Paul Rudd Can Split an Apple in Half With His Bare Hands

Paul Rudd may play a superhero onscreen, but the man apparently also possesses superhuman strength IRL, because he recently proved he can split an apple in half WITH HIS BARE HANDS.

Paul proved his hidden talent this week during an interview promoting his new Netflix series Living With Yourself. His co-star Aisling Bea said that the first time that they met, Paul did a "strange thing" when he was leaving the room, which was splitting an apple in half with his bare hands. And uh yeah, that's strange! I truly don't know how you're supposed to react to that, especially when you first meet someone.

Either way, she presented him with an apple so he could demonstrate it again and he was up for the challenge. Though he acknowledged it was a "tight one," making it a bit more difficult, he only struggled for like, a second, before that sucker split right in half.

Aisling freaked out, as she should because it's truly a wild sight. Then Paul proved he's a gentleman by handing her the other half so they could both have a snack and declaring her to be the "other half of [his] granny smith." OK CUTE but I'm still freaking out about the apple splitting over here, as were tons of people in the replies to the video.

Between this and becoming a meme after his recent appearance on Hot Ones, it's a big week for our boy Paul! Now I'm off to practice splitting an apple and to probably injure myself trying.
