If you want to see a spider worthy of the name try this one:

You don’t get any idea of its size from the picture but I can assure that it could straddle your hand. Called a Baboon Spider it is not poisonous to humans, well not really. But the bite can be quite painful. I came across these critters in Capetown where they also had king sized cockroaches. How about a cockroach some 4 inches long and tough enough so that you could stand on one and not kill it.
