Behind every successful man, there is a woman. Behind every dead man, there is Chuck Norris

Chuck Norris doesn't wear sunblock, the sun wears Chuckblock

When Bruce Banner gets mad, he turns into THe Hulk. When The Hulk gets mad, he turn into Chuck Norris

Chuck Norris can set ants on fire with a magnifying glass. At night

itulah sedikit contoh dari kehebatan dan kedigdayaan Om Chuck \m/

Ingatan tentang pertama kali kenal sama Om Chuck ini bener2 blur, pokona dulu pas jaman masih ingusan udah sering nonton pelem2 Om Chuck nebeng di pideo tetangga rame2 ama temen. Biasana pagi2 suka ada temen yang gedor2 ke rumah treak2 ngasi tau kalo di rumah si anu lagi nyetel pelem Chuck Norris :))

Sejak itu suka ribut sendiri ngomongin betapa hebatnya Om Chuck inih. Yah makleum Arnold Zegarzeger, Van Damme, Steven Seagal belon nongol :))
Yang inget ntu pelem pertama dia yang ditonton dibioskop. Invasion USA. Nabung dulu dua minggu trus nonton rame2 ama temen2 pas hari minggu dengan harapan gak kena semprot penjaga. Masih trauma dengan kejadian beberapa minggu sebelumnya ketika jidat dijeplak penjaga karcis sambil melotot "ini pelem untuk orang gede!" *entah pelem apa, lupa lagi*
dipelem itulah tipikal Om Chuck bener2 terlihat
1. Chuck Norris always strikes first
2. Chuck Norris never misses his target
3. Everything he touches became deadly weapon
Hahahahaha... Duh Begitulah seterusnya, saya dan temen2 selalu menyempatkan nonton pelem2 dia sebelum namanya mulai tenggelam dengan munculna Arnold, Van Damme dll



Joke tentang "kehebatan" Chuck Norris muncul diinternet sekitar tahun 2005 diacara Late Night With Conan O'Brien dan sejak itulah menjadi fenomena. Orang berlomba-lomba menambahkan "kehebatan" Chuck Norris menjadi selebay-lebaynya mulai dari "statement" atopun melaui gambar :)))

alamat email Om Chuck

dan lain-lainnya lah

dikasi bintang tiga karena sayah setuju sama repiu si indah. komen2 si Om sendiri yang justru malah jadi pamaeh yang mengurangi unsur kelucuan "fakta2" ajaib tentang si Om inih
*masuk bunker*

dan sekarang saya tidak sabar pengen nonton pelem The Expendables 2 dimana si Om maen bareng dengan ampir semua jagona dan tukang kepruk di pelem mulai dari arnold, stallone, jet li, Van Famme. Bruce willis, Dolp Lundgren dll *rata2 jadul semuah*



semoga si Om bisa menghajar semua lawan2 nyaaaaah
awas aja kalo dia di bikin mati ama sutradarana

*ngasah golok*

My computer table is a mess of hardware, software, ink cartridges, lines running all over the place and books. One of those books is The Official Chuck Norris Fact Book.

Not only is this book filled with amazing stuff, it's also quite useful. Right now Chuck's holding a wayward cord in place. Is there anything this guy can't do?!

[Jen]

I think I actually read this one already. I like how Chuck Norris picked out his favorite Chuck Norris “facts” and commented on them. If you are into Chuck Norris facts, then you will enjoy this book. 4, solid roundhouse, stars!

[Jess]

The jokes are hilarious, as Chuck Norris jokes always are. Unfortunately, the rest is absolutely terrible. I signed up to win this book for my husband through the Goodreads give-away, and if I'd read more carefully to discover that Norris himself wrote the book, I could have guessed how pathetic the book might be. Basically, Chuck Norris is an egomaniac who also happens to be an evangelical Christian. That equals a terrible outcome of in-your-face faith values and a sad attempt to talk about how blessed he feels without declaring himself incredibly awesome. It's his inspirational self-help book hidden under the veneer of a hilarious Chuck Norris joke book. Besides being rather horribly written, the book is repetitive and is full of illogical non sequiturs. Just terrible, Chuck.

a ROFL book

Jika Yesus Kristus dapat berjalan diatas air, Chuck Norris dapat berenang di darat. LOL

Air mata Chuck Norris memiliki kekuatan magis menyembuhkan kanker paling ganas sekalipun. Sayang, Chuck Norris tak pernah menangis. *histeris guling-guling*

Ketika usianya menginjak dewasa, Chuck Norris menjual jiwanya kepada iblis demi mendapatkan wajah sangar dan kekuatan super yang tidak ada tandingannya. Setelah transaksi selesai, Chuck me-roundhouse kick si iblis di wajahnya dan merebut jiwanya kembali. *semuanya, terjelaskan sudah* ;D

[Sammy]

Very amusing for the most part, but got overly bogged down in religion for my liking. Didn't seem like the right kind of book for that.

