This guy is a tool and his own lies are monumental but I'm not sure that the story of Gene choking him out and causing him to shit himself is true. According to Steven Lambert (one of the few people that was actually there), it didn't go down like that...... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2yFI_PhGPbc.html
Seagal says that "I was there" when Bruce Lee was making Hollywood movies. The problem with that claim is that Bruce died when Seagal was 21 years old, and he didn't even go to Hollywood until he was in his early 30s. Seagal has often claimed that he knew Bruce Lee and even taught him stuff, but this has been proven false.
Um, no, he was actually referring to "being there" in regards to Dan Inosanto speaking out about Quintin Tarantino's depiction of Bruce Lee in Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, not him being there when Bruce Lee was making Hollywood movies.
I would too when its bs. Proof that he is a black belt? Nowhere to be found. Proof he beat up Bruce Lee... not one witness. Same as Segal... not one witness to back it up.
Wouldn't it be hysterical if Seagal walked out a back door after this interview, and waiting out there in an alley was a really pissed off Gene Labelle? 😂
Seagal taught Billy the Kid how to shoot , The Kray twins how to street fight , Al Pacino how to act. Seagal , is also an ex marine , CIA operative & took gold in the1960's Olympics - 100m sprint. His real name can never be revealed , for our safety!
He also taught Stevie Ray Vaughn, how to play the Blues, Eddie Van Halen how to do finger tapping and is the 689th re-incarnation of a buddhist saint. Whaat?! That's all true, I'm cereal!!
"When Bruce Lee was as young as 12 I ended up teaching him everything that he has ever known in fighting and since then along came the bloody internet" - Steven Seagal
Steven Seagal was Silvester the cat owner, also Seagal taught the road runner how to run, and he had a race with speedy Gonzales and the mouse lost; Seagal was one of the 3 musketeers and I believe he also was the first man to walk on the moon.
There was that one time he had a fight with his bowels to crap out a turd after a trip to the local P.F. Changs and used all of his fortitude on the toilet for 19 hours straight. It was an epic battle for the ages.
So how old was Seagal when he hung out with Bruce lee and James coburn at James house? Bruce died 1973, so Seagal would be 21 when he died, so how did a youngster that age from Michigan hang out with two of the biggest stars in Hollywood in the early 70's?? I get he knew Brandon & Dan inosanto as Dan was in Out for Justice..The timelines don't add up.
I was wondering about that too... how does a 16/17 year old kid ('68/'69 - the period in which Lee trained Coburn in LA) become a "very good friend" of James Coburn? Was he even in LA at that age?
here we go: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Jrf9dVOZork.html SS and JC did know each other. But in this clip JC talks about meeting SS "about three years ago". Footage looks like early 90's, late 80's at best
@@JimmyLee27 not the point, he asked about Bruce mainly, James knew Bruce but that doesn't mean he dragged Segal around to every training session. He said is there any proof that directly puts Steven near Bruce? Cmon dude
Steven seagul taught Neil Armstrong how to survive in space. he was also singlehandedly responsible for winning the American revolution. Truly a great man.
You forgot about Master Seagal’s amazing work in WW2 and all the orphans he saved from the burning building. LOL And to be serious for a minute, Seagal actually claimed to have taught Anderson Silva the technique Silva used to win a UFC fight. 🤣 I don’t believe Seagal could teach Silva anything regarding how to fight.
It’s a well known fact that not only did Steven Seagal invent every martial art known to man, he also invented video cameras and starred in the first movie ever made too
It's priceless when a pathological liar places that label on another (e.g., Gene Lebell) individual. Where to begin? Well, Segal's claim that he met Bruce Lee through James Coburn is laughable. The following timeline debunks Segal's tall tale. Lee taught Coburn JKD from 1968-1970; Bruce moved from California to Hong Kong in late 1970; Segal enrolled at Fullerton College in 1971; Lee died in 1973; Segal moved to Japan in 1974; and he met Coburn in 1981. Coburn basically provided his new martial arts teacher with stories about his interactions with the late Bruce Lee and Segal then used those stories to create a fictional narrative about meeting Lee at Coburn's residence.
