Interestingly, Princess Ashraf's son Mustapha Chafik _was_ shot in the back of the head in Paris in the Rue de La Villa Dupont by a Fedayeen gunman. According to the article I read (New York Times, Dec 8th 1979, Frank Prial author,) he had failed to request protection after the Revolutionary Council called for the extermination of the royal family. The article didn't mention Seagal, presumably because the involvement of a respected ninth-degree aikido master in such an affair would have been highly classified.
I'm not sure if anyone has seen it, but at UFC 274 just recently, Seagal's purely innovative and TOTALLY invented by him move, the Seagal front kick of death, was used by Michael Chandler to knock out Tony Ferguson... There was no such thing as a front kick until he invented it when he was teaching Pai Mei from Kill Bill the 5 point palm exploding heart technique...And people say he's a "fake"... Did you know he gave up being a Navy SEAL just to be a cook on a ship? It was in his biopic, "Under Siege"
Seagal was a personal trainer at a gym where one of the most successful agents *ever* worked out. He thought Seagal had less charisma than anyone he'd ever met, so when the bet you mentioned occurred, he chose Seagal to prove that he could make even the most unlikable, embarrassing person into a star. That agent was INSANELY powerful in Hollywood at the time. I'm fairly certain that's the only reason that this article existed, talking about how Seagal was such a badass action star, despite his first ever movie not even coming out yet. Most first-time actors don't have people fawning over them like this before they've made a single movie. It's so hilarious. (I'm sure you know this stuff already, but it's just such a bonkers story and I love talking about it with people.)

0:47 not only is he a Serbian citizen, but the government here organized a big New Year's eve concert in downtown Belgrade and the musical guest was Steven and his band
Which is funny because after Michael Ovitz fell from grace, he blamed it all on "the gay mafia," which I remember eliciting a big WTF from me at the time. Still not sure about the gay part, but the guy was definitely mobbed up.
@@juzifal-bidan3621 There was a court case where Seagal had to testify and everything, the mob was taking a cut of his earnings and shaking him down for more money. When he first came to Hollywood, his roommate was mob-affiliated, as was Ovitz, suggesting a motivation for Ovitz to push for Seagal to get his first movie so hard even though in order to get the studio to agree, he had to screw his other client, Richard Donner, with a suboptimal deal on Donner's gig directing the sequel to Lethal Weapon
Waitress: "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful." Cook: "That's not why I hate you." Conversation I actually overheard. Both parties were smartasses who liked each other, so there wasn't any actual hate.
It just reminded me that when I was growing up, there was this crazy guy in our town that used to say the same thing. Was in Japan doing martial arts and was recruited to do black ops stuff. How many white guys in Japan is the CIA hiring?
48:34 This is the 2nd time in recent memory that I’ve heard chapo reference guys “reading Infinite Jest” in public, but I don’t quite get the trope… based on context clues I’m assuming it’s the ‘move’ of a ‘Guy’ of some sort (reactionary guy move? MRA guy move?). I’m not on any social media though, and anytime something on the show goes over my head it’s typically safe to assume it’s a Twitter Thing. I remember about 12-15 years ago (in real life) there was a brief phase of people ostentatiously reading _IJ_ in public places. it was mainly hip 20-somethings signaling their intellect (/pretentiousness). But like, the type people who had recently studied “____ and Marxism” in college (ie. the type of people that went on to form Chapo Trap House). So I’m hitting up against some cognitive dissonance trying to suss this trope out. (also full disclosure, I never read the book and am only vaguely familiar with its contents in broad strokes… but maybe it’s an allusion to the actual material?)
A few years ago on Twitter, people would have discourse that guys who read Infinite Jest are like problematic smart guys or something. I think they reference it as an example of smug liberal elitism.

Has anyone noticed as Steve grows Pen from 'Pen and Teller' shrinks in equal proportion?

Is Steven Seagull walking the Golden Path?
@@seansolidworks4736 No, but he's drinking the golden shower.

"I moved to Asia a while ago, and really fell in love with the place."
The legend goes that an agent made a bet that he could make *any* one a star and he lit on Segal.

Highly recommend the Dollop series on Seagal
Steven Seagal makes Ashida Kim look like Steven Seagal
He's got a move that can get out of any hold.
Damn so Steven Seagal also time traveling into the future to work for the “office of naval intelligence” (ONI) 😂😂😂😂😂
2:08 what in gods name are those things, on the sides of his head, where ears would normally be 😮
What's with the 1970's muff on his face?
Steven seagal
I would watch this video... except I'm pretty sure it's going to be dumb.
Steven Segal is what every weeabo will be when they turn 50.
You can't defeat Steven seagull. He has the power of God and anime on his side
More like queermo

The Mariah Carey of aging martial arts action movie actors.... Expanding outwards infinitely but proportionally
I feel legitimately bad for laughing so hard at this comment, poor mariah lol
sure but Mariah Carey can still sing, Seagal can barely even stand up

my sweet baby jesus, how was I unaware of Steven Seagal's band. my golly.
I know without even having seen this spectacle how good it was.
Poor serbs, they didn't deserve this
Did he do his smash hit Reggae song with Lady Saw "Strut"?
I'm so ashamed
Steven Seagal is Dale Gribbel and Bill Duetrive wrapped up in one person.
Thai is probably the most accurate description of Steven seagal possible.
Great discussion, but the boys are missing a big, mob-shaped piece of the puzzle in explaining where the fuck Stefan Seagull came from

It's A Good Man, Felix outs himself as a fake Steven Seagal fan SMH my head.

Steven is one of the greatest lactating action stars ever.
Nothing makes me happier than shitting on Seagal.
The most respected man in Japan.
