Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is a beast of a man who spends nearly his entire life pushing the boundaries of athletic physical perfection. He’s probably the closest thing Hollywood has to a literal Superman. To keep him fuelled for his intense workout regime, he has to eat a ridiculous amount of food – 7 protein-rich meals a day – so what happens if an ordinary human tries to keep up?

They puke.
