In 2014, the film "Hercules" was released, and in 2015 everyone was looking forward to the next series of "Fast and the Furious".

Today, this guy is not only the biggest and most powerful, but also one of the highest paid Hollywood actors. For most fans, he is a model of courage and strength.
We are also interested in Dwayne Jones' tattoos, of which he has two. Both are located on the hands, and both are fraught with hidden meaning.
The first tattoo - on the right biceps - is made in the form bull head. This is an example, symbolizing the sign under which Dwayne was born. Even if we discard the topic of horoscopes, a bull tattoo on the body of such a person is unlikely to cause anyone bewilderment.
The meaning of Dwayne Johnson's second rock tattoo is much more interesting. On the left shoulder of the actor there is a voluminous. It is known that each stroke of this drawing was made in honor of certain life events. The application process was accompanied by traditional tribal rituals.
On the tattoo itself, you can see a number of classical motifs. This is a Samoan warrior, the sun that illuminates the path and brings good luck, the eyes of the ancestors and a dozen more elements. It will be difficult for a person who is not familiar with the features of the Polynesian style to immediately make out the meaning of all parts of the picture. Nevertheless, even for an uninitiated person, such work arouses admiration, curiosity and interest. What kind of tattoo famous person seem to you the closest to your taste? Write in the comments!
