Superhero Window Cleaners Surprise Young Patients

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- They are faster than a speeding bullet and more powerful than a locomotive!

But these superheroes are not leaping tall buildings. They are climbing the walls to clean the windows at Children's Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota in Minneapolis.

Batman and Superman, with the help of Spiderman and Miss Incredible, go to work once a year. It is one way to visit sick kids inside the hospital.

"It's great. They love to see the super heroes pop in front of the windows when they're not expecting it, and it's a simple thing that makes everyone smile," Acme Window Cleaning's Jeremy Suelter said.

Acme Window Cleaning Company has had a contract with Children's Hospitals in Minneapolis and St. Paul for years.
