Legendary Martial Artist, Actor, and American Myth Chuck Norris Dead at 86​


If there was anyone we thought would live forever, it was legendary martial artist and actor Chuck Norris. Unfortunately, he, too, is a mortal, and Norris has passed away at the age of 86.

Carlos Ray Norris was born in Oklahoma in 1940 to Wilma Lee and Ray Norris and was the oldest of three brothers. He was named after Carlos Berry, his father's minister. Norris' parents divorced when he was 16 and he relocated to Prairie Village, Kansas and later to Torrance, California with his mother and siblings. His younger brother, Wieland, died in 1970 in the Vietnam War.

In 1958, Norris joined the United States Air Force as an Air Policeman (AP) and was assigned to the Osan Air Base in South Korea. It was there that he was given the nickname "Chuck" and began training in the martial art of Tang Soo Do.

Norris was an outspoken Christian, as well as a Republican and conservative. He was also a philanthropist who founded the Kickstart Kids organization and the United Fighting Arts Federation.

At some point, Chuck Norris stopped being just a martial artist and actor and became a full-blown American myth—complete with a catalog of jokes that treated him as indestructible. So when word spread yesterday that he was hospitalized in Hawaii, people didn’t panic—they joked that “the hospital is expected to recover.”


RIP, Chuck Norris. The world will be a more dangerous place without you.
 
One of America’s legendary action stars and martial arts aces has died.

Norris enjoyed a long acting career, including the hit show “Walker, Texas Ranger,” and movies like “Delta Force” and “Missing in Action.”

He also starred with Bruce Lee in the epic 1972 martial arts film “The Way of the Dragon”. Below is the legendary fight between Lee and Norris in the movie.

Norris was also a longtime conservative activist and supporter of GOP politicians, as well as a contributor to conservative publications, including The Gateway Pundit.

A radio station I was listening to while driving today played sound bite from one of his movies, I think it was Sly Stallone said something to Chuck, like I heard you almost died from a Cobra bite, Chuck said after 3 or 5 days of agonizing pain, the Cobra died, LOL :lol:
