The funnel might look cute, but do not stick any body parts in there!

GallowflakOh god, *fear, oh god.
siftbotInvocations (fear) cannot be called by Gallowflak because Gallowflak is not privileged - sorry.
zombieaterCool. Looks to be a Segestriid (http://bugguide.net/node/view/177267). They build tubular retreats in crevices and such. Not really a "funnel web spider", but okay.
PhreezdrydI'm not sure whether to be disturbed more by the spider, or your subtle intimation regarding the cuteness of the spider hole, and sticking your "body parts" in it.

Kofi says...This reminds me of that scene in Willy Wonka when the boat is going down the tunnel. How am I supposed to sleep now.
Tokoki says...Man, I hate spiders. I'd take a blowtorch to that thing!

Really? Looks like fucking kindling to me! DESTROY THE SPIDER MENACE!!!

MonkeySpank says...Where is Dag? He usually eats these damn things!
gharkI just completed a first aid training certificate and the trainer advised that these are the only spiders that we actually consider deadly (which was a bit surprising). The other spiders like the red back etc are not really known to kill people. So now you know - if you die from any spider other than a funnel web your doin' it wrong!
kymbosIn Soviet Russia, um, spider, fuckin... whatever... you!

Gah! No! This is not that taxon! Your trainer is thinking of the Australian funnel web spider (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_funnel-web_spider), not this one. There are many different types of funnel web spider (and this isn't even one!), most (99%) of which are harmless.
N00bs...

Good on you doing a first aid course - not enough people do it.
The red back is still deadly, it's just a very rare occurrence. The last death was way back before the anti-venene was developed. Even then it was not common to die from it (but it was a possibility).
The Sydney funnel web on the other hand is shit your pants deadly in regards to their venom but still account for half of all spider related deaths in Australia (the other half are red back spider deaths). So it's just as rare an occurrence.
I'd be much more worried about eastern brown snake bites - which are super mega shit your pants deadly. And they are much more common.

brycewi19Fffffffuuuu!

Are you sure it's a Sydney funnel web?
Sydney funnel webs are black (especially the legs), this spider is brown. I'm not saying you're wrong - I've only ever seen pictures. It just doesn't seem the same as pictures depict it.
maatchmmm. true. could be another type. anyone know for sure? >> ^harlequinn:
