He was not injured
Arnold Schwarzenegger was attacked at a jump-rope competition at the Arnold Classic Africa event in Johannesburg, South Africa.
A man, who for some angry felt compelled to ambush a 71-year-old, fly-kicked Schwarzenegger from behind, failing to knock him down.
The culprit was pounced on by a man who appeared to be one of the actor’s security guard.
Schwarzenegger then tweeted out a video of the attack, saying: “And if you have to share the video (I get it), pick a blurry one without whatever he was yelling so he doesn’t get the spotlight. By the way… block or charge?”

On Facebook, he said: “Thanks for your concerns, but there is nothing to worry about. I thought I was just jostled by the crowd, which happens a lot. I only realised I was kicked when I saw the video like all of you. I’m just glad the idiot didn’t interrupt my Snapchat.”
