The actor who played The Incredible Hulk in the 1970s TV series has become a real life policeman.

Lou Ferrigno was sworn in as a reserve deputy sheriff in Los Angeles, reports the Mirror.

At the ceremony an official said: "In the series Lou became a monster when the bad guys made him mad.

"So our criminals had better try to stay on his good side for the sake of their health."

Lou, 54, said: "I'm having a blast."

And he revealed he is just following family tradition - his father was a New York cop.

He will put in 20 hours a month and wants to work with kids with drug problems.

Hope he doesn't rip off his shirt every time he gets a prisoner - Could be EXPENSIVE

Ps are those muscles real?????

Pumped out of his brains of steroids Rich.


Should be fun he walks up to a criminal "Hey your the hulk, cool your dressed as a cop a new movie is it?"

I saw this and the photo of him in the paper, he is no where near the size he was in his 'Hulk' days. Just as well as can you imagine the drug -*test*-('") results""""
