Spidey the busking Spiderman deals with a pilfering passerby in Dublin city centre today

Good man yerself spicy!
And right outside the Gotham cafe to boot!!
Spidey I mean spider! :)
So let me get this straight
1. The cameraman and dozens of passerbys saw this and did nothing.
2. This happened and no Garda were called or arrived? (the video lasts 2m44s is taken in broad daylight on Grafton street, a 999 called should take 30s, there were no Garda within two minutes of Grafton St when this happened)
Joking aside Spiderman was more than capable of taking care of himself against this scumbag, but if the guy pulled a knife and stabbed him this could be a very different story,

You honestly think a Garda would actually do their job?
So Atlas we need to use blokes in Spiderman costumes who know a bit of Judo?
I’d say if Smackman pulled a knife a few passersby might get involved alright. Spidey was doing fine with his basic Aikido.
…hate agreeing with fatboy…but deffo aikido..
Sorry, you are wrong. If someone pulls a knife on someone else people will not get involved. People don’t want to get stabbed.
I totally disagree. Cowards will not get involved. But brave people would.
You don’t have a clue.
If I was walking up the street and some scumbag pulled a knife on a friend, relative, partner, or a random vulnerable person I would most definitely get involved, and if they pulled the knife during a scuffle I would get involved even quicker. I’m not trying to big myself up (I’m not under the impression that I have any fighting ability whatsoever), I just know that is how I would react. I’m certain that many other people would react in the same way.
You don’t know how you would react until you are in that situation. It’s easy to say you’ll play the hero but you just don’t know.
Brave, stupid people.
jungleman you read too many comic books, people will avoid getting stabbed, especially in this kip of a country where cops are very likely to arrest you too.
I agree, many people would not get involved. But many would.
There were people just waiting to get involved if needed. Anyway, there’s quite a few plain clothes Gardaí in the area all the time. They were probably watching too.
Maybe you should perk your ears up. Spidey tells the thief he’ll not let him leave until the Gardaí arrive and the kerfuffle you see is Spidey detaining the robber.
Happy now.
A knife wound wouldn’t be a problem. Spider-man has a fast healing factor, not as fast as Wolverine but good enough in a pinch.
Could always give him a hand?
I suppose he had it under control.
Smackman who probably commits 100+ crimes a day and has multiple suspended criminal sentences would end up suing you for assault if you got involved.
Great job by spidey it has to be said.
Does that mean we can start sueing the smack heads too?
They have nothing to give you. Get real.
And I nothing to give them so bring it on.
With great power comes great responsibility.
+Spiderman 4
Marvel are really phoning it in with this new archnemesis.
He needs a catchy name.
Junkieman?
The Junkie?
Smack Head?
J Jonah Junkie
Shiterman
Needles
The Sloth…
Unrivalled reach, undermined by super slo-mo movement and need for regular rests.
‘Smokes’
non violence does work it seems , fair play , a lesson to us all ….

Thats the greatest achievement in the video. This is like a U rated spiderman, family viewing.
If It was me, I’m afraid I would have clobbered him as a first reaction.
“I done nuthin”. Fecking scourge.
I think Spiddy is a chinese guy. Passed him the other day with my niece and we ran the other way. He’ll be getting 2 euro off me tomorrow when I’m passing.
He was over in New York the other day but didn’t have such a great time.

So did he get his money back?
Ha ha ha! Best day ever! :-D
He should have thrown the junkie scumbag into the bin truck.
That is one of the laziest scumbags I have ever seen. Not trying at all.
He was very disappointing.
They are generally flighty little fuppers so I’m quite surprised with this one. Maybe Spider-Man got off easy.
Sorry mods. Edit away.
Spider-Man vs The Hobgoblin.
Yeah it is funny, but somebody should have helped ! He is in a costume with no pockets he needed help getting his money back and keeping it , too many people in this world watching and laughing . Even Spiderman needs help sometimes !!
Go Spiderman! You handled yourself well.
Dublin is choc full of howiyas its depressing
It’s hard to tell these days, what with all the zombie walks.
Jobsbridge the lot of them.
I saw this happen. The Gards were called. It looked like they were more in favour of tracksuit guy. The first thing they did when Spidey took off his mask (no, he’s not Irish, but he’s not Chinese) was ask him for ID. They did not seem sympathetic to him whatsoever.
I’d be concerned that the junkie will be back tomorrow with some backup and a syringe.
Infringing copyright is a serious crime.
Identifying the people involved in an incident is the first step every time. Both those reporting crimes and those suspected of committing them.
The guards aren’t in to this spider dude at all. Keep moving him along. Not sure why.
Because he’s a fupping idiot, that’s why.
there’s a lot of it about. Possibly spread by badgers.
Brazilian I’d say, in the video he says “não enche nóia” Portuguese for don’t stress me Junkie.
pois é, o Homem Aranha mandou ver!
Well picked up Norm
no doubt whatsoever Spiderman was Irish, not in a million years.
Spidey seems to tell the guy at the end that the man in the tracksuit uniform robbed a woman.
Just seen another video of it on FB that shows it from the start. The guy in the track suit was really getting stuck in. FairPlay to Peter Parker for remaining so restrained.
Link to the video?

Grafton Street really is an awful, unsophisticated kip.
Lol just teens trying to get laid and then have abortions after alright

Eh, this is South Anne Street.
What is your idea of sophistication ABM, ya know, considering you’re a proponent of its opposite, the sheep mentality and all?
Only thing is – have you seen the facial scars on some of the roughnecks that hang around Dublin these days?
You can bet most of them carry knives. The ones at Aston Quay corner are pretty hardcore, .
I live around the corner and have a batman suit. Why didn’t someone call me. Why?
Brilliant
Well done Spidey.
The man dressed up as Spiderman is an asshole. He’s mocking the other man, despite what he did or didn’t do.
There’s no context to this. We see what is supposed to be a funny situation and we’re all expected to mock and laugh and judge the man in the tracksuit, based on no evidence. You assume ‘Spiderman’ is the good guy because you make stupid associations with a fictional comic.
If there was a crime committed, he should have made a citizens arrest in order to detain him. Instead, he has set himself up for an assault and false imprisonment charge.
It’s the failure of normal policing laid bare in front of you all but you can’t see that. Idiots.
@Planet of the Missing Braincells – I can see no evidence of false imprisonment. Tracksuit guy is free to go at all times but no, he keeps coming back at the Spiderman guy. There’s only one agressor here. Are we watching the same video?
to be honest the only thing to do with these skangers is drop them in acid vats, no other use for them at all at all.
You all complain about the junkies and bums and scumbags but you never ask why they are there and what causes all the misery and poverty on the streets. You don’t want to know you mono-cultured selfish self entitled detached non-protesting docile fashion parade of w*nkers.
Saving the fupping world behind a keyboard and lecturing all of humanity?
Be quiet and show a bit of respect for others.
Thank you.
LOL you sound like great craic, do you have a newsletter I can subscribe to ?
PS: Are you the OK Cupid guy with the list of stupid relationship rules ?
exactly, don’t need to know really.
Where is wonder woman and cat girl when the cameras are out,probably down in temple barf gettin’ mouldy.
You’re all spelling Spider-Man wrong. Its Spider-Man. Not Spiderman.
Govern yourselves accordingly.
It’s.
Issue is spelling rather than grammar. Touche though.
Touché.
