Chuck Norris
According to rumors, Chuck Norris pulls the world down more than he pushes himself up when performing push-ups. Although the entertaining list of Chuck Norris facts is not entirely accurate (there isn’t another fist hidden under his beard), his reputation as a strong guy is well-earned.
He joined the Air Force in 1958 and was stationed in Korea where he first trained in tang soo do. His interest led to black belts and eventually in developing his own fighting style, chun kuk do. He currently holds a 10th degree black belt in that, a 9th degree black belt tang soo do, an 8th degree black belt in taekwondo, 5th degree black belt in karate, 3rd degree black belt in brazilian jiu-jitsu and a black belt judo. In 1990, he became the first westerner to be awarded an 8th degree black belt in taekwondo, becoming a Grand Master.

John Foo
John Foo, one of the list’s more promising actors, is quickly establishing himself as a dependable action star. He began his career as an extra or stunt performer in films like Universal Soldier: Regeneration and Batman Begins (2005), when he played a member of the League of Shadows (2010). He has been studying intensively in Wushu since he was 15 years old. From the age of 8, he pursued Kung Fu and Judo training. This skill set gave him an advantage when breaking into Hollywood, and when combined with his stuntman abilities and shockingly quick delivery of a deadpan one-liner, he becomes a star to watch in the future.
