Mr. T brought boy out of coma - Yahoo! News UK

text:

Former The A-Team star Mr. T once stunned a sick child's family by bringing him out of a coma - after doctors begged the actor for help.

(Advertisement)

The poorly kid fell unconscious in Detroit, Michigan in the mid-1980s - and the only physical movement he made was in response to hearing Mr. T's name.

And when the mohawked star was in town, he stopped by the hospital to visit the ill boy - with miraculous results.

He tells Empire magazine, "His family put toys around him and one of them was a Mr. T doll. And whenever my name came up, the boy moved his arm.

"Somebody told the doctors I was in town, so they called me down there. I closed the curtains and prayed. Then, as I was walking down the hall, the kid suddenly came out of the coma and hollered out.

"That was my supernatural moment."

Did anyone ever see his reality show? I think it lasted two episodes. Best show I've ever seen. They would find people with problems, like business problems, and he'd go in and fix them. One episode this guy had trouble with his car business or something, and Mr. T goes in and kicks ass and sells cars.

Maybe they should get Mr. T on Wall Street.

Wall St? Fuck lets get him for president!! I sure as hell wouldn't attack a country that had Mr. T for president!

Malakriss · 03-30-2008, 04:52 AM

Would we simply call him President T then? Would we have to officially rename ass kickings to T-bags?

This was recently?

If the kid went into a coma in the mid-1980's, and its 2008 now...

Not really a kid anymore is he? Well physically not, anyway.

Yeah, he "hollered out", something like this.

"OH DEAR GOD, THE PAIN! 18 years of atrophied muscles. SHUT THE FUCK UP NURSE! Did you ever go to sleep as a child dreaming of Big-Bird and woke up with a beard and a boner?"

What's next? HIV?

"I pity the fool who doesn't raise their T-cells with Mr. T's vitamins!"

I read it that he was retelling a story of something that happened in the 80's.

Aha, that sounds like what Hard Gay (not what it sounds like) does in Japan -- practically acting like a modern day hero by helping people in need. It's a shame T's show reality show didnt last that long.

Abysmal · 03-30-2008, 07:27 PM

the premise of the show sounds great, but nobody wants to watch t helping people. if t went around yelling at children and fighting hobos it would have lasted.
