Hey! Its been 5 years since you posted this but this is the first time I've come across this video! I have a question, and I hope you still monitor these kind of things. I read in a book that a type of daddy longleg's feet never stop growing, so they have to bite them off to keep it under control. The web search does nothing for me because it can't understand my question, but since you guys are smart, I'm asking you!

I just wanna say, I know english is notoriously bad at naming things, but seriously here you've hit the jackpot. This name is so ridiculous and uselessly overcomplicated.
In France the common name for them is faucheux, which translates to reapers. Not only is it way more badass, it's simpler and can't be as easily mistakenly used to describe every single long legged spider there is.

You know, usually things capable of autotomy can also regrow lost limbs. Lizards do it with their tails, crabs and lobsters do it with their claws, starfish do it with their. well everything. But I never thought a creature could so nonchalantly lose something they'll never recover. I was under the assumption that longlegs grew their legs back.

Let's make one thing clear. The spider didn't lose its leg and They didn't pull the leg. (pfff) They Forced him to cut it off. I'm not in animal safety protecting thingy organization but in this case I support their zealot members. Reported this video for animal abuse by the way.

Daddy longlegs are not spiders
That's only partially accurate. Daddy longlegs ca refer to either the cellar spider, which IS a spider, or the harvestman, which is the mite shown here. Some have also incorrectly used it to refer to the mosquito hawk, which isn't even an arachnid.

Still no info regarding the two different Daddy Long Legs. The short mentioned that there are two different creatures, one west coast and one easy coast, called Daddy Long Legs. So whats the differences between them and why are they both labeled the same?

127 hours, he would have dreamed for this kind of feature, instead of that it took him a long and painful hour to self amputate his arm by breaking his bones and cutting skin and tendons with a shallow multi usage knife: x

The cellar spider is also called Daddy Long Legs and they're spiders.
You also have the flying daddy long legs which is a fly with long legs
Then you have the harvestman that is called daddy long legs.

Daddy Longlegs scientist on another planet where they're the dominant species: and you can see, if we rip off the human's leg it just learns to hop, and in time constructs a new leg for itself out of wood.

I thought they were spiders too oh
I'm still wandering why they lose their limbs even though they can't regenerate them because in nature it is best to lose body parts if you can regenerate them

I am scared to death of daddy longlegs, though not of most other arachnids. I'm gradually exposing myself to videos and images of them and this video was super fascinating and helpful

They don't use the front 2 legs for walking.
They only walk on 6 legs
Cut to them removing the front leg and he stumbles all over the place and face plants.

Daddy long legs are actually an arachnid cell spider that is poisonous but, it's fangs are to small to bite you.
