Jason Smith has created one of the most memorable costumes for Halloween 2012, the Aliens Power Loader Baby Costume. As a result, he has earned the Coolest Dad title. A huge fan of the holiday, Smith decided to include his daughter by crafting a costume that would fit her as well. The resulting design is jaw-dropping because of the illusion that she, who can be no more than two years old, appears to be controlling the Power Loader.
The Aliens Power Loader Baby Costume took only two nights and a day to create. Made out of cardboard, Smith's main concern was the safety of his daughter. Everything slips off in a jiffy in case of an emergency or a diaper change.