SS: Thanks. Heck, I was actually taking it easy on Stevie Boy for his treatment of women and his ties to the Mafia places him in scumbag territory. In regards to his Bruce Lee fairy tales, Segal also claims that he bonded with Lee due to the "fact" that they each had "Caucasian boys." Hmmm, Brandon Lee was born in 1965, Bruce Lee died in 1973, and Kentaro Segal was born in 1975. LOL.
Nah your wrong PhilC, everyone who studied martial arts out here in California knows Steven Segal was taught by Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee was scouted initially as a contender in America when he was a kid. His school used to beatup the competition out here probably well before he was even known by America, as any Black belt would tell you. Gene Lebell is another old hollywood crazy, who Ali beat the living shit out of I heard when he was a kid. hes an idiot, and claimed he taught Bruce Lee everything he knows..always was a dumbass racist fool. I believe Hulk Hogan beat his ass live on TV and called him a old bitch too, for even trying to step into real professional wrestling. Which has been around before his time and MMA since the 1800's. Just look it up, they hate his ass in WWE. Ive seen him get ran over, injured, beatup, everything in between this guy Gene Lebell is no Steven Segal. But yea they fight under the same teachers, in Steven Segals documentary you can clearly see him doing every damn thing Bruce Lee did. He uses weapons and all that shit, watch Undersiege closely and u will see weapon blocks and counters straight out of Japan or Hong Kong, hes no joke...is trained lethally in EVERY damn weapon. That why they are always scared to fight this guy because you never know, and he doesnt brag about it. Because your talking shit PhilC enough, i havent heard one man challenge a steel toe-booted, brass knuckled Steven Segal, and I would laugh at you if u even thought about it and tryed him. He a cool guy but can step into that movie role and kill a fool dead like a damn warrior, just watch his documentaries. Bruce Lee died in the 70's yes, but his movies didn't make it into an American market until the 80's. So Steven Segal might be right, as he was well into acting around that time according to his documentaries. In Bruce Lee documentaries Bruce Lee says America didn't buy into it at all, they responded just like Green Hornet at first, thats why he died when the third one came out Enter The Dragon. Theres different versions of it too, Steven Segal met Bruce Lee through like...Jackie Chan and like Chuck Norris and all those fools as they all stole from it. Yea it made a measly amount out here, but in Asian countries they still watch the uncensored version of it which are the real ones, not the American release. I remember seeing it in video stores and my dad telling me. Gene Lebell is the coked out fool that ran with Chuck Norris I think. And its well known Bruce Lee hated all white men to pure damn death. And all these white faggots stole from Jim Kelly, Bruce Lee did too. Every black person knows that..Jim Kelly used to FUCK them fools up...im 35 but was old enough to remember when Jim Kelly was DOMINATING in the 80's in movies everywhere. There a video that shows Gene Lebell getting tapped by Jim Kelly capioeria students too...so you better be careful with your facts PhilC. Jim Kellys family ran that business for almost a century homie.
BED: I didn't make the claim that Segal met Bruce Lee through James Coburn. That came directly out of the mouth of Stevie Boy and he has repeated this fantasy in at least 5 separate interviews. My timeline is the product of documented fact and common sense. In regards to the rest of your claims, well... 1) Enter The Dragon premiered in the United States in August 1973, not in the 1980's. 2) Enter The Dragon was Warner Bros 2nd highest grossing movie in 1973, behind only the Exorcist. Ergo, your claim that it "made a measly amount" in the United States is erroneous. 4) Your claim that "Bruce Lee hated all white men," is laughable. Four of his first 5 Seattle Era students (e.g., Ed Hart, Skip Ellsworth, Doug Palmer, and Leroy Garcia) were white as were several of his students from the Oakland and LA Chinatown eras. 5) Segal garnered his 1st black belt in Karate and then he focused on Aikido whereas Bruce Lee began in the Wing Chun Gung Fu system and then created his own fighting method called Jeet Kune Do or the Way of the Intercepting Fist. The arts studied by Segal and the arts studied/created by Bruce Lee couldn't have been more different. The knife fighting employed by Segal in Under Siege was the result of his training with Lee student Dan Inosanto. Dan never trained Bruce in knife fighting, but he did train him in the double sticks and the nunchaku. Lee used the nunchaku in 4 of his 5 films, but he only used the double sticks in the dungeon scene in Enter The Dragon.
