(KYMA, KECY) - Skateboarding idol, Tony Hawk is giving his skateboard to six-year-old Cooper.

The young skateboarder ran after Fed-Ex driver, Mikail Farrer, and told him to deliver his skateboard to Tony Hawk.

The driver captured the moment on the popular social media app TikTok, and the post quickly caught Hawk's attention after going viral. Then, Cooper's dream came true by getting to meet Tony Hawk through the popular app.

Hawk also said he would be giving Cooper his very own skateboard in return for the kind gesture.

"Hey Cooper! It's Tony Hawk, what's up? I just want to say thank you so much for the skateboard! It's on the way to my house already and that as a thank you gift I'm going to send you my skateboard right here, this one that I'm riding."

Tony: Cooper, you didn't really expect me to send you anything, did you?

Cooper: um... yeah

Tony: Oh you did? I stand corrected. *Laughter*
