  • Batkid: The Official Make-A-Wish Story
    After months of planning "Wish Kid Becomes Batkid" finally became a reality on November 15th and took San Francisco and the world by storm! And now the official video has been released.
    Hitting the streets in San Francisco with a police escort they filmed caper after caper in real time in order to keep the experience authentic for five year old Miles. There were no second takes. The characters, the coordination team and everyone involved had to make it great the first time. All of the cameras had to be in place, and all the special effects including the pyrotechnics had to be done live once and only once.

    Ya know, as much as humans can sometimes be dicks- we lie, we cheat, we steal, we kill, etc. Sometimes people can be pretty awesome. To see an entire city do something like this for a little kid... saying my faith in humanity being restored is an understatement.

      To say we have done good or bad is inherently an opinion. We have done what is in our nature. Ultimately it has been about survival, we tend to celebrate that.

    I was there that day. I was among the thousands at Civic Center cheering on the Batkid. Not only did I get to see him in person, I got to feel the energy of so many people sharing excitement in something so great. It reminded me that one thing we always take for granted is the kindness and caring nature of most people. To be surrounded by so many people with a common love for making a brave child's dream come true was indescribable. It truly restored my faith in humanity.

  • @Masterash01
    @Masterash01 10 років тому +57

    What people need to realize is that a stunt like this isn't just changing the life of a little boy who wanted to be Batman, it changes the lives of everyone involved. All those people who can now say they were there when San Francisco transformed into Gotham City for a day will remember this for the rest of their lives.
    Not only that, but it also gives hope and courage to every young child who is battling a life-threatening disease. It sends out a message, a message that says; Keep strong, keep fighting, and never give up.
    Something like this just goes to show how selfless and caring human beings can really be. How many people turned up and lined the streets to support that young boy?
    Not only that, but it's because of the internet, social media and the interactivity we have today that made this entire spectacle more than anyone ever expected it to be.
    Things like this should happen more often, and it's a real shame that they don't.

    • @KitWriter
      @KitWriter 10 років тому

      Masterash01 totally agreed! The people involved needed this more than the boy. People needed a happy story with a happy ending, and this little kid is the real hero here. He pushed through being exhausted half-way through the day, and kept going. He put his personal struggles aside and gave people a happy ending that we all needed. That's the definition of a hero.
      In a huge way, millions of people needed this kid way more than he needed us. And he delivered the way only a hero can.

      let's face it, it's a very expensive project. It would be nice if they could do it for all kids with cancer, but it takes planning and money and many people. But it does bring people together even if it only happens once or twice in a year/decade.

    I still cry like a little girl when I see the Batkid videos. Make-A-Wish, along with a whole city, came through for this kid and a couple, who happen to be rich, paid for it all, not taxpayers. This has nothing to do with race, with social status, it's just a really awesome wish coming true for a sick child. I'm sure the boy and his parents did not expect it to become the huge event that it did but this shows us what humanity can really be like. I'm from California and San Francisco just made me proud. This should cause everyone to put aside all their petty differences and just applaud such a fighter of a child.

    I am a pediatric ICU nurse and I just started volunteering with Make a Wish Foundation. I tend to see these children at their most vulnerable, sickest times when they are in the ICU, so volunteering to me is so I can see the other side of these children. I love the joy and the fact that these wish kids get to be a kid for once without having to worry about their illness. The anticipation leading up to the wish gives them encouragement, strength and something amazing to look forward to and improves their health through this process. This story was so heartfelt and the support behind it reminds me how many wonderful people we have supporting our youth. This is the kind of news that needs to be reported, shared and acknowledged because this is what matters.

    How can people dislike a beautiful thing? This was meant to for fill a wish of a CHILD! It's meant to bring a smile to their face while they are battling the most horrible thing a child could go through! No matter the location, a child is a child. If people have the money to make one kid's dream come true, respect it. What are most people doing? Sitting behind a computer screen, complaining about life. I'm glad there are organizations like these to keep a child smiling and hopeful. Life is beautiful, and most of us that are healthy don't see the beauty in it.

Batkid is just one of those wishes that came true. This runs by donations that u can make and rich people and corporations make. Please don't criticize unless you know exactly how this work and how it makes a family feels when they tell u at the hospital, your sick child gonna get a wish.
