    I feel that this thread needs a revival...



    For the record, if I saw this coming at me I'd nope the fuck out of there and try to scream with my mouth closed.

    The Moroccan flic-flac spider is nocturnal and is known to feed on moths before sunrise.[5] It spends the hot desert days in its cool burrow in the sand protected from the sun and predators. The spider creates its dwelling with its pedipalps (feelers) and bristles, forming long, vertical tubes out of sand and silk.[5][1][3] Using a series of rapid, acrobatic flic-flac movements of its legs similar to those used by gymnasts, the spider is able to actively propel itself off the ground, allowing it to move both down and uphill, even at a 40 percent incline.[5] This behavior is different than other huntsman spiders, such asCarparachne aureoflava from the Namib Desert, which uses passive cartwheeling as a form of locomotion.[3] The flic-flac spider can reach speeds of up to 2 m/s using forward or back flips to evade threats.[1][2]



    EDIT: For something as tiny as that thing is, that's fucking fast. Apparently the biggest one's bodies are only 19mm long or so.

    I hate spiders. Yet, I still clicked on this thread and spent the past 10 minutes browsing it, just in case the thread title was a lie. My body now itches everywhere.
