1. He wears a different cologne for each character
Yup that’s right, to smell like his characters, the Rock decides what cologne they would wear. For example, in “Central Intelligence” he wore Kenzo, and in ”Furious Seven” – just baby oil, and the makeup artists were not to remove a drop of sweat.

5. He eats seven meals a day

Are you surprised? Dwayne didn’t exactly look like an average teenager. You know. He was buffed as hell even back then, add the creepy mustache, and you got yourself a stereotypical “narc”.

7. He holds two world records
He got his first record – “The highest pay day for a first-time leading man”, after getting that spin-off movie “Scorpion King”, which earned him $5.5 million. And his second record was for the most selfies taken in three minutes at the London premiere of San Andreas. He just went all out on that one!

8. He Was Considered To Play Johnny Bravo In Live-Action Movie
Hey, mama! Dwayne Johnson as the sexiest cartoon character of the 90’s? Bring it on! Too bad, the project was scrapped entirely in 2002. That would’ve been a great movie, I bet!
