Does Spider-Man save his girlfriend?
For years, it was vaguely rumored that Spider-Man’s girlfriend, Gwen Stacy, died after falling from a bridge. But what really happened?
It was, therefore, a huge success when the mystery of Gwen’s death was solved: some “villain” had thrown her off the Washington Bridge, and the man endowed with spider-like abilities had stopped her fall with his miraculous web. It was calculated that if she weighed about 50 kilograms and had already fallen 100 meters, the net would have brought her to a complete stop in half a second from a speed of about 140 kilometers per hour. A deceleration reaching 10 times the acceleration due to gravity. And that was enough to break the girl’s neck. So Spider-Man himself was indirectly responsible for her death, and many people then noticed a SNAP next to the girl’s neck in the image, confirming that the designers shared the same view.
