Young boy invades Vatican stage and hugs Pope Francis

Subscribe to ITN News: bit.ly/itnytsub
A young boy stole the show in St Peter's Square on Saturday when he climbed on stage to greet Pope Francis, and stayed close by as the pontiff delivered his speech. The scene - which took place while the pontiff was meeting Catholic families from around the world - was captured by Vatican Television. The Pope was listening to residents of the island of Lampedusa and migrants who had reached Italy by sea, when the child left the bench on the side of the stage where he had been seated with other children. Pope Francis seemed amused as the boy refused to leave the centre-stage, despite several attempts by aides and security personnel. Report by Mark Morris.

    I am not a Catholic but I can't help but respect this man. He seems genuinely compassionate and down to earth. Certainly the best Pontiff of my lifetime.

    I am protestant personally just traditionally in the general sense, but this Pope seems like a very beautiful person. I don't known much about the other ones, but I am sure there would be no Protestants then if he was Pope then.

    Pope Benedict is a scholar, a man of deep spiritual insight and integrity. If after reading some of his inspiring books you still want to fling out epithets like 'evil' then at least justify the comment with chapter and verse.

    Another guy just gives me big numbers when he talks about Mao. First, no one knows how many people died because of Mao's leftist policy, but the most credible number is about 20 million in Great Leap Forward, so stop giving me all those big numbers 50 mil, 60 mil, 70 mil, or 80 mil, that you can't even confirm. As what I told you: every word I say is based on FACTS and EVIDENCE, every word you say is based on anti-Chinese propaganda and what Dalai Lama tells you. You are apparently NOT educated.
