[@gianniskavalagr83]

One of the most badass metalheads is one of the coolest dads ever , hell yeah \m/

[@AngelofAnguish]

In my opinion, I guess parenthood and marriage (ACTUALLY) DID KILL THE BEAST THAT WAS, WAS, METALLICA!

[@ahmadnawarabdkarim6823]

how many dads can celeberate their kids birthday while working at same time?? haha!!

[@gaminboy]

James is cool.. he shares the stage with his kiddos...Enough said.

[@mariannagalides9750]

Respect! James is a heck of a father!!

[@selfdex]

James Hetfield -> one of the best fathers in the world for as far as i know!

[@lhsailo]

Tbf any loving dad would do this if they had the chance, but unfortunately, not everyone is in a popular band like Metallica

[@rosiewhitfield123]

Yeah and but not every father appreciates his child and sticks around to love and care for his kid/s

[@Chelsamaa]

That's amazing how James does that for his kids (: Imagine ALL those people singing happy birthday to you! It's awesome.

[@DocPatriot]

this is awesome and now castor is touring the country in his own band! long live the hetfields

[@KenJones42017]

Reading through the comments, all these people whining about "why name him Castor? It's "beaver" in Spanish!" He's named Castor because it means "shining one" or "to shine" in Greek. That's why James named him that.

[@WilmerVilloria1911]

Ken Jones Castor Is te name of a constellation

[@m-s6762]

It os also the name of a character from the Greek mythology who is the son of Zeus and Leda, which is, by the way the reason why the star was named like that (Castor is a star from the constellation of gemini)

[@KevinGsWK]

Thought it would've been a pun on Stratocaster

[@KaixooAeri]

@@KevinGsWK AND A TELECASTER HAHAHAHAHAH

[@windyhead7960]

It was James' father's name, I reckon.

[@Fils666]

Fender TeleCastor

HAHAHAHA, this comment is too good

[@Music20275]

Fils666 well done mate

[@CesarSanchez-vy3sy]

TeleCastor ✊😀

[@friendship440]

Just a Big man sharing sons birthday with us.... with Metallica family as a part of family... bless you big man and your family...

[@sunfirefilms6358]

We've all grown up with Metallica and they have grown up with us. Love how grounded these guys are.

[@DemedeorProd]

I love the way how James Hetfield sing "Happy Birthday" at the end ^^

[@NickPeters839]

Anyone who has seen the documentary "Absent" understands how huge this is. Despite the travel and time commitment that is inevitable he is doing all he can to right the wrongs from his own childhood and stop the cycle. Being a father is the best and most important thing a man can do. This is awesome. (men and women both should check out the movie/documentary "Absent.")

[@devinmetalfreak]

It would be cool if Castor follows in his dads footsteps and starts his own band and they become just as good as Metallica.

[@skinnyfella4816]

devinmetalfreak this is a little late, but he isn't interested in bands at all actually.

[@angelaarellano6734]

He has a band now called BASTARDANE. They sound nice. Lets hope he can make success for his own talent, it seems he is in the right track for that.

[@iliveonatropicalisland6086]

Kirk is well prepared

[@taby32]

What a wonderful dad James H. have become, with all their achievement in their music he still so grounded. So awesome video, more respect and thanks for sharing the video.

[@Venice666]

[@dowens3781]

And now he's a kick-ass drummer in a kick-ass band 🤘

[@TheRlyNewHide]

Happy birthday tooo youuuuuaaaah ! YEAH! - thats the way it should be by James ^^

[@OGQuaranTEEN]

I bet his birthday celebrations are gonna get even cooler as he gets older!

Here in Mexico castor means Beaver c:

[@ultraviolence2579]

Castor:"Oh yeeeaahhhh!!"

[@roach3076]

1:30 Castor: "Hey! Daddy tell Kirk to stop spraying me NOW!"

[@juanaraci]

gosh.,imagine this kids childhood!amazing

[@zografia2001]

Castor, along with his brother Pollux were 2 famous Argonauts in the Greek Mythology. The 2 most brightest stars of Gemini costellation are called Castor and Pollux after the twin brothers. In Latin the twins are also known as Gemini or Castores. And yes, Castor is a cool name for a kid!

[@smilinachya]

That is so cool.

[@geico1975]

Happy Birthday Castor! Very Cool:)

[@YourLocalJamesHetfieldFangirl]

Like Father, Like Son

[@rickaaron6230]

That was awesome!!! Good job dad!!

[@peradize]

this happened in Portugal

[@r4m_safetycar1]

It’s mad to think that Castor is now a drummer in his own band

[@Laura55131]

If you just dont know what face to do when you're sing you the happy birthday's song, imagine in a METALLICA concert with million of people!

[@Adennos]

Castor Hetfield doesn't want headphones brought me here. And this time he got owned.

[@METALLICAOWN]

[@KenJones42017]

3InSupremes Yes, he goes hunting a lot. In the 1992 video "year and a half in the life of metallica" it shows him blasting stuff with a shotgun for fun.

[@eichs22]

This was the first time he took those headphones off since the movie Some Kind of Monster

[@bobbybobo6499]

That's awesome!!!!

[@localmusiclover605]

Did he name his son after a stratocaster or a telecastor

[@MrKFNeverGiveUp]

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, you look like a Hetfield and you rock like one too.

[@jasminlerouxperreault6463]

Fun fact: Castor means beaver in french

[@49chah]

[@PHVNT0ML0RD81]

Could you imagine being up there at 10 years old and having thousands upon thousands of people screaming you and your dads name? O_o thats would be insane.

[@PiazzaGurl]

😂😂😂😂 yo even his moms jumped in. Parents getting payback for being a pain lol. Awe that’s so cool, make Castor feel like a member of the band/team.

[@johnduncan77]

I see football in that kids future. Nice moment at the end.
