Video - The Nasty Spider that was on the ceiling waiting to drop onto you.

This Spider was walking on the ceiling right above the telephone in the livingroom waiting to drop down your neck when you least expect it.  I've never seen a spider like this before, it had really long legs about 3" long when extended out and a very odd looking body.  This is in Derby, Derbyshire, United Kingdom.

Here is my video of the Nasty spider from Derby:

Even though I don't like Spiders in the house I did rescue it humanely using the old jam jar and postcard method. I had to use a large Pasta jar though as it was too big for the Jam jar and did not want to break its legs.


Have YOU ever seen a spider like this before?
Im glad I saw it in time rather than it dropping onto me while on the phone, imagine how horrid that would be !
Those long thin legs thrashing about on your skin !

thanks
Andy
