Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson Surprises Families With Free Toys at Iconic NYC Toy Store

With the holidays upon us, some celebrities are looking to give back and spread the joy with families everywhere. This year, Fast X star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson decided to celebrate Christmas a little early and share the love with some lucky kids and parents.

On Dec. 20, Johnson stopped by New York City's iconic FAO Schwarz toy store to surprise visitors for the holidays. Johnson himself has fond memories of visiting the store as a child, and now that he's amassed an estimated net worth of $800 million, he wanted to pay it forward.

Johnson shared video of his visit to the store. He did much more than just show his face as a celebrity; he paid for all the shoppers' items himself, telling a store employee "Let's ring everybody up."

"You know I love to do crazy cool shit for people, because it keeps me from going insane," Johnson captioned the post. "FAO Schwarz, I love you and thank you for letting this big kid never grow up!!"

"When I was a little boy, my old man would wrestle in New York City once a month at Madison Square Garden—and every month I would dream about going to FAO Schwarz to buy a toy," the actor reminisced. "Finally, my mom took me to FAO back in 1983 and I bought ONE TOY for 13 bucks (a magic set) and walked around that magical toy utopia thinking 'Oh my God, this place is HEAVEN.' And years later, I just had to come back to NYC and visit FAO and buy every single kid’s toys. Didn’t care how many toys they had or what they wanted. I’ll take care of it all and it was awesome."

He confessed he suffered a bit of sticker shock when he learned just how much money he spent, but it was all worth it for him. "Later that night at dinner, I got the bill for everyone’s toys and thought, 'Holy shit, I think I just purchased the entire FAO Schwarz company,'" he admitted. "Seriously, seeing all those kids’ faces light up with joy made this one of the BEST DAYS EVER!!"

"Merry Christmas, everyone, enjoy your toys, and thanks again to FAO for being so gracious in the Christmas spirit and letting this big kid be just that—a big kid," he concluded.

With the warmth and generosity of Santa Claus himself, The Rock might want to consider donning a red suit and long white beard for his next role.
