Dude Sits Next To Fire Escape, Waking Spidery Nightmare Ensues


When it comes to the worst things that could happen to someone who decides to sit on/near a fire escape, this spidery scenario basically ranks right up there with almost falling off a dang fire escape. We can only imagine how much adrenaline was coursing through this poor person's body when they got the surprise of a lifetime.

After ten minutes the log was burning perfectly, we were getting chilly, and there literally wasn't a spider in sight. We shook off our seats, checked ev
