This time-lapse video of a molting tarantula is creepy in the most fascinating way

Wow! What a way to watch a molting tarantula. This time-lapse video of a pet Mexican red-knee tarantula shedding its exoskeleton takes just 40 seconds, rather than 3 hours of real time, and it's fascinating to say the least. Although just posted on YouTube, the video is actually from 2017, when National Geographic said:

This tarantula is a juvenile, according to its owner Jason Bauer, who shot the video footage.
