Will Smith Surprises Viral Video Classmates for Their Kindness

Hello. Hello how are you? How are you? I'm fine. Good. Alright, who's who? Which one are you? kristopher. kristopher. Michael Todd. Miguel. Antwain Antwain. Well, whose idea was it? It was my idea. Your idea. Yes ma'am. OK. So you saw that-- this is obviously the start of the school year. Yes ma'am. I just started. Do you know Miguel? No ma'am. I didn't know anything about Mike. No. You just... have you seen him being bullied or heard about it? So what happened was that we were in the same class. When school started, the first week, I still had a temporary schedule.

And they were making jokes about him. And I was laughing too. And then one time I used to go home and think about it, I wanted to apologize to Mike. But I wanted to give him something in an apology. Good. Okay, so you talked to Antwain about this. And Antwain said, I want to go in. I want to help, right? Yes ma'am. OK. And how do you all know each other? We play soccer together. Play soccer together, it's okay. So all of you are popular. Not precisely. Good. You play football. Alright. And then, Michael, all of a sudden, these two guys you don't know come up and decide to give you new clothes.

How did you feel? I was surprised, shocked, happy, trying to keep a straight face instead of showing my smile. It was the best day of my life, because they intimidated me. Yes. I was bullied my whole life. So you were bullied your whole life, and all of a sudden, out of the blue, the

kindness

of these guys... and you really didn't want to film it. But someone, just because you didn't do this for attention, who filmed this? Well, some... well, we have a friend. He always has his phone, walks and records things at school. He has seen us walking towards Michael's third period class.

And he started… he was like, what are you all doing? And we said, we are... we're not going to say anything. We just pulled Michael out of class. Then people started leaving class. And 30 minutes later, we received the

video

. He had posted it on Facebook. I didn't expect it to go

viral

. I wanted it to make a difference, to stop people from bullying. Well well. And he did, because he was seen so many times by so many people, and that's why you're here. Because I didn't just reply, a lot of celebrities looked at this and said, this is amazing.

We want to reward these guys and point this out, enlighten you. So umm Will Smith, come out. Hey! Oh hello. What's happening. Hello Will. Elena. Hello Will. Thank you. Thank you. It's okay Will. I can't wait to see the new movie. Oh, thank you, yes, yes. Gemini man, thank you. It's very cool. this is great. I'm trying to keep my voice normal. I saw the

video

. And me and Jada were sitting. It was like, that, that's fantastic. And there's no way I'm letting this go without making contact with these kids. And what you did seemed small to you.

But I promise you, this is exactly how human beings are supposed to interact with each other. And it's not, it's not more complicated than that. Someone is going through a bad time, and you help him. It's that easy. Yes, it doesn't matter if you know them or not. It doesn't matter if you know them. People-- Everyone is suffering. You

will

not pass by a single person who is not having a difficult time. And you guys saw that, and you decided to help. And the really great thing was the autocorrect too. You saw that you were laughing and that you were a part of it, and you stopped and corrected yourself.

You guys-- That's great. --know everything. That's big, yeah yeah. It's so big. It's okay. Let's take a break. More after this. Kris is playing so well. It's like, this happens all the time. Yes. This is nothing big for me. I can't wait to go back to Memphis. I can't wait... That's right, yes. --as soon as I get home. Alright. Will and I love what you did, obviously. I can't thank you enough for being an example to all the kids, all the adults... Yes -- who need to pay attention to help others. And Will has something for you.

Yeah, just because it was around the clothes, and I thought it was cool. So I just want everyone to have some gear. I have a little bit of a few things here. What we have? We get it back there. Get it out. I got you some equipment. I have a few things for you. I got you all a couple of things, yeah. That's a great thing. It's a... This is a special state-of-the-art material. It hasn't come out yet. So this is a merchandising line that I'm doing. I'm doing a secret drop. Well, it's not a secret anymore.

I just announced it. But I'm making a drop. So it's something special. And also, I talked to the people at New Balance, and this is an act of

kindness

that I don't want to be forgotten anytime soon, right? So everyone at New Balance agreed that we're going to get gear for everyone at his school, all 600 kids at his school. Alright. I know, yes. I also want to help. And you know I have a long-time relationship with Shutterfly. Shutterfly loves what you did. So each of you

will

receive a check for $10,000. Yes. Here you go, boys. There you go.

I want to thank Wanda Sykes and Will Smith. Have a wonderful weekend. Be kind to each other.
