy “…I’ll uh, I’ll wait until you’re done-“
@@1Meshy
Freshly malted spiders are *squishy* and can't really hurt anyone or anything for a while.
@@WhatIsSanity Doesn't make them any less creepy lol
Hell yeah, the vibes in this comment section are immaculate 😤 also this was SO COOL to see!! I had no idea huntsman molted this way!
Glad you like it! I got really lucky I caught it in time to document it
Looks like me trying to get out of my skinny jeans! 🤣
🤦♂️🙄
everyone being so fascinated about the spider while my paranoid a*s is glancing around the room looking if there are huntsmen.
What a gorgeous boy! I bet he feels so much better now that he's molted!
Gorgeous girl*
The gender of a Huntsman Spider can be inferred from the shape of their pedipalps and abdomens. Males have little bulbs on the ends of their pedipalps that look like little boxing gloves, and they have small abdomens (usually smaller than the cephalothorax). This one lacks the palpal bulbs, and has a relatively large abdomen, so this is likely a girl.
@@xxfalconarasxx5659 oh thank you! I didn't know that Acctually! I love spiders, even though they absolutely scare me. That Huntsman is absolutely gorgeous though, and while I wouldn't even think about holding her, I would love to see her in person!
You seem to know quite a bit about huntsman spiders though, is there anything else I should know about them? And how would I tell them apart from say a brown recluse or wolf spider?
@@Zephyr_The_Robot Well a Huntsman Spider is usually larger than a Wolf Spider. Wolf Spiders also don't seem to like climbing walls. They usually prefer to be on the floors. I think they do this because they can move faster on the ground, and Wolf Spiders are extremely fast, so take care not to startle them. Recluse Spiders have a lot less setae (the hairs that cover a spider's body), and have a distinct head shape reminiscent of the bottom half of a violin. Recluse Spiders also spin webs to make permanent nests, while the other two species do not, and only really use webs to help them get around. Wolf and Huntsman spiders do not have permanent nests, and will usually move from one place to another. If they have eggs, they will roll them up in a big web ball and carry them around with them. Among Wolf Spiders, hatched baby spiders will hitch a ride on their mother's backs for a while. Not sure if Huntsman Spiders do the same though, but I know they both do carry around the unhatched eggs at least.
@@xxfalconarasxx5659 they Carry their eggs with them?! That's so adorable!!! You seem to know alot about spiders! Do you own any?!
Its such a coincidence that I find this now cause I just witnessed a spider molting a few seconds ago. fascinating!
awesome! what kind of spider did you witness molting?
@@arachnotherapy7322 A huntsman I believe
@@myushankaiswarm cool! you can expect a decline in the cockroach population in your house! hahaha
Did you say 'spider molting' out loud around your phone?? It recommended this because your phone is listening to you through your microphone you need to try and turn all of those permissions off, but even then it probably wont help, just gets rid of targeted ads, not the actual spying, they do that with or without permission.
Fascinating viewing, great to watch and really eerie at the same time. I’m scared of spiders but that footage had me transfixed. Great job 👏
Absolutely love this video, I have 15 tarantulas and they are incredible creatures ^^ Thank you for sharing this, you have a new sub from me now ^^
I'm glad you like it Jessie, I appreciate the sub!
Oh my so many pets
mosquitoes and flies the moment they get in your house:
*Me seeing it on my bathroom wall*
Me:nope nope nope nope
*burns the house to the ground
I appreciate spiders cause of how amazing they are and how much they help the ecosystem and I’m not an arachnophobic but this makes me understand why some people are
Literally ones I see even just one spider that's gigantic I immediately spray it with water I'm not lying that's kinda terrifying 💀
"Huh? I did it? I'm alive? YES!"
I have arachnophobia but own 40 species of tarantula ( I know has me baffled too 🤷♂️) apparently it’s the way true spiders move that makes you scared of them because they are so fast. Great video nice to see how it molts 🥰
And their looks not just how fast they are I still wouldnt want one near me
That was way more interesting than I expected. Thanks for sharing
this is one of the rarest moments.
you were so lucky to catch it on camera
thanks for sharing💙
Beautiful! But goodness, it looks exhausted when it first comes out!
I didn't know they did that! Fear of spiders increased
Imagine you get bigger, but because your skin doesn’t grow with you, you’d need to put all your energy into getting rid of this old skin of yours.
Spiders are very vulnerable during a molt. The process is exhausting for them, they can even get stuck and die horribly.
When shedding their skin successfully, they need to recover - their new skin including their fangs are still soft, so they have to harden up.
Tarantulas who are able to kick hairs, usually kick hairs right before they molt to keep away any predators. It’s interesting and super cool.
