Arnold Schwarzenegger is truly a global star, and he keeps proving it every day. Known for his down-to-earth demeanor, he is also famously called the Austrian Oak for his incredible physique. Schwarzenegger also has a huge fan following, with millions of fans worldwide.
However, not all fans have been good or supportive of the global star since there have been many incidents when they did something problematic or indecent. During Schwarzenegger’s visit to South Africa, he was kicked in the back by one of his ‘fans’, but the bodybuilding giant handled the situation with grace and didn’t even realize he was kicked.
Arnold Schwarzenegger Was Once Kicked By His Crazy Fan
Arnold Schwarzenegger is known all over the world and is often found traveling to different parts of the world for events. The Terminator star was hence called to South Africa for the Arnold Sports Festival. While multiple fans showed their excitement and delight to see the former Mr. Olympia, there was one fan who shocked the world with his problematic antics.
While Schwarzenegger was busy taking photos and videos, the fan suddenly came from the back and gave the star a flying kick right to the back. Security quickly took action and held him down as he shouted several times,
“Help me! I need a Lamborghini.”
However, the Austrian Oak didn’t even realize he had been kicked as he later revealed in a Tweet,
“I thought I was just jostled by the crowd, which happens a lot. I only realized I was kicked when I saw the video like all of you.”
While many fans exclaimed their surprise, one commented,
“Imagine being so big that you don’t realize someone kicked you until watching a video a few hours later.”
And that is why Arnold Schwarzenegger is called the Austrian Oak.
Arnold Schwarzenegger Decided Not To Press Charges On The Fan That Assaulted Him
While many celebrities would rush to press charges if such an incident took place, Arnold Schwarzenegger decided not to bother. Not only did he maintain his composure when the incident happened, but he also decided not to take legal action to prevent the assaulter from getting extra attention, since he was known to plan similar incidents in the past.
Furthermore, he even asked his followers to stop sharing the video and instead focus on the young athletes who deserved their rightful attention. His stance on the matter further proves why Schwarzenegger is as famous as he is and truly deserves all the fame in the world.
