Spiders are notoriously feared. With their long, spindly legs and many beady eyes, they aren't exactly the most popular animals in the world.

According to the American Psychiatric Association, per the Independent, one in ten Americans have a phobia and 40% of those affected have a fear relating to bugs.

Now, one Instagram user has shared almost every arachnophobe's worst nightmare after finding a giant Huntsman spider lurking in his headphones.

Olly Hurst captioned the video: "Spider time" alongside the hashtags "#australiaspiders #huntsmanspider #suprisesuprise".

Watch the video below: 

Needless to say, the comments section of the video was filled with shocked remarks.

When the video was shared by ABC Darwin on Facebook, one commenter revealed that she too had a similar experience, writing: "I did a little girly squeal when I picked up my watering can yesterday and a huntsman [sic] ran across the front of the handle."

She explained that she is typically not frightened of the spiders, but if she found one in her headphones, she would be particularly freaked out.

However, a second commenter said that the discovery wasn't "so bad" as Huntsman spiders are "docile."

They wrote: "Thats [sic] not so bad they are fairly docile. I picked up a stack of pots one day and felt something run up my leg but couldn't see it. When I put the stack of pots down, it ran down my leg out of my shorts and back to its relocated home."

This man is right not to be frightened of the spiders, as despite their fearsome name, they are actually considered to be relatively harmless creatures.

As per the Australian Museum: "Despite their often large and hairy appearance, Huntsman spiders are not considered to be dangerous spiders. As with most spiders, they do possess venom, and a bite may cause some ill effects. However, they are quite reluctant to bite, and will usually try to run away rather than be aggressive."
