A viral TikTok showed Australian actor Stephen Walker catching a large Huntsman spider with his bare hands and it left viewers horrified.

As he enters the room, McKenzie spots a "massive" huntsman spider on the wall at the head of the bed. "It's one of the biggest ones we've ever seen," he can be heard saying in a video of the catch.

The huntsman spider is a celebrated hunter in its own right, gaining international fame for its ability to carry a kill as large a full-grown mouse up a wall.

Photos of a giant huntsman spider that was rescued in Queensland, Australia, last year are going viral — and people can’t believe their eyes.

The person who posted the video said the arachnid was a huntsman spider, which is one of the largest varieties in the world and they're also very quick - as demonstrated in this creepy clip.
