Spiderman Wannabe

In my opinion, Spiderman is the greatest superhero who has ever existed! I have followed his quests ever since I saw him as a cartoon figure on TV, many years ago. I really enjoyed watching the first two movies, and tonight I get to see him in the third one. Hopefully this one will be just as good as the first two movies. When I read the news today, this article caught my attention right away. Nicola Pugno, a guy from the Polytechnic University of Turin, is developing a suit almost similar to the one Spiderman is using. I can imagine that the design will be rather different, but it should make it possible for humans to do moves similar to the mentioned superhero. Even though this is not intended for use by ordinary people, and probably won’t be released for another ten years, the thought of having one of these suits in my closet gives me the shiver. As Jerry Seinfeld said in his Broadway show, In a male’s mind, being a superhero is not a fantasy, it is an option.
