Honourable mention: Bisping being attacked by a hooded man in his flat when he was a teenager. Guy tear gassed him then tried to attack him with a hammer. Watch him telling the story on his RU-vid, it’s pretty crazy
Another honourable mention: Bisping drunk and lost in Brazil, almost killed by homeless people and saved when a stolen police car pulled up also wanting a piece of Bisping, giving him an opportunity to run away and get back to his hotel. He was unscathed but he would for sure be dead if someone stabbed and robbed him.
@@The.Arbiter85 That's just sadly how some people in these communities deal with things, my dads been shot in the eye, had his nose cut off, been stabbed 12 times mostly cos of the Catholic/protestant divide up here. Americans have shootings we have this stuff.
@@bigchief9313 then by that logic Bayliun should be right there with him...never heard a non masculine voice sound like Bayliun's before...maybe they (like me) just like Tommy's voice better, that's not taking anything away from any of the other guys at all
The way cowboy told that cave diving story on JRE literally had me on the edge of my seat. I'm low key claustrophobic so imagining being in a rocky maze, underwater, is truly terrifying to me.
The whole Matt Hughes thing is fking tragic... Poor dude.. I had a friend that had something similar happen... He got some functionality back but he suffered through so much pain, the brain trauma changed him.. he ended up taking his life last year.. Matt is going through some hard-core shit.. props to him for continuing to fight those battles everyday and continue living..
Dont feel sorry for Matt Huges. He is the worst human being you can imagine. Hes a bully, he always loved to make fun of invalids, deaf people, down syndrome people,... He is probably the worst human being you can imagine. For example for you to understand how much bullying can affect anyone: My mum was suicidal as a kid because people like Matt Huges tourtered her for being different (she was deaf). So it was me I would spit in Matt's face and tell him the train driver should get a medal :D
Most of these incidents happened when these guys were already in their "super human" modes, like you called. What amazes me about Nog is that he was just a kid and still fought through it.
Every time I've heard the BJ Penn story told nobody ever said he was chilling with the owner. Being friends with the owner is a pretty good reason to not Sue the place, I'm sure if he was just there with his family and didn't have any connection to the owner there would be a lawsuit
The only time I went in a wave pool I was just a kid. I was just an ok swimmer, but that pool felt like a big drowning risk in itself. Never really wanted to go in one since trying that one.
@@blitheringrando1410 I trained for 15 years and am 28 years old. Went to one of them 2 years ago with my childhood buddies in Macau, just racing to the end and loser takes a shot. Shit's DANGEROUS mate
@@legendofkhanartists4328 im okay with Balien, but they are shafting Tommy with the amount of videos Balien is getting. I feel there is some drama between him and the channel, if you remember at first we had about 10 videos of only Balien then the fans sparked an outrage in the comments and the gave Tommy a nice streak afterwards.
I also like the idea of Matt Brown having the immortal name because he can't seem to lose enough fights to get cut by the UFC. It's like he would win a few fights and then lose a few fights and right when he was in danger of getting cut he would win a few more fights and it almost seems like he is immortal in that sense.
@@kevincena3 What even prompted you to comment such a dumb thing. You think homie is just gonna talk about Matt Brown on some random video he doesn't decide to watch? 😂😂
Man that Matt Hughes one was rough especially when you see him on TUF. Just seeing a legendary fighter have to re learn walking and all of those kinds of things. Good to see he recovered
Brain injuries are also known to alter someone's personality, especially in terms of aggression. So sad that it ruined his relationship with his family.
Holy shit Cowboy,,,, as a scuba diver I can't think of anything more terrifying than being stuck in a cave underwater. I would love to hear how he managed to get out
I love MMA. The entire community is filled with the most diverse people with the most amazing life stories. The good and bad, the mundane and insane, the prideful and the humble, MMA is truly a career haven for all walks of humanity.
About Blagoy - When he got out of coma there was footage of him walking with the help of nurses/doctors and he was looking like a zombie. 2 milimetres distsance was what saved him. Also while he wasn't a gangster he had connections with gangsters because the bar when the incident happened it's notorious with its clients from the criminal world.
Fighters are so resilient. I started fighting after beating testicular cancer. My best friend started fighting after being bullied. My sister started fighting after being r*ped. People fight for many reasons but it always stems from survival !
8:53 - The Midwest is basically one gigantic cornfield with some towns sprinkled in here and there. There couldn't possibly be a gate with lights at every rural crossing for thousands of miles. Sometimes folks got to use that common sense. Slow down, look both ways, and if you really cant see because the corn is too tall, crack a window. You'll here that thing if its close
White's story reminded me of a similar incident I suffered Me and my family was in park for BBQ party, after playing with my brothers and counsins for a while I came near BBQ stove and Drank from a bottle which I thought is water, but infact was a Thinner, it sent shock all over my body, my uncle when he saw what I did smacked me in the back so I spit all of that thinner, even though not much of it went in my body, 8 year old me was pretty scared thinking I might die if I go to sleep lol
Donald Cerrone telling the cave diving story on Rogan's podcast was legit one of the most terrifying things I've ever heard. The parts where he sounds like he's reliving it and talking about what he's seeing/experiencing in that moment ... damn, man.
That's not what happened in the cave diving story. He went down together with his friend his friend got scared and started to squirm causing a silt out and then his friend left him down there when Cowboy got to the surface his friend was there with his(cowboys) family basically telling him there's nothing he can do
Multiple real Diving instructors reacted to Cerrone telling his story on the JRE. Not only does it not make any fucking sense, it’s not even possible. Dudes a legendary fighter, not sure why he would lie about something that stupid, but then again he did think telling everyone he went. back with no air left was believable so maybe that head trauma is catching up to him.
Unrelated but you have nice audio in your videos. The compression used is great! I disable my youtube/movie compressor for channels such as you! Thank you for your work.
2 things: one of my greatest accomplishments in life was coaching a win against gardeners wrestling team. Also an honorable mention would definitely have to be Court McGee who is dead for over 8 minutes due to an heroin overdose. One of the toughest dudes on the roster and has been sober for over 15 years
@@justinblundell9506 I love Court. He's one of my MMA coaches, so I'm bias, but such a Bad Ass. He does full on surgery with no pain killers and he is a machine on the mats
@@daki80 no way, he's your coach!? That's absolutely awesome- I'm jealous haha. Pass on that he's a real inspiration in and out of the octagon. And best wishes in your training!
Food For Thought: Recovery is a process: it takes time, patience, and pretty much everything you've got. Your injuries do not define you, but your strength and courage do.
People forget to think about this, EVERY SINGLE person, no matter what profession or how often you see them or how well you know them, they all live a life just like ours, they have emotions families, hard days, good days, depression, insane situations they have to work through. We all seem to think the only ones struggling are ourselves. We need to change that mindset and put ourselves in other people's shoes more often.
Probably not. Every time I've heard the story told before now they never said he was chilling with the owner that's probably why he was so close to the engine room
