Creepy crawly

Pope Benedict XVI has had a little more interest than he realised while delivering a speech in the Czech Republic.

The Pontiff was speaking at the medieval Prague Castle's ornate Spanish Hall at the end of a concert perfomance.

While he was addressing politicians and diplomats, a spider appeared on his white robes.

It disappeared from view for a moment, but then could be seen crawling up the right side of the 82-year-old Pontiff's face, then reaching his ear.

The spider then reappeared on the Pope's left shoulder and scampered down his robe.

It disappeared and Benedict XVI carried on. He is on a three-day pilgrimage to the Czech Republic and urged the heavily secular nation to rediscover its Christian roots.

Your adrenaline's rushing. You feel panic setting in. You're in danger. You must keep it together. The best way to survive a dangerous situation is to stay calm... The Pope did it well... He didn't freak out at all. I would've gone mad and started killing the little animal with the nearest object I could find. Didn't matter if I was being filmed and broadcasted live on TV.

Dare not imagine how things would've been like had it been a bigger spider...



The YouTube video above received rave reviews worldwide.
