People's spidey-senses are tingling all across the Colombian capital of Bogota when they see the high-flying acrobatics of real-life Spiderman, Freddy Duque. The Colombian street artist swings 'spidey-style' from highway bridges to show off his superhero moves and make some quick cash in the process. His daring pirouettes and upside-down antics cause gasps from motorists as he swings around from a white cloth beneath a bridge with no support cables. The only thing separating him from a quick trip to the pavement are his own hands and feet. Freddy calls himself the "Colombian Spiderman" and has been performing in character for three years in Medellin and six month in Bogota. Juggling and music weren't enough for this acrobat, so he started his daring and shocking routine to make sure that drivers looked up from their commute and watched him risk his life for their entertainment. Freddy's day job doesn't come with benefits, pension, or medical insurance, but it sure beats sitting in a cubicle. What do you think about this death-defying street performance?

The storied Audi R8 took its final laps last week in celebration of its 15 years in the United States and as one of the premier super cars of its time. Since its launch in the U.S. in 2008, the brand halo and pinnacle of performance for Audi achieved iconic status both on and off the track, winning the World Performance Car of the Year in 2008 and in 2016 as well as proving its authenticity on the track by winning every major endurance race around the world. The R8 continues the Audi strategy of proving its race technologies on the track and bringing those technologies to the road. That same strategy will be brought to bear as the brand shifts toward electrified performance with its entry to Formula 1 in 2026.
