This is my hand, and it's not that far from the spider. There may be a little perspective coming into play here, but not a lot. When I got my hand close, she moved.

Good monkey roll. Certainly not a great monkey roll.

I’d move too if I saw the five finger death claw coming at me!

Props though for wearing the helmet! Otherwise....he'd just be another grease spot in the road!

Just a Banana spider. When we were kids running though the woods, someone would always end up running into a web and end up with 9ne on their faces. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1626833897.jpg

Yep, pretty in a creepy spider kind of way, but still very big. The web for this one was relatively small, but I've seen them with huge webs. I'd freak right the frack out if I had one on my face/head.

I have my grandmothers silver spoon that she stirred gravy with in a cast iron skilled. A few thousands gallons of gravy over a lifetime. A sterling silver spoon against a well seasoned cast iron skillet will grind it down in one generation. It was her mom's spoon, and grandma like to use it because it was one of the few things she got from her parents and she thought of her mom every time she used it.

The mechanics were busy drilling small holes in the length of the bolts that held things together, and removing a few milligrams of metal and then filling the hole with silicon. For the entire car that could not have come to one pound. Pretty radical to save a little weight.
