A video of Vin Diesel in his 20s, wearing a leather vest with no shirt underneath, promoting Street Sharks. It sounds too good to be true, right? But it’s real. It’s so, so real.
The clip, from 1994, was uploaded to YouTube a few months ago, but is now circulating around the Internet after popping up on Twitter and then on Kotaku. He appears to be making a sales pitch for Street Sharks at a toy fair, and he gets so into it.
Please, we urge you to enjoy this completely unexpected footage of the man who’d later become Dominic Toretto freaking out over something called a “hand shark.”
