I had never problems with spiders but thank you thats a really good ideal!😚😍
Dodo I need to know are you extinct? Or are you out there?

The Dodo LUCASSS
I know right? I Sub for more lucas
If only *every spider* was like this.
Well only a liitle species like lucas's species the jumping spider.
Then I wouldn’t kill them
I'm with u on that
I wish spiders were like that ;u;
Oh my god, then the cuteness has gone contagious.
This is the only spider that doesn’t trigger my arachnophobia
Same
Completely opposite for me.
Yep
Same nvm its opostie now
@@Guest-lr3eu GENSHIN dude. 😎👍
AR 56 here. Where're you at?😂
Giving him a child's voice was a good call. The kid does a great job! We have to remember most of the animals we encounter have only been on this earth a VERY short time and have no power in this world. We must look out for them.
I won't deny it's a good call. I will claim that it is subjective, since I still don't have a positive reaction to a child's voice. "Aw so cute", it talks "Ugh, it's annoying". Makes me wonder WHY I have that reaction. But yes, I find the voice incredible grating, this is the case for any child's voice, and this is just me, not objective. I'm ~30 years old.
I mean, clearly the nephew has a huge career in front of him! He’s very expressive even at a young age. It’s NOT just something that comes naturally to anyone - but this kid has talent!
Let's just hope he's still in demand after his voice changes when he hits puberty.
@@ApartmentKing66
Voice acting is more than just the base characteristics of your speaking voice. If he wants to talent in expression and playing a role does not disappear through puberty.
When will Pixar Pick up a Lucas Film?
When they get bought by Disney.
@@wonderlandisalanguage9646 But Disney already owns Lucasfilm.
@@Xavio354 FU
I suddenly thought you were talking about lucasfilm studio
They better make it soon
It's the voice that really helps make it over-the-top adorable.
I really like how it's an actual little kid's voice too, not an adult pretending to be a little kid
@@matthewcrome5835
Excatly! And this child is *seriously* talented too!
you do? really? I don't like the little kid's voice, I feel like they could've done something more creative
It has anime eyes, that's what make the little bastard so adorable.😂🤣
@@matthewcrome5835
Yeah, kids voice-actors get paid more. That's why animation always just gets adults to imitate little kids.
The “I have too many eyeballs” gets me, he’s so HECKING CUTE 🥰 😭🥰🥺
This spider proves why I love animation, I love the way he waved at the human. Seeing Lucas just made me want to get a pet spider. So Cuute
Dude get one, I have 4 tarantulas, a jumping spider, an orb Weaver and one other, not sure what kind, wild caught. They are lovely and fascinating pets❤️
This guy probably saved like a million spiders lives. Nobel peace prize to him!
The real Jumpy Spiders are very cute! I was homeless and was living in a park. The jumpy spiders were always hitching rides with me on my electric wheelchair! You should check out the pics of jumpy spiders that have little dew drops or raindrops on their head. They wear them like little hats. These spiders are really friendly! Other spiders are too! They take care of the insect population as well. They are welcome in my home! ☺
@@marywilliams7055 Not all of them. But most.
@@emanatingf I don't want black widows around, but if you don't fear them they usually won't bother you. They just want to survive. Brown Recluse spiders are another story! Those Recluses will chase you!!! I have been chased!! Even worse, and this was truly strange, 2 years apart I tried killing 2 different Brown Recluse spiders and missed in the very same corner! About 2 hours later they came up after me on my water bed!!! I was jumping all over that waterbed trying to kill those attackers! They got mad!!! That was truly weird! What are the chances of 2 doing the same thing 2 years apart? They aren't welcome in my home!! I should've said that, but I was thinking about the good spiders.
