In the bleakest of times, some people rise from the darkness to lead the way through the macabre–those people are called heroes. On July 9th<\/sup>, that is exactly what a young boy by the name of Bridger<\/strong> achieved when he risked his life to save his younger sister from a dog attack. His aunt posted the story to social media, and many, including some of The Avengers<\/em><\/strong> cast, have reached out to show their love and support for the new hero on the block.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nikki Walker, the boy\u2019s aunt, posted his story on Instagram and tagged The Avengers<\/em> actors. The hashtag #bridgerstrong<\/strong> began to trend, and many people and celebrities showed up in full force to support the young hero. The celebrities that have taken to social media to support Bridger include Chris Evans, Tom Holland, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, <\/strong>and Iron Man <\/strong>himself, Robert Downey Jr<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
