Australia... A man there let a huge huntsman spider live in his house.

Despite their often large and hairy apearance, huntsman spiders are not considered to be dangerous spiders. As with most spiders, they do possess venom, and a bite may cause some ill effects. However, they are quite reluctant to bite, and will usually try to run away rather than be aggressive.

A huntsman spider has a terrifying reputation due to their size and speed. Aftr all, they are very large, very fast ambush hunters.

Huntsmen are quite beneficial spiders in many ways.

They're very fond of eating other creepy crawlies that we don't like having around the house, such as cockroaches, mosquitoes and flies, caterpillars, moths and other spiders, the reason the man let it live in his house.

Same, we had a medium sized one last summer in the spare room. Poor bugger only had 5 ½ legs. Regrew 2 legs over 2-3 months then disappeared.

I missed him after he left...

I used to do this, but the wife doesn't agree :p

Have one in the shed. Keeps bugs and mice away.

Australians are weird 😂. Or more courageous than me

I'm sorry has this gentleman never seen Aliens?

Like these, you mean?:

I'm pretty sure those are Gremlins and Captain Kirk died in that episode.

Tribbles and Kirk never dies, only the guys wearing red shirts die 😂
