A TikToker has revealed how he 'changed The Rock's life' during an interview with the famous wrestler-turned-actor.
Interviewer Speedy Morman sent Dwayne Johnson 'into an existential crisis' after asking him a simple but very important question.
In a TikTok video captioned 'I changed The Rock's life', Speedy explained he interviewed the actor several weeks previously ,and during the interview preparation, he realized Johnson 'probably doesn't have that much fun because he's always f**king working'.

The interviewer began to wonder whether or not the actor was 'actually happy', and so he decided to find out.
A clip of the interview shows Speedy telling The Rock: "You, if I'm honest, don't seem like you have a lot of fun."
While Johnson laughs in response, Speedy presses: "Do you have fun? Do you enjoy this?"
Johnson praised the question, noting how much he 'loved' it, before asking what Speedy meant by fun, admitting he actually had to 'think about' the question.
Speedy revealed Johnson later referenced the pair's discussion together in a later interview, the actor calling it one of his 'favorite interviews ever'.
The Rock continued: "I went home and I was talking to my family about that and I was like, it made me think, I should have more fun."
And then on Monday (December 2), Johnson took to his Instagram to reveal he was doing something he hadn't done 'in easily over a year'.
"Putting my feet up, relaxing. We all work hard and we should enjoy and put our feet up and I know a lot of you guys do it well," Johnson explained. "I need to do a better job at it. I need to do a better job at just stopping and enjoying the hard work. I'm on my way, step one."
Speedy commented on the post: "Finally. Happy for u bro, stay awhile."
The Rock replied: "@speedymorman you were the one who motivated me to do this, brother."
He even sent the interviewer a voice note. *Silent tear*
And it's not taken long for social media users to weigh in.
One TikToker wrote: "You sent the rock into an existential crisis lol."
"Bro smelled what The Rock was cooking, and told him he’s missing an ingredient," another added.
A third commented: "Imagine being asked a million different questions but never being asked, 'You okay, bro?'"
And a fourth resolved: "Making someone self reflect is true journalism indeed."
