This is what faced 74-year-old Russell Harding when he stepped outside his front door last Thursday.
According to the SWNS news agency, a spider an inch-and-a-half in size had somehow managed to spin a six-foot web stretching from the wing mirror on Harding's car to his shed.
LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT THING!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE.
Harding, from Colerne, Wiltshire, is quoted by the Daily Mail as saying:
I don't understand how the spider did it, it was incredible. I'm just mystified.
My wife would have actually passed out if she had walked into the web. There would have been a lot of screaming.
Fortunately it had been a very dewy morning which highlighted the web so I saw it before I walked into it.
Harding said he had to detach the web from his car to allow his family to leave the house.
HE ACTUALLY TOUCHED AND MOVED THE WEB?!?!
NOOOOOOOOOPE.
NOOOOOOOOOPE.
NOOOOOOOOOPE.
The Mail reports the web eventually disappeared three days later.
But none of us will ever be able to unsee the horror that was the six-foot spider's web of Colerne, Wiltshire.
There has been some debate over whether the top picture is real, but as the Telegraph points out, it is something of an optical illusion.
As the story states, the 6ft web stretches from Harding's car, out of shot, to his shed, also out of shot. The picture has been taken from a distance away to give the illusion of stretching across the huge garage, when it fact it covers a much smaller area. That is also why the spider looks larger than its actual size of an inch-and-a-half.
