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 worlds 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 Norriss 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 Norriss 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.

 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!
Absolutely hilarious! December 10, 2007

This book is so awesome it has its own beard. In 1987, working together with Chuck Norris's beard, this book freed Ross Perot from a Texas prison. Then they swam to Tijauana and made sweet love to 12 donkeys and a cactus. Twice. No rubbers.
Way better than I expected... December 26, 2007

Bought this as a gag gift for a friend, but we were passing it around at the party as soon as he opened it. Everyone was waiting for their turn. Good stuff.
This book makes me proud to know that some fraction of the air I breathe in was once breathed out by Chuck.

I had this book in my coat Pocket near the chest. I was walking threw a run down street, when I heard a gunshot I was hit but the bullet his the "truth about chuck Norris" and deflected off not even touching me or scratching the book itself. If it wasn't for this book I would be dead.
