About
The Spiderman Heart is a hand gesture where participants hold their hands in front of them, palm-forward, then make them resemble Spider-Man's hands when shooting webs (middle and ring fingers down, thumbs, forefingers and pinkies up) then put them together and wrap their pinkies around their forefingers to make a heart. A trend focused on the gesture became popularized on TikTok in June 2023 following the release of Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse, often set to the I'mma Do My Own Thing Playboi Carti remix.
Origin
On April 7th, 2023, TikToker[1] @tingting_laii posted a video sharing several hand gestures she learned while in Korea, the fifth being the "Spider-Man heart" (shown below). The gesture is performed by making each of your hands resemble Spider-Man's hands when shooting webs (middle and ring fingers down, thumbs, forefingers and pinkies up) then crossing your forefingers and hooking your pinkies around the tips of the forefingers. The video gained over 17.2 million views in two months.
