SPIDER ESCAPE! Dealing with super fast Huntsman spiders... 

"Is this real life, Is this just fantasy? I need a lid."

I love the minecraft music in the background as everything is going wrong

The third one was tired from laughing at your struggle and could not run

Petko: oohh it's in the cup! Spider: nice, my teleport cooldown is over :) *plop*

this video was an emotional rollercoster. i feel bad for petko

That WAS chaos. huntsman escaped, Thor's door broke off, glass shattered. huntsman hid under the table, Thor attempt to escape as well. huntsman caught and rehoused, Thor contained. Good lord, Petko. Wild times.

Petko, I just want to say thank you. It may not seem like much but you’ve helped me conquer my arachnophobia. It was to the point that I would have a panic attack because I saw a spider. I fainted a few times because a spider was in my bedroom. Every night, I would search my whole house, under the furniture, under every mat, shoe etc before I went to bed. I would look in every corner of every room and it would take me atleast 2 hours before I could go to sleep. I had days where I couldn’t go to work because I saw a spider by my window and I was so afraid of it coming inside and it disappeared so I “knew” it was in my house somewhere. Long story short, yesterday I managed to cup a big spider in my living room and I felt calm, I even managed to look at it through the cup and I released it in my neighbors back garden. It’s a huge step and I have you to thank, I have watched your videos for over a year and I now get so excited to see the next one. Thank you

Petko: I got him in the cup Huntsman: *sike you thought* The Minecraft music is quite a nice touch

First time seeing poor petko close to a rage quit 🤣

In English the saying is usually “misery loves company”

Hey, you actually do have one female (bulkier/wider carapace) and two males (markings on the carapace and thin front legs) and all three are pretty shortly before maturity, watch out for the little boxing gloves on the smaller ones.

I’m sorry you had to go through that but let’s be honest that was the funniest RU-vid video we’ve all watched in a long time 😂

Broom and dust pan in hands throws them up “this is getting out of hand” 😂😂😂😂

And now we are all EXTRA glad you didn't do the rehouse off camera. 📷

Huntsman: sprints Petko: *Why do I hear boss music?*

He called the substrate "substrit"! My dude!

How funny is Thor! Usually always hiding but as soon as he's doors comes off and a bit of confusion he's out and about!

"Trouble always comes in threes" is another common expression, ironic given your situation today 😂

2 years ago a huntsman spider invaded my house! I was amazed how fast it was, never seen a spider like that before. Catching it was very difficult, especially while my mum and bro were super scared and shouting to kill it with fire lol

When that door panel fell off I about died laughing

You realize that you hunting the spider made you a huntsman, right? 😜

Seeing Petko going through every Aussies rite of passage is gold. 😂😂😂

I felt that stress with you, Petko. That was intense!

This man's "Is this real life or is it just fantasy?" killed me. I have never seen such an accurate video of spider keeping in my life lol 😂

Great choice of spider catching music XD

The last spider took pity on you after the second rehouse- even posed for a close-up beauty shot! My heart was beating almost as fast as that second spider moved, in sympathy with your heart I imagine. Glad you caught it! 😥😁

I just kept hearing Homer sing "spiderpig spiderpig does whatever a spiderpig does". Good job on filming during the recapture. I would have forgotten the camera and the hunter still would have gotten away.

"You mother-" Petko looks at camera, realizing his situation. "Fffffffffffffffffff!!!" Good catch, Petko.

Thor enjoying the free entertainment like: 👁 •__• 👁 "what's going on out there, buddy?"

Says he’s running 5 minutes late, but still takes time for the micro lens. This is why we love Petko always providing the best content !!

I love the mine craft music in the back ground

In the states we have the phrase: “when it rains, it pours”

I'd be screamin like a 4-year-old. 😂 This episode is so good... I've got to watch it twice. Great job, Petko! 🤟😎🤟

"I prepared the substrate" and "I mixed the substrate" are both perfect English.

"If my RU-vid business fails, maybe I can make furniture" Spider: Get your screwdriver ready. I'm about to end your whole career.

I couldn’t stop laughing. Petko’s frustration is hilarious and to catch an escapist huntsman spider seems like a pain in the ass. Awesome video.

Not only do i love ur energy but not everyone notices how much time these videos take u to make ur dedication is on another level

This is me, every other month in australia, surprised by a big-'un in my home, and then wondering where the hell it went! - like that laboratory-hand/crab-alien scene from Aliens... 😀

Best episode ever! Trying not to wake my kids with my sudden screams and belly laughs. This was epic.

I was trying hard not to laugh at the struggle of a escape tarantula... but your reaction was priceless😆

"It looks like he is just smiling at my situation." 😂 He was just watching you run around... So funny! You have to be particularly careful with transporting spiders.. Roflol I know this was a super frustrating video for you but honestly this is RU-vid gold! ❤️

Best episode ever 😂😂😂 I really enjoyed your little breakdown 😂

the chill minecraft music amongst absolute chaos describes my life perfectly, thank you for this visual/audio representation Petko

As an Australian, I have personally had giant ones of these guys in my car. Bloody scary, Especially as 80km.

I'm so sorry that your struggle brings me joy , in an empathetic way.

For your doors, the hinges are adjustable so you shouldn't have to re-cut and make the doors, you can adjust the left to right and "move" the door more to the side you need to adjust it to

Petko: “...potentially bolty rehouse” Me: “I’m in!”

That was a close one! Luckily you were able to find it.

