Everyone knows Spider-Man doesn't murder, and in Marvel's Spider-Man, Insomniac made sure to have their bases covered, even including a special web technology that latches bad guys onto the wall if you kick them off of a roof. But sometimes Spider-Man's fighting style looks a bit murder-y. So I'm here to justify 13 ways Spider-Man is definitely not murdering people. Number one, electrocution. Eh, this is just a Taser on steroids, it's not that big of a deal. Number two, webbing people to scaffolding and then pulling that scaffolding down. Scaffolding doesn't weigh that much, really, when you think about it. Number three, yanking people out of a moving car. This is like the same thing as on the roof, your web's going to pull them to a wall. It's a car. It's dangerous. Should've worn a seatbelt, buddy. Number four, webbing and then throwing rockets back to people. The web here actually destroys the ability for the rocket to explode, so it's basically like throwing a thermos at someone's head. Number five, throwing a manhole cover. Wikipedia tells me that most manhole covers are roughly 250 pounds, but at least he's throwing them vertically and not like a terrible death frisbee. Number six, throwing a motorcycle. This one is very heavy and also explodes. Motorcycles are inherently dangerous, eh, they were probably gonna hurt themselves driving it around anyway, so... Number seven, ricocheting bullets back at people. This is a special Spider-Man suit power, and, uh, it's just self defense. Spider-Man is making the conscious decision to turn it on and have those bullets go back at people, but... self defense. Number eight, diving under someone so that they get shot by the bullets. Totally fine. Yes, it will force one henchman to violently shoot one of their own friends. Um. We never said Spider-Man couldn't murder someone psychologically. Number nine, smacking someone's head on an I-beam. Now this one, it will, it will have some lasting damage. Peter Parker is a real smart guy, and he probably put something in the web that is healing, and so it's kind of like a cocoon, and, but, when they come out of the cocoon instead of being a butterfly, they'll have lasting brain damage. Number 10, the snapping neck finisher. This one does sound very bad. *CRRRACK* It sounds very bad. But it could be some sort of unlicensed chiropracty. Number 11, the air finisher where you fling the person down onto their head. *deep breath* um... The way the guy crumples right there is very disconcerting. Self-defense, again, right? And hopefully no one will point out the fact that Spider-Man kicked that person into the air first and then flung them onto the ground because that would be a hard sell to... to pretty much any jury. Number 12, webbing and then throwing someone into a lake. This does kind of look like Spider-Man has had a premeditated motive to send this webbed up person into a small pond, kind of like disposing of a body by putting it into a rolled up carpet and throwing it in a river. But... that isn't what it is. Spider-Man noticed this man was overheating and wanted him to relax in a pond. And finally, webbing someone onto a truck that will most likely explode and then deliberately saving two of the people but not the one you webbed up. *explosion* You know that guy deserved it, so, like, who fuckin' cares, right? Thanks so much for watching this video.
