Earthquake movie brought back bad memories for Dwayne Johnson

Filming earthquake sequences for new disaster movie SAN ANDREAS brought back bad memories of the terrifying hurricane seasons from DWAYNE JOHNSON’s youth in Florida.
The action man plays a rescue helicopter pilot in the film and admits he had no problem channelling the sense of family and drama in the new blockbuster’s pivotal scenes – because he has lived through similar life-or-death moments.
Johnson tells WENN, “I’ve been through natural disasters. I was down in Miami and I lived down there for Hurricane Andrew in 1992, which was a category five (hurricane).
“Members of my family thought they were gonna die. Everybody was in the bathtub. It was a tough, tough time. So I think the idea of coming together like we were showcasing in our story resonates with people and I think if there is any connection for me, it would be that.”
