Dwayne Douglas Johnson, also known by his ring name The Rock, is an American actor, former professional wrestler, and former American soccer player.

The artist is world famous and recognized for his physique and his tattoos. He has three tattoos with deep meanings related to his roots, his personality, and his family.

  • Tribal on the arm:

This tattoo covers his left arm, shoulder and a part of his back. According to the actor, this style of design was a tribute to his mother, of Samoan origin. The composition has 10 parts, which tell about his life and his family.

  • Warrior Spirit in the chest:

The warrior spirit tattooed on his chest also has a Polynesian origin. About its meaning, the actor says: "In Hawaii, we have a word called ?mana?, which means spirit. The ?mana of the warrior? is what fills me. It is the center of the symbolic story that my tatau (tattoo) tells. My mana is my DNA, that keeps me grounded and hungry. Find your mana and let it guide you. Inspire you to be a little better today than yesterday?

  • Brahma bull on the arm:

The actor first tattooed a bull on his arm more than 20 years ago. The original design was much smaller and less detailed than the current one.

The new version represents evolution, blood and sweat, and every detail symbolizes facts of his personal history. Cracks in the bone represent life's hard lessons; Horns point forward, always symbolizing progress; The eye represents life and energy.
