This is the Rain Spider, and it grows quite large in southern Africa. I know because I took this picture which is of a specimen approximately 3 inches long in the back room of our house about a half an hour ago.
I know that it may pain some of you to hear this but I crushed it with my shoe moments after photographing it. I was actually a little unsure as to whether my shoe was going to be enough to take down such a beast, but it did very nicely.
