As I'm sitting here catching up on POTN, an extremely small spider— less than a millimeter in size, legs and all—comes dropping down from the ceiling towards my desk, passing in from of my monitor. The ceiling is 5 feet above my desktop, and he was dropping on a thread, making it as he goes.

How the hell can a spider that small make a thread that long?!!! Utterly amazing!
