Thread: Spiders On Drugs

Now I'm sure everyone has seen this video

Which is, f'in hilarious lol

In my research I have found out that this study actually took place, multiple times.
That video, I'm assuming, is half of the real video of Peter Witt's research and half fake.

Check these links out.

One thing I find very interesting is this finding.

All the drugs tested reduced web regularity except for small doses (0.1-0.3 µg) of LSD, which resulted in more ordered webs.

This would mean that LSD probably increases the spider's ability to think about the big picture. It doesn't get caught up in one section and forget to build the other parts properly.