I did kill a spider for taunting a little spider. Some spiders started showing up in my home. They were Cellar Spiders. I called them Cellar Dwellers. ☺ They were chill spiders and took care of other little insects. I went in the bathroom and a larger spider was taunting a little Cellar Dweller. It had its little legs all drawn up in fear for its life! I wish I had made a video, but wasn't expecting what happened. I killed that taunting spider!!! My little Cellar Dweller spread its little legs back out like...Ahhhhhh! My life was saved!! 🕷
Spiders eat mosquitoes, so long as it's not an invasion, letting them do their webs and hunt can be beneficial to you.
Nobel peace price is not a toy!
Wow, that kid could have an actual job as a voice actor, he sounds so cute
Yeah, but there are too many kids that sound like this
Is that the same kid who said " Wait a minute, who are you "....????
Or is it a woman?
@This Channel is abandoned then who is he?
Awwwww it’s soooo cuteee
Lucas is so adorable!! I liked the part where he asked to come inside because it was cold outside then said I'll go sleep in the shed. Those eyes! ❤
Thank you for making so many people not want to hurt spiders ever again
To add on, though your job’s in animation, you’re ultimately in the business of spreading compassion, which is one of the most divine things a person can do.
This is really the cutest thing ever... Even my wife who is so afraid of the arachnid made this Lucas to love by her.
Ikr sooo cutee
Congrats! I made your likes turn into 200
🌝
Pass pass pass bye
I am afraid of spiders but now I say “awwwwwwwwwwww” and it killed me when the spider said “iVe BeEn CaPtUrEd” lol
LMAO yup
*E Y E B A L L S*
Same
He cute
Still I’m afraid of it little bit 🤣
I love jumping spiders and Lucas the spider a lot! They are the 2 spiders that don’t trigger my arachnophobia because the way the look and how they both move. They don’t do creep movements and the small legs and big curious eyes, I LOVE EM!
Thank you Joshua for making this adorable bean and his nephew did so well with voice acting :0
2:22 "Hiiiiiii! :D" truly the most caring and adorable spider.
If its a cute and harmless spider then its definitely not from Australia.
Red Back, Funnel Web, Blue Ringed Octopus, Taipan, Tiger Snake, Adder, Box Jellyfish, Stone Fish and the poison thing that lives in a shell, that spikes you when you pick it up.
Come to Australia
You might accidentally get killed.
Your life's constantly under threat
Have you been bitten yet?
You've only got 3 minutes left
Before a massive coronary breakdown..
Red Back, Funnel Web, Blue Ringed Octopus, Taipan, Tiger Snake, Adder, Box Jellyfish, Big Shark - just waiting for you to go swimming at Bondi Beach.
Come to Australia
You might accidentally get killed
Your blood is bound to spilled
With fear your pants will be filled
Because you might accidentally get killed
@@goawayleavemealone2880 One of the "Scared Wired Little Guys" best songs. 👍😄
I’ve seen a spider really cute in a video, it was a jumping spider and she wanted to get in the enclosure of a scorpion because she wanted to eat it it was actually adorable
We actually do have what is called Peacock Spiders which are the size of your little finger nail or smaller, too small to be a danger to humans but they are so colourful and they do this butt dance (hence their name like a Peacock shaking its tail feathers) when attracting a mate. They are a delight to watch when dancing.
🇦🇺🇦🇺😷😷
This butt don't sweat, but it can knit you a sweater.
You ain't never seen a better sweater weather, than a butt knit sweater.
Happy Time.
Me: *sees this spider* awwwww
Also me: *sees a real spider* * screams like a rat being dragged into a dark alley *
I threw my phone when the real spider pic came out
I Always Stare at spiders but i shock If won is near Me cralwing the roof down
Mia Rattie same
r/suspiciouslyspecific
Try to go near the spider and watch it. Try to stay calm and you see, that most spiders are that cute.
Someone should make an animated movie with this character!
Follow up to my last comment.
After watching Lucas videos for just over a week I can now look at close up pictures of spiders on my phone. I used to close my eyes at pictures of tarantulas but now I'm saying how cute they are so thanks again to Joshua and Lucas I have been cured x
2:23 that “hi” is just so cute😭
*proceeded to be stabbed violently in heart by cuteness spear*
My heart- 💖💖💖💗💗
I got to that moment right as you said that
@@krisymac3514 cool
😄😄

I got a kiss!
