Since September, tweeters far and wide have been imagining what the star of four out of five Fast and Furious flicks might say and do on the Sabbath as he explores the world, using the #VinDieselSunday hashtag. The results are frequently hilarious.

Comedian Gavin Speiller started the tag, riffing on Diesel’s “look of bewilderment and a vocal timbre.”

The characterization of Diesel as a simple-minded gentleman venturing into an unfamiliar landscape is one which is ripe for humor. Meanwhile, the real Diesel is probably spending his Sunday afternoon playing Dungeons and Dragons.
