Staff at a local Toronto gym were delighted by a surprise appearance from wrestling-turned-movie star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Gym staff were clearly overjoyed by their encounter with one of Hollywood's most bankable stars, crowding around to snap photos with the 53-year-old. Aldo Frixione, co-owner of Fit Squad, was on-site during the visit and tells blogTO that "It was an absolutely surreal experience to have The Rock visit our gym." "Given that Fit Squad is a high-end strength-focused gym, every staff and gym member who trained there at the time respected Mr. Johnson's privacy, and no one interrupted him during his training in any way," Frixione says. Fit Squad is located at 111 Peter St., Unit 102.
