“Not Really a Part of the Gene”: Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Youngest, Starts His Quest to Achieve a Feat Even His Dad Couldn’t

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s rise to fame was slow and steady. After winning the Mr. Universe title 5 times and the Mr. Olympia title 7 times, the ace bodybuilder tried his hands at acting. Becoming a household name, ‘The Terminator star’ earned himself the image of “Hollywood’s Greatest Action Hero.” One can easily visualize Arnold posing with his iconic smirk or beating around the bad guys. But him dancing? No image strikes, right?

It is very untypical for the Schwarzenegger shaking his leg. However, there’s someone from the family who is all set to break the set image. And that’s Joseph, Arnold’s youngest son and, as his fans call, “The Young Oak.”
