Chris Pratt's Velociraptor training scene from the highly successful film Jurassic World has indeed become one of the most unforgettable scenes that have captured a wide range of audiences, young and old alike.
During the past weekend, the actor dropped by the Our Lady of the Lake Children's Hospital in Baton Rouge, Louisiana much to the delight of the hospital's staff and patients. As a unique treat, Chris recreated that famous raptor whisper scene with some young patients in the hospital in a fun and heartwarming "dino play," bringing smiles and giggles to everyone even if it was only a brief visit.
Jurassic World is the fourth installment in the well-loved Jurassic Park film series and was under the direction of Colin Trevorrow. It broke several records on its opening weekend, including having been the first film to earn a worldwide gross of $500 million.
In the movie, Pratt played the role of Owen Grady, a Velociraptor expert and trainer. In one part of the movie, he was seen entering the cage of the wild Velociraptors after seeing one of the staff accidentally fall off the bridge while trying to feed the carnivores. He tried to calm them down and even called them by their names Luke and Delta.
That particular scene has been reenacted by a number of zookeepers as they train everything from red pandas, penguins, chickens, pigs and walruses.
For Pratt, however, he decided to reenact the same scene with the children at the hospital. Children, of course, have a very vivid imagination and are deemed experts when it comes to mimicking animal behavior. They are just simply sensitive about their surroundings.
"Our patients were all smiles and we are so thankful to Chris for lifting their spirits by visiting and handing out Jurassic World goodies," wrote the hospital on its Facebook page.
The scene had also been captured and shared by Reddit user Chrysias who captioned the post by saying: "Chris Pratt brought his velociraptor training skills to my local children's hospital today."
Chrysias further wrote, "I'm lucky enough to work with a philanthropy that benefits the hospital and I know these kids and their families were absolutely over the moon to have him visit. Considering he's here filming another project and probably had a million other things he could be doing, it's really great of him to spend his Saturday at the hospital."
