Actor Arnold Schwarzenegger was assaulted during a public appearance in South Africa, but the 71-year-old quickly recovered saying, "I'm just glad the idiot didn't interrupt my Snapchat." Video shows the former California governor standing and filming children at a sporting event in Johannesburg when a man makes a flying kick into his back on Saturday. The video shortly afterward shows Schwarzenegger smiling and shaking hands with bystanders before walking out ringed by security. Schwarzenegger also tweeted a second video of the incident "without whatever he was yelling so he doesn't get the spotlight." Schwarzenegger had been attending his Arnold Classic Africa event, which features dozens of sports and fitness activities.
