Eli Vale was diagnosed with cancer last year.

His parents call him their "little super hero" for his bravery and strength.

He was sent to the Lady Cilantro Children's Hospital in Brisbane last year to undergo chemotherapy and treatment.

In 2016, Eli was diagnosed with ectomesenchymoma, a rare form of cancer.

On his 3rd birthday, little Eli got the surprise of a lifetime: Batman himself pulled up in the Batmobile.

To celebrate Eli's big day, he went on a ride in the Batmobile and hung out with Batman, all while wearing his own Batman costume.

Crowds gathered outside the Hospital to snap photos at the arrival of the legendary Batmobile.

This Batmobile is a replica of the one seen in the 1989 movie.

Patrick Williams and ABC News were on hand to capture video of the experience.

How awesome is the Batmobile?

The Batmobile was built by Australian Craig Blackburn and his children.

Blackburn initially built the Batmobile for his son Shaun to use at his high school formal.

However, after seeing how excited kids everywhere were over the Batmobile, Mr. Blackburn decided to use it to make the dreams of sick children come true.

If Eli's smile is any indication, Mr. Blackburn is doing just that.