Jumping spiders are poisons
Haha funny
@@aditiwangikar7774 don't be serious
Yes I'm 😁
@@aditiwangikar7774 OK just don't be too serious nor too happy your head might explode😇😇😇
“I’ve been captured.” No matter how many times I see that, it just keeps getting cuter. 🥺
He's looking at me...."
"
Hi!" (Leg flappin')
I have a really big fear of spiders but whenever I see Lucas my heart melts just for him
Jumping spiders are in reality just that cute. People collect them, feed them, they are all furry and round, they sit and watch you do things. Sort of like a cat, except with eight legs.
Yep actually from my understanding they have the intelligence of a cat usually which is very intelligent by anthropod standards
spidercat
@@deon5729 spidercat spider cat does whatever a spidercat does
@@dragonlord498 can they fly?
@@ArKeTiCt i think some spiders do use webbing to glide or float so sort of perhaps
Me: saw a cute little spider awwww
Reality: *Starts screaming*
there was a spider on my lamp yesterday and it was making a web, so of course I freaked out and killed it :)
I never dared to kill a spider. It’s too cute!
Just kidding I’m too afraid to kill it
Sameeeeeeeeeee
I love spiders they adorable I love em and want a tarantula. I was never scared of them ♥️♥️♥️🕷🕷🕷🕷
RustyLuka l̲̅o̲̅l̲̅ t̲̅h̲̅a̲̅t̲̅s̲̅ m̲̅e̲̅
Absolutely love spiders, Lucas just seals the deal
I’ve followed his channel since he had like maybe a thousand people. Now he millions and his own show. So proud of him and his nephew. I have my Lucas spider plush and even tho the sound box never worked from day one I kept it instead of exchanging it.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Disney made Lucas into a movie
and pay the inventor nothing
I mean the guy did work for Disney for a bit... so if they were interested it’s not like they don’t have his contact info
Yeah. Star Wars
Petition for Lucas the spider movie 🤚
@@generalrodcocker1018 :C
The little kids voice just completes it.
Looks like baby yoda has a run for his money of cutest thing ever
GreatKingHeron 100 𝐭𝐡 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞
PLS DONT PUT BABY YODA INTO THIS HE IS SO NOT CUTE
@@violetapples29 he is cute bruh half the world likes him
@@Bomp.. he's cringe. he's just as annoying as minions.
Baby yoda looks like a booger
The way that Lucas says hi so cutely is so aghh SO CUTE 2:23❤
Spiders are awesome! I love it when these little guys hang around my garden!
when he said hi through that little glass cup my heart just melted!🥰🥰🥰
Angel Lupshu I would air compress it in a plastic bag until is looks like a mint condition comic.
Same
Fun fact: the spider that Lucas is based on (the jumping spider) is very intelligent, having been shown to have problem solving capabilities and even some limited learning ability, enough to recognize that particular humans are not threats if they are gentle. They are also the "cute" spiders that you may have seen with water droplets on their heads, though the jumping spider does not intentionally wear "water hats", that was made up.
That's actually really interesting
Those pictures were just scientists who found out about the fact that a jumping spider’s head is small enough to hold a water droplet. It was a miniphotoshoot
Everything is intelligent > look up the word anthropocentric and then take your pointer finger and point it at your chest area by your dried up heart
Jumping spiders are also less likely to bite you compared to other spiders
@@CariMachet did nothing lol
Lucas makes me feel safe. He’s so sweet 💗😭
This is the only spider I accept in life. Love to Lucas!! 💙💙
3.2k people like having flies in their house.
?
@@wallyianmasso4157 Think about it.
@@zanyzantx fly larvae are useful for preventing gangrene when you have severe open infections such as from a gunshot or knife wound. ;)
I don't kill jumping spiders, AT ALL.
First of all, they are cute.
