A father created a special Iron Man costume for his son, who has been in hospital since being born premature in July, to make him feel brave.

 

In a beautiful video uploaded to YouTube, Eric Hart shared a video of his son Collier wearing the tiny costume for Halloween.

 

Speaking to Today.com after the video was uploaded, Eric said that he wanted to give his son some semblance of normality, and make him feel brave in the costume.

 

“I came up with Iron Man because he’s been hooked up to all those machine and wires, and that’s similar to what Iron Man went through,” he said.

 

While Eric merely uploaded the video to share with family and friend, he said he has been overwhelmed by the messages of support he has received from people all over the world.

 

“It just resonates with them, of being able to find a small moment of joy during months of physical and spiritual exhaustion,” he added.
