I once read that the most venomus spider is in fact the Daddy Longlegs but it's jaws are so small it can't bit a human.

Some substances that would be lethal in your blood stream aren't able to get into the blood if ingested.

I think it has that reputation because it can kill the Sydney funnel-web, the most lethal spider on the planet. I don't think anyone has ever actually extracted Daddy Longlegs venom and tested this though. Having said that I also read that some mammels (such as dogs) are immune from Sydney funnel-web venom, or at least don't suffer as much as humans do, so the same could be true of the Daddy Longlegs.

Daddy Longlegs!!! I'd love an explanation of where and how that got that nickname.
