The Brazilian Wandering Spider's venom is 30 times more powerful than that of a rattlesnake.
It is incredibly hardy and can survive being frozen, thrown in boiling water and even microwaved for a short period.
If one of its legs becomes damaged it will amputate it with its own mouth - a new shorter leg growing within a few weeks.
Its leg span can reach six inches and it frequently takes up residence in clothes or shoes and, if disturbed, often bites repeatedly in a matter of a couple of seconds.

It really depends, funnel webs fangs are 5~7mm long and can inject large volumes of neurotoxic venom. They can't jump, they can't run when in strike position, males are 6 times more poisonous than females and live for about 4 years max. Females can live for 30 years. Depending on the gender of the funnel web, males can kill an adult within 15 minutes and females can kill an adult within 1-3 days. Not sure about the child, but males kill less than 10 minutes, and females kill within 15 minutes.

Actually, it has only been on record for killing a child within 15 minutes. Untreated bites to adults typically take 1 to 3 days to prove fatal.

I just searched all the places where Tarantulas live. They're almost worldwide. And they live in the Philippines! I LIVE THERE:S

a funnel web can kill an adult within 15 minutes.

the funnel web spider has a toxin with around the same strength and its fangs can even penetrate toenails.

You know what the weird thing is? The venom of the Brazilian Wandering Spider is known to cause painful erections lasting several hours. What's funnier still is that this is actually a sign of a lethal dose of venom, and you'll probably end up dying before your stiffy goes away! I pity the doctors that have to work with that. You know the guy is in serious trouble, but it's just so damn funny!
