Arnold Schwarzenegger used a deer filter while facing his first question. Fallon used a pirate filter before the first question. The question posed to Arnie was about how he prepares for his roles in movies.

"Well, I just look at the script and then I read through it and see if there is a nude scene. And if there's a nude scene, I work out twice as hard."

The next question asked by Fallon to Arnold was what he wanted for Christmas. The legendary bodybuilder replied:

"I would like to have a six-piece toaster. I love toasters, because you need to have one with six. And that's exactly what I want."

Before the final question, they used another filter called a face swap. The final and third question by Jimmy to the former California Governor was - Can he describe a typical day in his life? Arnold Schwarzenegger said:

"Yeah, of course. I get up early in the morning and then I go and workout for two hours. Take a 10-mile run. And then I come home with the newspapers in two different languages and then I have breakfast. Take a shower. By that time, it should be six o’clock in the morning."
