Spider Babies Explode in Broom Attack, Death Bows His Head and Weeps
A couple in Hallett Cove, South Australia filmed themselves killing a wolf spider with a broom recently. Did they film themselves because they knew it would explode with hundreds of baby spiders, making for a brutal and terrifying video? Almost certainly. Should you watch it? Almost certainly you should not. And yet.
How wonderful is Death,
Death, and his brother Sleep!
One, pale as yonder waning moon
With lips of lurid blue;
The other, rosy as the morn
When throned on ocean’s wave
It blushes o’er the world:
Yet both so passing wonderful!
—Spider in the video, 2015 (I think)
