Amazing.
CNN will come out with a story: “Remember a few months ago when all the single ladies learned not to drive while filming their kids with an iPhone? Well Carlos Whitaker, is back with another great lesson on how to kill spiders! We just hope for his sake PETA doesn’t run him into the ground.:
Well done dad!
Seriously epic video, great music choices.
Next video should be of Losiah killing one.
ha ha ha, shaeeeme poor spider.
Well, I kill anything that size and even smaller if it looks like a Button Spider. In a choice between a spider(that I have doubts about) and my children the spider will always loose.
A friend has had to kill Rain Spiders in the house – messy.
My husband used to. Until the time he squashed one on the wall and the grease from its guts made a stain that was still there the day we moved out! I now just get a paper towel and put them outside.
I kill the bugs, my wife points them out. I don’t know if I can do you one better, but we had a spider experience recently. There was this fat spider in the den one night crawling along the wall. My wife freaked, so being the brave titan that I am I grabbed a shoe to slay the monster once and for all. I deal the beast a glancing blow. Upon impact dozens and dozens of tiny baby spiders spew out of the arachnid’s fatal wound. I knew fear that day. Adrenalin in my veins and tunnel vision narrowing my eyesight I ran to the next room, returning with bug spray, and finished off the hoard. I called an exterminator the next day. No more spiders.
We get those hairy millipedes (or centipedes, I don’t take time to count) in our house. They freak me out, but I still stomp on them. And there are usually a couple of legs that get separated from the body and the cleanup just does me in. Legs! All those legs!
Oh I hate those things–they’re fast! A good dose of Lysol spray will stall their nervous system so you can get a good squish. Yeah, the legs. Bleeeeah!
My most recent experience though was while we were at Love A Child orphanage in Haiti. We were setting up tents for our medical team to sleep in during our trip to Camp Hope. We were grabbing cinder blocks to help “stake down” the tents. All of a sudden when we went to grab one last block a tarantula the size of my hand decided to make itself known. I may have peed my pants a little … needless to say we didn’t need any more blocks at that point.
And the kids in Camp Hope had a wonderful game they played with smaller spiders. They fill small water bottles and pour it holes in the ground and the fisrt one to squish the spider won that round. It was great to watch.
I’m the spider killer usually in my house, though my wife will do it on occasion. I’m not a big fan of the 8 legged crawlers though.
BTW, I have that same Black & Decker toy hammer at my house too. Maybe you should have used that to beat the spider down, although that would have required a closer proximity to it. You could have been like Thor though.
My mom used to kill them in our house. My dad was always to “busy” which we knew meant “scared” to do it. My son and I are allergic to mosquitos so if the spiders aren’t causin any ruckus, we let them be. If their up in our piece, I come get ‘em with a bottle of hair spray and a papertowel! Watchout!
i do. i kill spiders at everyone’s houses.
Just wait ’til PETA gets a hold of this!
Way to go, Dad!
Yup, I’m the official spider killer in our house too. One of the many “dad duties” that befall us fathers.
Btw, I. HATE. SPIDERS.
Amazing.

The background music is awesome! I need a choir to fill my life with music once I smash a spider. I’d be so much more inclined to do so!
I kill spiders when I have to, but I’d much rather call a boy to do it.
ps that spider was huge!
HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
I am NOT the spider killer in my house…heck no!
I’ve read posts from you and Heather about the bugs down south, but holy moly that spider is huge!
That was wonderful in so many ways. Totally brightened my day!
Holy crap, that’s a big friggin’ spider!
Oh my dang. Seriously. Where do you people live?!? Isn’t this like two ginormous spiders in like a few weeks?
grodie.
If I wanted spiders that size, i’d move to Africa.
yooookie!!!!

It’s me….my wife is mortified of any insect.
I told her the other month that a cricket in our master bath was the “elusive, Southwestern bath shrimp.” She totally bought it for about an hour.
Awesome video.
That video gave me chills dude. I kill the spiders but I usually throw heavy things at it to kill it, haha.
Hah! My husband definitely does the spider killing around here. I hate spiders!

Where are you? Cause I don’t want to be anywhere near there…
Pete and Brandi’s basement.
Love the “Losiah, when you grow up, you’re in charge of spiders”
“No spiders were killed in the making of this video”
…right?
crushed
Thankfully my sister lives next door so I always call her to come take care of arachnid killings.
Sweet moves man. I bet you’re crazy good with a bow staff. So graceful.
I’m usually the spider killer around our place.

Well, we practice SRP…the Spider Relocation Program, due to watching Charlotte’s Web when my kids were young.
yea. no. Not us.
My kids just scream “kill it mom, kill it!” And so I do.
hahahahaha! Love this! We take turns in our house, but I can’t kill a spider without screaming, so my video would look much the same…
Oh that was a ridiculous spider!!! BLEH!
I’m an awesome spider killer…any spray household cleaning product and/or hairspray and flip flops are required.

….. and me! You’re just smarter about the ones I can’t reach.
hahaha! Too funny! My husband does the spider/bug killing at home too. I’m glad I don’t have to do it.

Nice soundtrack. Only a true geek would take the time to put an appropriate soundtrack behind the killing of a spider.
ME LIKEY!!!!!!!
