The Internet has never been happier about a grown man crying.
It's the era of the new-and-improved Justin Bieber -- you know, less douchey, more "I'm serious about my music and faith" -- which involves a rebirth via air baptism.
During Sunday's MTV VMAs, Bieber performed a medley of tunes, recited an emotionally-raw monologue and then literally took flight. Upon landing, he broke into tears. Was it because he believed he could fly and he did? Was it because his apology-PR tour has actually worked and we all kind of accept the Biebs now?
Was it because Selena Gomez finally texted him back?

We'll never know, but it was powerful. Welcome back, JB. Don't fall from grace now.
