The Rock Dressed As Pikachu Is The Precious Easter Gift We All Sorely Need

In case you had any doubt remaining in your mind (why would you you heathen), The Rock is the greatest person currently walking the face of the planet. There’s no one else that even comes close.

The man born Dwayne Johnson is one of those rare people gifted with an extra 8 hours every day to get the myriad of things he’s able to do done, not least of which is maintain a frame that’s less “actual human” as it is more “several steaks stapled to a brick wall.”
And above all else, Rock is a devout family man first and foremost. So spending time with the loved ones is always high on the agenda.
Fortunately, thanks to Easter and the blessed coupla days off that allows just about everyone (he says, weeping from behind his keyboard), Johnson was able to get some quality time with his tiny humans in, which apparently in his house involves “dressing as Pokemon and being the most adorably giant Pikachu ever seen.”
Rock’s latest Instagram post is him – all 196cm/120kg off him – squeezed into a Pikachu suit which someone must have had a very head scratching moment sussing the dimensions for, playfully chasing his very small daughter Jasmine around the house while dog Hobbes tries to keep up.
Holy. Shit. Look.

The first time Jasmine’s favorite character, Pikachu came to visit her months ago she was only crawling. For Easter Sunday @laurenhashianofficial and I thought, Pikachu should make a special visit once again. Well, Pikachu didn’t account for the fact that now Jazzy RUNS and for 2hrs straight she wants to play her new favorite game, “I run away and you chase me Pikachu. And you’re not allowed to take a break until I go night night”. At the end of the vid you can hear her yell, “Peekyu” because she can’t say, Pikachu. I’m tired, today’s my only day off, it’s 118 degrees in this costume and Hobbs keep trying to p*ss on my leg. And I luv every minute of it. Bring it on. It’s what daddy’s do. Happy Easter to you guys and enjoy your families. #Rockachu #DaddyPuttinInWork #TheGameThatNeverEnds #PikachuLooksBloated

While there’s many, many questions I have about this (namely, where the hell do you even get a Pikachu costume that size and also please send one to me immediately), the one prevailing thought remains:

If a human being, aged 44, can have as much energy as The Rock does, then holy hell is that child ever gonna be full of beans growing up.
Put yr running shoes on, Rocky. You’re gonna need ’em.
