The Sun‘s piece is perfect, so I’m just going turn this incredible story about Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson—my hero, your hero, everyone’s hero—on over to them:
Film action hero The Rock single-handedly tackled a gang of burglars on the set of his latest movie.
The 40-year-old former wrestler sprang into action when the youths tried breaking into vans containing expensive equipment in Hackney, East London.
The Rock—real name Dwayne Johnson—was dressed as an FBI agent while filming The Fast and the Furious 6 in a neighbouring warehouse and caught sight of the thieves trying to force locks.
When he clocked what was happening, the 6ft 5ins, 20-stone star left filming in the middle of a battle sequence and charged at the hoodies waving his fake police badge.
The youths were so shocked that they stopped what they were doing and fled empty-handed. (Via.)
What did The Rock have to say about his extraordinary actions? As usual, he was charmingly humble.
All I’m saying is that Sir Rock has a pretty nice ring to it.
“Former wrestler”? The Rock is already booked to face the WWE Championship at the 2013 Royal Rumble. Some fan you are, not.
Any Fast and Furious movie would be a good candidate for Hecklevision. IMHO
THE MOST ELECTRIFYING MAN IN BURGLARY PREVENTION!!!!
Since he pled the 5th, (not sure how well that translates…) doesn’t that mean he likely had something to hide?
Maybe his body double saved the day while he was raiding the catering tent!?!
