My Secret Identity was a television series in the 1980s starring Jerry O'Connell as 14-year-old Andrew Clements, who, one day while looking for his friend, Dr. Benjamin Jeffcoate (Derek McGrath), trips and is hit by a radiation beam, causing him to develop superpowers. He uses these abilities to fight crime and to help people, but hides them from all of his family and friends with the exception of Jeffcoate.

[edit] Powers
Initially, Clements powers include superhuman speed, invulnerability, and levitation (He can not technically fly — he can make himself weightless but lacks physical means to propel himself. Clements regularly carries small aerosol spray containers in his pocket to achieve this). Later in the series, after once again inadvertently being struck by another ray created by Dr. Jeffcoate, the photon beam, Andrew developes superhuman strength.[1] Andrew's powers would continue to grow and develop to the point where he would be able to propel himself in flight without the use of spray cans.
