Hilarious! But I have to relate a tale told me by my Aussie brother-in-law, probably apocryphal...
Caught short one day in Central Queensland, Gerassimoff had to use a bush dunny: having brushed the spider's webs away from the entry, he dropped his pants and sat down with a sigh of relief. Seconds later, he shot out the front of the dunny (no doors in these!), clasping his hand to his backside. Medical examination showed he'd been bitten by a red-back spider (known elsewhere as a black widow): all was well, as Gerassimoff survived the bite; however, later, it was found the spider had died of alcoholic poisoning. Ka-boom!
