I thought the exact same thing! Herzog could create a movie about anything and anyone. I LOVE the man. He among other filmakers inspired me in my teens to become a filmmaker. Just turned 60, and became homeless, living out of my car. Likely I'll never achieve my dream, but dammit it is still within me as a dream. And to me, Werner's films have often been filmed dream states. So, guess I HAVE in a way been a filmmaker...!

I admire how much Tyson has changed, but I'm very cautious about romanticizing him. He did some horrible shit when he was younger and it shouldn't be whitewashed.
@@dnyddls So bc you admire the guy, he can do no wrong? Come on, bro, he wasn't always such a good person. There were plenty of reasons for it and he was basically a traumatized kid who got handed millions, but even Tyson has admitted that he treated others badly. He's all the more impressive for having gotten past that.
Do you really think herzog would gloss over how despicable of a person he once was? Emphasising that is precisely what makes the “redemption arc” of his self awareness so profound. It certainly isn’t a tale of ‘look how flawless this man is’, but of how flawed-yet look how he adapted, astonishing
I didn’t think there’d be someone who sounds more like Herzog than Herzog himself. The interviewer is great. Now I’m going to immerse myself in his works.
Many people don’t take Mike seriously (obviously behind his back). He is the embodyment of the American Dream. This ex-street kid who became a multimilionnaire, lost it all, and came back on top, has known pain at an unimaginable level. When I listen to him speak I hear someone who has grown tremendously.
Tyson is a genius, a man of great suffering and depth....he emerged out of such pain and loss and was re-parented by Gus D. ....Over his decades, Mike Tyson has shared with us, his kindness, brilliance and soulful growth, that stems from tragedy. At more than one point in his life, he stood at a crossroads and the angels pointed him in the right direction. We can learn much from his life and his relentless spirit.
As a kid In the UK, Friday night was Boxing night on TV. I watched most of Tyson's fights. Always after the event, when we knew the outcome. It was almost inevitable he would win. Now I see videos of him with Grahame Hancock, smoking his home grown weed and eating magic mushrooms chocolate. And I think, Tyson is an elder statesman. No 'charlie' anymore. No street fights anymore. Just grace. And humility.
@@mator2339 (In Teddy Atlas voice) Teddy Teddy how could you say that he was heavyweight champion?...(sniff and twitch) A fight is not a fight until there is something to overcome.
This totally went different then I expected it. I knew he was smart and loved history. He always has been a boxing historian. But the Frankish Kings is an interesting passion. Now I’m gonna have to learn more about those dudes? Lol
Mike Tyson is an exceptional human being. To go through hell and come out the peaceful philosopher warrior that he is commands the utmost respect. Love you Mike.
He certainly went through hell. His childhood was beyond bleak and prospects he had none. Boxing was the only way out and for that Cus has to take the credit and mike too of course who stuck at it.
Mike Tyson would be perfect doing public service commercials urging young people, and young black kids especially, to read. I like Mike Tyson and admire what he has made of himself.
He did what many of us couldn't do... He stood up to the bullies and he ripped their throat out basically and discovered he was a boxer at the same time
Imagine Mike Tyson fighting the Huns in the Catalunian Fields or at Tours with Charles Martel facing down the Ummayads and two generations later fighting the Saxons.
Let me understand: the two arguably BEST boxers in US history (Ali being the other) are both extraordinarily intelligent, sensitive, wise, eloquent, and deeply perceptive of human nature? Maybe we should consider testing ourselves differently to see if we measure up and to what.

Don't judge a book by its cover. I once had a profound discussion about theology and Hans Kung with a guy with a mullet in a laundromat in Daytona Beach, FL.
I remember all the bad press Mike Tyson got back in the '80s, from his turbulent relationship with Robin Givens to that ol' ear-biting thing. The face tattoo just made him all the more intimidating. To think of how far he has come, how much he has evolved and what kind of a lovely human being he really is. If there was going to be a documentary on his life that I'd actually watch, not being into boxing myself, it would be something done by Werner Herzog. I think he could bring us the Mike Tyson that we need to see and change a lot of minds in the process.
"Acclaimed interviewer" Holdengräber having a monologue about Tyson in front of Werner Herzog, who only at the end manages to interject some of his observations on Tyson.
I'd love to hear "Werner Herzog on Mike Tyson". If only "acclaimed interviewer Paul Holdengraber" would shut the fu*k-up long enough for Herzog to speak!
„home without books is like body without soul “ comes from Cicero? Cicero lived at 100 BC. I thought the books didn’t exist at that time. Especially to be in many homes.
Mike Tyson would have been great to have on set when Klaus Kinski was throwing one of his tantrums. Tyson might have been one of the few human beings capable of calming him down.
I'm curious to know where/when the reading bug bit Tyson, but it reminds me of something about people who spend lots of time locked up often get literate af. Tyson's dope. The guy on the plane probs had it coming.
Ok but here’s something about the Frankish Kings that maybe even Herzog and Tyson don‘t realize: they are the ones who turned the Franks from free warriors into literal serfs. When Clovis conquered Gaul, the Franks were fearsome warriors. When Charlemagne passed half of Europe to his three sons, the descendents of those fearsome warriors were leal peasants bound to land and lord. That‘s one achievement the patriotic school system doesn’t tell you about.
Nothing out of extraordinary whole term school means free time between exercises at gym. During that time in old Greek students and teachers talked about math and first philosophy was born.

Mike Tyson used steroids and is a rapist.

Tyson is the perfect subject for a Herzog movie. Herzog loves the outsiders and the misunderstood. He treats them with such great respect and love.

Great quote.
Well, that certainly rings (wink wink) true for him.
Boxing shorts are kind of funny.

A legendary wife abuser and rapist.
I am completely and utterly obsessed by Herzog's accent. It is endlessly moreish.
@Ad Max More so.
You're far from alone

I think he just doesn't bother to change his German pronunciation at all.

Tyson is a warrior, a Gladiator. The man knows pain and darkness. He deserves all the respect if not admiration.

Yeah, he brings a tear to my eye, as that is so deep, to see the real results of self-improvement.
Honestly, mike has grown so much, i dont think he really cares what anyone says to his face.

Mike is a lesson in self examination. God would be proud of how Mike has learned and grown from the tests thrown at him. What a journey.
Let's leave imaginary despots out of it. I'm sure he is rightfully proud of how he has grown. He sets an admirable example for the rest of us.
Well said.
I agree, Odin would be impressed, Tyson will pass to the great hall of Valhalla and drink with greats.
Indeed, indeed.

This is not Werner Herzog on Mike Tyson. This is Holdengraber interrupting Werner Herzog on Mike Tyson.
This was absolutely brilliant!
If you learn nothing else from Tyson, know he is a devout reader. Read history and everything else you can get your hands on-- knowledge is power
There are hidden facets and unknown depths to everyone, and it is so important that we don't allow ourselves to forget that.
I like that, a lot. "Mike Tyson is a fraud because he's quoting Cicero!" "No, dumbass, Mike Tyson is awesome because he's quoting Cicero!"
I like this actual quote from Iron Mike - " Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face ".
"I'm going to fuck him in the ass"
Thats a beautiful thing to say about another...beautiful
You only had to listen to Iron Mike for one minute to know there was someone far deeper and more complex to uncover.
