Indonesian teen fights wildfires in Superman costume after school — video goes viral worldwide
- Rudiansyah, 15, lives in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia — a forested region that catches fire every dry season, destroying crops and homes.
- This year when fires crept toward his home, he dusted off his Superman costume and joined the local volunteer fire crew after school every day.
- He helps hold hoses and assists adult volunteers — saying fighting fires felt more useful than sitting at home on his phone while his village burned.
- A video of him in his red cape battling flames went viral worldwide — locals now recognise him by his cape and foreign media have come to interview him.
