Many celebrities avoid exposure in the public and prefer to stay out of sight whenever possible. They are seen on screen or in performance venues on a regular basis, but we rarely get a glimpse into their personal lives.

Sometimes, however, celebrities do things outside of their public entertainment career that shows us how truly great they are as people.

Johnny Depp is a prime example of an A-list celebrity who prefers to stay out of the spotlight in his day-to-day life. Depp is still one of the most well-known cinema personalities, and his pirate role is perhaps the one that people are most familiar with after the tremendous success of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies.

Even given this level of popularity, the actor still prefers to keep to himself in general. Although he may have a reputation for being aloof, we should not assume that he lacks a caring and kind nature toward people or that he doesn't have concerns for those who are in need. The actor may occasionally seem eccentric or bizarre, but his recent actions at a children's hospital were not unkind or strange in the least.

The role of Captain Jack Sparrow is still one that people think of fondly, and his special talents made the character an important landmark in cinema that people can never forget. On a recent day, Depp did something that most people would not expect. He visited some sick children in Vancouver in the guise of Captain Jack.

It's hard enough for adults to be confined to a hospital room, but it's even more difficult for young children who have a need to play and explore. Depp made a rare outing to the BC Children's Hospital, and the foundation posted a video of Depp interacting with the children and bringing smiles to their faces. The actor made visits throughout the facility, meeting with individual patients and families. His visit lasted over five hours, and it went a long way toward improving the mood of the patients.

Johnny Depp is an actor who many envision as a somewhat strange person, and he has recently shown that he has a very caring side. He does not place himself above others, especially when they are in need. Are you surprised to learn about this generous act of caring that the A-list actor has done?
