'Super DJ' gets to help implode a building

"Super DJ," DJ Pitts, 4, reacts as Dru Phillips (Green Lantern) amuses him after DJ pushed the button to implode the 19-story former Executive Park Motor building at the corner of I-85 and North Druid Hills Road on Saturday morning, November 8, 2014. Once a patient at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, DJ wore many capes during his six-month hospital stay after accidentally swallowing a dangerous engine cleaning material -- from Batman and Superman capes to a homemade cape that proudly said "Super DJ." | View video of DJ and the implosion| HYOSUB SHIN / HSHIN@AJC.COM
