So is there any other method that humans could climb a vertical wall?

Interesting. Coincidentally, I watched a video on home made 'gecko tape' just yesterday:

All I get from this is that spiderman's mass must be very much less than the average human.

The world is as the world is. Since we all know Spiderman exists, perhaps we should study how he climbs walls?
