Eddie Izzard is my hero. Seriously. I am so impressed when celebrities go out of their way to do the right thing for their fans.
North Londoner Will Pike sadly became a victim of the Mumbai terror attacks in November. His hotel was ambushed by terrorists while him and his girlfriend Kelly Doyle were on vacation at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel.
While recovering from his injuries in a South London hospital after falling from a makeshift rope he made from his bedsheets to attempt an escape. The 28-year-old broke three of his vertebrae, both his arms and shattered his pelvis.
Due to his injuries he had to give up his tickets for Eddie Izzard’s comedy show in London last month. So his dad wrote to Eddie to see if he would be so kind and write his son a letter to cheer him up.
Eddie could have written a note to make this guys day but he chose to do something bigger. He showed up at the hospital and performed his entire 90 minute show for him!
It’s so easy to talk badly about celebrities because, well they do a lot of stupid things but every now and again they surprise you with a story like this!
When Eddie was contacted for comment he simply stated it was a personal matter and declined to comment further.
