    This spider was found in the amazon rain forest by a group of people who you will see in the video. One of them just happens to be the popular youtuber destin from "smarter every day" the spider weaves its web the builds a larger spider out of debrie that is to make it look like a bigger spider. I found this very interesting and am waiting to hear more about this.

    'Dat's a pretty cool spider. If it's real then, wow, a spider creating a bigger spider is pretty unique. I can't think of anything that builds a larger version of itself to intimidate. Eh, cool stuffs.

    Wow, this is amazing! I find it hard to believe this is not real. I wouldn't even care if it is fake, it's some awesome stuff.

    makes you think about the point when survival instincts evolve into cognitive reasoning and abstract thought...

    I'm not able to find the video. However there is a spider that uses its web as a bungee cord and grabbing Device. It basically pounces on the prey below it and snares the prey and noun ss back up.
