J.J. Watt Dressed As Batman To Visit A Children’s Hospital, Continues To Be Awesome

There’s not much that J.J. Watt can’t do, it seems. He’s accomplished some seemingly superhuman things despite his very simple and fragile human body, and he fills it all with an immense amount of food. Now he’s taking the idea of being a superhero to the next level by dressing as Batman and visiting some kids at Texas Children’s Hospital.

The Houston Texans posted video of Watt going full Batman with the kids, playing games and busting out his best Christian Bale impression. After he was done, he whipped off the mask and posed for some photos with the folks in attendance.

The only questionable act is taking off the mask in front of all those people and cameras. Now that his secret identity is out, I look for Philip Rivers to come to Houston and hold the city hostage with Joker Venom. Watt can handle himself, but can he protect his entire city from the madness? We’ll have to wait and find out, I guess. Until then, you can enjoy the Texans video of this visit over on their website (autoplay is a poor choice) and you can see some local news footage below. I think the voice is really what sells the entire thing. If he just did J.J. Watt in a Batman costume, it wouldn’t be as magical.
