Most people have heard of the dangers of encountering venomous animals in the wild—specifically, snakes and spiders. However, one particular spider, the black widow, may not be as lethal as previously believed. Yet, it’s still a bad idea to encourage them to bite because the effects can be long-lasting. Either way, a YouTube channel popular for its daring encounters with wildlife has shown what happens when the spider does attack.
Jack points out that it actually takes quite a bit to provoke a black widow. “Again, these widow spiders a very, very, very reluctant to bite. The only way you’re realistically going to be bitten by a black widow is if you pin it to your skin.” He explained. “So, if you’re leaving your shoes outside, check your shoes. If you’re leaving stuff in your garage that you’re putting on, check it before you put it on.“
