Real “giant” spiders (video)

Arachnophobia is a serious condition

Newsroom October 31 12:16

There are numerous phobias described in the annals of psychology. Phobias are defined as fears that stem from irrational causes. Arguably the most infamous of these, party due to Hollywood, is arachnophobia, the fear of spiders. At the mere thought of the hairy, 8-legged creepy crawlies, some people are gripped with stone cold fear. So imagine how they would feel when coming across some the giant spiders that are not Hollywood special effects but are actually real. A warning to all those people terrified of spiders before watching the video: Get out of the room, or better yet the house!