Secondly, they also come in colors of black, pink and green, sometimes having all those colors on one spider. Super, right?
Thirdly, I patiently watched one in my house stalk, jump a fly, and catch it. It was the coolest thing ever!
Jumping spiders are always welcome in my house!
@@christins.1481 the jumpers are my favorite spiders as well. Not many creatures on Earth can beat a jumping spider that are near its weight class.
My fave part is when Lucas says”now,s my chance………TO ESCAPE”
Ikr🥺
me when the teacher leaves the class : ”now,s my chance………TO ESCAPE”
I was bursting in laughter 😅😂
Ikr i like it
He snek
The kid VA does so well it's adorable 😂🥰
Honestly, this is even scarier than a normal spider. Think about it, a talking spider that sounds like a human child.
"I want people who are afraid of spiders to say aww"
Well, you definitely achieved that :)
Nope
@@irmalair1 :(
I'll still murder any spider that dares to invade my territory no matter how "cute" it is.
You understand Lucas ? Trespassers will be SQUASHED!!! survivors will be SQUASHED AGAIN !
Not on me
*"See's tarantula"*
Me: Aww, Imma call yo-
*"Gets bitten"*
Me: Aww, He bit me
Me:yes
I’m not scared of tarantula’s
Tarantulas usually dont bite people, thats why people should learn to not be afraid of em
@@lukadoncicmvp9006 True
DeadMistake thats amazing
One of my friends is from the same hometown as the animator of Lucas. Apparently the town is really prideful of it and I think that’s super sweet.
If only the world was this grateful to let us have lucas crawling at our bed,walls or ceiling🌍👌🛏🕷🧱🕷💢🕷
Disney should make a movie for this guy!
Ur ABSOLUTELY DAMN RIGHT ...?!!!!!
K
IKR!! That would be a movie I would go see.
He getting a movie but I don't think Disney is making it
@@subswithnovideos-vm1kw No. He sold all rights exclusively to a tv station. So sadly no movie will be made.
Thanos: "Reality is often disappointing."
You have all of the stones, you can bring him to reality
@@justacausalturtle9375 even more u can change every spider in the world like him
Funny
I'm ok with spiders but I saw Lucas on pinterest and fell in love. Ended up following him on youtube, soooo cute
I love how he says ok bye and he is capchered
Lucas deserves his own movie, this is so cute :3
Thanks
Crystal ZL I do deserve a movie
It be great cause it would help kids look at them differently
Honestly, this is the cutest spider in the world. Why can't there be a spider with that type of adorableness?
There literally is. Look up jumping spiders. And you can even get them as pets. There are videos of pet jumping spiders and they are so cute. Look it up 🥰🥰
Irene Randazzo Yeah, but umm...unfortunately real life jumping spiders do not have the ability to talk, especially that cutely.
@@zerozeroeszeroed yeah I know! They are super cute though 😍
The Maratus species (peacock jumping spiders) from Australia are definitely up there.
@@irenerandazzo4206 yes! I love jumping spiders! They're adorable, and very friendly!
Lucas is so friendly hes cute
I loveeee LUCAS ...he is soooo cuttteee and his harp ....
There has to be a movie
Scar - Fortnite Battle Royale i was about to say :)
NO THERE DOES NOT.
+Deep Red it would be cringey as balls
PRECISELY.
Deep Red no but a lot of people would love it.
*Sees a cute spider*
*Bites me*
*Aww it bit me*
*Dies*
Aww it killed me
LMFAO 🤣🤣🤣 you people cracks me up 🤣🤣🤣🤣
LMAO 😂😂😂
awww I feel my heart stopped. Oh wait, it actually stopped!
Bites dinger of
Aaawww how cute
You are a real Artist. And your Nephew has such a cute Voice and made a wonderful Job. Thank you so much.
Really really cute. Cutest voice too! Absolutely amazing animation. Love it!
Me: *sees Lucas* aww I want a spider now
Me, 2 hours later: *sees real spider* EVACUATE
So true..
