A year ago, we posted a video of a man who was able to use the suction of a vacuum cleaner to climb the side of a building. More recently, British schoolboy Hibiki Kono decided to build one for himself:

The lad, who is a big fan of the superhero, spent five months designing and making the gadget. He attached two giant suckerpads to the 1,400-watt cleaners - and uses the vacuum suction to grip the wall and support his weight.

The lad, who attends King's College School in Cambridge, said: "I used to dress up as Spiderman when I was younger and I love all the films.
