Even celebrities can do their part to fix potholes...literally.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has always been a man of action. So when he noticed a giant pothole on the streets of Los Angeles, he didn't just gripe about it, he took action.
According to Bang Showbiz, the former California governor recently posted a video on Twitter of himself filling in the pothole with gravel and dirt.

Today, after the whole neighborhood has been upset about this giant pothole that’s been screwing up cars and bicycles for weeks, I went out with my team and fixed it. I always say, let’s not complain, let’s do something about it. Here you go. pic.twitter.com/aslhkUShvT

This isn’t the first time Schwarzenegger has gone out of his way to help his community.
Last year, he donated $1 million of his own money to the Los Angeles Fire Department to help them fight the Woolsey Fire.
