Tom Hanks with drunk kid in an Oscar winning performance!

We've all been there! A few too many drinks on a night out, and before you know it - black out! For the male of the species, there is the old saying that goes: a friend in need is a pain in the arse and should be dumped at the earliest possible opportunity if he has drunk himself into oblivion!

The morning after a black-out is a worrying time. In the good old days before mobile phones, digital cameras, and social media, our drunken performances could normally be put to the back of our minds. After all, if you can't remember it, and there is no evidence to support it, then it never happened, right?

Unfortunately, in this day and age, the memory flashbacks are the least of our worries. We now have to face the torment of looking through the text messages we sent, or status updates we posted to Facebook or Twitter, or even worse - pictures and video clips taken on our smartphones.

So you can only imagine what went through this guys head when he checked his phone in the morning to find himself in a series of snaps with Hollywood legend Tom Hanks!

What a story that would have been!

However, apparently what really happened is that Hanks was eating in a restaurant and a couple of fans approached him asking if he would pose in a series of photos with them, pretending that they had all been out on a massive drinking bender together!

You have to love the man for getting involved. Here is a two-time Oscar winner who could have got on his high horse and snubbed the kids, but instead he got involved and for that I salute the man.

What a legend!