Very relaxing to watch. Thankyou
the other day my mom and i watched a nursery web spider molt just like this, and i was immediately reminded of this video! we watched it for like half an hour. once it was completely done and discarded its molt, i got it to crawl on my hand! it was such a beautiful spider... my mom and i both love them so it was awesome to get to witness this in person
Bless you for making this channel, so glad I found you♡
This is the reason why Australia had a wildfire
Did someone try to torch a huntsman? haha
@@arachnotherapy7322 I hope someone never does, otherwise he is already dead.
Honey I put the house up for sale today and made reservations at the Hilton.
I love watching spiders molting. It’s like a beautiful vulnerable haunting dance.
Lmao it’s like it’s doing a little dancey dance when it comes out! So cute!
I'm so scared of spiders like this one xd seeing a moment when he let free his legs from molt... Sweet jeez I won't be able to sleep this night.
That is so cool. Well done on the video! I’m subscribing
Thanks Ailie, hope you enjoy the other videos too!
If there was a spider like that, I'd call the army
I can’t get over how long the legs are ….love how it moves after, like it’s dancing to your toon 😁
That looked freaky... But I love it
So cool! I didn’t know they molted like that!
I thought I would never find a huntsman spider beautiful in any way. But this video proved me wrong in a manner that I can't explain ...
Awesome arachnid... I'm exhausted just watching this, bless its lil' heart!!!👏🏽👀🙃
(In my defense, I am considerably older than it is. Now I'm gonna be up all night wondering how old I might be in Spider-years...
(I don't think my psychotropic meds are working any more.)
Impressive! Huntsman are very cool!
This thing could be in the NBA look at the LENGTH on this guy.
Alright it’s done molting, get the shoe!
IF this was in my shower, I would be doing everything to protect this spider while it was weak..
Bro if that was in my shower, I would literally scream like a girl and throw something hard at the Spider until it dies.
@@CrimsonRoblox sameeee lmfao
@@CrimsonRoblox Why ffs 😡
@2RAW Why kill such a beautiful animal, seriously you people need to learn to love spiders like I did. Saying that even though I was arachnophobic I wouldn't go out of my way to kill them.
@@bentennyson2398 yeah love them and those are scary..
That was awesome! 😃
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Aww it’s so cute ❤
truly incredible. thank you for catching such a breathtaking critter in action !!! Huntsman’s are one of my favorite arachnids but far. they’re so beautifully terrifying. i have three tarantulas so i’m not bothered by spiders much, but i know how crazy fast Huntsman’s can be, especially with their size it sure seems intimidating. but i’m so fascinated by them it’s hard to be terrified lmao. AMAZING video!!! it’s nice knowing that he was able to get through his molt in peace. good on you for leaving him be, but also being able to catch this wonderful video💛🕷
probably one of the coolest things I've seen on YT...
This is so beautiful! I want more videos like this :D
It baffles me that something can simultaneously be so foul and yet so mesmerising
So cool! Iv'e only see T's molting..Thank you!❣🕷❣
Spider: *gets out of jeans*
Spider 2 seconds later: _D A N C E_
Strange but admittedly cool. It's also kind of freaky that it decided to molt in the bathroom 😂
He came out bigger than he was before. Frikken amazing
Exactly, that's its point, to be able to grow♡
Good Catch. See their Skins and Hides quite often in Cellars or Hides. And of course their fluffy sometimes enormous Borrow Webs. Some of mine, at Work, I can Feed grown! Catapillars.😆
Same experience before I got this clip, just exoskeletons everywhere lol. I hope you haven't experienced one jumping at you! haha
Don't think so. Zebra Jumpers and maybe a Runner. Only the Zebra really spooked me shortly.😆
I have a weird as strong Aversion against the Touch of Webbing, makes me freeze instantly. No Way to get rid of that.
You learn how to move trough Rows and Shrubs pretty quick with our Garden Spider Orbs. Sometimes with Pearl inside...🤣
There is always a Stick around. Or just plugging Strings from one Side when you see them. It's the nicer Way.😄
@@rosemiller417 I know that feeling because it ahs the same effect on me! The stairs from our garden to our main door takes 15 steps and orb weavers always spin these annoying random strands of web that cross my path every morning. they usually snag on my face, sometimes on my eyes and I start flailing my arms around thinking they might lunge at me hahaha.
Hey thanks for the idea, I'll try your technique of using a stick to navigate my way across our stairway lol
Lol. Yes or just anything.
For the Cellar I just take the small swipe broom. Our House Spiders weave the Corners shut on Headhight..
I luckily just freeze. Too to not get the Pearl on me when possible. Usually they fall, often they do not...
Flailing could hurl it to you beside injuring the Spider and yourself.
