WILL IT BITE?! - Black Widow Challenge

I love his affection, calling a spider “sweetie”.

This makes me fear them less and gives me a safe place to admire them from..incredible even with arachnophobia..the are amazing creatures.

Me: sees a spider, burns the house down
Coyote: let’s it crawls on his hand

Thanks, Coyote! My 3 year old son and I love watching your videos. Tonight when we took the bath water out to recycle it in the garden, it was dark already and we were enjoying the stars, but by flashlight I noticed huge spiders on their webs in places I didn't know they were during the day time! We saw a black widow on its web, on the fence next to our orange tree... I was startled! Because my flashlight revealed a big shadow of a creepy spider! Then I saw that it was the black widow... And all I had ever heard was they're terrifying and horrible. I would have killed it but it was just so still on its web and we were admiring it (something I never used to do before my son, but he loves all creatures, including the hideous deep sea fish, like the stoplight loosejaw, and I have become very fascinated as well, enjoying learning about everything with him). I told him the black widow is not a good spider, that if we got bitten it would be dangerous. But I wondered what a black widow spider is really like, and he and I love to learn and go to the library and check out books on everything and also look on INclips. Your video was first and we love learning from you guys and this was amazing to see! I truly have learned so much in the last couple years, especially about animals, and I have been amazed that many animals that we perceive to be monsters are so much more precious and gentle and lovely than we could have imagined (such as sharks!). Take care, bless you guys 😊

It’s always very heartwarming to see something like this. The little lady was just having the time of her life walking around on his arms

doesn’t anyone else love how gentle and kind he is towards the animals?

He is a very brave man.
Getting bitten/stung by "Deadly & Dangerous" creatures and insects, proving that most of the creatures and insects want nothing to do with humans.

Coyote: Stay calm when there is a widow on you
Me: Screams like I’m getting murdered

Coyote: Hey! I am going to be free-handing the black widow!
Mario: Why?
Coyote: To show the viewers the spider isn’t out to bite them anywhere!
Coyote: And I will make sure it is female, too. It will be what we’re looking for.
Mario:
*ok*

Plot twist: Coyote wanted to meet Natasha Romanoff but got the real black widow

I'm watching this in bed in the dark . All of the sudden I feel spiders everywhere

On a serious note, take notice that he deliberately AVOIDED being bitten by this spider instead of outright hoping for a bite.
Should be telling of what he really believes about whether you should be afraid of this spider at all or not...

1:24 Imagine finding a camera under a rock and it doesn't interest you as much as a black widow.

Coyote: Now let me show you why this arachnid should be admired from a distance!
Also coyote: Imma hold it.

Props to ya for handling the most misunderstood spider that every kid fear.....
I kinda wanna handle other spiders now after seeing this.
I live in alberta Canada so no worries about poison, but fear of a bite just because of the uncomfortable feeling

cayote: never attempt this
me: wasn't planning to

Thank you for uploading these types of videos it has helped a lot with my fear of spiders

Everyone: I hope there’s no black widows around my house!
Coyote: I hope there are some black widows near the house

Ooohhh dude. You have some guts. I could NEVER in a million centuries be caught free handling a black widow spider

Coyote: “Be brave, stay wild!” Me: scared to even go to the woods

this is the only channel without clickbait

This just reminds me of a time I was going to water my plants with my garden hose and a black widow scared the crap out of me 😂

Not gonna lie, when the black widow rolled into a ball playing dead, it looked cute.

This is so cool! I overcame my fear of spiders.

This man is brave!

I am more nervous than he is lol

Got one of these littles guys or should I say gals chilling on my front porch, found her a couple days ago but decided to leave her due to the fact she had a nice sized scorpion in her web that she'd been feeding on.

Your lucky to live in such a beautiful place. I want to move to Arizona so bad...

Coyote: *breathes heavily*
Black Widow: I think I’ll add the couch over there. Eh. Room moved again. Let me think.

The fact that he calls the spider "sweetie" 😆😳

Coyote: **catches black widdow**
Me: **doesnt even dare to go near a daddy long legs**

I started to weep when she hid behind his thumb.

