Cops conveying the important message amid pandemic
The video humorously conveys a very important message with the aim to urge people to stay at home in order to battle the novel coronavirus. The video begins with the man asking spiderman as to why he is using the lift instead of web-shooters. To which the fictional superhero replies that it is lockdown time and if he disobeys the police, they will lash at him. He further explains how the police will use a slingshot to hit him.