[Tom]

Chuck Norris facts have always fascinated me. They are hilarious and yet have always had some truth to them (j/k about that last part, of course). Chuck Norris is also a fan of them himself. In this book he lists a "fact", shares a personal anecdote then ends it with a part of his personal code to living. Some of the stories are funnny and insightful, the "facts" are hilarious. This was well done and entertaining.

"One day Chuck Norris was bitten by a rattle snake. After 5 days of excrutiating pain...the snake died."

[Scott Martin]

(Audiobook) A book that capitalizes on the internet trend of Chuck Norris facts, this is the man behind the internet legend, offering some of his favorite "facts", but offering his own perspectives on life, from acting to faith to politics (at least in the current environment when it was written). The politics can be off-putting, but much of the stories from his life come through, as he blends aspects of his life, faith and beliefs around 101 facts. It is a quick moving book, and there is much to learn about the man.

Of course, Chuck Norris did not write this book...he roundhouse-kicked his computer, and the system automatically produced this work. Any errors were immediately corrected by another roundhouse kick. As for the two stars...well, that was the number of stars was I able to count before I lost consciousness after receiving a long-distance roundhouse kick for suggesting that there were ever any errors in this book to begin with.

[Philmore Olazo]

I was shocked when I learned that the Texas Walker, Beard Punching, Round house Kicking man himself was a writer. He has written like six books, my hero.

When I first found of this book I was thinking, "Awesome!" then I read it.

All of the 101 facts here have the same format: fact, story related to the fact (most of the time), a somewhat related quote from another person and a testosterone charged quote from the man himself.

Look I know that Chuck is an amazing and really interesting man, really. But the book itself is quite uninspired.

I would recomen....... *SLAM*

[Amanda]

Wow. Just....wow. So this was a very quick read- mostly because half the book consisted of artfully drawn bobble head portraits of good ol' Chuck posing alongside a Chuck Norris truism. I couldn't decide if this book was meant to be a joke or sincere. I was very confused for the first 25%, but I felt compelled to finish this. I still am not quite sure what to think, though I believe I have just read a piece of American culture....a true gem. If this were added to a time capsule and enjoyed 100 years from now....there would be a lot of questions.

Chuck Norris doesn't read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.

When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he's pushing the Earth down.

Superman owns a pair of Chuck Norris undies.

Chuck Norris does in fact use a stunt double, but only for crying scenes.

Chuck Norris is so fast he can run around the world and punch himself in the back of the head.

These and 96 other Chuck Norris jokes are found in this book. Also, Chuck tells some stories and gives nuggets of wisdom for life.

[Steven Stendebach]

I previously read Chuck’s “Black Belt Patriotism,” which quickly became the worst book I ever finished. I got in this book what I was hoping for in that book; great stories from Chuck’s martial arts and film journey, some shallow enjoyable life lessons, and some great humor. Chuck’s right wing moralism gets in the way at times and stops it from getting 4 stars, but overall I found this very enjoyable.

Bob Barker is a black belt?!

[ஐ Katya (Book Queen)ஐ]

It's okay. Not as full of Chuck Norris facts as you'd think seeing as he wrote it. He fills it with alot of his beliefs, wether religious, patriotic, or his personal code of conduct. I read his biography. He is very religious.

[Shannon]

(Audiobook review)
The narrator was not on par with what I expected. Wish Carlos had read it himself.
Otherwise, interesting book.
If you are interested in all things Norris, I would advise you to read it for yourself.

[Doug Eaton]

I would have given this five stars, but Chuck Norris told me that he is rated on a different scale and still has room to grow.

[Mark]

Entertaining and surprisingly full of some great spiritual insights and advice

[Sarah]

Love! Love! Love! Chuck Norris comments on “facts” about himself. And it is fabulous! Funny. Witty. Inspiring. Encouraging. And real.

[Dgario Stringfield]

good book dont be fooled about the fact that it has funny narrative it is centered in a strong christian, and moral base.

[Elfbiter]

Now, I might not agree with everything he says but he says relatively well :-)

[Angie]

Interesting insight into a well-liked actor. I appreciate his views and transparency.

[Michael Powers]

Incredibly entertaining and surprisingly deep. Really enjoyed this book.

[Bobby Daugherty]

Similar to Iggy Pop's "I Need More" as it is a collection of short stories rather than a structured autobiography. Chuck is a conservative Christian which seems to have enraged the usual victim culture. Has motivational elements similar to Bruce Campbell's book and it seems as if he threw it together because his name is in circulation.

[Joe]

Meh. The jokes and some stories were engaging, but the Christian Nationalist assertions became increasingly heavy handed and the book progressed.

[Megan]

An entertaining, light-hearted read.

