It seems even the Incredible Hulk isn’t a match for Storm Jonas after Mark Ruffalo’s phone and ID became lost amidst the blizzard.

Ruffalo launched a Twitter appeal on Saturday, telling his two million followers his phone and drivers license were “out on the streets of NYC in a blizzard”.

He offered a reward as well as a “signed pic” for the lucky finders.

It appears the lure of a signed picture and reward worked as just twenty minutes later the actor told his followers his wallet and phone had been found.

Surprisingly, the good Samaritans, who clearly weren’t fazed by Storm Jonas, were two young girls, Amenaide and Catherine Brown.

Ruffalo uploaded a picture of him and the girls on Twitter and thanked their family for their “decency”.

The girl’s father Peter reportedly told TMZ that, true to his word, Ruffalo gave the girls $100 and a signed Hulk picture.

Not letting the phone and wallet incident put him off leaving the house, Ruffalo later posted a series of photos on Instagram showing him and his family making the most of the East Coast’s snowy weather.
