By now, we are sure you have heard the story of a brave six-year-old boy Bridger Walker, who in order to save his sister from a dog attack got 90 stitches after being bitten on his face. "If someone had to die, I thought it should be me," he later said, and won the hearts of many people across the globe.
Soon, Captain America star Chris Evans sent a video message to him and promised to send him a Captain America shield. "I'm going to track down your address and I'm going to send you an authentic Captain America shield because pal, you deserve it," he said.
Now, Iron Man AKA Robert Downey Jr has also sent out a video message for the little real-life superhero.
"Bridger, you¡¯re a rockstar," RDJ says and promises to give him a better gift than the shield.
"I hear [Captain America] sent a shield your way. I¡¯m going to do one better, you call me on your next birthday. I¡¯ve got something special for you," he says.
Spider-Man AKA Tom Holland had also praised the young boy and invited him to the sets of Spider-Man 3.
¡°We¡¯re going to be shooting ¡®Spider-Man 3¡¯ and if you ever want to come to set and hang out and see the Spider-Man suit up close, you¡¯re always welcome,¡± Holland said.
Earlier, Mark Ruffalo, Brie Larson, Robbie Amell and Grant Gustin had also commented on Walker¡¯s original post and called him a superhero.
"People who put the well-beings of others in front of themselves are the most heroic and thoughtful people I know. I truly respect and admire your courage and your heart. Real courage isn¡¯t dominating people or fighting against people or walking around like a tough guy. Real courage is knowing what is right to do and doing it even when it might end up hurting you somehow. You are more of man than many, many I have seen or known," Ruffalo wrote.