Part 1 prevents me from doing it most...
ooww she's so adorable! look how she moves those little legs aw
Absolutely killer video! Love, love, love it. Nice shower tiles by the way.
the part when the spider got out of the molt while its legs are extended
idk why but that looks terrefying
Imagine seeing that in your bedroom before you go to sleep. You wake up in the morning and you find it on your face 😳
I'd want to pull a grenade if that happened to me
Facehugger from Alien
@@trunkschillman yeah lol
So cool!
That’s very cool, but also a whole lotta nope!
The more they molt bigger they get, awesome molt, with no problems 🕷️ no feeding at this time, a month must go by.
There fangs are very frail.
Forget about the can of raid you need a pistol for that thing.😵
Really cool!
This was excellent to watch before bed
Bless it! No amount of relaxing background music will offset how nerve racking and completely unnecessary it is to have that spider casually undressing itself in your home! Just no 😂
Bro Imagine being an invertebrate and haveing to molt every time you have a growth spurt. Can not. Anyway, really cool video. Its awsome to watch all these things happen.
imagine what bullies would do to you while you molt, ending up dead is a real possibility! hahaha I wouldn't want to go through it as a human lol
People with arachnophobia: So cool
Spider: Literally named huntsman
Spider: is a female spider but not called huntswoman
That was Fantastic! I was so relaxed and peaceful with the spider, so therapised.. Wonderful!
Possibly one of the coolest videos on the web... 🤣🤣
one of the coolest things to witness in person too!
You should definitely have more subscribers
hey Chanda, I appreciate it! and thanks for dropping by!
@@arachnotherapy7322 thank you for sharing such an awesome video. Huntsman spiders are totally awesome and such misunderstood lil creatures
@@chandaphillips1337 I totally agree with you. I let them wander around the house freely. they rid me of roaches and other pests I'm probably not aware of.
@@arachnotherapy7322 lol I do the saaame thing 😂😂. My husband gets upset with me sometimes but grass spiders and wolf spiders ain’t gonna hurt us. They also kill off brown recluse spiders. Those do kinda hurt me but not too too bad I guess
Beautiful!!!!! The spider looks like Spiderman hanging out on some NYC building waiting to stop crime somewhere! I love the name of this channel, so, I subscribed!!! God Bless
That is that wosrvmist Alien assed thing I've seen in my life - and I can't stop watching it.
It's quite fascinating to watch such a creature molt...such a sweet creature too!
No one’s going to talk about how something so big got In their bathroom and evidently set up shop without them noticing?
Huntsmen are mobile spiders, they don't "set up shop" the way that web-builders do.
Spiders: Help humans in countless ways and are relatively cute
99.9% of humans: "Its squishing time."
''ill dance dance dance with my hands hands hands''
-molting spider
alien!
it is! I didn't expect its legs to dangle like hair in a shampoo commercial haha
Incrível ... impressionante ... muito bom
That was awesome!
Beautiful!!!
Arachnophobia activated ✅🥲
🕷️🕸️
Who ever is afraid of spiders? Thats arachnologically impossible!
@@donyosxd dude is in the comments defending spiders with his life 💀💀
If that was in my house I would either burn it will charcoal fire or give my house to the spider and burn down the house
Amazing. Wonderful. So great it was your bathroom and not mine.
It’s not a huntsman spider it’s name is dadgetthegun
Me shidding:😫
Lol Australians randomly be filming giant spiders molting in their bathrooms 😂
and your point is?
and your point is?
when the spider molts: scary!
when spiderman molts: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
First of all I see something like that I would never take a shower again. Second the only good spider is a dead spider I ended up in hospital emergency room from a spider bite🤔😠👟🕷👍
Im normaly fine with spiders but huntsmans can go to the deepest part of hell, KILL IT YOU COULD'VE KILLED IT WHILE IT WAS FRAGILE
When I visited the Phillipines from U.S a few years back I found this hunstman near my toilet and I was like nope.
That's was awesome, good job
Pray forgive me while I seek succor for my soul in religion. I will need it after seeing this
No worries. everyone has their fears, or simply find different things creepy. Thanks for dropping by, though!
@@arachnotherapy7322 it is pretty awesome, tho. Don't get me wrong :3
@@JABO95SA it iiiiiis I was so happy to witness it. funny how happy I was watching it alone in the bathroom at 2am lol
burn the whole bathroom if i see that shit in my house
That gave me goosebumps ive never felt before
Beautiful
Not a fan of spiders, but somehow I felt like it was in a lot of pain, and made me a little worried about it.
I read somewhere that they don't feel pain the way we do, but yeah maybe the molting process does come with a certain level of pain for them?
