Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson had 'everything crossed' and reveals 'sign from God' after his plane suffered malfunction in mid-air

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson was forced to miss a major event after his plane malfunctioned over the Pacific Ocean.

Johnson was supposed to attend the opening game of the UFL season in Houston, Texas on Friday, however, he was forced to return home to Hawaii.

Speaking on social media platform X, the WWE superstar revealed he was heading to the event as planned before the captain of his plane came out personally they would need to turn back due to a malfunction.

“Last night we had some issues with the plane," Johnson began.

"About 35-40 minutes into the flight, the pilot comes back to me, he gets down on one knee and he faces me, face-to-face, and it’s just me on the plane, just me and the crew.

The WWE star continued: "He says, ‘Mr. Johnson, I’m sorry to inform you, but we cannot continue to fly over the ocean, we have a problem, we have to turn the plane around and we have to land back in Hawaii. You have my word, I will land you back safely on the island.'"

Johnson explained that he was extremely thankful for how his captain acted in the circumstances as it kept him calm in an extremely worrying moment.

“I so appreciate his demeanour, his name is Captain David, I appreciate his demeanour in that moment," he continued.

"He explained to me what happened, he said it was a hydraulics issue with overheating, and he said there were some issues we could work out as we’re in the air and then there’s some that we’re not gonna take a chance, especially over the ocean, and especially when the computer on the airplane is saying, ‘Don’t fly over the ocean anymore, you’ve gotta get back to land.

“I so appreciate the crew, I appreciate them getting us back to land safely, I appreciate God, the universe. I took this as a sign from God and the universe. I wish, though, I was there in Houston, Texas.”
