Arnold Schwarzenegger terminates neighbourhood pothole

Arnold Schwarzenegger is not just an action star, he’s also a man of action.

The former governor of California is well-versed in public works projects and on Tuesday (Wednesday AEST) he posted a video on social media showing him and his team filling in a hole on a street.

“Today, after the whole neighbourhood has been upset about this giant pothole that’s been screwing up cars and bicycles for weeks, I went out with my team and fixed it,” Schwarzenegger tweeted from his legacy verified account.

“I always say, let’s not complain, let’s do something about it. Here you go.”

In the video a driver stops to thank the star and he responds.

“This is crazy, for weeks I’ve been waiting for this hole to be closed,” he tells her through the car window.

The video has since gone viral with over 2.3 million views and the tweet’s been seen over 6.5 million times with over 43,000 Likes.

Elena Stern, a senior public information director for the Department of Public Works in Los Angeles, told NBC News that it was not a pothole.

It’s a “service trench that relates to active, permitted work being performed at the location by SoCal Gas, who expects the work to be completed by the end of May.”

CNN has reached out to Stern for additional comment.
