While sipping on his morning coffee, Sydney, Australia, resident Dan Smith caught sight of an enormous spider flailing around in his pool.

When Smith first saw the creature, he assumed it was just another trapdoor spider, a typically harmless species. Only after he scooped it up in a jar did he realize what he had found: a funnel-web spider.
