Ive seen various photos on the internet of people handling aggressive tarantulas. One guy with P.Regalis on his face,yes his face! A guy with S.Calceatum on his arm,likewise with P.Murinus,and one holding a huge T.Blondi in both hands. I watched the adventurer
Steve Backshall on the deadly 60 programme come across a wandering Blondi and he simply scooped it up (he didnt seem keen on handling it for long though ) Personally I think this is insane at best,but im puzzled as to how its possible? I understand that you can come down on top a Tarantula with your hand and "cup" it,but having it on your arm and or head/face?! I cant even touch my S.Calceatum with an inanimate object without it striking,and Im of the opinion that if I ignored my T.Blondi's hair flicking,hissing warning It could end badly for me. Is it the case that once the Tarantula realises that Its not coming to any harm,It calms down
Lol I have no intention of attempting it,Im just curious
