This is the shocking moment a thug in a Spider-Man outfit punches a female Asda worker in the face while a prankster mob storms the store to ’cause chaos for likes’.
Footage shows the female employee grappling with a girl before the costumed man lands a kick and a punch – knocking her straight to the floor of the supermarket branch in Clapham, south London.
The clips are understood to have been linked to a verified account by a rapper named Tyrone, who recently won a local hero award from BBC Music.
The TikTok stunt was mentioned by a group called Live Madness Replays, who describe themselves on Instagram as carrying out pranks ‘for entertainment purposes only’, and appear to have since taken down the clips.
Live Madness directed its 1,834 followers to a ‘burner account’, which has since been removed, which was said to be hosting the live feed.
Five people have been arrested and remain in custody following the incident, which left six people injured, said police.

A 37-year-old man, 35-year-old man, 18-year-old woman and 17-year-old girl were also arrested on suspicion of affray and violent disorder.
It was also confirmed that a woman in her 20s was taken to hospital with a minor injury.
In a separate clip of the same incident, a massive brawl can be seen breaking out towards the entrance of the store.
One thug can be seen brandishing a pole, while shoppers are heard screaming in the background.
