Arnold Schwarzenegger recently took it upon himself to fill in a pothole in his Los Angeles neighborhood that he said he had been "waiting" for three weeks to be repaired.
The "Terminator" actor posted a video on his social media account of himself and his "team" working up a sweat as they poured concrete into the hole.

"I always say, let’s not complain, let’s do something about it. Here you go."
