One time, during an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, on the show ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’, The Rock revealed an unknown story about his family. He began how he has very tough family members and was telling the names of the pro-wrestlers in his family when he came upon his uncle, King Tonga or aka Haku.

The Rock continued, “I think this was in Buffalo and after the match, some of these fans started getting a little unruly when he was eating dinner and he was not only the toughest, one of the toughest men in the world but also one of the most kind gentle guys, and this is a heartwarming story.”

He then started telling how the fan kept pestering his uncle and told how he was not tough, while his uncle politely asked the fan to go and let him eat his dinner. Johnson then claimed, “Finally, the guy pushed my uncle, my uncle gets up, grabs him by the head and he bites his nose off.” 

Johnson then claimed how his uncle then spat the nose on the ground, while the man’s wife freaked out and called the cops. And when the cops showed up, they saw his uncle still sitting and eating dinner.

He said, “I do remember having a meeting with him just in Texas just before WrestleMania and we were having a meeting about the movie and his alarm would go off at like 3:17 p.m. and he would go to the fridge and there would be turkey and rice with ‘3:17 p.m.’ written on it and he would microwave it. It was so regimented. It’s extraordinary.”
