Don't know if I could have kept my cool.

One of the most inoffensive arachnids imaginable.

Been there, done that. Dropped and ran up the shorts leg. Was same sized huntsman but wasn't on landing through. He didn't survive the flat hand stopping him going higher up my thighl. I did feel sorry for him - I'm happy to have them in the house catching other things for dinner. Even my little girl had one in her room ceiling for a while and was angry when it went to her brother's room and he took it outside.

The territory has a problem with the wildlife, lad taking off in a Baron had a snake slither out once airborne.
