By Brent Furdyk.

There are arguably few stars busier than Dwayne “The Rock”; Johnson, yet the former WWE superstar proved he’s still the champ by taking time out of his schedule to visit hospitalized children while filming Baywatch in Savannah, Georgia.

Johnston posted a photo on Instagram of himself getting a fist-bump from a child named Aiden at Savannah’s Memorial Health hospital.

“Look at the concentration on lil’ Aiden’s face,”; he writes, adding: “good Lord I wish I had Aiden’s concentration when I was in my high school math classes. I wouldn’t have failed Algebra twice.”;

In his post, Johnson also thanks the “hard-working and caring” hospital staff, and sends a special greeting to the patients he visited: “To all the kids I met – you guys keep smiling and staying strong. All the mamas and daddy’s I met, y’all stay strong too. Gotta tell ya little stuff like this will always be the best part of fame.”;
