I, for one, hope that 4-5 foot jump is urban mythology... perhaps sticking my cell phone in for an up close and personal spidey selfie wasn't such a good idea. My arms are a little short of 4-5 foot.:S
...then again... I only have to have response time faster then my bride ! :B
p.s. nope....not going to try the nekkid with a tarantula maneuver if I can help it. Have to take your word on that one.. :h

I am serious. They really can jump. Our kids (grown) came over for dinner one night last fall and showed us a picture they had taken with their phone of our front door. There was a tarantula about 4 inches across walking up the door. We opened and closed the door carefully and didn't disturb it. I would much rather have tarantulas in the yard than bugs and they are great bug catchers. I can skip the rattlesnakes and scorpions however.
