Here’s the cast of characters:
ALEX: A seven-year old boy born with a partially developed right arm who loves superheroes.
ALBERT MANERO: A college student who builds and donates low-cost 3D-printed bionic limbs to kids around the world.
ROBERT DOWNEY, JR: Tony Stark.
Albert has started a fund called #CollectiveProject, which allows him to make these arms for as many kids as possible.
Mr. Downey, Jr. heard about the project and decided to lend his talents, time and money to the project.
That’s pretty much all you need to know before you watch this video. Be warned though, the little boy, Alex, is adorable in how well he hides his exceptional excitement, even more adorable in his bowtie, and when Robert Downey, Jr. throws his arms up in recognition as Tony Stark, his joy becomes your joy.
All that to say, the overall happiness in this room is palpable.
Also be warned, this video is a barometer for if you have a soul. At the very least, should you feel no feels at the end, you very well might be in need of some serious prayer.
