The man responsible for the amazing special effects behind Arnold’s most iconic movie franchise, ‘Terminator’, was Stan Winston. He was so good at his craft that his work is still looked up in the industry for motivation. Giving insights into his work once, Stan said in an interview“It’s not about technology. It’s about writers writing wonderful stories with fantastic characters and me being able to create a visual image that’s beyond what you would expect.” Sharing a picture of the time when Schwarzenegger went to the Stan Winston Studio with his daughter Katherine, Arnold revealed in the book that she was frightened when she saw a statue of Terminator. 

“Sometimes it’s hard to explain to your toddler what you do at the office. Katherine was freaked out by the Terminator mannequin at the studio of special effects wizard Stan Winston,” wrote Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Talking about one such moment, Arnold said, “I remember she’s seeing me with this half skull, and with blood running down and half human being, you know, my face. I mean, imagine a one-year-old baby seeing her dad like that! It was freak-out city. She started screaming and crying and freaking out.”
