#1 One internet user recently discovered a strange, dark, and web-laden tunnel into the earth in his backyard.
He posted a photo of the hole, which was about an inch across, and said that if he got enough votes, he would stick his finger inside to see what it was. Well knowing the internet, you can probably guess what people waned this guy to do to that hole...
#2 Of Course He Got Lots Of Votes To POKE It!
Obviously everyone wanted to see this dumbass do something dumb. So he got enough votes to stick his finger in that hole. So he went on as promised, but not before he had a swig of whiskey to get the courage up.

#4 As Soon As His Finger Reached The Rim Of The Hole... POW! Out jumped a Giant Funnel Spider!
Now, a burrow like that likely belongs to a funnel spider, and they're just as creepy as they sound. Not all funnel spiders are poisonous but the ones that are can be deadly. They line their holes with webbing to trap anything that might be dumb enough to come near it.
#3 These spiders are among the most deadly in the world and the chemicals they produce can cause a whole lot of pain if bitten.
The ones that are poisonous rate among the deadliest spiders on Earth. Their powerful venom contains a chemical called Robustoxin, which can cause extreme pain and eventually circulatory failure.

#5 These huge spiders have huge fangs and love to burrow deep into things and just wait it out.
The spiders have very large fangs to inflict a great deal of bodily harm should you find yourself in their holes. They dig burrows in the ground or in dark crevices and line them with webbing to trap unsuspecting prey, which they then finish off with their large fangs. They have been known to make home sin cracks in walls, eaves, floor boards, rock formations, and yes, the dirt.

#6 You never know whats going to be in that hole you stick your finger in... Don't be a dumbass.
Luckily for the dumbass who put his finger in this hole, he got out unharmed. But not everyone is so lucky so don't go fingering holes you aren't familiar with.
