The Rock Pranks His Co-Stars

Looks like you gotta keep an eye on Dwayne Johnson when you’re working around him.  The Rock showed a behind-the-scenes clip of Ballers, where he decided to mess with one of the crew members. Here’s the story:

“When you’re evil, you gotta commit to the laugh. When you see this huge green screen scene in #Ballers this summer, I would’ve just crashed my monster truck and me and the announcer will be standing in the middle of 30,000 fans in Las Vegas who go WILD when I announce I’m bringing an NFL team to Vegas. Before the scene, our prop master @ottoprops44 who’s in charge of all my props on set says ~ Hey DJ, I laid down pads and soft black blankets for you to throw your helmet on since the helmet is expensive, we don’t want it to crack and we only have one for the whole shoot tonight. Me ~ You got it brother Otto, I’ll gently toss the helmet on the soft and safe black blankets. Then I purposely throw the helmet on the ground, it cracks and we can’t use it anymore. Director yells, ‘Cut’. The whole crew laughs, Otto cries and I continue to be the evil a–hole always looking to have fun with the crew.”

When you're evil, you gotta commit to the laugh ?

The whole crew laughs, Otto cries and I continue to be the evil asshole always looking to have fun with the crew. ? #OnSet #Ballers #LuvThisCrew #AlwaysABlast #NFLTeamRelocations #ArtImitatingLife #AndFuckThisHelmet ?
