A video of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's mother crying tears of joy after he surprised her with a brand new house has gone viral.

"Love you mom and surprise!" wrote Johnson in the moving clip's caption.

Johnson's mother is Mataniufeagaimaleata Fitisemanu "Ata" Maivia Johnson. Born in Hawaii of Samoan descent, Ata Johnson is part of the Anoa'i family Samoan wrestling dynasty that includes her father, Peter Maivia, Rosey, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi, Umaga, WWE Hall of Famer Yokozuna, Roman Reigns, Haku, The Usos, and WWE Hall of Fame brothers Afa and Sika Anoa'i, the Wild Samoans.

The heartwarming clip was synced with the popular and heartwarming ukulele rendition of "Over the Rainbow," by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, to really tug at the heartstrings.

Johnson wrote:

"When I was a little boy, I hated when my mom would cry ~ these days, I’ll happily take her tears of joy."

And now we're all hankering for a tissue.

The clip followed the 73-year-old walking through her new home, appearing to be beside herself and filled with immense joy.

Johnson explained he and his design team took eight weeks to get the new home ready "where she could walk thru her front door for the very first time and everything she saw was brand new and a total surprise."

He continued:

"I’ve been lucky enough to have bought her a few homes over the years, but this one is special as she’s told me over and over these past few years, 'After a lifetime of traveling, I want this home to be my last. Thats my dream.'”

Followers feeling all the feels shared their thoughts.

Johnson finished his caption by sharing a touching bit of wisdom.

"I always say, if you got a good mom then you got a shot at becoming a good, caring human being."
"Let’s all give our mamas a big grateful squeeze this weekend and make ‘em happy."
