First off I feel for anyone who has to encounter something that can bite them and cause problems. That said it reminded me of a coworker who grew up in Texas...you know big bad Texas. He was a hunter, he fished, he shot stuff and was a tough guy....uh...except when it came to spiders......
We dropped the biggest FAKEST ruber spider on his desk and he went butt hole over elbow....across his desk, knocked the chair over, kicked the metal garbage can across the floor, and then out the half glass door.....shattering it. I have never seen anything like it before.
Now I have had a black widow near my hand about 6 inches away...but it was in full view. Up the back and on the neck....Sag my heart would have come out of my butt with about 10 pouinds of human fertilizer.
I have walked in to a spider web that hit my face and calmly removed it....I am ok if I see it. However I have seen some aerobic activity from people who have walked in to them and could not get away fast enough.....
Glad everything is ok
