It is wonderful to know that most of Hollywood celebs don’t let fame go to their heads. One nice example is Tom Hanks (who doesn’t like this guy?), and another one, who we know as one of the most down-to-earth and approachable actors, is Keanu Reeves.

As of 2019, Keanu Reeves' net worth is estimated at $360 million, but money didn't spoil him. Keanu always proves that his ‘nice guy’ reputation is well-deserved.

Keanu Reeves helped fellow passengers

Once, the actor was on a United Airlines flight from SF to Burbank in LA. He casually chatted with the flight crew and fellow passengers, telling them about the projects he had in the works.

Suddenly, the plane had to make an emergency landing in Bakersfield, two hours away from Burbank. What made it worse was that the airport was closed, and passengers had no idea how they would reach their destination.

That’s when Keanu, a practical guy and experienced traveler, comforted his fellow passengers and arranged for a van to take them to Burbank. On the two-hour trip, the actor entertained his company with fun facts about Bakersfield he had googled on his phone.
