Please, please.

No cameras, please.

Stop.

Billy.

They said no one had ever

been dead so long and come back.

Well, not without

brain damage anyway.

The funny thing is,

I'd set a new record.

I was famous,

and I didn't care anymore.

We... mwah...

have a surprise for you,

but that's not it.

Hey.

Look at that.

Pretty handsome.

Did you make a new commercial?

No, no.

It's gonna be something

much better than that.

Billy.

Those...

The 53 minutes,

do you remember anything?

Yeah. I was wrong.

There are dogs in heaven.

Okay, here it is.

Hey, kid, move over.

Now for the latest snowman report.

Fiona, how we doin'?

Well, Terry,

it is an amazing scene here.

In just the past hour, buses

from three other schools have arrived,

bringing hundreds

of more students.

And the latest count,

more than 12,000 snowmen.

That's more than five times

the record set in Hokkaido, Japan.

Ha ha, isn't that great?

With several hours still to go,

that number is expected

to rise significantly.

All over town, thousands

of snowmen are being made,

and all of this inspired

by one miraculous young man

who continues to recover

in the hospital.

His name is William Kirkfield,

or Billy as he's known

to his many friends.

- We miss you, Billy!

- Hi, Billy!

They did it.

You did it.

Right here, 501... 2.

Wait a minute.

Did I miss one?

- Oh, no! No!

- I need a scarf. Look.

Not you... Not you again.

Are you kidding?

Don't worry, Billy.

We put your name

at the top of the list.

Things changed a lot after that.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Jason and Lucas

started hanging out,

and I made lots

of other friends, too,

including my first girlfriend.

Hi, Billy.

Howard even

joined a hockey team.

He still wasn't the best skater,

but he took his team

from last to first place

as the best goalie in the league.

And Howard's dad?

He's still adapting.

For me, every day since we set

the record has felt like bonus time.

I know there's a plan for my life,

and I know I'll be happy.

After all,

it's not what we do that's important,

so much as how we do it.

That's what makes us who we are.

And me?

I'm proud to be a snowman.
