If you would like more information/ videos of huntsman spider behavior i keep and breed them and can help you with any references you would want
Edit: now that ive looked a bit more at it i actually have the spider you based 
the model off of too, heteropoda venatoria, (the ones in my hands are holconia murrayensis, a calmer species from australia)
the one i was handling is the same as the one in the bottom picture is named J3z after an aussie youtuber because its australian, the heteropoda venatoria was unamed she was a mature female i bought wc and i was aware of how short their lives are at that stage in their life and didnt wanna get too attached
I understand the irational part of most peoples fear of spiders but huntsman in particular are so gentle to humans sure one that large actually would be scary but i have never ever been bitten and have been keeping dozens for 2 years now
eh its fine i expect em to be villianized its a bit of a shame but its expected. oh also the only real like innacuracy in behavior for em also is focusing on sound huntsman have speced primarily in eyesight and speed sure some vibration will trigger them but it is mostly eyesight they have very well developed eyes however that comes with downsides they tend to freeze at least briefly in intense light as they are nocturnal
I find this so fascinating. Unsurprisingly, I have a pretty awful fear of spiders, but I also love them. They're so cool and strange and interesting, and I've been working for years to grow out of my phobia by learning more about them and forcing myself to handle smaller, calmer species I find around the home. I would love to keep a huntsman if I could get past how much they freak me out.
Do you have any good video recommendations of them and their behaviors? I'm not the creator, but I'd love to learn more about them.
i havent found many good videos on these admittedly its been a lot of learning from somewhat spotty info on arachnoboards; if i was to recomend one to start with i would suggest holconia murrayensis which is what J3z the one im handling is, easy care and comparatively slow while still being docile enough to handle regularly just keep em somewhat hot and you wean them off of humidity as they get older they do require mist to drink as babies but eventually its all from food, species selection depends on location tho i am in the usa and holconia are fairly new and somewhat pricey rn
