Arachnaphobes, keep scrolling. For those of you left, prepare to swallow a very scary (and admittedly, quite disgusting) truth. That truth is, that spiders could eat all 7.2 billion of us in just one year. If they really, really wanted to.



quote:

According to experts, if you add up the weight eaten by the world’s entire spider population in a single year, it is more than the combined weight of every human on the planet.



quote:

Nyffeler and Birkhofer discovered that spiders across the globe eat between 440.9 and 881.8 millions tons of prey in any given year. The total biomass of all adult humans on Earth is estimated to be 316.3 million tons. In other words, we wouldn’t even satiate the appetite of arachnids if they chose to organize and eat all people. Yep, they’d still be hungry come December 15th.


quote:

Fun Fact: all spiders on Earth weigh approximately 25 million tons. According to WTSP, that’s the equivalent of 478 Titanics.

If humans worked together we could kill all the spiders with fire in a day.

Not as long as I have a shoe and bug spray they fricking won’t. Eight legged, hairy bastards. Something that small shouldn’t be able to kill something as large as a human.

They'd have their fangs full in the south with all us obese 2nd amendment supporters.

I love science. But I have to wonder, how much tax payer money was shite away paying these “experts” to come up with this stupid, worthless study?

Bunch of wimps in this thread.....



Granted the crazy spider in Australia is legit but I don't have to go there.

Do any of you farm anymore?

Spiders eat the flies and other pest that prey on humans

Snakes eat the rodents that infect our grain supplies.

They are like our silent ninja watchdogs, just give them their space and let them do their job.




Just eat bacon ya commie soy boy vegans!






If you are going to kill them at least eat them so the protein does not go to waste
