A South African man Jérémy Schalkwijk was getting ready to impress his new girlfriend Athina Yalias with his pet goldfish Cleo when a giant spider snatched the fish out of its pond and carried it away. He was shocked.
The fish was in his pond in Barberton, South Africa. The spider lowered itself into the pond and used its fangs and front legs to carry the fish away. Amazingly, Schalkwijk took photos of the incredible event. "It was a crazy, crazy sight. You don't see that every day," Schalkwijk said. "I couldn't believe that a spider would be able to carry something twice its weight like that."
Schalkwijk added, "I've never seen something like that before. I knew the spiders could fish, but they were never such a large size. You see it sometimes with small fish like fingerlings, but never with a goldfish. This was twice the weight of the spider." After showing the photos to Athina, whom was so impressed, Schalkwijk returned with her to see what the spider would do next. Unsurprisingly, neither the spider nor Cleo were anywhere to be found.
