Watch This Real-Life Spider-Man Leap Across London [VIDEO]

Spider-Man may be able to crawl on walls and spin webs, but he is just a comic-book character, after all. Instead, catch a glimpse of his real-life counterpart in a new YouTube video.

Clad in the superhero's iconic red and blue colors, an unidentified man -- likely the "Peter Parkour" mentioned in the video's title -- leaps and bounds across London. He backflips in parks, does handstands on bridges, and climbs up the side of buildings.

The video, which was posted online Tuesday, promotes the Blu-ray and DVD release of The Amazing Spider-Man.
