A boy with autism was overjoyed at seeing his favorite band Coldplay in concert, so much so that when they played his favorite song ‘Fix You’, he could no longer control his emotions and burst into tears.

A video of that moment is now making the Internet cry, with almost three million views on YouTube and thousands of shares on social networks, in just a few days. Luis Vazquez and his wife decided to show these beautiful, moving images to the world, filmed in Mexico City on 16 April, hoping to send a message of hope and inclusion for the future to all children with autism.

Surprisingly, the British group then sent a tweet thanking their young fan on his profile: “This kind of thing makes it all worthwhile.”
