Little kids grow up watching and listening to stories about superheroes and idolize the brave people who risk their own lives to protect the innocent from the evil in this world. So when a 2-year-old little boy spotted these real life superheroes, he did the first thing that came to mind.
After landing at the airport late one night in Houston along with the UNC men’s basketball team, passengers were greeted by a line of on-duty soldiers each holding giant American flags. Yet unlike the other kids who were too shy and afraid to approach the intimidating soldiers, 2-year-old Sawyer ran straight towards them.
At first, Sawyer was only going to say hello to one of the soldiers, but after shaking hands with the first, he decided he couldn’t just ignore the rest.
Other kids couldn’t understand why he would run up to scary-looking strangers, but Sawyer recognized them instantly and wanted to thank each one as they knelt down to greet their excited fan.
Watch the entire video below to see the adorable moment Sawyer realizes he’s in the presence of real life heroes.
