When people hear the words “Super Hero” they instantly start thinking about comic books such as Spider Man, and Superman. Purely fictional characters with very non human abilities and hearts of gold. But even though we’ll never have a Spider Man or a Superman in our life time, there are actually real people donning costumes, and protecting the community. I’m sure you might have seen a glimpse of these real life superheroes on the news, and most likely there is a sense of mockery in the reporting.

Well Peter Tangen, a photographer well known for his work on the Spider Man movie posters, wanted to honor these real life superheroes. His series of photos titled “The Real Life Super Hero Project” portrays these good Samaritans in a very Super Heroic Way.

My opinion is that these are some awesome photos, and they look nothing less than epic. Way better than the superhero wedding, that was just pure gay, and those guys are wanna be super heroes. These guys are the real deal, and they risk their lives to protect the community. Hats off to you Peter Tangen, no one could have pulled the “Real Life Super Hero Project” better than him.

Enjoy some sample from the “Real Life Super Hero Project“, and leave us some feedback about what you think about it.
