I am normally not spooked with spiders, but this one encountered me in all the wrong place, sitting on the loo i noticed something touching my buttocks and I jumped up to see and started him and he jump towards me giving me a nearly stroke, lucky i did not soil the floor...just damn creepy for me, i spooked him out the window, but seem him back often and becoming a pain in my neck.

It's a Heteropoda venatoria huntsman spider.
They live on building walls, that's what they do so it is very hard for you to chase them back to the wild. They benefit from getting insects that are attracted to the house lights at night.
sorry my camera was not working well, maybe spooked as well...lol
