Editorial Review:
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 world’s 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 Norris’s 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 Norris’s 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.
The Truth About Chuck Norris: 400 Facts About the World's Greatest Human Reviews:
Worth the buy 
2008-08-04 - Nice and funny, the drawing are really well made too, worth the price i paid it
Good but has many recycled Bill Braskyisms 
2008-07-06 - I caught onto the whole Chuck Norris Fact bandwagon a little bit late...or so I thought. It wasn't until this all started that I realized many of these facts were rehashed from the classic recurring Saturday Night Live skit "Bill Brasky". I like Chuck Norris but the facts in this book can never hold a candle to the facts of Bill Brasky.
Just Awesome 
2008-06-13 - The wife hates it. I love it. Go figure. Great little cart filler for free shipping. It now sits on my coffee table (mocking my wife) and is a great conversation starter.
very funny 
2008-06-08 - I got this book for my boyfriend and he loves it. he reads the quotes out loud to give everyone a good laugh :)
This is Somewhat Lulzy but has some Fail in it 
2008-05-27 - K, for all the Chuck Norris fans here. i'm watching a girl fap on cam while i write this review so i apologize for the 'tardedness. The "writer" takes too much credit for what he's done. sure it was his idea but alot of what's in this book was submitted by others. Sure he even has the balls to say he claims it the moment it was submitted to his site but at least give the real geniuses behind the whole thing SOME credit. The only people who are gonna buy this book are the people who submitted things to see if they made it in there. and maybe a few people (like me) who just enjoy the whole Chuck Norris fad/meme/epic lulz. The douche proceeds to write a story which is filled with nerdness and a meeting with chuck norris (well twice),
Bottom line, if you enjoy Chuck Norris jokes get this book. if you don't like supporting douchebags then avoid.
