Are jumping spiders poisonous to humans? As in dangerous.

Spiders legs are just big old(okay, so maybe tiny) hydraulic actuators. Their heart pressuries there legs and they control the pressure to each leg and vary it to move. So, when a spider dies, its leg lose pressure and it curls up since the lower pressure makes the legs contract Makes them even freakier if you ask me. Cybernetic death machines is what they sound like.
