    cuz they're very light, and they have sticky feet. They're attaced to the verticle surface, but the thin, silky thread coming out of their body, so when/ if they are attacked and going to fall, they have that thread as a safety net.
    Spiders have a special brush of hairs on their legs allowing them to adhere to surfaces so they can walk upside down.
    Magic. The lesser know way that spiders do stuff...
