Other tips

1. Costume never gives one a super power. So please do not try any dangerous tricks along with the costume.
Keep yourself safe and avoid doing even little stunts with this costume.

2. This would be a tight outfit and hence do not try out vigorous or more heavy tricks straining your actions and curvature to the extremities of tearing the costume.

3. Memorize and practice saying some classic Batman phrases such as " "You never learned to mind your surroundings!" when you sneak up on somebody from a dark corner. Do make sure it's somebody you know and not a stranger, or you might get into trouble. Use "You will never need to thank me" after you perform a heroic task such as pouring a cup of juice or serving a plate of hot dogs to a young kid, lady or elderly. Have some fun with the heroic elements of Batman and make it comical.

Have a safe and happy Halloween as the Caped Crusader!
