Batkid spent Friday restoring peace and order to the people of San Francisco / aka Gotham City for the day. All in a day's work. Everyone rejoices!
Underneath the mask is a five year old boy named Miles, who's currently battling leukemia. His biggest wish was to be Batman for a day. So the Make-a-Wish Foundation set about to make that happened. They got more than they bargained for when more than 10,000 strangers volunteered to make Miles' dream come true.

By evening, more than 10,000 Instagram photos had been posted with the hashtag #SFBatKid. We've got a few below, but do check out the rest on Instagram.
