Daniel Keyte is a 7-year-old who has been diagnosed with cystic fibrosis and who views Iron Man as a personal hero.

Daniel's mother, Vicky, recently posted a photo of Daniel to Instagram and described how he had been bullied in school for having cystic fibrosis, and how Daniel's love of Iron Man had helped him through those difficult times.

He ... wants nothing more to meet his idol Robert Downey Jr (aka iron man) as he has managed to get past the bullies he faces from day to day by telling them the he too has a extra special port in his chest much like iron man has his arc reactor, I am sharing this in hope that mr stark (as Daniel calls him out of the suit) could find a way to contact me on here as Daniel could really do with a little lift at the moment after a child at school has told him that all children with cf die. If this reaches him and Daniel could get a reply I hope that it could help him through his stay in hospital as it is starting to take its toll on him.

The Internet used its superpowers for good, and word spread until Daniel's wish reached the ear of Mr. Iron Man himself, Robert Downey Jr.

RDJ posted an undeniably amazing pic of himself in a tiger onesie (because that's just what you do when you're RDJ), and offered Daniel an amazing dream come true:

Mr. Stark here. This is for Daniel (@envy_coatings) who was having a rough day recently. When I’m in the dumps, I’ve found this little getup to be helpful. P.S. Would you like to come to the LA premiere of Captain America: Civil War as my guest? If so, have your people call my people. All the best.

Vicky posted on Instagram the next day, absolutely stunned and touched by RDJ's offer. Daniel will indeed be attending the Captain America: Civil War premiere, and Vicky says he will even be donning a special tuxedo for the occasion.

I want to say a huge thank you to everyone that helped to make this possible and a massive thank you to @robertdowneyjr for Daniels invite to join you in LA, we physically can not believe it and can't ever imagine a way to thank everyone enough, I will keep everyone updated on the build up to the big day on Daniels progress and his day to day going ons and of course his tuxedo fitting that he has asked for today as he wants to fit in like a real star (not that he is not the biggest star in my eyes) thank you everyone this is by far the best wake up call ever when I found Roberts reply (I was a blubbering wreck)

Just goes to show you: Iron Man be tough on the exterior, but inside he's a total softie.

On an important side note, Robert Downey Jr. needs to team up his costume with Channing Tatum's, because they could make the perfect Pooh and Tigger duo. And by "perfect" we mean "creepiest."
