if the goliath spider were the same size as a human it could hold the force of a 747 jet engine without moving

That would actually be incorrect, if a goliath spider was the size of a human, it would barely be able to move itself and would easily be overpowered by a human. Rule of all nature (biology, physics, etc): when you double the size, the strength in relation to its size is cut in half.

(b) it's at 0.01[sup]o[/sup]C...

I was thinking the same thing.

However I believe he meant if the spider's strength was to grow in relaton to its increased size.

Masturbating 6 times a day since you're 13 up to 18 or older will have severe consequences for your testosterone levels.

A comrade of mine told me that and he regrets it. I'm hoping that's temporary.

...it seemed appropriate...

0 degrees Kelvin is the lowest temperature possible, since there is absolutely no heat energy left in the molecules. Plus, some substances exhibit strange properties when they reach close to 0K, such as superconductivity.

lol I knew someone would catch that.

Strange and uncalled for, but it is supportive of my argument either way.

Ermm... I don't think there's any evidence to suggest that 0K is possible...
