Dwayne Johnson is paying tribute to his dear
friend, Paul Walker, in a very special way.
The Fast & Furious star took to Instagram
Saturday evening where he shared a short video
clip that honors Walker's dedication to marine life.
"[I] Was moved to shoot this very special intro to
one of Paul Walker's final missions for shark and
marine conservation," Johnson wrote on
Instagram. " #DiscoveryChannel #SharkWeek
#ProtectingThatWhichILove
#MissYouBrotherPaul."
In the video shot for Discovery's Shark Week,
which kicks off Sunday night, The Rock looks
back at the actor's life both on and off screen.
"Paul Walker was not only an incredible actor,
dear friend, loving and devoted father..." he
explains, "but he was also a champion for shark
and marine life conservation whose efforts
inspired so many."
Walker had been involved with sharks and Shark
Week in the years prior to his death.
In fact, long before he made it big in Hollywood,
Walker studied marine biology in college. He
would later use his celebrity for good by
participating in The BillFish Foundation.
Walker's life was cut short when he passed away
in a car crash on Nov. 30, 2013. He is expected to
appear in the upcoming Fast & Furious 7 movie.
