Arnold Schwarzenegger is in Johannesburg in South Africa to participate in Arnold Classic Africa a sporting and bodybuilding event. He was chatting with his fans when an unknown man attacked him from behind giving him a dangerous flying kick. The assailant was subdued by the bodyguards and the ex- California governor only had to slightly move after the impact.

Arnie then took to twitter stating "Thanks for your concerns, there is nothing to worry about. I thought I was just jostled by the crowd, which happens a lot. I only realized I was kicked when I saw the video like all of you. I’m just glad the idiot didn’t interrupt my Snapchat. Do me a favor, instead of sharing the video of the guy who wants to be famous, watch some of our @ArnoldSports athletes like this young hero proving that fitness is for everyone who deserve to be famous …And if you have to share the video (I get it), pick a blurry one without whatever he was yelling so he doesn’t get the spotlight.”

And if you have to share the video (I get it), pick a blurry one without whatever he was yelling so he doesn’t get the spotlight.

By the way... block or charge? pic.twitter.com/TEmFRCZPEA
