What if Spider-Man existed in real life?

Would he be accepted in the real world?

oh would you look at that the draft was just reinstated... holy crap Spider-Man got drafted... what are the chances

No.

I’d hope it’s me

no he wouldn't. also, he would be a lot easier to kill in real life than in the comics. peter probably would be rich because he would not have to somehow stay poor to be relatable.

Mo.... Here

No one would like someone who is always late

We're about to find out...

Seriously tho, "real world" Spidey would have Lovers and Haters!

He would not live long. First person he came across with decent aim kills him.

Spider-Man has pre-cog and can dodge bullets, normal people with guns aren't going to kill him.

He'd probably get rich from selling his DNA to scientists, then everyone would probably get his powers and due to the healing factor in particular he'd be renowned as the dude who saved million's of lives.

@icec0ld: Do you not know about Spider-Man's superhuman agility and pre-cog?

@icec0ld: yes...because Spider-Man in his career has never dodged bullets or dance around them

De Fuq? You serious?

Secret identity?

He can dodge bullets...

@thespartanb345t:

@thespartanb345t:

That's a movie, not real life. He'd have to move much faster to dodge a bullet in real life. It would in fact be quite easy to hit him.

Is someone seriously claiming that Peter gets friggin shot when he is a whole tier above high-end bullet timers in terms of speed?

Da fuq?

@tenguswordsman:

The question is REAL LIFE. He can't move fast enough to dodge a bullet in real life. Even if he moved from one he's getting hit with the follow up shot.

People can shoot small skeet targets that are much harder to hit compared to a human size target.

@icec0ld: When a fictional character gets transfered into RL, it is always assumed that said character does not suddenly obey the laws of RL, meaning Peter is still just as powerful as in 616 Marvel.

@icec0ld: OP didn’t say that 616 Spider-Man wouldn’t be as powerful if he were to exist in our world. So yes, good luck hitting him with bullets

@icec0ld: Bullets in fiction is just as fast as in real life. Spider-Man just happens to be able to dodge them effortlessly with his precog and speed. I get that fictional fodders suck at aiming, but this wouldn't affect Spidey at all.

@lan_fan:

Again not at all how that would work in real

Life he would be shot.

@icec0ld: you can’t be this dense, OP didn’t say anything about Spidey being slower irl, so all of his feats from 616 still apply in the real world

@icec0ld: We're talking about someone who actually possesses Spider-Man's powers, not some random dude in a red spider suit.

How about this? Explain to us the scientific explanation of what you're saying. Why do you even think bullets in comic are slower than in real life? And why do think Spider-Man can't move as fast as his feats suggest in real life?

The US government would get scared and drop a nuke on him

I would accept him. Can’t say the government would though.

@lan_fan:

I'm not going to type a five pages explanation.

Instead I will tell you this, even spiderman in real life you not be able to dodge gunfire the way he does on film and in movies.

I absolutely guarantee that most capable humans would not only be able to track him, he's a human sized Target in a red and blue suit, but also be able to shoot him with next to no concerted effort.

It would be harder in real life to shoot a fast pitch out of the air than it would be to shoot spiderman.

He's simply too big, and you are vastly under estimating human reflexes and reaction time.

Ask any man of science.....take your pick. If spiderman with all his spider powers could dodge repeated gunfire.

Especially if he's swinging he's a sitting duck. He would need to move at a rate faster than a bullet and be able to stop all his momentum in a literal instant to change directions and avoid a follow up shot and he would have to complete that motion at a speed at least 3 times faster than the bullet is travelling just to avoid accidentally running into a follow up shot.

He can't move that fast, that's Superman level speed.

If you wanted to be able to dodge bullets you'd need the following.

Reaction time at least 1000 times faster than normal

Super hearing sensitive enough to hear a round chamber from a considerable distance. Bullets travel faster than sound so if he's reacting to the noise than he's already dead because the bullet is well ahead of the sound the gunshot makes.

And a physical ability to move three times faster than the speed of sound. And I mean in an instant unless he's several hundred meters away a bullet can cover distance of 100 meters near instantly. Spiderman would need to be able to outpace the speed of the bullet from a standstill. We're talking 0 to mach 3 in an instant.

It's just not likely he'd be able to do it.

@green_tea:

The OP also didn't say that people would be as incompetent as they are in comics. In real life even with his comic feats he'd be shot dead rather quickly. Physics don't lie, bullets are much faster than Peter Parker.

In comics they don't behave the same way, bullets bouncing off walls and all kinds of nonsense. Spiderman would be Swiss cheese.

