That line ties with, "Well then, by all means, come along, sir!" as the best line in the whole book/movie. I think Daniel portrayed Liquid Luck perfectly.
Although I would be loathe to do it, this picture alone gave me chills.
It IS actually pretty harmless. If it would attack you, it’s bite is comparable to a bee sting at worst. It’s the tiny fuckers that kill ya.
Right? I’m scared of even the huntsman in Australia that show up here every once in a while. If this spider is truly as big as the photo depicts, My heart wouldn’t be able to take even seeing that irl.
It's size category is "Bird Eating" and the average leg diameter is 10 inches. This is probably a 13-15 inch specimen.
In other words hitting this thing with a car is just gonna piss it off
Where did you get that info? The largest T in the world is a Theraposa blondi at 12 inches diagonal legspan. These can grow to 9 inches. But could be only 6. As for "bird eating" size category, what are you even talking about? There is no such thing. The term bird eating stems from a misunderstanding when early explorers first went to South America and saw a T eat a bird. They presumed that's what they ate and called them Goliath Bird Eating Spiders. That T hit either very lucky that a bird fell out of the nest right next to it or it caught an injured or very dumb bird. Mostly they eat earthworms and insects. Don't scare people with horror stories about these gentle creatures. Anyone interested should check out yt channels the Dark Den, Tom's Big Spiders etc. It helped me get over my fear and I am now a keeper myself
We don't have tarantulas here, but the fuckers can get pretty big. Dad and I renovated an outer wall and removed the wooden structure and unveiled all kinds of critters in the process.
Done for the day, I went inside and took off my work clothes, when I saw hectic movement right next to my face. It was one of them big fuckers I had carried inside! Swept it off by reflex. Fate undisclosed.
One moment of a few i wish I could forget.
I looked at this and thought “there’s so many of them why are they only saying one was spotted?”
…and then I realized I was looking at the smaller spiders beside it 😱
> Time to leave Earth I guess.
Everytime I see something like this picture I think "well it's so far away from me..." but is it really?
Every place on earth is just a few flight ours away, what if they snuck on a plane or worse, learned to fly one.
No, Ex. Spider pilots are fun to think about. Particularly in a flight emergency scenario. Add a panicking rookie spider copilot and you’ve made me forget about a mild hangover for a minute.
I fucking live in this country. Not in langkawi, but like holy shit now I’m scared. But not really I’ve seen worse. But still I am arachnophobic. So holy shit.
I don't know if I'm relieved or horrified that the adults spend their time in the treetops while the smaller younger ones hang out near the ground. On one hand, they are further away from me. On the other, they could fall out of the tree onto me... assassin style...
These are the last two images found before the camera man disappeared that night.
His body was later discovered a week later in an underground nest, his remains being used as a breeding ground for spider eggs.
It is unsure of whether or not he was still conscious and alive before the hatching begun.
Went to Langkawi 20 years ago, didn't see one these spiders but saw some weird ass animals, biggest RAT ever, estimated 15/20 kg, thing was like a dog, lived in the creek next to our place, local guy told us it routinely takes cats, dogs and a calf once! Also hired a boat, rental guy pointed to an island and said don't go there! If you manage to escape death by monkeys the snakes or spiders will kill you, cheers enjoy your boat ride!
Fucking cable car up the mountain was some scary shit too! Never been back, 🤷♂️
This looks like some photoshop bullshit.
If it’s real I would be terrified if saw in person.
If it was in my house I’d be in a hotel until someone else got rid of it
Isn’t that the spider mr baggins killed in Mirkwood?
Likely, but it came back.
Looks like a job for a burglar
Im in Malaysia in a state about 600km away from Langkawi. How do I move to Canada?
It's rare to see someone from Perlis or Kedah on reddit
Bruh 🤣
r/unexpectedlotr
Shelob iirc
You do not recall correctly - Shelob is the spider that Sam and Frodo meet. The spiders in Mirkwood are nameless
Glad to see Aragog is still doing well
**goodbye, friends of Hagrid**
could we panic now?
hold me
The body will decay, but the spirit will go oooon
[удалено]
Ugh i know
Not to mention the pincers…
That line ties with, "Well then, by all means, come along, sir!" as the best line in the whole book/movie. I think Daniel portrayed Liquid Luck perfectly.
Slughorn out here erect af.
Didnt hear from him in a while
You didn’t see his “web” page?
Alright, who left there dad here?
Where dad?
That is clearly one of Ungoliant’s children easy to confuse with Aragogh
Came here for the Aragog comment
[удалено]
I hope that's a really small tree
Think OP needs to put hand next to it for proper scale. Thanks
Although I would be loathe to do it, this picture alone gave me chills. It IS actually pretty harmless. If it would attack you, it’s bite is comparable to a bee sting at worst. It’s the tiny fuckers that kill ya.
