Venom of deadliest spider could cure erectile dysfunction
Venom from world's deadliest spider could cure erectile dysfunction within 20 minutes
It sounds like a most unlikely aphrodisiac. But scientists have discovered the venom from what's considered the world's deadliest spider could be the secret to bolstering a man's love life.

Toxins produced by the Brazilian Wandering Spider, or Phoneutria nigriventer, appear to combat erectile dysfunction within 20 minutes of entering the body.

Tests carried out on rats show the venom boosts performance by increasing the release of nitric oxide, a chemical that dilates blood vessels and improves blood flow. This is similar to how existing impotence drugs work.
The Brazilian Wandering Spider is responsible for killing more people than any other arachnid. Victims usually die within an hour of being bitten.
It is also known as the banana spider because of its habit of stowing away in shipments of the fruit.

    Oh great, Dead in sixty minutes but with a world class *.
    I think I would opt for "limp but alive" [:D][:D][:D]

    I wonder how they stumbled across this? Did they find all the men bitten by this spider die but had a *? Makes me wonder if they duct taped the * down for the open casket [:D]. Other wise the * would impede the lid from closing.

    Also with their one hour time limit and the 20 minute wait (wait a tick is that 20 minute included in the hour or you only have 40 minutes get busy?).

    I think the real cure for erectile disfunction is a divorce and a 20 year old girlfriend.... ;)

    Let's say you were dumb enough to "do it yourself" and allowed the spider to bite you on your tender parts. Can you imagine what it would be like if your kin had to explain how you died - And what they might put on your tombstone?

    i would think it would take steely nerves to watch spidey climb mt.olympus and then file a nice point on his zinger..and watch it beat his chest (with at least two legs) before the coup de grace

    Doesn't have to bite "your tender parts". This rather odd side effect of the spider bite was featured on "1000 Ways to Die" that I watched some time back.
