Watch: The Rock Will Melt Your Heart

Watch: The Rock Will Melt Your Heart

Though we used to be a little scared of him back in his WWF days (he’s HUGE), Dwayne Johnson AKA The Rock is undoubtedly one of the nicest, sweetest men in showbiz. He’s all muscles on the outside, but marshmallow on the inside and he’s got a smile that would light up a city. OK, we fancy the pants off him; guilty.

But this just makes us adore him even more. Here, he takes time out of his busy schedule to make this gorgeous little girl feel all kinds of special. He shared the video below to his Instagram profile and needless to say, he’s left many of us in a puddle of emotion. Also, lest we forget, he’s strong enough to pull an airplane on a rope, by himself (well, we’re sure the little girl took some of the weight too).

The Rock; our hero.

When beautiful little 2yr old Kai visits our set and she wants to “pull the airplane” all by herself. Well, she gets to pull the airplane… all by herself.?#GreatJobHoney#AmazingStrengthYouHave#UncleRockPullsAHamstring #OnSet#AwesomeMemories#CentralIntelligence

And here he is, fawning over his daughter. Not able. What other dad do you know would hashtag ‘Regardless of how old you get I will always grab and kiss you in public’ with total pride?

Very proud of my baby girl and her 8th grade graduation today. Greatest bond is that between a father and his daughter. Love you so much, keep up the excellent work and congratulations!#GotYourBack#DadForLife#RegardlessOfHowOldYouGet#IWillAlwaysGrabAndKissYouInPublic

And just because it’s Friday, here he is being adorable with a dog.
