Arnold Schwarzenegger faced an attack while in South Africa where he was attending the Arnold Classic Africa, a sports event held annually in Johannesburg.
The incident occurred as the 71-year-old actor and former California governor was watching a rope-skipping competition, capturing the moment on his phone.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a man ran up behind him and delivered a jump-kick to his back.
Following the attack, security swiftly apprehended the assailant and removed him from the vicinity.
In the aftermath, a voice could be heard repeatedly clamoring for a Lamborghini, creating a bizarre and chaotic scene.
Despite the shocking assault, Schwarzenegger appeared unfazed by the situation.
Shortly after the incident, he left the scene and later shared a video on Twitter where he interacted with fans as if nothing had happened.
In response to concerns raised by the public, Schwarzenegger reassured everyone of his well-being, stating that he initially thought he was merely being jostled by the crowd before realizing the extent of the attack upon viewing the video footage.
He humorously mentioned his relief that the incident did not disrupt his Snapchat activities, displaying a resilient and light-hearted attitude towards the unfortunate event.
Moreover, Schwarzenegger urged his followers to shift their focus away from the attacker and instead spotlight the young athletes participating in the festival.
By emphasizing the positive aspects of the event and redirecting attention towards the talented individuals showcasing their skills, he sought to overshadow the negative incident with a message of resilience and unity within the fitness community.
