Montreal Boy gets custom made costumes to fit over his wheelchair

What's Trending with MJ

A fifteen-year-old Montreal boy always has the coolest Halloween costumes on the block, thanks to a local handyman.

Emile Laliberte uses a wheelchair, and this year, his costume will be out of this world when he goes as the Mars rover.

Thanks to the time and generosity of handyman Robert Murphy and his group, Duct Tapers Anonymous, Emile has been rolling in style for a few years.

The first costume they built for Emile was in 2017 when he wanted to go as a dragon. The group understood the assignment and nailed it.

This year, Emile said he wanted to go on the Mars rover because he loves outer space.

Murphy and his group have been working on the costume for weeks, ready in time for the big show today.

Once Emile is finished his costume, it will be passed on to the next child who needs it.
