Little boy’s reaction to getting a Black Panther prosthetic leg is pure #blackboyjoy
A little boy got a special surprise that made him do a little dance and made our hearts sing.
A video went viral of a boy, named as Mikey on Facebook, who got to try on his new prosthetic leg with Black Panther artwork all over it, reports Blavity. Obviously, Mikey was a big Marvel Black Panther fan because when he saw the prosthetic leg, he was overcome with black boy joy.

Mikey’s reaction was priceless as he did a little jig and spinned off his chair excitedly. Thanks to tattoo artist Milton Purnell, the boy’s prosthetic leg got an epic makeover that really made his day.
The heartfelt video has gone viral because truly Purnell is his little brother’s keeper. Whatta’ mighty good man!
That’s the stuff that black boy magic is made of!
That reminds us of the time Michael B. Jordan, who played Killmonger, surprised a little boy with a video that makes us happy cry.
Jordan was all heart and took time out to send Adonis Wolfe a special video message and schooled the second-grader on being his very best in order to grow up and conquer the world.
Adonis was in bed sleeping when Coleman’s phone buzzed and she woke Adonis up to a big surprise: Jordan had recorded a message of encouragement exclusively for him!
“If you work hard, listen to your mother and do all your work, especially your schoolwork,” Jordan says on the video message, “you can be … whatever you want to be — a doctor, engineer, lawyer, mechanic, biologist … . Whatever you put your mind to, you can achieve.”
“Listen to your mother and do all your work, especially your schoolwork,” Jordan said.
We’re not sure what the circumstances are surrounding Mikey’s situation on how he lost his leg, but we hope that Jordan or someone from the Wakanda kingdom sees the video and gives him an extra special surprise too.
