Hollywood star Sylvester Stallone is usually known for his action roles and is one of the most iconic actors of his generation. This has led many to believe that Sly is a serious and stoic person like the characters he portrays in his movies. However, this is far from the case as Stallone often shows his cheerful and childish side proving that he can be a fun-loving person if he wanted to.

Moreover, he even went a step further in proving this point after he tried to prank his brother, Frank Stallone, while he was watching a boxing match. Stallone also shared a video of this hilarious prank that he pulled on his brother who was clueless about what was going on.

According to Sly, this was just friendly banter with his brother as he revealed that he had a bad habit of ‘goofing’ with Frank. “I’ve always had a very bad habit of “goofing” on my brother. This is a little excerpt from a few years ago when he fell asleep during a boxing match. So I thought I would feed him some sugar to wake him up. Check him out,” he wrote in the caption.

In the video, Stallone feeds chocolate to his brother who fell asleep during the boxing match. However, his brother turned out to be a great sport as he enjoyed the chocolate after waking up. In addition, this video also drew in some wild reactions from fans who had some hilarious replies.
