Mr. T brought boy out of coma

Last Update: 3/28 2:56 pm

Former The A-Team star Mr. T once stunned a sick child's family by bringing him out of a coma - after doctors begged the actor for help.

The poorly kid fell unconscious in Detroit, Michigan in the mid-1980s - and the only physical movement he made was in response to hearing Mr. T's name.

And when the mohawked star was in town, he stopped by the hospital to visit the ill boy - with miraculous results.

He tells Britain's Empire magazine, "His family put toys around him and one of them was a Mr. T doll. And whenever my name came up, the boy moved his arm."

"Somebody told the doctors I was in town, so they called me down there. I closed the curtains and prayed. Then, as I was walking down the hall, the kid suddenly came out of the coma and hollered out."

"That was my supernatural moment."

1. Apparently, he performed the opposite of "pitying the fool."

That's exactly how powerful Mr. T is.

4. Mr. T had a magical effect on one of my cats years ago.

Kitty Richard would come RUNNING into the living room when he heard the theme music of The A Team on TV. He would sit and watch, and seemed especially fascinated by Mr. T. He sat through an entire episode once, only looking away from the TV when the commercials were on.

He was an amazingly smart cat. And his eyes about bugged out whenever Mr. T would appear and speak.

5. Moral: If Mr. T tells you to wake up, you damned well BETTER wake up, fool!

I've heard he's really a quietly religious, soft-spoken person. Not that he STILL couldn't break off your arm and insert it into one of your body orifices if he wanted to...
