Now im terrified
I was planning on getting a tarantula to help me overcome my fear of them. I heard they are for the most part calm and gentle animals. Watching this scared the poop out of me and postponed me getting a tarantula for a while. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiZgdkurcGc

You don't have to handle T's. They're fragile so its easy for them to get hurt.

Well for starters I never recommend a G.rosea (Rose Hair) to anyone as a first T because of this reason. A ton of people say oh they are great for first T's and yaddah yaddah but a lot of people dont tell you the dark side of the rose hair.
If you want a great starter T look for something in the Brachypelma family.
Also if you are watching youtube videos of tarantulas I recommend only watching Jon3800's tarantula videos

Its the fact that im scared of them to begin with. If one of my snakes bit me it wouldnt freak me out. I would just evaluate the situation and figure out why it happened. If a tarantula bit me i would need years of therapy.
