Horrifying gigantic 5-foot spiders seen in Congo

• Terrence Aym
Spiders might exist that have crawled out of nightmares. They're called the "J'ba FoFi" (giant spider, pronounced ch-bah foo fee) in Central Africa. While many people might define a giant spider as one that's bigger than their hand...or perhaps envision the horrifying Goliath 'bird eating spider' that dwells in the darker corners of the ancient Amazon, those people aren't thinking big enough: the size of the Congolese Giant spider--when its legs are included--is said to be up to five feet across.
