46-year-old Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson brought his cousin and long-time stunt double ( starting with Johnson's appearance in The Scorpion King way back in 2002) Tanoai Reed to tears as he surprised him with a brand-new customised truck. 




He shared the video of him revealing the surprise gift with his 111 million followers on Monday thanking Tanoai Reed for 17 years of work .

The video started with The Rock saying :
“When I saw him, I was like, ‘Oh, my God! Looks like my twin"
“The truth is, he’s been an incredible partner and brother to me.”

He then turned towards Reed and says:
"It's been an honor and I want to say from the bottom of my heart, I love you, I thank you, and enjoy your new truck."





Those words were enough to bring stuntman Tanoai Reed to tears.

Johnson also revealed that Reed has suffered multiple broken bones, severed tendons and torn ligaments over the 17 years he's worked with him.

He said:
“Seventeen years of him giving his blood, his sweat. I mean, this is a small token of my appreciation" Johnson tells the camera"

Double your hustle. Register your business.

Awwwww

So D Rock is not the one doing those stunts sef

What's with Dwayne Johnson and Ford F-150 trucks? That's how the other day he gave his uncle F-150, now again his cousin. Maybe it's because their body is too big to fit inside a small sports car like Lamborghini, Ferrari etc

That's was cool of Dwayne


Thumps up

very interesting! And he gives off the impression that he performs his own stunts in his movies! A pro-wrestler for that matter

personally, I see people who drive trucks as tougher than their Lamborghini counterparts. There's this ruggedness that makes them seem way more manly. Just my opinion.

you may be right but I think Lamborghini is sexier than truck

Stunts double are truly the backbone of Hollywood movies. These are people who risk their lives to give action movies its intense motion. There are even second unit directors who are in charge of the action scenes in movies. One director i know that doesn't like to employ second unit director is Christopher Nolan.

if he actually did it himself, he wouldn't be needing a stunt double. Do you know how many injuries and broken bones this his stunt double has received?

This stunt is really a risky job! That's something about white people, when they deliver they deliver excellently...and not mediocre kind of movies.

Sexier? I Don't think so. Rugged is the real sexy
