About ten years before he made his debut as Iron Man, Robert Downey Jr was being kept in jail because of the fear as to what he might do to himself if he's released. He was on the path to self-destruction because of his drug addiction.
He was six-years-old when his father fed him marijuana, and thereafter, he pretty much spent his major chunk of life in rehabs. But he bounced back.
Since 2003, he has been sober. He is strong enough because he has overcome everything. Now, he is making people swoon with his charisma and personality.?
