As we told you on Friday, Arnold Schwarzenegger donated 100,000 to Watt’s charity. But these donations are even better:

Keep in mind Watt’s original goal was to raise $200,000:
Seven days ago, @JJWatt announced a Hurricane Harvey fund with a goal of $200,000. It is now at $18,196,564, 91 TIMES its original goal.
