    Fun story behind this picture. Apparently this dude would go to hospitals as Batman to entertain kids. No clue whether he still does it as this picture is old enough to have army recruiters considering pitches.

      He died on his way from a hospital or something iirc, such sad.

      On August 16, 2015, Robinson was returning from a weekend festival in South Charleston, West Virginia, when his Batmobile broke down on Interstate 70 near the community of Big Pool, Maryland. As he was checking the engine, the driver of a Toyota Camry struck his custom Batmobile from behind. The Batmobile struck Robinson, who was pronounced dead at the scene.