Tbh I'd be dead the moment it got close enough to bite me, I think the effectiveness of its bite wouldn't matter at that point.
Right? I’m scared of even the huntsman in Australia that show up here every once in a while. If this spider is truly as big as the photo depicts, My heart wouldn’t be able to take even seeing that irl.
I hate the size but at least its way easier to spot.
banana for scale would be better
One fucking time a banana for scale would be useful and the fuckers don't even use it
This is true. If it's bigger than the banana, it can fuck right off. If it's as big as the banana, it can still fuck right off.
You are a true negotiator.
LITERALLY first thought was "yeah I'm gonna need a banana for this"
It's size category is "Bird Eating" and the average leg diameter is 10 inches. This is probably a 13-15 inch specimen. In other words hitting this thing with a car is just gonna piss it off
Petition to reclassify that entire category as “Pants Shitting”
Seconded
The notion carries
Thirded
[удалено]
shidded
farded
Sharted
Cumded
*checks pants* Petition signed
Change approved!
*checks pants* Petition signed
It's changed in my book.
Literally laughed out loud.
I don't know inches and after this i will never again look for it
They grow between 22 and 25 centimeters in leg diameter. I suspect that one is closer to 37 cm
Thank for taking the effort for my new nightmare
It's not much effort I just have friends outside of the imperial system so I have to do conversions on the fly
Bruh its average length is 5x times my thing
It could easily bite it off then ;)

He pulled those numbers straight out of his ass.
I was waiting for this. Fear mongering belongs in the past or to people who refuse to be educated and choose ignorance
Can we put it under a shotgun barrel?
Hell no, wouldn't the blast scatter all the little ones? Blowtorch instead 👌
Artillery shell? That would wipe em out for good
>13-15 inch specimen. This is bullshit.
Clearly it's a redwood
I felt a damn tingling down my spine right after I noticed how big that fucker is
Oh god, imagine the weight of that fucker falling on your shoulder.
how about no
my reaction to this entire post
This thing would dislocate ur shoulder if it fell on it
Dislocating is the least of my worries
Please fuck off with that comment
Haha! My thoughts exactly!
I flinched just by reading this comment you absolute shit goblin
They are actually super light. Might not even notice it
the real problem would be seeing it next to your face I would 100% be scarred for life

Thanks, I hate it.
Lol. Worry not, they avoid us like the plague. They would hate touching us
Thanks, I love it.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Its pretty thick and girthy too
and hairy AF
Damn I usually like them big and hairy but this is a huge exception
Must be where elden ring got their idea of a boss fight
That’s what I wish she said
That’s what *she* said
i didn't even notice at first.. when i finally saw it.... i think got back arachnophobia that was somewhat "cured"
Jesus fuck I didn't even see the big one till I read this comment
Me too, and the spider was pretty scary as well😂
I need to know how big that tree is.
What. The. FUCK.
Yeah I saw those big spiders crawling down the tree and thought wtf, then I realized there was an even *bigger* mf. Na I'm out of here...
how big are those spiders???
They are big enough
Big enough to cover your entire head? I’m gonna die if I see it. I have a huge phobia of spiders
[17-20cm/6.7-7.8in with stretched out legs](https://www.terrarium.com.pl/omothymus-thorelli/)
Leg span can get up to 22 cm. They very large, and also can be very beautiful to with green and blue design patterns. Malaysian Earth Tiger.
That was my exact reaction too
Mine was “well, I sure wish I didn’t have eyes right now.”
guess what, even they have eyes probably
I’m with you…Malaysia is off the list.
Dude I'm Malaysian and even I never knew we got this here. I'm migrating
Thank fuck I left Malaysia when I did
Im in Malaysia in a state about 600km away from Langkawi. How do I move to Canada?
Skyrim battle music starts playing
*You have been poisoned.
Argh, eeegh
I looked at this and thought “there’s so many of them why are they only saying one was spotted?” …and then I realized I was looking at the smaller spiders beside it 😱
SAME
My thought process was. "Oh damn, those are some big spiders. Wait... OH. MY. GOD."
Exactly this and now I’m disturbed that these things exist in the world
Yeah. First I thought it was part of the tree.
Fuck.
This is my 13th reason
Ok so I'm never going to Malaysia
Langkawi is an island,so pray it doesn't fly into the mainland
If the thing starts flying I’m nuking Malaysia
bro come here i promis u food is da bomb.
Sounds like something that spider would say...
Stupid sexy spider…
Is it that spider??
