When the scene which sees Tobey Maguire's Peter Parker giving that professional wrestling stuff a try during Sam Raimi's first Spider-Man comes up in conversation, most folks will be quick to remember the brilliant performance given by real-life wrestling icon 'Macho Man' Randy Savage.

But before Bonesaw McGraw was ready to murder Spidey in the middle of the squared-circle, a wonderful wrestling extra came along and offered another comical moment in the wake of being sent flying by the aforementioned Macho Saw.

As Parker makes his way to the ring for his debut as "The Amazing Spider-Man" to the sound of boos, Bonesaw's last victim, a luchador who'd been smashed through a table, let Peter know what hell could be heading his way.

"Oh, my god! Oh, my legs. Oh, god. I can't feel my legs!" were the memorable words that left Pete wondering whether he'd made a monumental mistake choosing to take a few bumps for some dollar.

Macho Man and Maguire certainly provide their fair share of amusing moments throughout this much-loved wrasslin'/superhero mash-up, but it's this extra's superb commitment to flailing around on a stretcher like he'd just lost a fight with King Kong that still sticks out as one of the funniest of the entire sequence.
