    I do have some thoughts and potential counter-arguments, but I may just bring those up when we talk later.

    It's kind of funny that if The Shadow-
    (the character that inspired Batman and Batman was originally a ripoff of, before he became his own character)
    -was real, he would have much better chance of hiding his identity than his costumed successors, bro only has select few people knowing his secret identity, he switches identities and has a person that he can use as his double.

    This pretty much covers all the bases that I wanted the original video to cover in a understandable manner.

    My opinion is that if you have peter parker powers people will catch you but if you have miles powers than you can make it out without people won't found out

      Perhaps, depending on what you do. You could probably get away for a while, but I feel like it's only a matter of time before some organization comes after you, and you're more likely to face a Bolivar Trask than a Nick Fury.

    While I agree on the blood and potential planning of villains as means of revealing the heroes identity, i disagree about there being cameras everywhere making it impossible to hide. Because criminals hide their identities literally all the time despite all the things you listed so it's clearly doable.

      Without getting too into the matter, I would argue that there's sadly just less of an attempt to catch the criminals. Stores forbid employees from confronting them and the laws in some states have been changed to allow them to steal without being arrested and prosecuted below a certain monetary threshold.

      @@iamxeracon That doesn't really have anything to do with what I said. I'm referring to situations where police are actively trying to find someone and are completely unable to.
      Kidnappers, murderers and all sorts like that have done it multiple times.

    Collecting biological samples would only be helpful if you also have access to every civilian's medical info to compare it to. Think about it; you have Spider-man's blood, but how do you figure out that it matches Peter Parker's?
    Regarding the example of Batman/Bruce Wayne being out of town, in Batman's case at least, he doesn't usually operate publicly as Batman and Bruce Wayne outside of Gotham at the same time. For example, if Bruce Wayne is known to be vacationing in Paris, he may have Dick or someone else stand in as Batman in Gotham. If he's working on a Batman-related mission while abroad, he'll usually do it covertly, maybe not even in costume.