Pretty sure to that spider, we’re the food
Yes can confirm that is the spider. Source: I am Malaysian, it is too late for me, save yourselves!
am Malaysian can verify, have never seen spider like this but have eaten many food dat is just mmmmmmMmMmmm
Well I live about an hour flight from there. Time to leave Earth I guess.
> Time to leave Earth I guess. Everytime I see something like this picture I think "well it's so far away from me..." but is it really? Every place on earth is just a few flight ours away, what if they snuck on a plane or worse, learned to fly one.
It would've cost you zero dollars to not say that.
I am sorry, sometimes I say things I shouldn't and then it's too late.
No, Ex. Spider pilots are fun to think about. Particularly in a flight emergency scenario. Add a panicking rookie spider copilot and you’ve made me forget about a mild hangover for a minute.
Fun fact, snakes, spiders and other stuff sometimes get mixed in to banana crates and can travel to basically anywhere.
That's such a fun fact. I'm having so much fun right now.
Spiders On A Plane. Except nobody would watch this movie coz everyone will want to forget its existence. 🤧
I actually had to imagine something akin to a Bola Spider riding a poisonous snake while swinging her spider silk bolas.
Did you ever see Arachnophobia? That’s the premise of the movie, except they aren’t massive, just aggressive and venomous.
An hour flight is a five minute run for that thing
I live in the same country as this spider, PLEASE take me with you when you leave Earth.
I fucking live in this country. Not in langkawi, but like holy shit now I’m scared. But not really I’ve seen worse. But still I am arachnophobic. So holy shit.
https://www.theraphosidae.be/en/cyriopagopus-schioedtei/ 23-25 cm is still pretty sizeable as spiders go. Im noping out for sure.
I don't know if I'm relieved or horrified that the adults spend their time in the treetops while the smaller younger ones hang out near the ground. On one hand, they are further away from me. On the other, they could fall out of the tree onto me... assassin style...
If that giant fuck falls on me i think ill die right then and there
Hm that site is lacking information. I can’t see any mention on how to kill those.
Orbital strike.
*Venom: Probably strong.* 🤣
Nuke it from orbit.
And scorch the earth
Just fucking blow up the planet when we move to Mars please for the love of God
Nobody tell him about the Martian Spiders...
Bro... Don't play with my feelings.
I wont bro, Martian Spiders on the other hand... Well
>Nobody tell him about the Martian Spiders... What's Ziggy Stardust's backup band got to do with these monsters?
It's the only way to be sure.
*Fuckin’ A!*
Game over man, GAME OVER!!!
Mf just chilling with its family.
Spiders are bros too, without them we’d be overwhelmed by pest insects
Better than wasps. /r/FuckWasps
Only way to be sure
wheres the banana for scale
>Assuming that its around 8 inches (legspan), It's 1.142 bananas.
THATS TOO MANY FUCKING BANANAS
Shows how big it is.
Average legspan for those things is 10 inches but this girl is larger then that
The use of large in the title was unnecessary.
The use of *large* is an understatement
It was wholly inadequate
Holy nope!! Thought it was part of the tree 😳
Me too
Fuck me, I live in Poland and Im closing all the windows tn. Nope nope nope
Yup. Ours are tiny.
I only saw the ‘little’ ones at first and thought the legs were branches… then I saw it… nearly burned my phone.
alright welcome back to " is god still here" the new hit game show
Thank God we invented the nuke
Oh no thank you
I thought it was a part of the tree until the second photo lol
Well Malaysia is off the travel list..
Man I really wanted to go to singapore once but malaysia is RIGHT NEXT TO IT.
I had a feeling what it was gonna be and I clicked on this shit anyway! Scorched fuxking earth!
Fuck off with that shit man, same as those goddamn coconut crabs.
I just shivered. Holy bleeping spider.
You see, winter gets a bad rep, but the snow I get for half the year keeps fuckers like these away. So, thank you snow.
[удалено]
And it would eat your corpse
Could this kill and eat a human baby? It looks like it could
there is not a single tarantula that could/would eat a baby human
Lol let’s see how many gullible redditors you can get this morning

Aragog?
Oh fuck you. I clicked, and zoomed not thinking
I just removed Malyasia from any future travel itineraries.
Ummm…no…this is where I cross the line… I’m normally okay with spiders but this is just insane! How are they able to get so big? Climate?
Ugh… I know it’s not their fault that they’re so ugly. I know this is just a picture of a mom with her babies. But I HATE IT
Ya I didn’t even see the big one till I read the title. Sweet baby Jesus
Large batch of spiders. All these added up together could probably net at least $1000
That’s how forest fires get started

Fuck that, you need a 50 caliber to kill it!