@@pjtheory Your close but not as close as I am, because I saw the NCAA records from Steven Segal when they scouted him too. In his documentaries he says those fools are all stunt men. Same as Gene Lebell. Not real martial arts. Steven Segal said that about the Dan guy to in an Under siege documentary. I watched almost every martial arts documentary so I know im right. After Bruce Lee, Royce Gracie was well known in the 80's as the best fighter...early 90's it was Anderson Silva who was scouted by WWF i think too. Just look it up. If you think your right, no homie. Asians will tell you Enter the Dragon was watered down before it entered the American market...the real one everybody seeks in martial arts is the authentic Chinese version of it. Those names you gave yea, im right. Royce Gracie cleaned up all those claims about fools who knew Bruce Lee early in his MMA career. He beat them all man. And all those Gene Lebell fuckheads who learned from racists ass Chuck Norris. Royce Gracie said whites stole everything, and Chuck Norris isnt even a real fighter. How you gonna claim that those fools were pros and black belts when they have never beat anybody in Gracie JitSu for almost a century now. Thats direct proof your lieing and they are. Because you cant produce any proof. Anyways Steven was scouted by WWE too he said so in his interviews. He doesnt like white people either man, he used to date black women. Same as Bruce Lee..they all like black women because of Jim Kelly. They are good dudes though unless you talk shit on them. Most forget these guys are above the food group in martial arts, they do not really know those fakers and are just being nice. Anyways the videos are all around youtube. After Bruce Lee, Gracie Jitsu took over. They conceded to Jim kelly too however..as happens some time in martial arts because he was a beast plain and simple. In the 80's Royce Gracie beatup so many his son got in it "Jr" in the 90's. And then Floyd Mayweathers family came and beat them all up. Floyd Mayweather is a accomplished martial artists too some say..but yea they were known in the early 90's too with none other than Royce Gracie, as Floyd was a violent young amatuer. You just had to watch monday night fright night fights. Floyd beat up all them MMA niggas too in the 90's...beat the SHIT out of them. Game of Death 2 came out after I was born, when crazies like Gene Lebell were saying he could be a young undetaker and they were going around saying Bruce Lee was still alive. No homie. Asians will tell you Bruce Lee NEVER taught SHIT to a white man. They could not fuck with this niggas nin-chucks. They couldnt fuck with any weapon this nigga Bruce Lee had are you crazy, at the time it was well known Bruce Lee hated those fools for being lazy on his sets and fired a gang of them. Bruce Lee was born into martial arts we will never know what he is really trained in. Bruce Lee only stuck with his boys in Hollywood. They said Kareem Abdul was his only student. Through of course..Jim Kelly. so no when u say student, you mean Jim Kellys students. I took karate and you sure are bringing back memories of others mistakes Ive seen. My black belt teacher who was this asian dude told me "90% of what they say about Bruce Lee is racists lieing bullshit." Everybody knows he died before the movie was even finished homie...they never finished that shit...that why the end sucks ass. It was rushed..I read it in Sundance...it was released as a independent film in the 70's. Look it up I'm not lieing...the movie is based still in CHINA. But his first movie the end is EPIC. Because he wrote it and directed it all. Not Enter the Dragon, thats why all those whack ass fools are in it. They said Jim Kelly went out there just to help out his friend...because he knew something was wrong. And the dragon is in reference to American whites yes...Bruce Lee hated you mutha fuckas plain and simple. Jackie Chan hates you too and calls america the "rumble". Thats "Rumble in the Bronx". So you see Steven Segal couldnt be refering to those guys as having taught him, no he taught them mutha fuckas. Your not a martial artists so you dont know any better.
