I'm sure he skipped the helmet so he'd take a better picture. Note carefully where his eyes are focused, on the camera person, not the ground or the bike that's about to land on him.

But, Martin is right, some people are just too stupid to protect!

KIDS FIRST!® Expert Comments, Ranny's Picks & Dr. Toy:
Gets kids to discuss ways to deal with bullying at school.
KIDS FIRST!® Adult Juror Comments:
Kids use their "super powers" and huge imagination to fight against real life issues of bullying. They show us how being a bystander is just an opportunity to make a choice: to help or to ignore. By bonding together they effectively take the power out of the hands of kids making bad choices and face their fears as a team. This is a powerful message, empowering kids to help each other and know when it is right to ask for help from adults. Having an elementary-school aged kid myself, I know this would make a huge impression on him, but it's clear that having other kids to back you up can make all the difference. I hope every school in America will show this to their students and staff, even parents. It makes me feel as if every child can be a hero - and now I know the perfect after-school program: superhero workshop!

KIDS FIRST!® KID Juror Comments:

This may not be the kids' all-time favorite movie, but it does get them talking! It made them think and discuss ways to deal with bullying at school. "I never really thought that it was bad to just stand by and do nothing, but now I know it's almost as bad as being the bully." It seemed to change their outlook, and that's a great thing! Most of the boys like it when Freddy stood up to the bully to help his friend. They weren't sure how realistic it is, but thought it was "cool." "My favorite part is how they work together and show examples of what can be done." "I was bullied last year and some friends stood up for me, so I know what it is like." "This film should be shown in schools."
