Here's one: they're all female. I had one on my hand - I thought I'd DIE. Scarier than paragliding....

Looks kind of like a banana spider, which are typically harmless.

Oh good grief...sitting here is close enough. I hope it stayed still and didn't crawl around...that's the worst thing. xxx

I'm scared of them, not as much as I used to be, read up on them and they are really interesting...but why do they have to look so bloomin creepy??

I'm not scared of spiders myself, but that one would make me step back.

presumably they are not all female otherwise it would be a short lived species?

That thing can fit into my hand. I'm scared!!!!

I'm not normally scared of spiders, but that one is impressively scary! It's a beautiful colour though.