What I find odd about this guy is that, according to him, EVERYONE in the world is a pathological liar, however he is the one continually spewing lies. What is wrong with this guy?
@@zverev85 really? Interesting. I believe Oleg much more than Segal certainly, Oleg is legit. But I wonder if Oleg meant that's how Lebell approaches it? Segal is implying that Lebell isn't competent and that just beggars belief
@@KCwalksabout Oleg could have joked like that, there are things that he says, and which cannot be listened to without irony and laughter, for example, that he knows ten thousand tricks
@@KCwalksabout It was 2007 and Oleg have a boxing match agains Dolph Lundgren 5 rounds.I'll give you link to see this fight.Then some month later he on his website talk with his fans.And i asked him about story Lebell seagal.And if you remember that time,Fedor Emelianenko was on the greatest fighters.And i told that Lebell could choked and Fedor too.And Oleg answer that Lebells mother was in wrestling and he too and its allthat he told.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lNeuhyIV9LY.html
@@djcease1996 lol you donut! What does that have anything to do with his pathological lying? You know who also 'accomplished' a lot? Bill Cosby.. Accomplishments don't negate character and ethics you moron.
yes yes, jvcd in the 90s was a drug locomotive. Anyway, Stallone was well put in at his party too. For most of his life he took illicit means, causing him trouble in Australia throwing them out the window haha. returning to JVCD that night he was so desperate that he was looking for seagal after the city with bullfinches in his nose. Why do you think a man on a level would have to accept a challenge straight from Never Back Down vol 1 and fight at a party among celebrities, start thinking and not duplicate the strife described by Stallone and repeated by internet people hahaha
@@stonehand49 who was he? Cause there are only 6 people who were involved with no other first hand witnesses. So is your buddy, Steven Lambert, his buddy, seagal's bodyguards, Lebell or Seagal himself? He didn't shit himself but he was flipped in the air after cupchecking Labell.
i guess Im randomly asking but does someone know a method to log back into an instagram account?? I somehow lost the login password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me
Quentin.... This is the biggest accomplishment in life so far. Being the brainchild of this stupid attack ad that I did for a former client. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5LFesW3XoC0.html And yes, Steven Seagal's a God amongst mortal men. And he was our idol BEFORE this stupid attack that was done to him by the media. And I'm just a sheep that followed. Tsk tsk. I'm ashamed of my life.
@@martinlopez2816 A smallish Sakuraba decimated the entire Gracie clan. Chuck Norris once stated that Gene LeBell was one of the toughest men alive. You don’t think a prime Judo Gene LeBell has a chance against a Gracie? Lmao......
@@martinlopez2816 Hats off to the Gracies, but a lot of their stories are bullshit. When Gene was 60, they challenged him and it was supposed to be Rickson, in his prime at 32. He countered by asking for his father Helio, who he was closer to in age, 80. The Gracies declined, saying that it wouldn't be fair because Gene was heavier and stronger, even though their entire gimmick was that bjj gave you the skills to take on heavier and stronger opponents.
Only 1 thing about that "LeBell trained Lee Grappling" claim: They met 1966 during "The Green Hornet". At that time Lee already spend much time and trained with Judokas like Hayward Nishioka (9th degree black belt in Judo, 1th degree black belt in Karate, won five consecutive national championships in Judo from 1965 to 1970, ranked 5th in the world in 1965 and 1967) and Jesse Glover in the early 60´s. Nishioka was his first grappling trainer in the USA. He also worked out Wally Jay (10th degree red belt in Small Circle Jiu Jitsu, 6th degree red and white belt in Judo). And in the John Little Book "Tao of Gung Fu" from 2016, its confirmed Lee already studied a little bit grappling from the chinese style Chin-na before he came to the USA in 1959. This was also confirmed by some of his Seattle students like James DeMile, Jesse Glover, Ed Hart and Doug Palmer.
