Aside from causing intense pain, the venom of the spider can also cause priapism - uncomfortable erections that can last for many hours and lead to impotence. A component of the venom (Tx2-6) may eventually be used in erectile dysfunction treatments.

Dang, that would suck.
I remember listening to a documentary on radio 4 a few years back. They were interviewing a team of people who went in to the Amazon to find a spider that had been seen hauling away live chickens from farms. Imagine having one of those fuckers in the corner of your room at night!

Like how amazing are they supposed to be live? I have listened to all their albums and they didn't really grab me. But there are just those bands that you have to see live. Like if I wasn't a fan of GWAR I would still know I need to see their show.
Amazing of course. Set List..... well I can't remember the whole lot but a few tracks they played were, in no paticular order... Dead Winter Days, In The Shadow of Our Pale Companion, Not Unlike The Waves, Bloodbirds, As Embers Dressed The Sky, I Am The Wooden Doors.
