      As a foreigner, Terry Crews is an American gem of an export + a role model that I aspire to be like. What a great man - he is the antithesis of a toxic male. I feel like I wanna hang out with the guy (contagious personality) and learn how to maintain his mindset. I wish....
      Edit: Plus, he's a PC Gamer who loves MMORPGs - how awesome is that?! Well, I find it awesome at least.

    He is so right, if Idiocracy had gotten a proper theatrical release, it would have been a hit. Look at how beloved it is now.

    I really like and appreciate that he gives really career and life lessons when he is interviewing. Just give attention to the part where he said he is going to change his attitude and be a really professional on the set and after that Stallone changed the script's some part and gave him the role to rescue him.

    What about Old Spice? That's gotta be one of his most iconic roles.

      Terry was "the Old Spice guy" to myself and everyone I knew until B99. I'd seen him in other things, and I knew his name, but he was just so iconic as the Old Spice guy that it was the most natural thing to call him. I'm really surprised that it didn't get a single mention in this video.

      I guess they only wanted to focus on movies and TV shows.
