We could think that it’s iron or steel but… It’s not! According to some scientists, the most resistant material created by nature is… A spider’s web! Which can be up to 5 times more resistant than steel and it’s also very elastic! Spiders use their web to capture prey and feed, but us humans also use it! We use spider’s webs for example, to make bulletproof vests, suture thread to stitch up wounds, clothes, violin cords or special ropes that handle many many kilos, like this escalator.
