Lucky when it said big spider I thought it just meant a bit big not one that’s like the size of a fully grown mans hand and really really hairy it’s lucky I was watching on my tv or I would have done what you would have done and thrown my phone
I was scared of even clicking on the video because I know the type of posts that get posted on this sub, but the fact that mr.editor is such a G I could actually watch it seen so many videos without warnings that almost give me panic attacks
as an Australian we do not need to check our toilets for snakes or spiders, if you live in a place known for spiders or snakes then it may be different. The only animals I've found in my toilet was like, 4 green tree frogs lol
Cheers for that info! I’m not from the USA so I was pretty curious. It’s funny how I’ve been told by Americans that they’re too scared of Australian wildlife to visit us, but youse have bears and mountain lions. They’re cool but not something I’d like to get up and personal with. 😳
@@tiredfrog308 I'm sorry but I could never deal with the giant spiders y'all have over there😅. Like I don't even really have arachnophobia, and those seem awful. I guess I never really thought about mountain lions too much, I've just been warned not to go off hiking trails in areas where they are and haven't seen one in the wild yet so🤷♀️.
@@tiredfrog308 Most areas of the states don't have enough of those guys for interactions to be frequent or a real issue. And even if interactions do occur, most times it will be black bears or mountain lions which rarely attack people and are relatively easy to deter, fight off or avoid interacting with altogether. I have a healthy fear/respect of wildlife encounters for when I'm hiking here but honestly just being aware that they might be around and staying calm and aware of what to do if you come across them helps a lot with that. Insects and arachnids unfortunately tend to inhabit the same areas humans do and thrive there so you get more interactions with em. Personally my fear is triggered most by the fast and twitchy movements. A lot of them have the first defense instinct to bite which doesn't help settle my fear much lol.
as an australian you’re more likely to find frogs in your toilet but it’s usually traditional to check the toilet in a new place but once you trust the toilet you trust it
@@Hoppler-k6o I dont know Australian states. But I know where all the green stuff is in Australia. So he is probably either near Darwin or Sydney. Or maybe even On Tasmania. Because from what I know about frogs they dont like deserts.
I've been living in Australia for 7 years and have literally never heard a single person ever say that. Spiders/snakes are mobile creatures - it makes no sense at all to "trust" a toilet! The only times I ever check are in rural areas in bathrooms that are open to the elements.
Australian here, checking the loo for a spider or snake it really depends where you live, getting a frog in the toilet is a common one but my wife who’s from 2 hours out of Darwin had to check for snakes and spiders in the toilet, bathroom in general. But definitely does happen. She got pushed down the stairs as a kid to avoid getting bite by a snake once.
I feel like George is the ultimate dude, he’s relatable, he’s not offensive, has never been cancelled (I think), and is just a normal dude while still being a good content creator
He’s relatable and down to earth in the best way. As in he’s fun to watch but not the type of relatable that’ll breed parasocial obsessions Cus we all know. He’s just a guy.
I thank the editor for having that warning some people just are too lazy to add a warning about spiders in videos especially massive ones. Like i would piss myself 😭
there was once two redbacks living in our toilet when i was growing up. When we got rid of them, i did not use it for a full 2 weeks. nope.@@persephoenix
The video around 3:50 is from a guy I just told off who keeps reposting the vid trying to get viral. He breeds and tells tarantulas for a living, he's in the same hobby/business I am. He lives in the US where burgandy goliath birdeaters (what that is) are not ever found. It's just his pet that he stressed out for views lol.
@@beanbag6442 Seriously 😓 Tarantulas are extremely prone to stress, more than most other spiders. Even simply handling one too frequently can stress them enough to kill them. It’s less of an issue for arboreal species (who have adapted to a more stressful and changing environment), but for partially fossorial (burrow-dwelling) species like the one in the vid it’s really bad :( You can actually see venom on the side of the cup where the tarantula tried to bite in defense.
