This Man Has Dedicated His Life to Looking Exactly Like Vin Diesel | Local Legends

There is a man in Chiang Rai, Thailand who has dedicated his life to becoming Vin Diesel.

Growing up, Arthid Duangsri struggled with his identity. What’s more, he couldn’t get girls. But one day, his friend pushed his long hair back and said “you know what, if you were bald you would look like Vin Diesel.” This changed everything. He shaved his head, underwent a dramatic gym regimen and became the Thai Vin Diesel.

After his photo went viral around the world, he is now a local celebrity much beloved by the community. Every day when he clocks off his job in IT, he gets fast and furious on the streets of his hometown.
