Who said that superheroes are only fictional characters and don’t exist in real life? Well, this is what most people have been thinking until now but 6-years-old Bridger Walker has proved them all wrong. In an attempt to save his little sister from a ferocious dog, he ended up getting more than 90 stitches on his face. 

But who is this young boy and where is he from?

Bridger walker, a 6-year-old boy from Cheyenne was with his little sister when this incident took place. This unfortunate incident took place on the 9th of July when they went over to their neighbor’s house to play with some friends.

There were several dogs present on their ground at that time. One of Bridger’s close friends casually pointed out the dog and told him that it was a mean dog. As a response to this action, the vicious dog brutally attacked them.

When the German Shepard dog came running to attack Bridger’s little sister, he jumped in between to save her. He defended his 4-year-old sister with such courage that we had only seen in films before.

After the 1-year-old German Shepard bit Bridger’s face and head, he still didn’t stop and began screaming for his sister, telling her to run away quickly. When the dog let go of Bridger, he held his sister’s hand and ran away.

Fortunately, the owner of the dog took notice of this shocking event and procured their dog. He took the siblings to their house and put pressure on his wounded face to control blood loss and called 911 in an emergency.

When Bridger was taken to the hospital, he had to get 90 stitches immediately to close up the wound. This entire process took around 90 minutes to finish and after that, he was allowed to leave the clinic with his parents.

This brave deed of this young little fella has won millions of hearts around the globe and he has received tremendous love from the people.
