Dwayne Johnsons (The Rock) and Alabama police officer

Dwayne Johnson shocked as he reacts to frankly alarming doppelgänger

Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) has finally seen his double and is just as floored as we are by the uncanny likeness.

Last week images of police officer Eric Fields of Alabama’s Morgan County Sheriff’s Office went viral after punters pointed out the Patrol Lieutenant’s eerie likeness to the WWE star turned Hollywood mega-earner.

Following a post shared to Morgan County’s Facebook earlier this month showing off Johnson, sorry we mean Fields, standing beside a police car people were doing all sorts of double-takes.

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is The Rock moonlighting as a police officer?
Even locals of Morgan County wanted to see this magnificent specimen of doppelgänger as the Facebook page wrote: ‘This gentlemen recently ran into our Sgt. Mason and informed him he wanted to meet our Deputy that people say looks like “The Rock”.’

Well, it’s not just ‘people’, dear Facebook editor, but The Rock himself, as Johnson shared his own disbelief at his long lost twin.

He wrote on Twitter alongside a side-by-side comparison between him and Fields: ‘Oh sh*t! Wow. Guy on the left is way cooler.

‘Stay safe brother and thank you for your service. One day we’ll drink @Teremana and I need to hear all your “Rock stories” because I KNOW you got ‘em #ericfields.’

As a few fans of the actor pointed out, should he want to take a day off being one of the highest-earning actors in Hollywood, he has himself a fine stand-in, with one noting: ‘A new body double if your regular man gets injured, just a thought.’

The Rock doesn’t get injured, but anyway…

Another follower was thirsting for blood, chiming in: ‘Now y’all will have to fight to the death as per doppelganger law! I wonder if he can do the eyebrow as well… an eyebrow square off would be priceless!’

Dwayne Johnsons responds to ‘identical’ Alabama police officer doppelganger: ‘Oh s***!’

‘Never seen a more identical doppelganger celeb,’ said one shocked fan

Dwayne Johnson has responded after an image of his “crazy” lookalike went viral on social media.

Last week, an Alabama police officer gained widespread attention after people noted that he looked “identical” to the Jungle Cruise star.

Many people took to social media to comment on how “uncanny” the resemblance between Johnson and Morgan County Sheriff’s Office Patrol Lieutenant Eric Fields is.
Speaking to AL.com, Fields said that he has been called “The Rock and Vin Diesel’s love child”. The 37-year-old added: “I go along with it. It’s humours. It’s flattering. It could be worse people, I guess.”

Johnson has since been alerted to the growing online presence of his lookalike and has agreed on their striking resemblance.

“Oh s**! Wow. Guy on the left is way cooler,” wrote Johnson on Twitter, resharing a photo of Fields on the left and himself on the right.

“Stay safe brother and thank you for your service. One day we’ll drink @Teremana and I need to hear all your ‘Rock stories’ because I KNOW you got ‘em. #ericfields.”

The actor launched Teremana, his own brand of tequila, in 2019.

Fans commented on Johnson’s post in shock at the physical similarities between the two.

“Never seen a more identical doppelganger celeb,” wrote one user. Another added: “Wait so this isnt actually just you?”

A third person wrote: “I can’t believe the left pic is really NOT YOU!”

Doppelgänger

A doppelgänger or doppelganger is a biologically unrelated look-alike, or a double, of a living person.

(/ˈdɒpəlɡɛŋər, -ɡæŋər/; German: [ˈdɔpl̩ˌɡɛŋɐ] (About this soundlisten), literally “double-walker”)

In fiction and mythology, a doppelgänger is often portrayed as a ghostly or paranormal phenomenon and usually seen as a harbinger of bad luck. Other traditions and stories equate a doppelgänger with an evil twin. In modern times, the term twin stranger is occasionally used.

The word “doppelgänger” is often used in a more general and neutral sense, and in slang, to describe any person who physically resembles another person.
