‘Notorious’ had revealed that he always kept a dumbbell in his backpack. He didn’t keep books, just that dumbbell for protection. McGregor always used to keep his bag slightly open so that he could pull out the dumbbell whenever needed.

Bullying is one of the most disturbing and traumatic experiences one can face. At any stage of life, dealing with bullies is really important and as McGregor has dealt with bullies in his childhood, it was heartwarming to see him show his son how to deal with bullies.
