1. No matter what species of spider it was, you are a better and braver person than I (and most likely many many more!). Thank you for putting yourself in a precarious position in order to get the spider out of one. Bravo!

2. If these photos are QLD
   Well you wouldn’t be wearing winter gear and the houses and scenery were all wrong
   It’s tropical Queensland not a cold winter with rain storms

3. Awesome spider, but definitely not "enormous."

4. This chap has the right to a life as much as any other creature, brilliant job on saving him

5. I used to live in north west Australia in the middle of nowhere. Right on the Indian ocean. This is not a big spider. This looks like a newborn of a huntsman spider. They are at least as wide as a dinner plate! They are also harmless to humans. We used to let them crawl on us because they tickle And they're very gentle. I'm American if I didn't mention that And I learned to dive and snorkel while I was in Australia Every time I would go in the water there would be at least 1⁄2 a dozen great whites swimming around me. But they never bothered me or anybody else. When you swim with sharks you are not afraid of spiders. Even the biggest ones! 🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷

6. The cows are poisonous in Australia!

7. In the 1960's I wanted to move to Australia. But thank GOD we stayed stateside. The venomous critters freak me out. Even though I am an ecological aware person – NO THANKS!

8. I would not of touched it . Eeek. sorry yet good someone was brave.

9. Well done. All animal life is also precious and plays their part in the ecosystem.

10. When I lived up in Far North Queensland just near Townsville, during a break in very heavy tropical rain with flooding, my ex husband & I went out to have a look around our property. We had a creek running through our place which was flooded & we came across a beautiful little Spotted Python stranded in a tree in the middle of the creek. My ex waded in and rescued the pretty little fellow, we put him in the shed where he lived happily for several years.

11. All GODS CREATURES SERVE A PURPOSE. IT A BEAUTIFUL SPIDER 🕷

12. Hate videos with fake video filler added.

13. Shame on you for FAILING TO USE 100% Australian photo footage !!!!!!!

14. 🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️ 🕸️🕸️🕸️🕸️

15. Sounds like useless bull**

16. Thanks for NOT showing us respect with photos of Asian and US events and non of ours which were /are online so you can edit better. Either Lazy or thinking no one will notice. Give a ways were foreign lettering on shops, US flag in photo and small details. Try harder next time, please.

17. Spiders kinda creepy me out, but I think I would have tried to help it, too. I don't think I could've just left it to die..🤷🕸🕷

18. God bless the Australians! They know how important all the critters are for the ecology.

19. All creatures, great and small. 💝🌎💝

20. Never fear, it's Charlotte's Web🕷🕸

21. Maybe I have greater faith in humanity, than it usually has in itself. We have all noticed in times of extreme stress, peril, catastrophe, humans rise to the level of their better selves. Dear fellow humans, I love you, even with all your warts.

22. Ew (But glad it was saved)

23. They certainly do suffer when involved in disasters too.

24. Interesting, we in the USA only have widow spiders. Not so bad as funnel web.

25. Get to the point.

26. Seriously that's one scary spider & one brave woman but if I was in that situation I would try to help 😯 Canada has a few poisonous spiders but Thank god not like US & other countries . 🙈🙉🙊

27. I don’t believe I would have rescued it to creepy crawly for me it might have been put in a box and sent somewhere

28. Thank, You!

29. It's not the big "ugly" spiders that you need to worry about her in Aus. They can be seen and avoided. It is the little buggers like Red Backs and White Tails that you need to look out for. They hide easily. Red back females can be highly venomous and White Tails can hurt big time.
    Like a lot of animals, including dogs, the big mainly look scary, but the little ones seem to have an inferiority complex and can get real nasty.

30. Hello I am subscribed to your Channel and I appreciate most of your videos however I don't believe that most of your subscribers or viewers appreciate the extraneous information included in the video I believe most people want enough information to make since of the video but not be overwhelmed by nonsensical b***** I don't understand reasoning behind all of the extra drama that you put into a story it's unnecessary there must be a preponderance of estrogen flowing through your creative process I could go on but I won't because I have no estrogen around me at the present thank God I've escaped it ciao for now

31. Well, at least you can see it, right?

32. Thanks for sharing – all animals need respect love and in some cases help. –

33. I don't like spiters

34. These spiders broke my paralyzing fear of spiders. They are misunderstood and are amazing critters. I have 60 tarantulas now. Many which I saved

35. I'm glad Andrea saved the spider. I like spiders, but I'm not sure I could do what she did. I pick them up in my house and put them outside. However, I have not come across one as big as this one. I probably won't either because I live in the United States and I don't know if we have them here. Good job Andrea and I'm sure if he could thank you he would.
    🕷❤

36. That was a great video, I'm glad that person rescued the spider.
