After reports emerged detailing Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s diet (which includes over 800 pounds of cod per year), one brave/stupid reporter knew two things. One, it was absolutely insane. Two, he had to try it. This video details the ordeal.
This is why you shouldn’t try The Rock’s diet at home
This should surprise no one.
In the video’s description, Complex reporter Sean Evans writes:
Each meal (and there were SEVEN of them) weighed as much as a Range Rover tire. I’d be forking food into my mouth for five straight minutes, and the plate would look exactly as it did when it was put in front of me. Eating became as psychologically taxing as it was physically painful, but—as someone who can eat a whole frozen pizza like it’s nothing—the volume of food isn’t what derailed me.You see, not only does The Rock eat A LOT of food, but everything he eats tastes like butt. When Complex asked me to do this project, I kept my aversion to fish a secret which in retrospect was probably a mistake. The Rock eats three pounds of cod on the daily. While I might’ve been able to wolf down one eight-ounce filet Fear Factor-style, it was the featured entree in almost every meal. I knew by 10 a.m. that it was going to be a long, shitty day. I was constantly dreading the next meal, which had as much to do with hating the food as it did with being ridiculously full.
