From what I've found, there are jumping spiders and camel spiders.
Jumping Spider
Family: Salticidae
Order: Araneae
Class: Arachnida
They can jump from 10 to 40 times the size of their body. They're usually found in tropical environments and have very good eyesight in order to be able to spot prey from 30 to 40 cm away! You can read more about jumping spiders here.

Camel Spiders
Class: Arachnida
Not technically a spider, but a Solpugid! But they're commonly called and known as camel SPIDERS. They can not only jump about 4 feet into the air, but can also run up to 10mph! They scream while they run and are crazy-looking too. (Read more about camel spiders here).

Neither of these creatures are poisonous or even dangerous to humans, although the camel spider can "eat the stomachs out of camels," which I find quite frightening.
