The famous web-slinger was caught on camera in South Seattle this weekend, just hanging around. Did you see him?
Spider-Man Spotted in South Seattle, Webbing Rainier Beach
Yesterday morning (March 16, 2025), a surprising superhero sighting happened in South Seattle that still has people talking. A man dressed as Spider-Man was filmed perched on top of a power box at the intersection of Rainier Ave S and S Henderson, near the Sherwin Williams paint store. The man was dressed in a dirty Spider-Man costume, striking poses in true superhero style, and hunched down in a classic Spider-Man crouch prepared for action.
In the viral video, the Spider-Man impersonator can be seen pretending to shoot webs at passing cars. He is seen on video “webbing” the traffic and even flashing a peace sign to one of the vehicles driving by. As the camera zoomed in, you can see the man also has a black backpack and is wearing white sneakers peeking over the Spider-Man suit.
The video was posted by Seattle Submissions (@SEATTLESUBMISS) on Twitter. What made the moment even more surreal was the unexpected location of the superhero stunt: South Seattle at Rainier Beach. Let’s say it is a neighborhood typically not associated with web-slinging superheroes as a mostly safe area. lol…