[E.A. West]

The Official Chuck Norris Fact Book is a fun book, but it also gives a great deal of insight into the man behind the fact phenomenon. Each of the 101 Chuck Norris Facts in the book is supplemented by a true story from Chuck Norris himself. After that bit of trivia is a quote pertaining to the story, and the end of each entry gives the corresponding core value from Chuck’s Code–Norris’ five core values he lives by: Freedom, Family, Fitness, Faith, and Fight–and a sentence or two that goes with it.

Throughout the book, Norris offers opinions and trivia on everything from his movie career to his family to nutrition. The reader comes away with a greater understanding of Norris’ deep-seated Christianity, his patriotism, his support of the military, and his belief that people must work not only to improve themselves but the world around them as well.

The humor in this book had me laughing many times, but Norris also touched on some topics that hit home and made me see things I could improve in my own life. I was particularly impressed with his openness about his failures as well as his successes. His belief that everyone has the opportunity to change their corner of the world is inspiring, especially since the stories in this book show how one person can make a huge difference in the lives of countless people. The many reminders that God sees each of us as His own special creation and has a plan for each and every one of us are uplifting. I highly recommend The Official Chuck Norris Fact Book for anyone looking for a book that leaves the reader with hope for a better world and a better relationship with God and family.

[Alex Shrugged]

I liked this book. I didn't love it, but I thought it was funny and good.

Some of my reservations are with the narrator of the audiobook, Johnny Heller. I had a difficult time getting used to his voice. I imagine he was chosen because his voice sounded similar to Chuck Norris'. However, he sounded more like Truman Capote trying to do a Chuck Norris imitation... at least at first It got better eventually. I don't know what changed. Maybe it was the audio mixing that was the problem, but the narration spoiled the experience. I'm sure I would have liked this book better in written form. The voice of the mind is always perfect.

Any other problems with this book? Chuck Norris quoted a lot of people in his book, so the book provided an obvious formatting break between when Chuck was quoting someone and when Chuck, himself, was speaking. This was done by prefacing his remarks with the phrase, "Let's be honest." Then you knew Chuck was speaking directly. Other authors might use a different transitional phrase like "Well...." It became a little annoying at times, but I forgive Chuck. The audiobook would have become impossible to understand without some phrase like that.

Any modesty issues? Not really. Chuck Norris is a religious man and he is glad to let you know about it. He didn't beat the reader over the head about it. He simply provided suggestions for how one could improve one's life through religion without getting preachy about it.

If I read this book again it would probably be in written form.

Chuck Norris digigit ular kobra, dan setelah kesakitan lima hari... kobranya mati.
Istilah cowboy digunakan karena Chuck Norris satu-satunya orang yang pantas menjadi cowman.
Kenapa senjata pemusnah massal tidak ditemukan di Timur Tengah? Karena Chuck Norris tinggal di Texas.
Tidak ada yang namanya evolusi. Yang ada hanya daftar makhluk yang dibiarkan hidup oleh Chuck Norris.
Chuck Norris tidak membaca buku. Ia menatapnya terus sampai buku itu memberikan informasi yang dia inginkan.

Okay, ada ratusan bahkan ribuan "Chuck Norris Facts" yang kocak-kocak di internet, tapi buku ini hanya memuat 101 fakta yang menjadi favorit sang Chuck Norris sendiri, dan setiap faktanya mendapat komentar pribadi darinya.

Terus terang, mendingan tidak usah dikomentari, yang kadang-kadang terasa jadi bantahan nggak enak hati "aku nggak gitu-gitu amat, kok!". Semua komentar dan cerita pribadi Chuck Norris rasanya malah jadi pamaeh, terasa serius dan mengurangi kelucuan "fakta-fakta" yang ada.

Tidak, aku tidak takut sama Chuck Norris.
*manggil Mad Dog*

[John]

The mere fact that this book exists is enough to warrant three stars from me. Everything about it is somewhat absurd. Plus, to me, Norris is easily one of the most fascinating celebrities of all time, and I'm always eager to get my hands on anything new he produces. That being said, Chuck drops the ball on this one a bit. Rabid Chuck fans will be disappoined to see that he is guilty here of a little self-plaigarism--large chunks of material in this book are simply rehashed from two of his other books, AGAINST ALL ODDS and BLACK BELT PATRIOTISM. Only about half the "facts" quoted in the book are actually amusing, and they generally serve as really lousy segues for the kinds of things Chuck chooses to write about.

[Nancy]

Chuck Norris makes onions cry!

I love it!

Chuck Norris has become achieved cult status around the world and there are many Chuck Norris fun facts circulating the internet (some funny and some down right vulgar). Mr. Norris decided to list his 101 favorites (all clean) and follows up with them by imparting some of his spiritual, physical and political opinions.

I can't say I agree with all of his political opinions, but I do believe that he is a great role model for the currently misguided generation of today. One of my favorites was how he said not to let technology rule our lives.

A good, well-written, inspirational and humorous book. Great for adults and children.
