The old saying goes: You should never meet your heroes. Why? Because they couldn't possibly live up to your expectations. That is unless your hero is Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.

The old saying goes: You should never meet your heroes. Why? Because they couldn't possibly live up to your expectations. That is unless your hero is Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. ScreenJunkies.com contributor (and my wildly enthusiastic friend) Nick Mundy sat down with his idol at the Hercules press junket. The following video proves that Nick Mundy should never get past security, and The Rock is every bit as awesome as Nick dreamed he'd be. Enjoy!

I would also love to hear if you've ever met your hero. How'd it go? Please comment below.
