Taekwondo Spider-Man doesn’t need webslingers
Taekwondo Spider-Man might not have been bitten by a genetically altered spider but he doesn't need sticky hands and web-slingers to kick criminal butt.
The martial arts guru in this video, uploaded on the channel belonging to Aaron Gassor, is not the kind of superhero a thief would want to encounter in a dark alley.
Gassor's channel says he is a second degree black belt in Taekwondo and kickboxing, and he's also learned Thai boxing and Kenpo.
Few would take the place of the Body Opponent Bag this costumed Spidey beats up throughout the video. He kicks it repeatedly while doing a hand stand, spin kicks it in the neck and knocks it over.
That poor, armless dummy never stood a chance.
Not satisfied with obliterating his inanimate opponent, martial arts Spider-Man does enough back flips to make viewers dizzy. If Spider-Man was real, he would probably need these moves.

Is it the unitard? One thing is certain, it's time for a theoretical show-down between Tobey Maguire Spider-Man, Andrew Garfield Spider-Man and Taekwondo Spider-Man.
