A friendly, real-life Spider-Man spread cheer in Toronto by building a web on a rooftop and chatting with pedestrians. The coronavirus crisis slammed the world with a slew of bad news, and there appears to be no end in sight. While nothing Spider-Man related has been delayed production-wise, there have been a host of movies and television programs postponed due to fears over the virus. Meanwhile, citizens worldwide are sheltering in place with nothing else to do but watch whatever's on television. Thankfully, a real-life superhero is here to save the day with a vital dose of much needed happy news.
Toronto reporter, anchor, and host Brandon Gonez was delighted to catch the real-life Spider-Man on video and share it with the world on Twitter. A random passerby can be seen walking past Spider-Man as he focuses intently on building a web. Instead of ignoring the citizens of Toronto, the friendly superhero wishes them a happy March break, all while staying completely in character.
Unfortunately, the coronavirus crisis doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon. Movie theaters and countless businesses have been forced to shut down, and highly anticipated movies, like Black Widow, have been delayed. While the health of citizens across the world is a top priority over entertainment options, sometimes being able to watch a favorite show or movie is the best way to cope through a crisis.
Although things seem grim during these pandemic times, it has ironically allowed the best of humanity to illuminate through the darkness. Celebrities like Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively donated $1 million to food banks for coronavirus relief, and Arnold Schwarzenegger posted a few funny clips where he urged spring breakers to stay home and not get others sick. While Toronto's friendly neighborhood Spider-Man has yet to be named, he too is a hero for reminding the world that there truly are good guys willing to protect the populace by spreading cheer.
