Have You Seen This? The Avengers are assembling at pools near you

THE PIER — Everyone wants to be a superhero, but not everyone has the magical editing skills to make it happen.

Sometimes, a group of slightly dramatic friends, a cool beachside background, and a few clever special effects are all you need to assemble the Avengers.

This video is a stylish longshot that puts some Marvel montages to shame. As the camera pans, out of the water and onto the dock comes Doctor Strange, then Captian America, Spider-Man, Iron Man, Black Panther, Hawkeye, and finally, Thor — all in epic superhero pose.

In a world saturated with superhero costumes, T-shirts, merchandise and almost any combination thereof, new trends can be hard to come by. Nevertheless, poolside hero parodies with dramatic music and makeshift props prove that creative fandom is anything but dead.

Apparently, there are thousands of similar iterations of the trend, from countless cultures and creative minds. Here are a few more favorites:

Who needs a radioactive spider or super serum to be powerful when the magic really lies in catchy music and fancy lighting? Fans everywhere are catching on, and with great editing power comes great responsibility.

So grab your friends, get to the pool, and Avengers, assemble!
