To all you scary spiderfobias, I had the biggy. I was flying my plane at 4,500 ft over scrub when a dirty big brown spider crawled up my leg.
It was so heavy I could feel its weight as it moved ever so close to my family jewels. I said to it one more step and your out off here.......IT MOVED closer.........I opened the canopy & pulled a half roll flicking the nasty with my hand into the empty space above/ below/ out the side.
Never saw him again after that.
