As terrible as it can be to get caught in a snowstorm, sometimes the bad weather has a special way of bringing out the best in people. Some people take it upon themselves to lend a hand in shoveling their neighbor's drive or clearing the paths down their road, others go out on the streets and ensure that those who don't have a place to stay will have some shelter for the night, and some - well, one guy in particular - dress as Disney Princesses in order to do a good deed.
Jason Triplett, a 37-year-old attorney, was caught in the blizzard that hit Boston on Tuesday night when he spotted a police wagon that had become stuck in a snowbank. At the time of the incident, he happened to be wearing an Elsa costume (as you do), and felt compelled to help out in some way.
So this ended up happening:
"My friends got a real laugh out of it," said Triplett, who was cheered on by people watching from a nearby bar. He added that he didn't mind that nobody else helped him move the van, and was just happy that "people were really getting a kick out of it."
Triplett claimed that he'd bought the costume last year, and had been waiting for a snowstorm like this so that he could make an appearance as the ice queen. And, while he might not have intended to go viral for his helpful actions as a macho princess, he's certainly happy that he was able to put a smile on people's faces.
