According to Juiced TV - a show made by the children being treated at the Children's Hospital - the star spent over two hours handing out gold coins, giving hugs and talking selfies with the patients, completely in character.

“Now if there is other people in it, why do you call it a selfie?” he joked in Sparrow’s famous drawn British accent.
