Arachnophobes Look Away Now: Is This The Biggest Spider You've Ever Seen Or What?

Spiders are the devil incarnate. I hate them. Writing this article has given me the shakes and I've even had to stand outside and take deep, calming breaths just to make it to the end.

But it's all worth it, because this spider is FUCKING MASSIVE and you need to see it.

These pictures were taken last October at an animal rescue farm in Queensland's Brisbane Valley. Of course it was Australia. Where else?!

According to Daily Mail, the pictures have recently gone viral again and it's not hard to see why.

Look...

KILL IT. KILL IT WITH FIRE.

One person commented: "100% approve of and respect what you're doing here, but please, for the love of God keep that thing and all of its family and friends OVER THERE and the heck away from me." Another wrote: "Why In HOLY HELL would you touch this horrible fucking demon spawn!?!"

Okay, obviously all animals are great and we wouldn't wish harm on any of them (have we learned nothing from our Lord and saviour, Harambe?) so we don't want it to die. Just never, ever come near us. Ever.
