Man dressed as Spiderman feeds homeless in Birmingham

A man who dresses up as the action hero Spiderman has been spotted helping the homeless in Birmingham.

The 20-year-old barman - who does not want to be identified - has even set up a Twitter account to let people know about his good deeds.

Really enjoying the positivity I'm being able to spread with my work, will be out next on Monday to hand out food #SpreadThePositivity

He says he has been buying and giving food to those sleeping rough in the city before he became a superhero.

He said: "I've always done it for a number of years, and I thought to myself in the last couple of weeks why not do it as Spiderman, because I saw the smiles from people as I was handing them sandwiches, imagine their smiles when they see Spiderman doing it.

"People seem to have taken to it really positively."

Someone from I Am Birmingham followed the costumed crusader around during one of his missions to help the homeless in the city, and filmed the video below.