And you didn't want to record this riveting content... tsk tsk. 🤣 I'm so glad everything worked out and everyone is safe and good, thank you and I apologize as I am one of the ones who was pushing for you to record all of the rehouses, lol. Sorry 😅 love from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania xx

Your anger is still as soft and kind as you are normally. That was a twist.

Deep breath Petco...take big deep breath..let it out very slowly...repeat 2 more times. It really works to reduce stress...and once the chaos is over...a nice hot cup of Earl Grey.💓

Glad it all endep up well, also makes me feel better about laughing so hard during the video. One of your best episodes :)

That was intense Petko! I feel that thors grin did not help with keeping calm

As others were saying we have multiple sayings of that same thing in English, one I thought of when watching this video was “bad things come in threes”

Of course, the only spider to ever make Petko rage on RU-vid was a huntsman. As expected.

You did great catching the Huntsman spider. No one can predict when a spider will bolt. Well done.

One of my favorite episodes :D

All the Tarantulas nearby will tell their neighbors. "You guys will never believe it, he almost got away from the hooman"

"It's very dark down here" Yup, it's the dark den. ❤

Hello Petko, not sure if anyone has already mentioned but that gap on the door can be adjusted to minimize it. At 2:10 of the video I can see that the first set screw on the hinge body is sticking out and if you tighten or advance it clockwise it will adjust the position of the door. Although the gap does look significant and I'm not sure if that will close it up all the way. Hope it works out!

Nice shots, quite some action, Minecraft plus Bohemian Rhapsody - perfect!! 👍

The Huntsmen becomes the Hunted

I'm looking for escaped huntsman spiders in my house... but I don't own any 😬 This was intense!!! 🤣

I am sorry that you were stressed but I can relate. Super entertaining!

Just for in the future of any escapees behind furniture... perhaps you should get a long-handled aquarium net? Then you could net them (carefully) and gently pull them to a reachable place without having to move the furniture as much.

Im glad everything worked out in the end.

I love this channel so much! I’ve learned a lot from you and your voice is so relaxing.

Alright! Been waiting patiently all day haha

You are so much fun to watch, thank you for welcoming all of us into your world!

This my all time favorite! Your reactions are Oscar worthy. And it was a great example of spider teleportation😂

That was very entertaining! I'm glad you recorded this rehousing! The huntsmand spiders are gorgeous too!

We have a huntsman on the wall in the next room. They like chillin on walls. I think you’re right saying he wanted his enclosure to be behind the table 😂 Most of ours look like that last colour presentation

"It is important that I catch this spider..." said with a fly swat in hand! 🤣🤣🤣

also amazing shot of you cupping/catching the spider!

Petko: tries to rehouse a spider in a much more comfy and beautiful enclosure to please it Huntsman spider: "nah i want your entire basement." Thor: "what's going on here? too much chaos gotta escape." Felix in the background: "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON BACK THERE IM TRYING TO SLEEP!"

So glad you were able to recover the runaway😳 Very exciting video. Tyfs. Another great PETKO video😊

I love the huntsman spiders but thank goodness Petko got them all! Great content 😁

glad you have this on video made my day my man

Awesome video with some comedy, I enjoyed your struggles, huntsman have good eye sight don't forget

“Is this real life or this just a fantasy” - Petko, I really like you saying Iron Maiden lyric during the trouble. 😂

In the english language, we have a saying that goes "bad things always happen in 3s" so 1) huntsman escape, 2) glass door, 3) you're late for wherever you had to go. Never fails.

Really enjoy his channel glad It popped up in my timeline ☺️

After multiple years of watching, I will never get tired of your action packed videos!!! Keep up the great work man, never change!

8:30 ..what a cool magic Trick.. We all know this "I just rehouse a spider quick" evenings turning out to a total nightshift full of Adrenalin..

So exciting. I could feel your relief when the lid was on and the door closed. 🕷

thank you for playing that soothing minecraft music when you were looking for the spider, it made it not such an anxiety inducing situation to watch.

Brilliant video as usual, a similar saying is "it never rains it pours" I also think it applied to the situation, I'm amazed how calm you "appear" to be, Well Done. X

I was on the edge of my seat for this one, lol well done on keeping your cool :D

Thank you. I enjoy watching rehouses. 😁

That was a great video! I laughed out loud when the glass broke after the spider escaped.

11:15 in germany we got a very similar saying ein Unglück kommt selten allein which translates to misfortune rarely comes alone :D 12:15 "its kiting me" that is how you recognize a true gamer ❤

Good name for the little escape artist...Berserker😂

OMG! Poor you! Thanks for recording your bad day…I feel so much better about my bad days now! 👍

Ive never seen a spider cause so much drama and chaos in one place 😂 what a polava!

Loved the brief WoW music when the spider bolted :')

😂😂😂 this was soo much fun to watch, thanks for sharing this with us, to be honest I thought all of them would run

This is very hard to rehouse Huntsman spider but you did it... Congratulations and keep it up 🤘

For some reason I loved it when the door randomly fell off, I had a genuine laugh😂 And the Minecraft music is cool, too.

I absolutely adore their fluffy little pedipalps!!!!

I use the same substrate mixture but where you add sand for texture I add fresh vesicularia montagnei for colour. I grow it in an aquarium with just the moss in it and when it is full I pull half, shred it and mix it into my substrate container. It adds some really beautiful colour to the terrarium and the tarantula loves to manipulate/use it.
