"The world's deadliest spider forced a supermarket to close after a terrified worker spotted it under a box of bananas.

The highly-venomous Brazilian Wandering Spider - a species responsible for killing more people than any other arachnid - was eventually captured by RSPCA officers.

Victims usually die within an hour of being bitten by the spider, which has a 4in leg-span and is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the planet's most venomous animal.

It's scientific name is Phoneutria nigriventer - the first element is Greek for 'murderess' - but it is also known as the banana spider because of its habit of stowing away in shipments of the fruit."

stonefish? at number 5? fuck off, i don't think anyone in australia has been killed by that. most venomous fish it may be, but more venomous than a coastal taipain, funnelweb spider, mamba, cobra, sea snake?

I could swear that I read once about a species of conch that spears you if you step on it, and that spear contains a neurotoxin so powerful you're dead before you even feel the wound. But it seems like I'm imagining things.

you are thinking of cone snails, the rest is highly exaggerated, though you will die soon, but not instantanious

That's no Brazilian wandering spider, that's a brown recluse.

Because it's a hairy little eight-legged KILLING MACHINE and in England if you're over 40 you just love killing shit that's remotely threatening

I used to be so paranoid about stepping on those things when I lived in Australia. Saw a couple live ones too.

It looks more like a tailless whip scorpion, or amblypygid. An arachnid, yes, but not a spider.

I'm shocked that the source was the Daily Mail but there was no comments about the fact the spider should be hanged as a warning to all other youthful bad-behaved arachnids
