Arnold Schwarzenegger at “Total Recall” Book Signing

Yes, you read the title right. Arnold Schwarzenegger – also simply known as “The Terminator” – was in Toronto to promote his new autobiography, Total Recall; it puts a perspective on his life up to the recent family issues he has had to go through. A part of a larger U.S. book tour, Toronto was the only stop outside the U.S. and the only Canadian stop, drawing out crowds in their hundreds. Some people began arriving at 4 a.m., while some slept over from the previous day. 225 lucky folks got the opportunity to meet the muscle man and get a copy of his book signed by him. While posed photography wasn’t allowed, some folks got away with pictures, creating a memory of a fantastic moment.

As always, The Arts Scene crew was on deck to capture the moment. A special thanks to photographer Steve Murakami for capturing some awesome photos during the signing. Have a look through the gallery. Maybe you were there and we got the opportunity to capture you in a shot!
