He was a teenager for about 20 years so it's no wonder he looks like he is just entering middle age at 60. This guy is blessed with as close as a person can get to the fountain of youth. No doubt he won the genetic lottery when it comes to the aging process. His body is in great shape physically too because he can still pull off high action fighting scenes.

Ralph Macchio is such a humble nice guy and he is amazing. I enjoy watching the original The Karate Kid movies and Cobra Kai 🙂. Season 5 was awesome and intense .

[@teacherdayanne7218]

Agreed!

[@XyZolda]

Can’t wait for season 5 tomorrow

[@babypanda0201]

This season was so much fun. I couldn't stop watching it.

[@beautifulcreations7308]

I love him so much during Karate Kid❤

[@muzikmon2267]

FREAKING LOVE COBRA KAI ALMOST AS GOOD AS THE KARATE KID MOVIES!! ABSOLUTELY GENIUS THE WAY THEY BROUGHT IT BACK!! LEADING US ON EVERY WEEK!! Not to mention Also bringing a young person's perspective to the series so everyone's interested watching from the millennials to the old people from the '80s like me 🤣 Bring it in more and more fans of the karate kid series wanting to watch those movies!! Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!

Ralph and Keanu share the same ageless genes

[@MrSatchelpack]

Pretty sure they are highlanders and don't want to make it suspicious hanging out with each other.

[@ghostland8646]

Keanu does aged lmao.

[@pjchj3599]

Ralph is 3 year older than Keanu

[@redrick8900]

Keanu has aged horribly. It looks like his lower jaw is melting.

Cobra Kai is such a great show. Got me into the Karate Kid films, and the quality is always incredible every season. Season 5 is one of the best so far! Very much enjoyed Daniel esspecially getting to have some awesome character development.

ralph is literally the sweetest human being ive ever met. 999/10 recommend.

[@jayfernando506]

BEEN WITH HIS WIFE SINCE HE WAS 15 MARRIED IN 87 AND STILL HAPPILY TOGETHER AND WITH GOOD GENETICS AVOIDING PITFALLS OF HOLLYWOOD STILL LOOKS GREAT .EASILY LOOKS 20 YRS YOUNGER

[@DanJackson1977]

Ralph's perpetual youth is a combination of genes and lifestyle. He was the perpetual babyface... always looked 5 to 10 years younger when he was a kid, now he looks 15 to 20 years younger than a typical 60 year old. He also got lucky in that he kept his hair.. but I've also heard he's lead a fairly clean lifestyle.. do drugs, booze, cigarettes, ect. so that certainly helps. Also he didnt balloon out like a lot of older male actors do.

[@rasta487]

Not to front but from earlier photos it appears he does have a toupee or hair transplant. He looks fantastic but this is about on par with a woman who gets a face lift to give an appearance of 20 years younger and says it's the genes and clean lifestyle.

[@moriellymoproblems7842]

@@rasta487 He doesn't have a toupee or hair transplant. It probably looked that way because of how he used to style his hair when he was younger.

[@DanJackson1977]

@@rasta487 yeah it wouldn't surprise me if he had some hair work done. If hes had any plastic surgery its fairly subtle by Hollywood standards.

[@rasta487]

@@DanJackson1977 yea...I agree..he looks great and the apparent small enhancements are worth it.

Season 5 was amazing, this show gets better with each passing season! Tbh I think this show is a masterpiece

It would be cool that we get a young actor around his 20s playing a young Daniel LaRusso in a potential Karate Kid Prequel.

"The famous skeleton fight at the fence scene...I think it's famous" Yes, yes, it is very famous. I was just a little kid when I saw the first Karate Kid, and man, I was like "RUN DANIEL, RUN!!!!!!"
