RALEIGH -- It's not something you see every day -- superheroes climbing hospital windows.

But on Tuesday, Batman, Spiderman and Iron Man made a surprise appearance at WakeMed Children's Hospital, washing windows while putting a smile on children's faces.

A mom of one the patients tells us this is a great way to cheer up the kiddos staying there.

"I think it's very important it would make me feel good if i was a kid and i was in the hospital. it would make me feel good," said Amiya McEachern, the mother of a patient. 

WakeMed officials say this is just part of their commitment to keeping kids in the hospital comfortable while undergoing treatment.
