Dwayne Johnson may get 90% of his kicks from smashing bad guys in action movies, but he gets the other 10% from the aquarium.

The photos he uploaded to Instagram on Sunday -- following a visit to Georgia Aquarium with his family -- provide sweet proof of this.

"The second largest aquarium in the world and the only institution outside of Asia that houses Whale Sharks," Johnson wrote gleefully on Instagram. "More than 100,000 animals and sea creatures here that I'm in constant awe of. Specifically, this Whale Shark that I'm contemplating jumping in the tank and jumping on its back.

"They call me the brown AquaMan."

He also treated us to some highly adorable photos of him meeting a couple of the animals.

He busted out his best caption game for this next one.

Frankly we could stare at photos of The Rock making friends with animals all day long.
