This Doctor Delivered A Baby On Halloween Dressed Up As The Joker

ADVERTISEMENT

Batman gets all the credit for being an awesome guy, but while he might be good at kicking ass and keeping the world safe, you don’t see him delivering babies, do you? No, but as you can see from these awesome pictures, The Joker clearly has a softer side that the Caped Crusader.

Bruce Wayne’s arch nemesis was recently snapped at Henry County Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee, where he helped Brittany Selph deliver her baby girl Oaklyn, and on Halloween no less. OK, so it wasn’t actually The Joker, but it sure did look like him! The man behind the mask was in fact doctor Paul Locus, an obstetrician who happened to be on duty in full Halloween gear when the expectant couple arrived to give birth. Paul offered to remove his outfit but Brittany and her husband Joseph weren’t about to lose the chance to have their daughter delivered by the creepy green-haired villain! “We couldn’t help but laugh, when he walked in the room!” Justin said. “My wife, being the open-minded woman, with a sense of humor, thought it would be hilarious to have such a unique delivery.” The pictures were posted online by a cousin of Brittany’s, and they soon went viral for a very good reason! Would you have your baby delivered by The Joker? Let us know in the comments below!

Giving birth is already a pretty traumatic experience, but how about having The Joker deliver your child?

That’s precisely what happened in Nashville recently when Brittany Selph went to the hospital to give birth

She’d gone into labor on Halloween, and she arrived to find the doctor dressed as Batman’s arch nemesis

“We couldn’t help but laugh, when he walked in the room!” said her husband Justin

The doctor offered to remove his costume but the couple said no way!

“My wife, being the open-minded woman, with a sense of humor, thought it would be hilarious to have such a unique delivery”

Why so serious? These guys certainly weren’t!

Watch The Joker in action below:

The internet thought the whole thing was hilarious

I hope he doesn't blow up the hospital... (if I get a ridiculous number of downvotes because nobody here has watched Dark Knight I'm going to be very disappointed)

Reminds me of Parks & Recreation when April gave birth to her first baby on Halloween - except it was she who put the scary makeup on herself especially for the birth. :o)

Wow really I was downvoted just for pointing out the inappropriateness of this costume? What is wrong with you people? If he was dressed as basically anything else there'd be no problem. I'm not being a "killjoy" for having a rational opinion. You wouldn't want your rehab counselor to show up dressed as Heisenberg, would you? What if the doc was dressed as Neegan? Would you still find it funny despite both characters having committed equally heinous crimes?

I was very sadly in rehab for awhile, and we had a counselor who dressed as Heisenburg for Halloween while I was there. It was actually hilarious! There wasn't a single person who was offended by it.

Ah yes, the Joker, a character who, among other things, has kidnapped dozens of babies, sexually assaulted a paralyzed woman and sent pictures of her naked body to her father, and blown up a school full of children. Exactly who I want to see delivering my baby and putting his hand around my child's throat.

I bet you're a blast at Halloween parties. Everytime you point out all the problems with all the costumes, I bet everyone just laughs and laughs. And then they kick you out.

Apparently the only other sane commenter here and you're treated the same as me lol. I've learned that the Panda community doesn't respect dissenting opinions very much, just downvoting any disagreement into oblivion, even more so than genuinely inappropriate or rude comments. Watch it happen to this one as proof.
