    “I’ve done just about everything possible in the musical world.” Except for hip hop. He should have challenged Eminem to a rap battle. But I’ll bet Eminem would have said “no, he’s way more badass than I’ll ever be.”

    Yeah, and I hate to say it, but Eli is in better shape than Christopher.
    In recent years Christopher has become much more frail.

    Both are amazing of course.

    Also, Sir Christopher Lee is amazing. I don't think there's a single language, accent or dialect that he cannot speak. (I have to agree on the part of German grammar being difficult, I feel the same way - and I AM German!)
