He’s Known For His Crazy Wildlife Stunts But This One Might Just Be The Scariest Yet

Coyote Peterson from Brave Wilderness has made a name for himself by constantly getting in harm’s way in interactions with dangerous animals.

It comes as no surprise to those who are familiar with Peterson that in his latest wildlife video, he attempts to handle a venomous creature without being bitten. However, that doesn’t make it any less terrifying to watch, especially for those who have arachnophobia.

In the area surrounding his house, Peterson searched for a black widow and found one underneath a rock. He wanted to test whether she would bite him when held.
