Tom Hanks Proves He's Still Got It!
Hey there, friends. Let me tell you about something pretty cool that happened at the 2020 Oscars. Everyone knows Tom Hanks as the iconic actor who brought Forrest Gump to life. But did you know he also has some serious upper body strength? At 63 years old, this guy didn’t hesitate to drop down and do push-ups alongside a U.S. Army sergeant right there on the red carpet. Now, that’s what I call impressive! Tom wasn’t just keeping up for show—he actually matched the soldier’s pace until it was time to stand back up. Clearly, the man takes his fitness seriously.
After showing off those muscles, Tom and his lovely wife, Rita Wilson, walked into the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. They were all smiles as they mingled with other A-list celebrities. During their evening, they bumped into Bradley Cooper, the talented director behind "A Star Is Born." Rita, always prepared, whipped out her phone to snap a quick selfie with her husband and Bradley. Can you imagine having a keepsake like that? Talk about a memory to treasure!

Later that evening, Tom shook hands with Leonardo DiCaprio and had a brief chat. Now, here’s something interesting about Tom: don’t call him a "nice guy" unless you really mean it. According to Tom himself, he doesn’t tolerate people taking advantage of his good nature. “If anybody takes advantage of my good nature, they’ll have hell to pay,” he told The Herald Sun. He went on to explain that those who’ve crossed him would say, “Oh, he’s not that nice a guy.” And when the hammer comes down, it comes down hard. Tom knows how to handle his business, and he does it relentlessly when necessary.

But let’s not forget, Tom isn’t all about being tough. He’s a family man who puts his loved ones first. In fact, he once shared with Today’s Savannah Guthrie that sometimes he wonders if he’s truly deserving of all his success. “I don’t think there’s a person on the planet Earth, no matter where they are — unless they are a sociopath — who doesn’t have a moment somehow where they think, Am I a fraud?” he admitted. “Am I actually what this is? Am I actually being true to myself enough to know that at any given moment I truly am present?”
