I'm still salty that I once lost a game of trivia because I said this myth was false, and the "official" answer said it was true.
It was intended to be an example of a ridiculous "false fact" that went on to become widely believed.

Also, I can barely eat 6 spiders in one sitting.

6 orders of spiders, maybe.
We've all made the embarrassing mistake of ordering 6 orders of spiders, thinking it was 6 individual spiders, and succumbing to a ego belly encumbered with as many as 36 spiders for sake of seeming ignorant of how spider restaurants work. And since it's usually a mistake made on nascent visits in unfamiliar cultural territory, we're already acting inured to the strangeness of eating raw spiders, so it's often a double-whammy.
And the worst part is that they charge extra for any leftovers, so you can't leave even a single leg unmasticated.
Plot twist: these are 6 legged bed bugs. The survivor was right, but now it has to live with the fact that its last words to its buddy were, "You're stupid."
True or not, this becomes moot when you sleep using a full face mask CPAP. It’s also nice, because it also protects against rank farts.
Afaik this is a myth someone put on the internet to see how misinformation spreads.
