David against Goliath: Jumping Spider kills Assassin bug

This little Jumping Spider (family Salticidae) was filmed in Mindo, Ecuador as it killed an Assassin bug (family Reduviidae) much bigger than itself. These predatory bugs use their long rostrum to inject a lethal saliva into other insects or spiders that liquefies the insides of the prey, which are then sucked out. But in this case the Assassin bug became itself assassinated by a Jumping Spider which jumped on its back, paralyzed it by a bite into its neck and later sucked it out.
