Statham mocks Guy Ritchie

Jason Statham poked fun at Guy Ritchie as he took on the 22 push-ups challenge on social media.

The director accepted the nomination from Sons of Anarchy’s Charlie Hunnam on Monday, when the actor challenged Ritchie to do 22 of the exercises for 22 days to raise awareness for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

It is reported that on average, 22 US veteran serviceman commit suicide daily, so each push-up is intended to represent a life taken.

Ritchie nominated Statham on Monday, after doing the first round of his push-ups on a private jet, 22,000 feet in the air.

And the 49-year-old star didn’t mince his words when he accepted the challenge.

“Mr Guy Ritchie, nothing worse than waking up to your whiny voice in the morning. I accept your 22 push-up challenge,” Statham said.
