Real-life superhero builds own Batmobile to cheer sick children

Zac Mihajlovic is Batman. He has the suit, he drives the car, and to many terminally ill children in Australia, he represents a real-life superhero.

Having spent two years building his street-legal Batmobile with the help of his grandfather, Mihajlovic, the 29 year-old from Camden, Australia, has denied multiple six-figure requests to purchase the car -- including one from a sheikh in Dubai. Instead, he focuses on his partnership with the Make-A-Wish foundation, fulfilling countless children's dreams by turning up at their door in full Batman attire, taking them for the ride of their life.

His Batmobile, based on the 1989 edition starring Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson, even includes parts from the actual car used in the film — like the working afterburner. Beyond the lack of guns and grappling hooks, Mihajlovic claims his replica is incredibly close to the original, even adopting air suspension. He also thinks that it's the only 1989 replica in existence that can legally be driven on the street.
