6-year-old boy with leukaemia meets Spiderman, London

A six-year-old boy suffering from leukaemia had his dream come true – when he saw Spiderman shoot a web from the top of a 117ft tall building. Youngster Adjani Mamboleo from Leeds, West Yorks, travelled almost 200 miles to Wembley, London, in a limousine to meet his favourite superhero. Spiderman can be seen hanging from his ‘web’ as he scales the walls of leading office provider Business Environment’s Wembley office.

Children’s charity Rays of Sunshine gave Adjani the chance to meet his hero at the bottom of the 12-storey building. Adjani is currently undergoing treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia, which was diagnosed when he was four. His greatest wish is to be Spiderman and meet the real Spiderman.
Rays of Sunshine grants the wishes of children with serious or life-limiting illnesses.

He travelled in style to see Spiderman’s powers brought to life and also had the opportunity to meet him and ask him questions about his secret superhero life. His mother, Sharon a social worker, said: "We travelled down in the limousine and Adjani was so excited – he had no idea what was going to happen. He couldn’t believe it when he saw Spiderman climbing down this huge building. It was such a fantastic day and he even got to meet his favourite superhero and have a chat with him. It was the best feeling seeing his wish and dream come true."

David Saul, from Business Environment and co-founder of Rays of Sunshine, said: "We are immensely proud to be able to make the wishes of children like Adjani come true. All of the children Rays of Sunshine help are bravely battling through serious illnesses and to bring them a moment of happiness like this is so important to them and their families."

Real life Spiderman? Daring window cleaner wears superhero suit to scale 78th floor

A window cleaner in Indonesia has become a celebrity for scaling the walls dressed as Spiderman. Sardi the ‘Spiderman’ has been cleaning the windows of a hotel in Solo, Indonesia, for two and a half years and has earned a reputation for dressing as Spiderman when he works. The 35-year-old masked crusader scales the building using just ropes in his dedication to clean the windows up to the 78th floor.

Sardi took the job because he felt compelled to conquer the heights, but it does not come without its downsides. The Spiderman costume is heavy and tires Sardi out, and the face mask can leave him gasping for air. Guests at the hotel often watch Sardi clean the windows, and members of the public even stop to admire his handiwork.

Earlier this year the UK had its own superhero in the shape of the Bradford Batman, aka Stan Worby, who was later arrested for burglary.
