A Father Helps His Blind Son See Darth Vader With Some Help From The 501st

Posted by Dustin on November 9, 2014 at 06:03 PM CST


Here is a heart warming story I recently saw on the 501st Facebook page, and had to share.

At Comic-Con Russia, a father brought in his blind son to "see" Darth Vader with his fingertips. The young man carefully moved his hands across the helmet, armor pieces, and lightsaber while his father connected what he was touching to what he knew about Darth Vader from the Star Wars story. The bustling crowd that was waiting in line for photographs grew respectfully quiet while this happened, and as the father and son walked away, the onlookers burst into applause.
