Before you laugh at this TBT pic of ‘The Rock’ from his younger days, think about the style you were sporting at 16. For most, it’s not a pretty picture. The only thing you really can do is find the humor in it all, which is exactly what ‘The Rock‘ does in his recent Instagram post.

Along with mocking his mustache, which he refers to as “a dead caterpillar on his lip” and the “porn stache”, Johnson also touches upon some poor decisions he made as a teenager. Fortunately for his fans across the world, he was able to turn it around and find more positive ways to unleash his energy. Instead of hitting the bars, Johnson began hitting the weightroom, and the rest is history. But it’s always good to look back every now and then, and be thankful for how far you’ve come.
