As I said though, this dosent do that, mosqitos kill indescriminantly. Spiders do too, though you may have a point with them, it's usually the stupid who try and piss them off who get attacked, I've had a redback crawl down my arm and sat in a chair with a web oof them underneath, most spiders wont attack unless provoked apart from the Sydney Funnelweb which is a bastard which will go for anyone.;)

Darwinism = ftw.

they have poison???arggghhhhhhh but those r the only ones im not afraid of..hahahaha

They're actually Crane flies... but there is some room for confusion as different countries call different things Daddy Long Legs.

Yep :)
What americans call daddy long legs are spiders.

And the thing about them being the deadliest spider in the world is bollocks, they are among the least toxic.

that vid WAS funny :thumbup
but is the venom part true?

Venom
There is an urban legend stating that the daddy long-legs spider has the most potent venom of any spider, and this same legend is attributed to crane flies where they commonly go by the name "daddy-long legs" (principally in the United Kingdom).

However, both the daddy long-legs spider and the crane fly are in fact innocuous; the spider's venom is practically harmless to humans, and the crane fly is not venomous. The commonly confused harvestman, also known as daddy long-legs but which isn't a spider, is also not venomous.