You cleared me of my arachnophobia THANK YOU

Welcome to Arizona, where we like these so we don't get bugs :D

I had a male Black Widow in my house a while back. I safely removed it from my basement and brought it out to my back yard. I felt bad for it for finding itself in my basement where food was actually pretty scarce. Males aren't nearly as dangerous to humans as females from what I've heard, but I still took precautions to make sure I didn't get bit. Luckily it all went smoothly. The spider went directly into the container I had and I opened the container outside and left it over night. I don't like killing things just because they exist. I would much rather remove it from my space and let live it's life peacefully in the wild.

I am terrified of spiders but... I think it is adorable how he calls her sweetie.❤️

While he is saying to admire it from a safe distance, I already freaked out and killed it.

This man needs some serious counseling , I would never! All those side effects if it bites - crazy times a
million

He still has that massive bee sting on his neck 🤣🤣🤣

Coyote Peterson: Black Widows are actually attracted to houses
Me: Well jokes on you, I live in an apartment.

Everybody else: "Let's do a slime challenge!" Coyote: "Let's see if this very venomous spider is gonna bite me!"

I live in San Diego where these spiders are everywhere and it's rare to hear about people being bit but it happens.

5:36 that was kinda cool how fast it got down with its web.

coyote: spiders are actually drawn to houses
Me: crying in the corner

He's about to gain spider senses,and super human strength 💪🏾

*falls into volcano*
Mark: you okay coyote?

I'm literally afraid of spiders but honestly she's beautiful ❤️

There is a park near my house with tons of black widows. They all nest together under a giant pile of rocks. I love going and taking pictures of them, I’ve even had a few crawl onto me. If you just let them find there way off there is no real worry. They really fascinate me with how calm and docile they are.

Thanks for teaching me something I go to Arizona every two years to see family and I did not know black widows we’re on houses

One year ago I went hiking in Bavaria and accidentally walked through a insanely strong spider web and directly looked up and saw a black widow climbing up her web

Coyote Peterson: Black Widows are actually attracted to houses
Me: Pack up we're moving to a not house

“Dont want to get bit” than proceeds to free handle the widow😩

I never thought the black widow wanted to bite me.
It’s the whole turning my nervous system into jelly that makes me fear them.
But good job you’re a ballsier man than me.

7:56 Imagine how funny it would be if the spider bit him at this moment

I’ve never seen someone so excited to find a black widow

I'm Coyote Peterson, and I'm about to fight off 25 Komodo Dragons with a loaf of bread and a bag of marshmellows.
Mark - "Lets do it"

Ur a champ my man ur the man u got the guts bro ur so brave i cant do that + im huge so ya nobody would do that im impressed

This is so helpful because I am so afraid of these spiders. I feel physically ill when I see them. I, now, live out in the woods and I have seen about 3 of these spiders. I regretfully have kid all 3 with poison, and I feel really bad about that. I know my fear of them is causing me to be cruel to them by taking their lives. I am afraid that they will get into my house and hurt my son, etc.
I am now actively trying to educate myself on insects because I want to reduce harming them as much as possible, and the only way to do it is educate myself. Thank you for this educational resource.

I’ve got several of these in my garage over the last 20 years. I just sent them back out into the flower bed. Luckily I have never been bitten by a black widow.. I have been bitten multiple times by wolf spiders

Can we talk about how the camera man is named Mario?!😂

Good advice. Black Widows are shy spiders that rarely bite. I have them all around the outside of my house in Arizona. I've walked into their webs and gently brushed them off my face, neck and arms without being bitten. Sometimes they rappel from my hand to the ground. They're active at night and hidden by day which is why Coyote has to hunt them for this video.
The only time I was bitten was when I stuck my bare foot inside a gardening shoe I keep out on the patio. A BW was sheltering inside. It hurt like hell and raised a welt on the top of my foot the diameter of a dime. It was sore for a couple weeks and took a month to heal completely but had no other effect. Her crushed body fell out the shoe.

5 years later:I'm coyote Petterson and I'm
about to free handle a funnel web spider

this is amazing. I thought these were deadly

Watching this lying in bed was a mistake. It feels like things are crawling on me. I think I need to change my sheets now lol.

