He is 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighs 260 pounds of robust muscle.
However, Dwayne Johnson’s Rock-like body disrupted his spectacular arrival at the HBO show Ballers launch on Thursday, as he struggled to climb out of a sports car on Miami Beach.
He arrived in an over-the-top way that would have been appropriate for his WWE days, zooming up to the screening site in a dazzling black Pagani Huayra that costs $1.3 million to purchase.

Dwayne Johnson’s spectacular entrance at the premiere of his HBO series Ballers was disrupted when he struggled to get out of a sports car in Miami Beach on Thursday.
However, video appears that getting out of the vehicle is more difficult than getting in, as the 44-year-old male mountain struggled to exit the sports car as its gull-wing doors opened.
But if there is one thing he has learned throughout his 17 WWE championship reigns, it is that persistence pays off, as he was eventually able to emerge from the van, much to the delight of the crowd.
And he was soon flashing his pearly whites inside, where he posed beside his mother Ata and daughter Simone.
Dwayne was dressed smartly but casually in a tailored gray suit, white open-necked shirt, and black leather shoes.

Unflappable: He was back to his smiling best as he made it inside to pose on the red carpet.
It seems every entertainment project the former grapple star touches turns to gold these days.
That is certainly true of Ballers, which, in its first season, became HBO’s top-rated comedy, beating the critically acclaimed Veep.
In the popular show, set in the realm of professional sports, he portrays Spencer Strasmore, a retired NFL player turned financial manager for young athletes.
The fact that the Fast And Furious star is the highest-paid actor on Forbes’ 2016 Celebrity 100 list, which was released this week, adds to his popularity. He jumped to number 19 on the list, up from 81 in 2015, with earnings of $64.5 million.
