William Spencer, the Real Life Spider-Man :: The Life in a Day
Andrew Garfield might be the face of the Spider-Man franchise, but William Spencer is the real-life skateboarding, gravity-defying Spider-Man. Hailing from Colorado vis-à-vis Texas, William began skating after being inspired by his older brother and skater, Shad Spencer, before expanding his skating into other realms, landing a gig at California's Six Flags in the stunt show. Soon enough, he was called up to be Andrew Garfield's stunt double in the newest reboot of Spider-Man. Suddenly, his innovative way of skating became a recognized art form. Now, William continues to strive for inventive ways of approaching everything—from skating to stunts to the way he sees the world. "You look around the world and you're like, 'Man, this place could be less boring if we all tried to do what we want to do just a little more.'"
