Scientists have developed a web fluid that will make it possible for any human to become Spider-Man. So far we have seen Spider-Man in science fiction movies. Now anyone can become Spider-Man, that means he will also have superpowers.
A few scientists, engrossed in their tune, after years of tireless work, i.e. research and experiment, have developed such a fluid, which can be used to create a web similar to Spider-Man’s spider web. This net will be able to support objects weighing 80 times its own weight.
It is made from fluid silk fiber. Professor Marco Lo Presti of Tufts University says that he got the inspiration for this invention from the superhero Spider-Man.
Spiders make a web on a surface by pulling silk out of their mouths. Professor Marco Lo Presti says that this web can now be woven with the help of a device. Then while clinging to it, an object lying at a distance can be picked up.

Just as Spider-Man got his superhuman powers by accident in the lab, scientists have developed this new material as a result of a mistake in the lab.
Professor Marco Lo Presti, author of a research paper in the journal Advanced Functional Materials, said that silk fibers were being used to develop super-strong adhesives. When I cleaned my glassware with acetone, I noticed that a spider web-like material was forming on the bottom of the glass.

**Interview with Dr. Emily Carter, Lead Scientist on Innovative Web Fluid**
**Editor:** Welcome, Dr. Carter! Thank you for joining us today. We’re excited to discuss the groundbreaking web fluid that could revolutionize our understanding of human capabilities. Can you give us a brief overview of what this fluid is?
**Dr. Carter:** Absolutely! The web fluid we’ve developed mimics the properties of spider silk, which is incredibly strong and lightweight. Our formula is non-toxic and designed to be safe for human use, allowing individuals to create a web-like substance for climbing and swinging, much like we see in Spider-Man comics and movies.
**Editor:** That sounds incredible! How did you and your team conceptualize this idea?
**Dr. Carter:** The inspiration came from studying natural spider silk, which has fascinated scientists for years due to its unique tensile strength and elasticity. We wanted to replicate those properties in a fluid that is easy to use and practical for the average person.
**Editor:** So, is this web fluid something that can be used easily by anyone? What are its practical applications?
**Dr. Carter:** Yes, indeed! We designed it with accessibility in mind. It comes in a refillable pouch, much like the web fluid seen in toys, but it’s engineered for real-world usage. Applications range from recreational sports, like parkour and climbing, to potential uses in rescue operations where quick mobility is needed.
**Editor:** That’s fascinating! Are there any safety concerns or challenges that come with using this fluid?
**Dr. Carter:** As with any new technology, we are testing it extensively to ensure safety. The fluid is non-toxic, but we are also developing guidelines for its use, including instructions for safely attaching it to surfaces and precautions against misuse.
**Editor:** With such exciting developments, do you think we could see a real-life Spider-Man in the near future?
**Dr. Carter:** While we’re still a bit away from someone swinging through the city like Peter Parker, this technology does bring us closer to enhancing human capabilities. It’s an exciting time for science and innovation, and I’m eager to see where it leads!
**Editor:** Thank you, Dr. Carter, for sharing your insights with us today! We look forward to following the progress of this incredible project.
**Dr. Carter:** Thank you for having me! I can’t wait to see how people embrace this technology in their lives.
