BurnSide Posted February 24, 2005 #4 Share Posted February 24, 2005 The biggest spiders in the world are either the Bird-Eating Spider, or the Goliath Spider, i can't remember which. They grow in diameter with legs spread to about the size of an average dinner plate. Theres nothing bigger in Arachnids. Until recently it was thought that there lived an ancient, now extinct form of Spider that did grow to such lengths, but it was recently found to be actually a Sea Scorpion, a type of crustacion that lived about 30 million years ago.

The clock appears to be approximately 8 to 10 inches across. I'm metric illiterate, so if anyone wants to convert that to cm, km or kg... by all means, please do. The "spider behind the clock" pics are old, indeed. They've been floating around the internet for a few years now. No matter how many times I see them, they still creep me out.

Dezmond Posted February 25, 2005 #25 Share Posted February 25, 2005 (edited) I was cleaing our garage when I found like 5 of these spiders, like the picture. I was so scared, I hate any spider that grows longer then 5cm (2inch). Luckily I had one of those rackets to catch flies which uses electricity to kill them. But a smell that it gave, JUG....
