Deadly Spider in My Bedroom! Amazon Rainforest in Peru.

August 16, 2009 - 7:15 pm 25 Comments

That’s a Brazilian Wandering Spider invading my bed space while I was staying at a wallless Amazon Rainforest lodge in Peru. Thankfully, this spider only has six legs which is probably the only reason I am alive to post this video! Most venemous animal [correction: most deadly spider] in the world per the authoritative wikipedia. There is no electricity at night and it was cloudy, so there is absolutely zero source of light so when I started to see psychedelic like lights in my vision I thought it was either a reaction to severe sensory deprivation or a spiritual experience, but turned out to be an ocular migraine.

I almost forgot. I first saw the spider on the wall which was about 4 inches from the head of the bed, directly across from the mattress. I had just woken up and reached in front of the bed to get the key which I had hidden under the mattress. When I couldn’t find the key (TOTALLY DARK, no electricity), I got up to get a flashlight which is when I saw the spider. My hand must have literally been inches from the spider!
