This 'Iron Man' spoof is a comedic adaptation of the 'Iron Man' shooting process before the effects are added in. The actors use a paper plate with the 'Iron Man' mask drawn onto it as the helmet, and [cardboard as the suit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-diorama). They pretend to jump out the window, run down the street in the epic helicopter scene and take the 'Iron Man' suit out of the suitcase.

I think this is the funniest 'Iron Man' spoof ever, just because of the actors' commitment.
