Geocache Description:


The Series

D.J.F. – The Dwayne Johnson Filmography series. A number of traditional geocaches scattered around the lanes of Herefordshire, each with three things in common: named for one of Dwayne Johnson’s films, easy access, whatever the weather, plus a common camouflaging technique.

These geocaches have been placed along some of my regular running routes. More will be added as more films are made. They are numbered in order of film release dates and can be attempted in any order. On the initial publication of the series, there are 41 geocaches. As more films are made, more geocaches will be added.

I run these single track lanes and other runners, intrepid walkers and cyclists with stamina will enjoy the challenge. There are several places around the area where cars can be parked safely.

Those geocachers aiming to attempt the series by car need to remember that Herefordshire is the land of tractors, tourists and narrow lanes (with grassy central reservations). It would be advisable to have an experienced driving buddy who can remain with the vehicle at all times.

This Film

The Other Guys is a 2010 American action comedy film directed and co-written by Adam McKay. It stars Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg, and features Dwayne Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson.  NYPD Detectives Christopher Danson and P.K. Highsmith (Dwayne Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson) are the baddest and most beloved cops in New York City. Two desks over and one back, sit Detectives Allen Gamble (Will Ferrell) and Terry Hoitz (Mark Wahlberg). They're not heroes - they're "the Other Guys." But every cop has his or her day and soon Gamble and Hoitz stumble into a seemingly innocuous case no other detective wants to touch that could turn into New York City's biggest crime. It's the opportunity of their lives, but do these guys have the right stuff?

 

Who Is Dwayne Johnson?

Dwayne Douglas Johnson, 6ft 5in,  was born into a professional wrestling family on May 2nd 1972. An injury ended his college football career, so he entered the ring with the Word Wrestling Federation becoming known as “The Rock". He has since gone on to become a box-office star, appearing in films including 'The Scorpion King,' 'Hercules,' and 'The Fast and the Furious' franchise.

As "The Rock," he famously feuded with wrestler Steve Austin and won the WWF/WWE Heavyweight title numerous times. Johnson then translated this fame into a successful acting career, appearing in projects including The Mummy Returns, the HBO series Ballers and Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.

Off screen, Johnson has three daughters, one from his marriage and two with his current partner.  Johnson has opened up about some of his early-life struggles, including his family's eviction from their Hawaii home when he was just 14. He has spoken about the time his mother tried to commit suicide by walking into traffic the following year, an incident that left him battling depression.
