Robert Irwin got a fright on Wednesday when he went to put on his shoes – and discovered a huge huntsman spider lurking inside.
The startling incident was captured during the conservationist’s TikTok video of his morning dressing routine.
‘All right, time to put my shoe on,’ Robert told his fans.
The camera then panned over to his left sneaker, revealing a large spider inside it.
As the camera light panned over the arachnid, it quickly retreated further into the shoe.
‘Maybe not,’ Robert added, before bursting into laughter.
Fortunately, despite its scary appearance, the huntsman spider is harmless to humans.
Many of Robert’s American fans were whipped into a frenzy over the skin-crawling footage and were quick to comment their thoughts.
