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.

5.0 out of 5 stars A gripping, hilarious read!, December 2, 2007
By now, we're all familiar with the Chuck Norris phenomenon that has gripped the nation. We all know that Chuck's tears cure cancer - but don't try to make him cry, cuz he'll roundhouse-kick you right in the face. We're familiar with the fact that Chuck doesn't sleep - he waits. And we know Chuck's manhood far encompasses that of any mortal man.

Ian Spector is a genius for first starting the Original Chuck Norris Fact Generator and now for the release of this delightful book. It is a factbook you simply cannot put down - each fact is more hilarious than the last. Personally, I can't wait for the next Chuck Norris book of facts - bring them on, Ian!

4.0 out of 5 stars The Truth...From the Originator of the "Chuck Norris Facts", December 5, 2007
When Brown University student Ian Spector created the Chuck Norris Fact Generator in 2005 on his web site, there was no way that anyone could have anticipated the cultural impact of the "facts." Now, actor and martial artist Chuck Norris has surpassed Jesus Christ in Internet search volume thanks in part to the fire that Spector ignited. Yet Spector is still mystified by the phenomena: "I haven't to date seen any movie with [Chuck Norris] except for Dodgeball," Spector told the Brown Daily Herald. "But that doesn't really count."

The book's promotional materials tout it as "easily the most important book of all time." While some may dispute this claim, there's no denying the truths contained in "The Truth About Chuck Norris." The 400 facts assembled here are hilarious and poignant, although some of them veer towards more sexually explicit territory that may put off some Chuck Norris fans.
