The Spider-Man stunt performers in the Avengers Campus rooftop show got a lump of coal in their stockings from Disneyland as they were told to hang up their supersuits just as the Christmas holiday season kicks off at the Anaheim theme parks.
The stunt performers in "The Amazing Spider-Man" show received notice that their final performances would be on Sunday, Nov. 17 in Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure, according to the American Guild of Variety Artists.

The high-intensity stunt performers performed wall-climbing stunts suspended from wires and rooftop parkour jumps atop the Web Slingers attraction building in the former version of the show.
The rooftop stunts have been replaced by a Spidey meet-and-greet character who banters a bit with the crowd below before disappearing from view to make way for the stuntronic performance, according to DAPS Magic.
The Spider-Man stuntronic robot now flies through the skies in Avengers Campus even more times throughout the day, according to Disneyland officials.

"The Amazing Spider-Man" show now features the high-flying Spider-Man stuntronic robot and meet-and-greet super hero character without the Spidey stunt performers that once leaped and tumbled across the rooftop and climbed down a brick wall to the ground.
Walt Disney Imagineering's stuntronic robots can fly through the air, strike aerial poses and calculate trajectories to hit a prescribed target using on-board hardware. The stuntronic robots utilize accelerometers, gyroscopes and laser range finders to rotate in midair and perform aerial tricks after being slung from a wire.
