This is the incredible scene faced by hundreds of faithful who crowded the cathedral of the town of Los Realejos, in Tenerife, Spain, before the scheduled mass on Sunday afternoon.

The church was packed with faithful, waiting for the priests to begin the liturgical celebrations planned in honor of the Madonna, when a young man suddenly came running along the central nave with a small child on his shoulders which then has placed on the statue of the Virgin, behind the altar, before walking away and leaving it there. It is the absurd scene faced by hundreds of faithful who crowded the cathedral of the town of Los Realejos on Sunday afternoon, in Tenerife, Spain, on the occasion of the liturgical celebrations foreseen by the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Carmine.

The scene was also immortalized in a video posted online and quickly went viral on social media. The episode around 7:30 pm on Sunday, just before Mass began. As seen in the video. while the parish priest and his assistants prepare the altar, the man runs into the sacred place, with the child sitting on his shoulders and held by the legs. To everyone’s amazement, he doesn’t stop and runs up the stairs to the altar to get as close as possible to the sacred image of the Madonna.
