No Youtube video, but kinda "on topic."
I had my tea on the back deck this afternoon. I keep a plastic table next to the chair to put the mug on. The edge of table is about 6 inches from the chair.
I noticed a small spider, maybe 3/8 of an inch long, pacing along the edge of the table. Finally, he jumped. He almost made it -- maybe half an inch short. He'd let out some silk, so he didn't fall to the deck. He hauled himself up the silk line, began pacing again, and jumped again -- falling just short again.
He tried three of four more times before I went back inside.
I do wish I had a video of it.
