Who is Eric Fields, the lookalike of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson?

As we mentioned earlier, Fields is a 37-year-old patrol lieutenant at Decatur, Alabama’s Morgan County Sheriff’s Office. While Johnson is billed at 6’4 and weighs 260 lbs, Eric is reported to be 6’2” and 230 lbs. Fields’ Twitter account says he has 17 years of experience.

According to an AL.com report, Fields previously worked at the jail, investigated crimes, and worked with the special victims unit. Alongside this, Fields worked with drug endangered children.

During his service, Fields got promoted to corporal, sergeant, and lieutenant. As a part of his lieutenant duties, Fields is a firearm safety instructor and works to help novice officers with tactical training. He is also a sworn deputy U.S. Marshal.

When asked how does he respond to the comments regarding his resemblance, Fields revealed he takes it as ‘a running joke’. “I’ve been called The Rock and Vin Diesel’s love child,” Fields said. “I go along with it. It’s humorous. It’s flattering. It could be worse people, I guess.”
