Spidey Saves the Day!
Spider-Man brings entertainment and thrills to people of all ages. I work primarily with people who are ill, terminally ill or of special needs. If you need a super hero for a charitable event to brighten the day of those in need, just contact me to see if I can attend. As with all super heroes who work to better other peoples' lives, my services are completely free. Fighting crime is my full time job so please make sure to book in advance.
Everyone knows Peter Parker was the original Spider-Man. Today's Spidey has done a better job of keeping a secret identity. Some people know who I am, most people do not. I prefer it that way. I have my reward by sharing unconditionally. With some of the people I have visited I can honestly say I am grateful to wear a mask so they don’t see my tears. I have seen people over come great odds. I have seen them accomplish victories that seem small to us, but are mountainous for them.
What Made Spider-Man a Super Hero?
When I was four years old, I was first introduced to the concept of super heroes. I loved watching Spider Man cartoons. There was nothing more in the world that I wanted but to be Spider-Man. For as long as I can remember, every birthday, eyelash, shooting star or 11:11 wish was the same. I wished that I could be Spider Man.
I realized that as cool as it would be to stick to walls, to lift cars and to have web shooters the real super power comes from helping other people. I came to the understanding that I could be like Spider Man. I could have that Super Power. I could help other people by bighting their lives a little. I started making appearances as Spider Man 8 years ago. As I began to appear at charitable functions and other events, I saw the joy and happiness that it brought. This was experienced not only by kids but by adults as well. I decided about a year ago that it wasn’t enough for me just to look like Spider Man. I contacted a gymnastics coach and a parkour coach to help me be a better Spider Man. As I have continued to do events, I walk away each time fulfilled. I receive as much from trying to fill the shoes of one of the greatest Super Heroes ever as the people I see.
WHat Others Say About Spidey
- "He's not just your friendly neighborhood Spiderman, he's our HERO. Spiderman came to Type1Racing's aid when he learned our son was putting on his very first "MX for a Cure...Bringing the Hope" back in 2008. Throughout the years we've watched as he put smiles onto thousands of children's faces. Spiderman has helped Type1Racing, a non-profit, 501c3 organization, raise awareness and education of Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) for over eight years now. Spiderman makes the children with T1D, or any obstacle to overcome, feel like heroes too, just by meeting him. Whenever Spiderman visits us at the races, town celebrations, or the annual JDRF 'Walk for a Cure' he brings the fun. Children and adults eyes' light up with delight as they grin ear to ear and hurry to meet him, watch him do his tricks, and of course have a picture taken with him. Spiderman brings magic wherever he goes. We can never thank you enough for all you do, Spiderman!"
Shawn and Judi Jensen - Type1 Racing - "Spiderman has been coming to my son’s charity events and birthday parties for over 5 years now. My son has Down Syndrome and we are very involved with the Down Syndrome Community, and the Utah Down Syndrome Foundation. “Spider-Man” has been an incredible part of each Buddy Walk we have attended and these kids look forward to it every year! Spider-Man is very personable with the kids and spends his time making it a special moment for them, The kids line up to take pictures and talk with Spider-Man, and I hear the kids talking to their friends about him ever since. My son Koda thinks this is his own personal Spider-Man and asks for him each year! There isn’t a time he isn’t in awe!"
Jillian and Brandon Brady - Utah Downs Syndrome Association - "He was off the charts when it came to being a Super Hero!! The best Spider Man out there. In fact, so good we had kids who left feeling they had just met the real deal :)"
Lisanne Pepper - PTA President Lone Peak Elementary - "It's been two years since Spiderman visited my son… He still talks about it everyday."

Ask Spidey to Swing into Action!
You can plan on 2 to 2.5 hours of my undivided attention for photo ops, performing tricks, and personal interaction the whole time. Let me know in advance if there is a private place to change. There is never a charge to do a charitable event. A full background check is available upon request. As with many super heroes, I do have a secret identity. Though a few may know this identity I would ask that you help to keep my secret. This is about the people that need my services, not for my personal accolades.