His web wouldn't even work the same way. He would never be able to accurately web something from a distance. The moment the wind catches it, not mention the movement of him swinging would send the web all over the place

You are just using headcannon on everything...we have two hypotethical cases:

1.- Spiderman gets thrown into our reality as he is in the comics (meaning he wont be as effective in real life as things work differently) For example...you cant go faster than light in real life (unless you are atom size or something), like some comicbook characters do. (superman would be slower than light speed in this case) <<<---THIS is the case you are describing,

And number 2:

2.-Spiderman gets thrown into our reality, and the effectiveness of his powers gets scaled up to our standars, meaning HE IS able to dodge our bullets, and move faster than our bullets, etc etc....basically he is a REAL LIFE spiderman, not a comicbook spiderman in our real world. In which case he wouldnt die easy..at all, This would just scare the US Goverment and they would find a way to kidnapp him later to make experiments anyway, but still, his physical feats wouldnt be weak at all. (superman would be faster than light in this case)

You are just focusing on case 1..where as case 2 would be different.

I think he would die in both cases tho, in case 2 it just would be waaaaay harder to deal with a guy like this.

Just like in the movie "Glass" people with power wouldnt allow someone like that to exist.

He's already real.

@subline: If Spider-Man was real, the police would figure out his indentity lol.

He would probably be kidnapped and experimented on to see could his powers be transferred to soldiers

@erickagl17:

I'm not using head cannon. It doesn't matter if he has exactly his same level of powers. You're literally ignoring physics and the insane speed of a bullet. This isn't a comic book. He would still need to move at several times the speed of sound to dodge a bullet and would need to do so instantly

You are literally ignoring the physics and insane speed of comicbook spiderman, he has literal PRE COGNITION.

HE DOES move at pretty insane speeds.. an ak 47 bullet is barely twice as fast as sound, spiderman has reacted to things faster than that in comics before.

You not being able to imagine that is a different thing.

@icec0ld:

If you wanted to be able to dodge bullets you'd need the following.

Well, if this is your scientific explanation of dodging bullets, then Spider-Man fits all of these requirements and more, considering he has already dodge bullets casually. That's how it works. Why do you think this site wanks bullet timers so much? Because it's hard to do.

Also, he doesn't need hearing due to his spider sense.

He can't move that fast, that's Superman level speed.

Are you kidding me? Superman is infinitely faster than these requirements.

Spider-Man does have supersonic super speed, the argument that he couldn't dodge bullets is dumb. Though being able to move at supersonic speeds is pretty unlikely, biologically speaking.

@erickagl17: @mrtrey:

Supersonic speed huh.......ok. whatever you say.

Erick you clearly have little to no understanding of physics and I'm not going back and forth with you.

You can ask anyone of ability, physicist, your highschool science teacher any professional that understands physics. Ask them if spiderman, with all his comic feats was real could dodge a bullet in real life I guarantee they will tell you the same....NO.

You're entire argument is based off of comic book feats that are dictated by writing. He Dodge's bullets because he's WRITTEN to do so.

People shooting at home in comics spray and pray they don't lead their shots like people do in real life. And even with his speed a regular human would absolutely be able to see and track spiderman.

Again a fast pitch baseball would be harder to shoot than spiderman would it's fact. I'm not even going to argue it with you.

That's a really stupid argument.

Wait, he doesn't?

He'd be OP for sure, but what would be even more OP is Peter Parker, who would probably end up being able to solve problems like global warming, cure vast swathes of diseases, etc. without even putting his mask on.

You are just too close minded to even understand what im saying...

the same way he is WRITTEN to dodge bullets, it would be in real life, you would just take his capacity to do such things into our real world.

@erickagl17:

You're missing the fact that in real life people aren't WRITTEN to shoot and react completely inept. He is wrt to dodge bullets because in comics humans can't track him.

Real life humans absolutely would be able to.

Do you know how fast something the size of a human that brightly colored would have to move for you not to be able to shoot it?

Daredevil would be able to dodge bullets in real life (not machine gun fire though) as he could hear you squeezing the trigger and properly time a couple evasions.

You are severely underestimating human ability.

The police shoot him.

@icec0ld:

Do you know how fast something the size of a human that brightly colored would have to move for you not to be able to shoot it?

That's like saying we could shoot The Flash because scientifically he wouldn't be able to move that fast. Obviously none of this stuff is scientifically possible, but that's not what he's asking. Spider-man as a fictional character simply moves that fast.

@theoneabovelife: and they miss

@green_tea: Yeah when they find out Peter is white. Miles Morales on the other hand...

ok, that made me lol in real life ?
