It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a team of window washers dressed as comic book super heroes!
Here’s a feel good story for you to tuck in your breast pocket. Earlier this week, a team of four window washers in Pittsburgh suited up for their regular duties of keeping the windows of the Pittsburgh Children’s Hospital free and clear, but this time? This time they strapped themselves into some of the most iconic comic book hero get-ups to get the job done; Captain America, Batman, Spiderman, and Superman. As they rappelled down the 12-story building, the eyes of the children on the other side of the windows widened, leaving little to the imagination on just. how. rad. this quirky feat was proving to be. Passersby also took note of the quad of super cleaners and surely it would not be a sight one, young or old, would soon forget.
My Spidey sense tells me there’s something very different about this day on the job.
Heart strings officially being tugged this way and that at just how thoughtful and fantastic this whole attempt at spirit-lifting truly is. The company that handles those mighty fine super heroes windows for the hospital thinks this will be a great treat to do annually. And after the internet waves of unanimous “Awwwwwww!”s this approach has received, I don’t blame them one single bit.
I just hope that we stick with the svelte, limber washers we’ve seen here today and not downgrade in the years to come. I mean, for the children. We must think of the children. I know I would be absolutely terrified, age, condition, or otherwise, to draw the shades and happen upon something like this:
Gilbert Grape ate what?! Answer: Spiderman.
To save you from nightmares of superheroes cannibalizing other superheroes (I’m sorry and you’re welcome), let us now watch the heartwarming video of Spiderman And His Amazing Squeegees.
