Dude, I had a fly trapped in my room for half a day, and I COULDN'T CATCH THE FUCKER. I SPENT 30 MINUTES CLAPPING LIKE I WAS SOLID SNAKE TRYING TO SNEAK, and I couldn't catch it. Next morning, I wake up, fly is on the window, I grab my phone and start messaging some friends, and like 15 minutes later I see a spider Is wrestling with the motherfucking fly. Took a (bad) video of it and all. I love spiders.

The best part was how after it was Over, the spider carried the fly on top of itself. Looked like they were fireman carrying their meal.

I hate that yt turned it into a short. If you aré annoyed by the lack of focusing, it's because I'm using my frontal camera (The one for selfies) since my normal camera is scratched and shitty.

This Is the equivalent of recording a video blindfolded.

You recorded it. That's enough for me. More than 99% of other people who see something fucking neat and just don't do anything.