These were all over my yard and never bothered or bitten. Seems like they are more nocturnal.

It's adorable how coyote treats animals like even when the snapping turtle bit him all he cared about was getting it back to its home like he's so sweet❤😊

Scariest spider I’ve ever seen is a harvest spider I’m lucky for that 😭

Ha.. this is how I play with the Huntsman spiders in my yard! Thankfully they are harmless! Anyways, It's lovely to see you being gentle with all kinds of animals Cayote! 🌻🌻🌻

Isn't it funny rewatching some of the older videos compared to recent videos?
Old: yeah I do not want to get bit by this so I'm going to gently handle it and then let it go.
Now: yeah I do not want to get bit by this but I'm gonna do it anyway, here we go!!!

When i was in kindergarten, we found a black widow under the merry-go-round. Of course, i had no idea what she was at that point, but like anyone who's seen one, the coloration is immediately striking. Seeing this beautiful creature, and hearing everyone's cries to squish it, i walked past them and picked it up (to all of their horror) then walked to the forest adjacent to our playground and released it. Obviously, this wasn't smart, picking up an unidentified creature i mean, but very luckily, in my case the unidentified crearure was a docile black widow and i was very calm.

Its not scary when u see a spider 🙄
*ITS SCARY WHEN IT DISAPPEARS*

Grew up in Arizona and came across a nest of baby black widows and from then on I had Arachnophobia,I never had arachnophobia before this encounter.

it's much bigger than I thought. do you know how it compares to the false widow in size?

I live in the Sonoran Desert, south of Phoenix, and we have so many Black Widows hanging out. Since the monsoons brought billions of bugs out, there are way more black widows.

One of the beautiful spiders I have ever seen

Lets just hope this challenge doesn't go viral

One time i put two spiders in a jar (with air if course) and i guess one of them was a female or it was just hungry so it ate the other 🤣

This gives me a respect for spiders, I just found one in my bathroom after this video and I just looked at it and said if u mind your business you live and homie ran away.

I used to run into these all the time in and around my house. I let them be, they let me be, it was a nice relationship

When I was a kid I slept in a cabin in the woods and on the last day my parents were taking the bedding off of the bed I slept on a found a huge black widow in it, funny thing was I remember feeling something crawling around my when I was sleeping the nights before but ignored it. The fact I went without ever getting bit still confuses me to this day.

This guy is secretly immortal and wants to die.

I have severe arachnophobia however Im very fascinated with these creatures even though I can’t even stand looking at them I love hearing the facts about their venom and things like their web patterns

I’m gonna go free handle a black widow now! Thanks, Coyote!

coyote: black widows are attracted to houses
(later): does not bite him
me sees a black widow: you can sleep with me

I wouldn’t have the nerve to just put the spider on my hand 🤣 im even scared of dead spiders!

I love how he says "don't try this at home" like we were all planning on it 😂

Coyote: see its not biting me
Black widow: I need to poop, can I go now

Coyote: I'm Coyote Peterson and I'm about to free handle the Black Widow.
Natasha: Hands off...

I live in Arizona, and I can confirm this is true.

I think I’ll stick to Scarlett Johansson Black Widow ✨💕🕷!!

Brave dude. Nearly lost my right arm to one of these as a kid.

I would’ve started that bonfire immediately

7:34-7:37 with the mix of Coyote’s voice, the ominous music and Coyote saying “don’t worry sweetie, we’ll put you back in the web, it sounded like a scene from a serial killer film

That was actually kinda cute when she stopped on your thumb

"You don't need to be afraid of black widows"
*Scary music plays throughout video*

i love black widows... so beautiful and delicate. she was so lovely! people need to remember that they are giants that literaly kill creatures whenever they feel like it, these black widows can easily be crushed by us.... they are nothing to fear... they just want to live like everything else

Bruh I was out side and I saw one crawling on me 😭 good thing I didn’t get bit 😀

love all da energy and trying new things

Me watching this episode after I find one outside... so scared.

coyote: "be brave, stay wild"
me, 14: *runs up the stairs after turning the light off*
