In this video, a toddler and his dad were hanging around in the bathroom preparing for bed. While the boy was standing in the bathtub, an unexpected guest decided to join in on the fun. Watch in terror as he seamlessly makes friends with this creepy-crawly intruder.

On Sept. 16, 2019, Wade Astbury, a three-year-old boy from Rotherham, South Yorkshire, England, was finishing up his nighttime routine with his father, Dave. As Wade playfully hopped into the bathtub, his father had noticed something large plop down on his son's right shoulder.

The little boy soon takes notice and giggles as the eight-legged creature curiously crawls around his arms and legs.

"Aww, he likes me," said the unfazed boy as the spider creeps down to his hand and back up his arm. Suddenly, the large spider is out of sight and Wade's father quickly tells him to turn around.

Try not to cringe as the spindly-legged spider makes its way all over the kid's back. They say most spiders are shy and retiring, but this humongous spider surprisingly appeared to be just as brave as the little boy.

If you were wondering if this spider was deadly, then fear not. It was just a large domestic house spider that's commonly found in many European countries. The spider doesn't produce enough venom to be considered deadly; however, its bite is still pretty painful and it could have left this toddler in tears if it had felt the slightest bit threatened.