Thanks for that info.. i honestly never believed the Gene stories. I'm sure he was a Judo champion and master but so many rumors of him toying with Lee, beating up boxers with ease, embarrasing said fighters i honestly find exaggerated
@@anthonybrogan390 There's others that knew Bruce very well also and they don't seem. to agree with that at all. I don't even think Lebell story about Segal is legit. There's never footage of any of his fights and to be honest all of his stories sound fabricated.
I don't consider someone that pays for, writes, directs, stars-in, promotes and distributes all of his movies, himself, to be a "celebrity". He's a giant nobody.
He is a true credit to his Italian/Spanish/Japanese/Chinese/African/American Indian/Russian/Hindu/Jewish/German/Dutch/Irish/English/Mongol heritage. Never before has a single man mastered the skills to be the only actor/martial artist/singer/musician/cowboy/astronaut/assassin/FBI Agent/Army soldier/Marine/Navy sailor/Air Force soldier/Russian secret agent/CIA Agent/Sniper/bomb expert/race car driver/priest/god/writer/director/decorator/screenwriter/producer/spiritual leader/psychic/guru/fashion icon, not to mention being irresistible to all women. Truly, TRULY, an inspiration.
A total legend in his own warped mind, every word that comes out his goatee minge surrounded mouth is utterly true, just ask his close personal friends Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck.
The Bruce Lee scene was written, not based on actual events lol. Bruce was ahead of his time in movie martial arts and also had many innovative ideas on martial arts. He was also very physically gifted from hard work on himself. I've no idea if LeBell choked him out obviously, but if they rolled, he probably did a number of times. That's how training together works 🤣😂 I admire all the founding fathers or martial arts, because it wouldn't be the same today without them. I don't care who would beat who, it doesn't really matter 🤣😂 RIP to both Bruce and Gene!!!
@sandir toukaev Well, that doesn't surprise me because Judo is a far more productive self defence than Aikido. Aikido is simply not in the same league in my opinion.
He drove a tank thru a dudes fence and killed his DOG because he "believed" the guy was harboring combat chickens (cock fights) in the backyard. ..........he wasn't 🤣
Only one I've heard. Fat man steve is absolutely full of shit, but gene lebell is too. The other stuntmen on that set claim that there was no confrontation at all. The two didn't speak to each other. Gene didnt kick Lee's ass either. He taught Lee about grappling. Lee was fully aware of the impracticality of chinese martial arts, that's why he was so interested in judo. Lee used the knowledge he gained from other fighters to invent mixed martial arts.
That's all LaBelle says about Lee. Except he said Lee also taught him some kicks and that Lee was a real nice guy. I personally know a guy from that was there when Seagal crapped his pants trying to get out of the hold. I didn't hear the story from LaBelle. There were witnesses to Seagal going into his trailer after and coming out in a different pair of pants too.
Out of pure curiosity, did anyone else actually see LaBelle choking out Seagal and him shitting his pants or it's just LaBelle's statement not supported by any kind of a proof?
@@antoniosabattini775 yes. But wasn't choking out. Just LaBelle holding Seagal and Seagal unable to break it. Then came a foul stench. LaBelle let loose, Seagal went to his trailer and came out later wearing different pants. Since the late 90s the only eyewitness source of this story I'm aware of was NOT Gene LaBelle.
@@tooold2044 Well, if LaBelle was NOT the only eye witness of that story, only the alleged main participator, who else actually saw and confirmed it as true? That's what I'm asking, because if it's only LaBelle's account then we can easily put it amongst fairy-tales.
