Actor and fitness-icon Arnold Schwarzenegger says he loved having his kids on set when they were younger as they saw watching him make action movies like "Christmas".
Admitting that although being known as an action star can get frustrating, the 67-year-old "Terminator: Genisys" actor said he liked his children's enthusiasm about seeing him at work, reported Femalefirst.
"People know me as kind of the action star, and how many actors or people have their own M47 tank? I used to drive an American tank when I was in the Austrian army and they handed it over when it was outdated. They wanted to destroy the tanks completely but they shipped this one over and I drive it around. It works 100 per cent!
"My kids' friends, every time we did an action scene, they said, 'Make sure you're gonna be on the set when your Daddy blows things up'. It was king of Christmas for them, so I think people would enjoy driving around and crushing things in a tank," said former Mr Olympia," Schwarzenegger said.
