Heheheh... So becomming a university professor was your second career
|
|
choice? ;-)

Seriously though (or not, as the case may be), The Amazing Spiderman had
|
|
many other abilities to help him out. Most notable, perhaps, was his
|
|
'spidey strength' and 'spidey senses'. The strength to weight ratio of a
|
|
spider is so high that Spiderman is able to throw a bus several city
|
|
blocks with little effort. His endurance is similarly enhanced as well.
|
|
|
|
As for the spidey senses, well they're really great, but AFAIK not
|
|
really well explained in the comic series. Spiders have multiple eyes,
|
|
ears, noses and tongues which Peter Parker did not visibly have. There
|
|
have been a few attempts to explain his heightened reflexes, from the
|
|
biological to hidden methamphetamine use, but none seem to do the spidey
|
|
sense justice... I seem to recall Spiderman being able to detect the
|
|
presence of well concealed weapons and even sense evil-doers while they
|
|
were in their street clothes. Perhaps the spidey senses are the result
|
|
of some sort of quantum entanglement?
