Product Description
The lowdown on the toughest, sexiest, and beardiest man to ever stalk the earth
Since its emergence from the bowels of the internet, the Chuck Norris Fact has roundhouse kicked its way into the world?s consciousness with all the vim and verve of its namesake. Singing the praises of his unequaled toughness, his mighty kicking feet, his indestructible beard, his frightening virility, and his ability to stop time by thinking about pineapples, The Truth About Chuck Norris is the one book brave enough to go behind the beard and reveal the real Chuck.
Ian Spector, webmaster of the site which started the meme and survivor of a real-life encounter with Chuck himself, has selected the 400 most kick-ass facts from his library of thousands, as well as illustrations as awesome as the man himself. This death-defying volume includes such awe-inspiring observations as:
? A cobra once bit Chuck Norris?s leg. After five days of excruciating pain, the cobra died.
? Chuck Norris can charge a cell phone by rubbing it against his beard.
? When an episode of ?Walker, Texas Ranger? aired in France, the French surrendered to Chuck Norris just to be on the safe side.
? Chuck Norris was the first person to tame a dinosaur.
? Chuck Norris once visited The Virgin Islands. Afterward, they were renamed The Islands.
? Every piece of furniture in Chuck Norris?s house is a Total Gym.
A must-have paean to the archetypical American male and a bible of all things Chuck, The Truth About Chuck Norris is easily the most important book of all time.

 very funny January 6, 2009
I purchased this book for my son who has read tidbits of the book elsewhere. The book is so funny that brings tears to our eyes. Highly recommended for those with a good sense of humor.
Totally Serves its Purpose December 25, 2008
I was first introduced to these facts when I came home from Iraq in 2005. The site was a great escape for me to find senseless humor in the midst of my domestic challenges. My wife was not as enthused as I, especially as she was about to enter a much deserved REM cycle some time around midnight.
As I read these 400 facts last night I laughed out loud at least 20 times and shared the insights and wisdom with my family minus the children.
One criticism is the excessive use of the word d_ck. Less is more. . . .unless it's Chuck Norris where more is all there is.

This book is very funny. It is a perfect gift for World of Warcraft users because this is the first place I started hearing about Chuck Norris.
The best December 12, 2008
Don't know what to say - the man has somehow been reborn. I don't know if they still sell these but I have 3 just in case for man-gifts.
