Today, my mother finally pressured me to wear my old helmet while riding my bike. Halfway through my ride, 3 spiders came crawling out of it and onto my face, causing me to lose control of the bike and crash head-first. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was cleaning my garage and decided to put my motorcycle helmet on with the strap, to see if it still fits. A huge spider crawled down the inside of the helmet and I freaked out trying to get the strap off. I then tripped on my daughter’s scooter and dislocated my left pinky toe. FML
Today, while hiking, I walked face first into a spider web. Freaking out, I shook my hair out in case there was a spider. Later on in the day the spider fell from my hair into my food. FML
Today, my mum hit me with her car as she was backing out of the driveway, hitting my leg, and crushing my bike. For the third time this year. FML
Today, I went biking. I attempted a large hill and lost control, slipped, and fell ten feet into a sewage pit. Riding home covered in crap, my sock caught my chain and I flipped over my bike. My dad had to spray me with the garden hose, bloody and shitty, in the front yard. FML
Today, I was riding my bike down a road I know is quite hazardous. Having almost been hit in the same spot the day before, I rode across the intersection very satisfied without having been injured. Until I crashed into the guy front of me and flipped over my handlebars. FML
Today, a spider dangled an inch away from my face while I was driving. I freaked out and accidentally bumped the car in front of me. Three cops arrived on the scene and I had to explain to them what happened. I can still hear them laughing. FML
Today, I needed to buy a new crash helmet. I went to the motorbike shop and saw one I liked the look of. It was a bit of a tight fit, and I got my head stuck in it. I had to get the guy behind the counter to help me pull it off. My ears are still numb. FML
Today, after finally getting up the nerve to take my motorcycle to up 75 mph on the freeway, I made it off in one piece, only to fall off my bike in the mall parking lot. FML
Today, I fell off my bike. I grazed my knee, shin, thigh, hip, collar bone, shoulder and face. I also strained my wrist. As I was wheeling my bike away, I stung my other leg on nettles. FML
Today, a spider came down from its web in front of my face. This would have been fine and I could have killed it easily if I wasn't in my car. Driving on the highway. I cried. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Actually, I've heard that if you ride a bike close to cars, they will be much less careful around you if you wear a helmet, but it won't protect you much if a car hits you. At least you won't be attacked by spiders without a helmet. Spiders are creepy.

I think this is fake you would have crushed them when you put it on or the helmet is to big then YDI for buying a bad helmet

No, this has happened to people before. I saw on TV once on one of those medical shows, a woman had an earache for days and went to the doctors. When the doctor examined her ear, he saw something in there but it was too deep for him to pull out, so he put in drops to make it float out (or something like that). Turned out to be a red-back spider (frigging lucky it didn't bite her, those things can kill you) that had crawled into her ear from her bike helmet a few days earlier.

Where I live, it's a good idea to check anything like that before putting it on. Shoes, helmets, gloves that you don't use often. If you don't, you're liable to find things worse than a couple baby spiders- like deadly poisonous spiders, or maybe if you're lucky, just a scorpion. :p Even found a snake in my shoe once.
