Effects Of Drugs And Alcohol On Spider Webs
written by John Chow on January 2nd, 2007
In the 1960s, Dr. Peter Witt gave spiders various kinds of drugs and alcohol to observe the effects on their webs. The results, shown in this Environment Canada Wildlife Service video, were pretty interesting.

hahaha I just saw this on my forums 5 minutes ago. I’m the caffeine spider
haha, im literally rolling off my chair, like a retard I naturally thought it was legit at first.
One of the funnier videos I’ve seen in a while.
Thanks for posting.
LOL, that’s good. I got black widows all around my house. I’m going to give them some weed tomorrow.
hahaha, thats gold
Haha, that got me going for the first little while, until I saw the weed spider build a hammock.
What this is fake?
That’s a great advert
Ha ha brilliant! Never seen this before.
“Building webs was for suckas..” ha ha!
hmm.. i am hearing the sound.. but not seeing the movie???
Seen the pictures before but never saw the actual video. Nice find John
Good stuff John…
How do you find these things?
Pretty nice advert, didn’t see it before (even though I check Break.com often)
HMTKSteve, notice the ‘Break.com’ in the right lower corner? They post plenty of movies everyday, and sometimes there are nice ones out there
Interesting one !
break.com is great yes, first they were big-boys.com, still redirects by the way..
great source
Leftblank,
My work PC is blocking the content…
I saw the video this morning while at home but… How does one find the time to search these video sites to find the good stuff?
Haha…whoa, now that’s a crazy spider. Alcohol is evil!!!
Ahaha that’s great, the weed spider became the Crack spiders bitch!
Crazy hamock though, I’d take one of those.
HMTKSteve think of Break as a blog. Every day they post about 4-6 videos. You just check on a regular basis. Some are funny some are not.
First time for me too. I can’t believe it.
hahah, this is hilarious…first time I’ve seen it too.
Welcome to Spiders Anonymous
That is crazy! Great posting John! Thank you
HMTKSteve, Break is user contributed, they’ve got a page you can submit/send your movies, they even give out rewards every now and then, so well, there you’ve got the time
Environment Canada.. Are they making movies?
Saw that on Digg – Great Clip
…what the hell?
Clearly spiders have no alcohol tollerance.
This is like druging children and telling them to finger-paint… but spiders have no legal rights
Here I was ready for some scientific experiments.
And BAM! blindsided!
very funny!
Cool video!
what wordpress plugin do you use for videos
thanks
I don’t use any plugin. Just the supplied embed codes.
that video is antidrug propaganda created specifically as a viral by the Church of Christ.
read the credits sometime, public-schoolers.
at first, i was mad that they tricked me, I wanted to see the real effects, but in the end I think that this clip was far more funny than whatever the real one would show.
One quote…”The Crack Spider’s Bi%&h.” I wasn’t expecting that one!
Fake but nice
Laughed my assoff… Sent it to a friend who is the THC spider. Hope he gets the message..