5:30 That's a King Ratsnake. Thanks to Leomoth for helping me actually figure what this snake is. However, it means the video is mostly faked as these snakes are common in the pet trade and not typically found where the video was taken (as told by the comments of the og reddit post)
Looking into it further I am very confident it’s a colubrid. Hard to tell which specifically without clearer images but the head shape gives it away. You may have mistaken it for a Malabarian Pit Viper, since some individuals have similar patterning, but they have a distinctly triangular head. May be a good idea to correct the comment since spreading misinfo should be avoided when possible 😅
@@leomoths looking at the headshape, I don't think so. Colubrids head's are a lot thinner than the snake in the video, especially near the neck or where the head connects to the skull. Of course, Im not a snake expert so I'll be doing more research on it. Edit: according to the original post, it is a King Ratsnake which does belong to Colubridae. And the comments on said post say the video is fake as the ratsnake is a common pet trade snake where this was filmed and usually aren't found there.
@@vaporkay7831 King rat-snake definitely makes sense. Some colubrids do have wider skulls, but vipers are definitely much more triangular and wide. Also helpful to look at the eyes and head scales when looking for an ID, as those also help!
As an Australian I check for spiders as snakes get way to overhyped in my part at least, the worst experience I could say is had with a snake is when walking home from school I’d short cut through a patch of bush and ended up putting may foot right next to snake
i remember walking in the bush with my sister when visiting grandparents, and i see a big snake slide over my sisters foot in front of me, i think i might of had a heart attack.
This video makes me so fucking thankful i live in a nation where there are no dangerous spiders, and only one somewhat dangerous snake thats not even leathal
So Mormon Crickets are actually just flightless locust essentially. They lay eggs that incubate for decades till they're just right and then they all hatch at once. As in the majority of the species rebirths at one time, hence the abundance of them. I believe Lindsay Nicole did a video on them which is where I learned that.
So, the postbox one, they had tongs ready. Which means this kind of thing has happened before. God Australia is horrifying. Also props for the spider warnings.
Mate any kind of dark space that gets left alone for a while will always somehow magically generate a huntsman or sometimes something even worse. I’ve closed doors and had spiders bigger than a large dinner plate be right next to me on the other side Truly traumatising stuff, maybe I should move to iceland
@@searlyt That's not just an Aussie thing though, it's anywhere. If it's dark and relatively cool, a spider will love it. It's why you always find them in basements and stuff.
He said before that it's just the knot + end bits of his bandana BUT that does look mighty like hair. I'm hesitant to say ponytail-memeulous confirmed but 👀
That thing spinning out of the shower drain.. Block of flats, someone has a blocked drain, plumber has a long spinning cable that they put down the blocked drain. Sometimes it takes a wrong turn and comes out in another flats drain.
As an Australian, you only check the seat if its an out house or under the house (alot of our houses are raised, so like a basement thats out in the open) most of the time it just depends on the bog and where it is. Shit you really gotta check. Even in the city, it is your shoes, the ground. Spiders like making a home in shoes overnight, got alot of snakes that hide in leaves and rocks.
aussie here! no we don't check our toilets, at least in majority of places. but public toilets near parks and reserves should be checked in certain seasons, not just for spiders and snakes, but also for frogs!
9:12 in the jellyfish video, the man doesnt know its a jellyfish. the caption says “anyone who knows what this is? it stings” and when the man first holds the jellyfish he says “guys we just caught an octopus”
I'm an aussie, yes you do need to check everywhere In your boots especially A woman once died because a brown snake got under her car chair, like it's bad 😂
I grew up in South Africa, and I still look under the toilet seat instinctively, just because there was a spider one time! Even though I live in Scotland now I still cant help looking just in case, although I think I'm just being paranoid.
i’ve seen too many vids and pics of ppl getting stung by jelly’s to even CONSIDER poking one much less picking one up. those lil fuckers can still sting when dead and i’m not having it
As an Aussie you do not need to check your toilets but you cannot step in long grass or leave the door open in the summer a brown snake snuck into my house once and was hiding in a bedroom
10:23 this happened to me the second time I ever drove, the first stage of panic is trying to figure out whether it’s on the outside or on the inside… you’ll never guess where I’m from 😂🇦🇺
I do as an australian check under the toilet seat for spiders but that is probably just paranoia, although when I was camping once I went to the toilet block and saw a spider on the seat after I had sat down and that was scary as hell for an eight year old.
Went camping one time, got up to piss and came back with a good size huntsman (I wanna say 20cm or so) just wandering around on my pillow and since then I’ve never camped again
@@searlyt yep, my experience on the toilet just made me cautious around toilets, I still love camping but if I saw a huntsman on my pillow I would be scared shitless. I see why you don't want to go camping again.