.......I think I found my long lost twin
Spiders are only cute when animated lol
*DOOM SHOTGUN SOUNDS*
yep
2:22
Lucas: hiii
Me: *dies out of cuteness*
Holy
Kawaiiii
All of the little baby spiders so cute
Had a phone conversation with my son tonight about how cute Lucas is. I think Lucas has cured my arachnophobia, one video at a time THANK YOU
He manipulates people with his big eyes
... **shots spaetzle monster XD**
*and then he sings kiki in yt rewind*
They will look right into your eyes and then act cute! I have had many Jumpy Spider friends!! ☺
@@Some-ux6ig he doesn't he just plays his harp it the song...
Cutest spider on the interwebs!
Butters The Bean world wide web
Butters ❤
I've always found jumping spiders to be fascinating creatures. Lucas made them even more so. I've noticed that when I'm looking at a jumping spider, it will swivel itself to continually keep an eye on me as I move around it. I think they're just as fascinated by me!
That spider is so adorable!
There needs to be-
T shirts
Toys
Teddys/Plushies
Dresses
Shoes
Movies
Tv shows
Wallpaper
Wrapping paper
Baby toys
A squishie
Real life robot version that you can meet at comic con and vid con
ALL FOR THIS LITTLE BEAUTIFUL SPIDER BOI
Trashy Blu a squishy heck yea I am buying it
But he 2 cute 2 squish :(
Don't forget...A fortnite emote and skin
Don't forget a phone case too
maybe propose his character to Disney or Universal? :P just a thought
The voice of Lucas is actually like half of his cuteness value. Glad I finally know a little about him.
ya
I feel the animation would look better if he could show a visible mouth when Lucas talks. Sometimes it breaks my suspension of disbelief watching Lucas because I'm more focused wondering about the cute kid giving voice
When he says "Bye" His voice changes. This animation is love and I only like 'Lucas.' He's Cute, He has a smile, yea. So I would like to but naa, because might be to hard. 😮 Bad idea!!

Yeah its actually not that bad it's quite adorable......but I hate spiders (insects)
I found it too cute that I named my son Lucas😝
Dude, I love your work. You too dodo, keep it up. You always lift me up.
Spiders are probably my favourite animal tbh
This needs to be made in to a Pixar movie immediately.
Agreed
Yes
Totally
Yes lol
Adventures of Lucas The Spider maybe a christmas movie? i would love that 😌
Why can't spiders look like this in real life ;-;
I know right
I dont know 😔i love Lucas the spider
jenny boi they do
Because nature
Bruh hes a jumping spider hes species exist
I absolutely love Lucas!! Awesome creation👍💯🙏🏼❤️🇨🇦
i have araknophobia but those jumping ones are hella CUTE 😭😭
Title of the video "...How He Makes People Fall In Love With Spiders"
Next video´s title: "Monster Tarantula feasts on a rat"
Haha..that happened to me dude😂😂
If he just stood there, he would scare me, but if he said "Hi, I am lucas, I am not scarry", I would be like Ok, I am good now.
James Sunnixx shouldn't you be more creeped out. IT'S A SPIDER TALKING.
100% AGREE! I’m terrified of spiders... my natural instinct is Kill It With Fire🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!! But if it was like “hey friend!” I would be able to explain that there are great parts of the house that it could chill in and my kitchen/bedroom/bathroom are off limits. My lil spiderbro and I would have a great working friendship!... unless the cat got interested in him. Cat rules chump all other rules.
I'm not afraid of spiders but I'm trying to convince my brother that they don't belong in the house. He has seen these videos so he keeps trying to feed them.
James Sunnixx LMAO SAME!
James Sunnixx I like spiders in the house but if one ever talked to me it would die in a millisecond
Sending Lucas and all spiders lots of love 🥰
The "Escape" part was epic🕷
**Okayyyyy I'll just go slp in the shed.**

Incredible. Just lovely.
Always loved weird animals and insects
But this is one of the cutest things I’ve seen
