Look, up in the pub… it’s Superman!!!
You know, when you dress like Superman, sometimes you just might have to do some crime-fighting. A man in England while eating breakfast at a local pub heard screams from a woman who was being robbed. At that point, he felt “something needed to be done” and jumped into action.
