Some people view having a younger sibling as adding another level of rivalry to their lives. Parents will do anything they can to keep their children from fighting.

Max Tingle, age 12, and his older brother, Noah Tingle, age 17, have a tight relationship. In August, Noah began his final year in high school. Perhaps Noah and Max didn’t anticipate facing the realities of their separation until much later, but now that that time is drawing near, Noah intends to make this year extra special for his younger brother before he leaves for college.

Outside their home, where he was waiting for Max to get off the bus, Noah decided to greet him while wearing some rather peculiar clothing. According to Noah, while in his final year of high school, he intended to embarrass Max to observe how he would react to the situation.

Noah has been using a Facebook page he calls “The Bus Brother” since the beginning of his ruse. He mostly wanted to show off his new threads to his relatives and friends.

Having started on August 24th, Noah has uploaded videos of himself in fancy dress to trick his sibling. More than 83,000 people have liked “The Bus Brother” page on Facebook to date. The cute videos and touching backstories of these two brothers have gone viral.

The video shows Noah in costume, meeting Max and pursuing him. They were fighting and fell outside their house. People like the video because the brothers seem to enjoy each other’s company like cubs in the wild.

Given the symbols these brothers represent, it is hardly surprising that the videos have become so popular so quickly. When we reach home, Noah is the source of the comforting warmth we all hope to meet. Max, the youngest sibling, is a symbol of the child within all of us who is growing up to be confident but still feels vulnerable.

Noah and Max, typical of boys their age, show their pleasure at seeing one other by shoving and pushing. One minute, Noah will lovingly embrace Max, and the next, he’ll grab Max from behind and drag him to the ground. Max will push Noah aside to prevent a collision and go to the side.

The current image on The Bus Brother’s Facebook page is a picture that says it all. The outfits appear to complement Noah’s overall “welcome home” mood that he gives off every time Max gets off the bus.

Noah has told reporters that he wants his brother to remember the costumes fondly once he starts college, so he bought several of them. Seeing a youngster recognize the strength of love is very remarkable.

It is unusual for there to be rain at this time of year, which is nearing the end of summer. But the fact that it was raining that afternoon at the house of the Tingle brothers in central Louisiana did not deter Noah.

Max and Noah can easily communicate across a five-year age gap. However, besides the obvious generation gap (Noah is already a senior, while Max has yet to start high school), there are also noticeable physical distinctions between the two.

Noah works diligently for the right thing to do according to his outfit. He pulled out the character of one of the inflatable tube men sometimes seen at automobile lots. Noah had to move and sway like the props in order to make the costume convincing.

Despite his diminutive size, Max possesses a great deal of vitality. Here, Max takes a leap, nearly successfully knocking off Noah’s humongous sloth head. There’s a chance Max picked up some pointers on technique via his older brother, who’s an avid basketball player for his school’s team.

Like many youngsters his age, Max probably wishes he could play Batman instead of Robin. But maybe Max is enthusiastic about playing Robin since it means spending his days as Noah’s sidekick. It’s clear, though, that Max has plenty of fight in him.

These two are more than just siblings. They’re also quite similar in appearance, not least in terms of their grins. When viewed from the side, it appears that a mature self is viewing his younger self.

Each of Noah’s outfits is a number and a witty or endearing caption. For example, as he posed as a bacon strip, he penned, “# 15 ‘What’s shakin’ bacon?” By the time he donned his twelfth outfit, NBC was filming as well, and his mother managed to snap a pic of the crew in action. Meanwhile, Noah, in minion garb, struggled to keep his calm when picking up Max off the bus.

There were numerous reporters there–this news event wasn’t solely covered by NBC. Additionally, WAFB, a local news station, reported on The Bus Brother, and already national networks like Fox and CBS have also picked up the subject.

Their narrative made Noah so famous that he was stopped by two separate groups in Louisiana, both of which wanted to take a picture with him. He has made an effort to maintain his modesty in the face of overnight success. Noah and his younger brother, Max, even released a video to express their gratitude.

Noah did not think about how long his costume joke would go when he started it. He had no clue, either, that his brother’s and his own inspiring story would resonate with people all around the world.

This picture of Max riding on Noah’s back portrays the little fighter spirit that Max already possesses. Even though Noah won’t be the older sibling in the house for much longer–the memories that he’s given Max will continue to have a significant impact on him as he gets older.
