‘Heroic’ waiter gives new plate of food to hungry child who tried to eat leftovers

Waiter gives food to hungry child

In the video, a woman sitting in a restaurant booth gets up and leaves her half-finished plate of food on the table.

A young boy wearing jumper far too big for him then runs over. He had already been eyeing up the food from one of the booths behind.

He picks up a fork to begin eating the leftover bits, but the waiter comes over and takes it away before he has a chance to dig in.

The hungry child rubs his hand over his eyes and gets up in disappointment, thinking he’s missed out the scraps.

However, the waiter then returns with a whole fresh plate of food from the kitchen and a drink to go with it and a huge smile spreads over the boy’s face.

Twitter users say he’s a ‘hero’

In the comments, people are calling the waiter a ‘hero’ and saying the video has restored their faith in humanity.

One person wrote: “We still have heroes alive. There’s still an atom of humanity found in the world.”

“Now that’s heartwarming,” said another.

A third person added: “Makes me happy to see there are true heroes still out there like this gentleman!”

“We need more people like him in the world,” someone else said.

Another tweeted: “Not every hero wears a cape!”

People think the clip is scripted

Some are suggesting the video is scripted as it seems strange that the camera is in the perfect place to film the interaction.

“Do they really want us to believe this is real?” someone said.

However, others say even if it is scripted, it’s still a heartwarming interaction people can repeat in real life.

Another added: “This is fake, but we still have kind people in the world, people who do this or other things to help.”