Quentin Tarantino should make a movie about Steven Seagal where Steven is every hero that ever existed but always looses to a giant that chokes him and makes him shit his pants (played obviously by Gene Label)
I know people who knew, and trained with, both Bruce Lee and Gene LeBell and respected both of them. I saw Bruce Lee two times, Madison Square Garden in 1967 at June Rhee’s Internationals and in 1970 (?) at the Long Beach Arena at Ed Parker’s Internationals there-both times giving demonstrations (also saw Chuck Norris fight in both). Later, I became friends with Mr. Norris’ first Black Belt.
other than Steven Seagal i have never heard of negative words about Gene Lebell. Roddy Piper, Rhonda Rousey Chuck Norris are or were really good friends with Gene, but i have heard a bunch of negative words about Steven Seagal from actors who know and worked with Seagal
Gene LeBell had a murder charge against him. He murdered a man in the 70´s. Ron Balicki told me that on facebook. And he´s a liar. He lied about choking out Seagal. Steven Lambert said that that the whole stuntmen community lied about that because they hated Seagal.
@@Katzenhase So basically BOTH Seagal and Lebell are liars. Okay, but how does that explain the veteran stuntman who shared a story with Kevin Hart about actually "witnessing" the event where Seagal was choked and pooped himself?
That´s quite easy. He wanted to make himself important. Did you find my posting where I copied the passage of Steven Lambert´s book where he told what really happened on that day? It´s quite long.
@@Katzenhase Wow, so you won't even share the post then. You expect me to believe all of Steven Lambert's bullshit? Hey buddy, Seagal LIED about meeting Bruce Lee and you expect me to believe the unnamed stunt man "wanted to make himself important"? Well I find it easier to believe his anecdote about witnessing Lebell choking out Seagal than some bullshit by Lambert and a fanboy like you.
I do agree that the Tarantino film defames Lee's fighting abilities: Lee would have demolished the stunt man character played by Brad Pitt. I don't know why Tarantino would even promote such bs, but I have never been a fan of Tarantino's films: they strike me as cartoonish at best, something an adolescent would envision and find interesting.
@@k9m42 who knows, but one thing that we could say is that Bruce Lee wasn t really a fighter. Not in sport environments for sure. All the legends that can be told only from his friends cannot be realistically taken in consideration.
Okay he was in a lot of our nostalgic movies and is famous so it’s tempting to idolize him or cut him slack. But Steven Seagals been know to be a horrible person. He’s intentionally punched fellow stuntmen during scenes and been violent towards actors and crew on set. A lot notable sexual harassment cases have risen in the past few years. And of course He’s a genuine pathological liar. Telling lies that he was an advisor for the CIA, he was Anderson Silva’s master, and that he’s re-incarnation of a famous treasure hunter. Unless every single controversial case and story around him is false and all of his outlandish lies are actually true, it seems he’s just not a good person and it’s a shame but he doesn’t deserve to be idolized by anyone anymore.
Tim W With all the Info out there on Segal and all the spoof videos documenting his lies, it is amazing even a 15 year old would look up to and believe anything Segal says.
And that´s the reason why the stuntmen community lied about Seagal and said that he was choked out by LeBell. Because he hurt stuntmen in the 90´s while working for Warner Bros.
Many years ago I was training in Filipino stick and knife fighting with Alan Sachetti, anyway one of the guys that was also a student was an Attorney whose name I no longer remember, who was a Sifu under Francis Fong in Atlanta. He had a lot of interesting stories to tell about Fong.
There is footage here of gene lebell fought in the first ever mma fight in the 1960's before the ufc came into existance. There is nothing to suggest that seagal can handle himself in a real contended fight.
Gene Lebelle, Chuck Norris, Bruce Lee, even Seagal himself......I'd never wanna face any of them guy's, whether they lie & try to undermine each other's characters !! 😳😲
The thing about big seagull is he began to beleive his inflated egotistical self ,as a guy who did martial arts i always learned off those who were better than me ,i learned something new every fight
@@stevienightheat1 Just messing with you. lol OK, I will. I’ll be helping a friend put together a special event and exhibit this year in San Francisco honoring Bruce’s 80th birthday. 🐲
