 Why has NO ONE mentioned this guy?  

 

Not to mention he fought for two days with an arrow through the testicle, so I conclude from this he is also the Dragonborn.

Chuck Norris got his ass handed to him by Bruce Lee, just sayin'

This is true.

A mere technicality. It does not blemish his awesomeness.

Argue? B*tch please.

Norris was a B movie actor and the height of his career was a horrible tv show where he slow motioned every move.  He was a weak response to Hong Kong films that had way more experienced people performing way more complicated sports.  He wasn't even as well known or revered as Charles Bronson when they were making films and he really disappeared into obscurity. Then he uses his weak celebrity status to promote his religion in politics. The guy's a hack. Hell, if Steven Segal wasn't morbidly obese I'd say he's the worst B-listed action hero in film history. The guy's a redheaded clown.

Chuckles Norris, as Lee Marvin once called him may not be the finest actor in history, but he has a record of achievements that have merited the respect of many:

Both Dolph Lundgren and Chuck Noris are athletes turned actors. Not even the mystical Bruce Lee was a professional competitor like they were. If I had to pick a badass turned actor it would be Dolph. He was a genetic freak.

@Slim on that note while not impressive looking, Jackie Chan and Putin could be on this list, both are dangerous while not looking it, and you could throw in every last shaolin monk. But I think this list is about, characters, not real folks.

You can't compare the two. Dolph is a 10th dan and a certified genius. His film career was better too.

Lee has faced all of the martial artists in his films. It was something he did and earned a reputation for it. It's where he handed Norris his ass on a patter.

If I remember correctly, Chan has said in quite a few places that his first real schooling in stunt work was in theater, not in real martial arts. So his "danger" level could be more visuals than function. Putin however was a spook and a high ranking one at that. Wouldn't f*ck with him if you paid me.

I don't recognize any of those characters, but I'll agree on the top and middle.

Actully Putin is also a master in Judo, and Chan has master Rank in hapkido and over the course of his acting life has performed some roles on broken bones, and pretty much everytime one of his stuns sends him into lights or wires and he gets shocked, that wasn't in the script.
 
Much of Chan's martial arts skills came from practicing the arts while at the Chinese Opera Research Institute, headed by Master Yu Jim Yuen. However, he did eventually train specifically in Hapkido, earning his blackbelt under Grandmaster Jin Pal Kim. All told, Chan has trained in Shaolin Kung-fu, Tae Kwon Do, and Hapkido. Which in his prime qualified him as very dangerous, and even now better than the average bloke on the streets easily.

Plus the Chinese Opera Research Institute and the extent of...preassure/training it placed on performers in general more so the physical aspect, makes most Modern Western Armies training look like a huge joke. I would not want to mess with Chan.

Well least not in his prime. Putin however, field agent, Col Rank, worked his way up from nothing to one of the most powerful men on the planet. And unlike say Obama, or Brown, etc, he can for the most part break you. He doesn't need to deal with you himself, he can ignore you, or have Alpha Spetsnaz see to it you have an "accident".

Though speaking of actors alot of them are show or have no real fight records, Jean-Claude Van Damme high up that list. Its rumored he was even beaten up by a teenage girl he made advances on while drunk, though not confirmed.

Forget James Bond, Putin's like his evil twin. It's his record as a KGB officer who supposedly did wet work  and ordered some once he headed the KGB, and his f*cked up childhood that makes him a cold BAMF. Who cares about Judo when the guy carries a pen that shoots ricin pellets? Have you ever read the book "The New Nobility?" It mainly talks about corruption in the Russian government between '91 and now, but it does highlight Putin's career in the KGB and  his rise to power, and it borders on nightmarish to say the least.

Talk about a face a mother would be afraid of.

I wouldn't mess with Chan either, even though he's got one of the best reputations for being one of the nicest guys ever so getting in a fight with him would never happen. I know about the mishaps in stunts. They roll of him and the crew missing marks in stunts were always at the end of his Hong Kong films. I think the first I saw was in Police Story. The guy likes cutting himself on large panes of glass.

That much is true, but some people go a lot further than others. Segal lied about his pedigree, and few athletes turn actor. But there's a silver lining, there are some people like Stallone that really get in to th feel of it and is equal parts athlete and actor.

So you're a Stallone fan? That's.. unexpected.

Stallone's a boss. Expendables was so shameless. It was great. 

[android654]

I respect Stallone a lot. Wrote a timeless award winning movie made with his last few dollars and written entirely on his own when he was really young. He doesn't get enough credit for it, but the guy's really smart and that goes a long with me. So him doing a few bad movies is ok in my book.
