The Talk's Jerry O'Connell sparks major wave of concern with shirtless photo

Jerry O'Connell took a walk on the wild side over the weekend as he took a break from his hosting duties on The Talk for a very different project. 

The star shared a shirtless selfie on Instagram as he prepared to clean out his shed, but fans immediately began voicing their concern for his wellbeing.

Fans couldn't help but urge him to please beware of spiders - in particular ones which could cause him harm. 

"Hey man. Spray that cavern for bugs first. Then wait. Then do it. You will thank me later," commented one of his followers, while another added: "We try to clean in the winter. No black widows or brown recluse. Wear gloves," and a third wrote: "Watch out for black widows."

Many others said they didn't envy his chore and also pointed out he might want to keep his eyes peeled for rats and other rodents. 

Fans urged him to be careful of dangerous spiders

One fan avoided talk of creepy crawlies and simply had to tell Jerry what great skin he has, to which the TV star replied: "I moisturize."

Jerry's appearance was in stark contrast to a photo he posted just the other day when he was covered up in a very unique shirt.

While Rebecca looked lovely in a simple outfit of jeans and a flowery top, Jerry opted for a bright Hawaiian shirt emblazoned with photos of her face.

"Wow. THAT is a spectacular shirt and a spectacular lady," wrote one, while another added: "That's dedication mate good job stay infatuated," and another commented: "You are setting a very high bar with that shirt. Hubs everywhere are panicking!"
