This Baby Stops Crying When He Hears The 'Star Wars' Imperial March

Darth Vader's theme helps 11-week-old Eli relax.

This little baby is a stormtrooper in training.

Adorable 11-week-old Eli stops crying whenever he hears the Imperial March from "Star Wars."

Eli was just 1 month old when his father, Micah Hayman, realized that the John Williams composition, known as "Darth Vader's Theme," had a soothing effect on the infant.

"He was screaming one day and nothing I did would calm him down," Hayman told ABC News this week. "For some reason I decided to pull up the 'Imperial March,' and he stopped crying as soon as it started playing."

Hayman, from Texas, posted footage of his son's reaction to Vader's theme online Thursday. It's going viral, as you might expect.

Just remember, Eli: Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate... leads to naps.
