Boasting over 390 million followers on Instagram, it is safe to say Dwayne Johnson is one of the most followed celebs in the world. His fame, however, isn’t limited to just social media. At 51, Johnson regularly receives letters from his fans, which reaches his office. And he admittedly obliges to the demands the notes carry from the fans.

Recently, Johnson made a rare change to his routine to give his 391 million followers on Instagram a sneak peek of his interaction with fans. In the process, he endorsed a high school teacher from Indiana.

Johnson shared a lengthy video on Instagram on October 15 wherein he spoke about surprising a high school teacher, who has endured hardships in the last couple of years.

The Great One said, “I normally never post these on Instagram. You guys never see them, they get sent directly to the fans and families, but I woke up this morning and it was just so heavy on my heart man.” He then introduced his fans to Mallory Clifford, who works at Garrett High School as the school track coach and guidance counselor.

Johnson hails Clifford’s courage and calls himself her biggest fan. “I’m now your biggest fan, quite possibly, literally your biggest fan, because you know me, I’m The Rock and I’m as big as a tyrannosaurus rex and old as a tyrannosaurus rex,” The Brahma Bull said, treating his fans to some self-deprecating humor.

Though he doesn’t mention the kind of distress Clifford and her four kids have been through, Johnson continually showered praises on them for their grit. He also joked about firing one of his employees for failing to deliver another letter, possibly sent by the same person, ahead of Valentine’s Day.

To make up for the missed chance, he also hummed a tune from Sam Cooke. This isn’t the first time Johnson – one of the most recognizable faces in the world – has reached out to a fan or responded to a call from his admirers. Recently, he also spoke about fame and its pros and cons.

While he joked that being famous allows him to have a lot of free tacos, he said that fame also allows him to impact people in a positive way around the world. Johnson also managed to back up his claim a few months ago.

Themba Gorimbo, a UFC fighter from Zimbabwe, who was struggling to make ends meet, having just $7 in his account, found help from Johnson. After hearing Gorimbo’s story, Johnson – who once had $7 in his account – surprised the fighter with a house. The two also met in person and shared a heartfelt moment which was received well by people around the world.
