In nature, size is often the difference between eating dinner and being dinner. Its not an absolute guarantee (see Ants and the absolute wrecking ball they bring to the party when they're present in numbers), but 90% of the time, size makes the difference in one if these throw downs.

He has his entire arm or a good chunk of it amputated because of the venom Normally the Brazilian wandering spider doesn't really bite as it will give a warning bite but the one that my friend got from me who I got from. Another friend I know long drawn out dialogue bear with me Basically told me this is a very crabby personality spider it will want to Bite you 24/7 My other friend has had Brazilian wandering spiders before As do I but I as well as my other friend who have more experience than this current friend. I have understand how deadly their venom is. We don't handle them even when they're spiderlings when there are babies we don't even handle them it's just that risky Is long story short than necrosis from the venom destroyed his Entire arm in less than fifteen minutes and he paid the price by damn near losing his life

@@denzelturbosteel1335 Well, a tarantula or any spider never faces favorable odds against a hawk wasp. I’m not sure what you mean by a water beetle. Perhaps you mean the giant water bug/toe biter. That would be interesting. Both the water bug and strider have those probing mouth parts and toxic digestive enzymes. Haven’t heard of a brown jumping spider. I like the Solufugid vs.the vinegaroon concept. That would be interesting as well. I would say the Orchid mantis would destroy the crab spider. A few I had in mind were the six eyed sand spider vs. the death stalker scorpion. Florida Brown Huntsman vs. Okefenoke fishing spider. Sydney Funnel Web vs. Mouse spider.
