This is 99% invisible. I'm Roman Mars.

On the afternoon of June 18th in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Echo Park at the

intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Logan Street,

people were going about their day,

having brunch at trendy cafes and perusing a local bookstore,

when suddenly they saw something extraordinary.

A battle between good and evil.

That's reporter and friend of the show, David Weinberg.

Some of the people who saw the confrontation

probably thought a movie or a commercial was being filmed.

Why else would a guy in a superhero outfit attempt to move a car with his bare hands?

It all started when a woman in a white sheep pulled up to the

traffic light to make a right turn onto Sunset Boulevard. Now it's perfectly

legal to make a right turn on red in California. What you're not supposed to do is block the crosswalk while you

wait your turn. And that's exactly what happened here. It was at this precise

moment that our hero emerged from the shadows to save the day.

He was wearing a black and white striped cape and a mask.

This caped crusader bravely approached the front of the car, placed his hands on the hood, and started pushing.

My name is Piatonito. I'm the pedestrian luchador vigilante of the streets, fighting for pedestrian

rights. El Pa Tonito.

He's a real life superhero.

Yeah, I don't like too much the word superhero.
