Interviewer: "What is some advice you would give someone wanting to get into this profession?"
Van Damme: "There was this guy. You want some milk and cookies? My dad was serious guy. Then I was a bouncer and now I am here with you."
You forgot the bulging neck vein.
Exactly 😅😅
Yeah, that's about what I got from this too. What the heck was he talking about? I've watched Bloodsport like 100 times. It's one of my all time favorite movies, and many other Van Damme movies. I feel more confused at the end of the video than I was before. I just need him to kick something and say "Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!"
Hahahahaha
Damn I thought you was joking but you fuckin nailed it.
Van Damme tells his story like Pulp Fiction. In non chronological order.
Spot fucking On. I love JCVD though. Anytime I watch Bloodsport it is like the first time.
It's difficult to follow.
Van Damme was upset by how "Bloodsport" was edited (2:01). There were too many cuts during his fights. He was in tears (2:24). So he went into the office of an executive who had told him that he'd never be a star (2:45) and told the executive that he was wrong (2:50).
I agree and I’ll tell you bottom line a great guy but I remember watching MTV special where he talked about how much he loved his wife and kids and as soon as the camera was off he was in a limo with four girls well at least 19 years old and that was very funny talk about no loyalty to the wife
*Makes readers say... wha... so you married the same woman twice?*
because he's a habitual liar
Only this man can tell 5 different stories in 1 sentence.
😂😂😂 That’s crazy funny
Yes lol
😅😅😅😅
He tried to give us way too much context
He tells the Story in Widescreen.
As a kid I rented Bloodsport over and over again. Never got tired of it.
Same here, I’ll never get tired of watching Bloodsport 💯 It always takes me back to when I was young in the 90’s. If that movie was on, instead of playing outside with my friends, I would sit and watch that entire movie even though I’ve watched it multiple times
Do yall remember No Retreat No Surrender? I knew when I saw him in that movie he was gonna go places.
@@blyxx7450 That's the first movie I ever saw Van Damme in and I thought he stole the show as the antagonist. Haven't seen it in years though.
irented that movie atleast 20 times just to see leah Ayres, had a big crush on her.
@@jcesararc2419 yeah she was fine
"I love you guys so I give you everything!" - Van Damme, three minutes after asking the guy what his name is.
😂😂😂😂😂
That's what I was thinking too lol
Cocaine is very uplifting, but the wrong drug for a podcast unless you can do lines every 30 minutes

LOL 😂 I literally laughed my asss off on this one. What’s your name again? I give you everything I love you guys. Lol I guess it’s easy to win vandamme over
When I get shampoo in my eyes and it stings, I do the Van Damne , yell, "NAAAAHHHHH!!!", and do some martial arts moves, totally blind. Thank you Jean Claude for that. 👍😉
Absolute favorite scene
Lol awesome all of a sudden the keyboard kicks in as your eyes clear.....haha
LMFAO will do that
Armando Dy bahahaha
Dude, that's funny as hell.
JCVD the movie is criminally overlooked even by Van Damme fans. His acting in that film was incredible, that monologue at the end was one of the few times a movie has made me cry, maybe its because I followed his career as a kid & had preconceived notions about what kind of guy he was & they were wrong because his speech was so powerful & raw it felt too real
Not really, Van Damme fans know about it, but even renowned actors like Nicholas Cage spoke about it, which is how I found out about it. But that was the thing with it. Where it took awhile for even fans of his to know about it, because there was so little publicity for it, it was a french made film. But it basically gave the whole industry evidence that he was a real actor. (Richard Corliss of Time magazine named Van Damme's performance in the film the second best of the year (after Heath Ledger's The Joker in The Dark Knight),[9] having previously stated that Van Damme "deserves not a black belt, but an Oscar")
I think its one of his worst movie ever.he just played himself and talked about his life and did like 5 seconds of fighting.I think his best movies are the quest,knock off,hard target,no retreat no surrender,the replicant,double team,lion heart,Inferno,kickboxer and welcome to the jungle.
This speaks volumes about your IQ.
Facts. His best acting!!
Good little movie, big nomination-level performance from JCVD that took me by surprise..
"this movie is for me.."
I was more confused after he finished his story than before he began it
HHhhmmmmmmm. (jots down notes, breaks wind & leaves room)
Same here, I’m more confused too
Yeah, he was all over the place. So confused.
@@Blueeyes2584A ADHD is a hellova drug!
So it wasnt just me
Okay, so since I know a thing or two about his story (Loosely) this is how I will try and translate. "So When I was young I was in great shape in Belgium and had my own Gym and I was a Karate Champion who had it all, the women, the fame and the money. I went to the US, left all that behind to try and make it. I was so poor in trying to be an actor in the US that in order to make a long distance call to my family, I would wait for the women I randomly hooked up with to go have a shower so I can charge the long distance fee to her phone. Then because of my martial arts I got involved with Chuck Norris and started to spar with him and he would practice his moves he would use in the movies on me, so when I went home for a visit I was referred to as Chuck Norris's punching bag and a failure at trying to be an actor and my father was ashamed of what I had given up to NOT become. The I saw the head of Canon Studio (He got his accent down perfectly I should ad) and he told me I will never be a star like Chuck and Michael (The dude from American Ninja) and so we got into a heated exchange where I said I ain't no bodies bitch, so he tried to calm me down and gave me a script called Bloodsport to which no one had faith in and I did some better more realistic things when I made that film but it got chopped down in the editing to be more hokey. So my charisma still shown through and that is how I became a star and not an actor." Hope that cleared things up a little.
Bien jouer..
gutz1981: LOL!!
sincere thanks for that actually
Thanks for that.
Good stuff. So weird how he told the entire story in reverse.
Ooooof thank you lol jjj
Great story, even though I got only about 50% out of it... :) The hero of my childhood
adamodimattia amen brother. He's what got me into martial arts at a young age.
Me too :) although I think Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris were first @@nomaanalwi9495
i thought it was just me
hieuwey Same here. I wish these great people never aged and could keep inspiring for many generations like they did when I was young.
😂 the same. I just wanted to see my man talk his shit. But i couldn’t understand a fuckin thing
I’ve watched Bloodsport a million times on VHS. A friend told me I should watch it. “It’s good!”. He lent me the tape, but I didn’t watch it because I didn’t believe him. It couldn’t be better then all the fighting movies I’ve seen. A few weeks later I came around to watch it. I’ve watched it at least 5 times that weekend. Bloodsport and Kickboxer are my all time favorites.
Yes, those two movies were also my favorite but I also like Universal Soldier, I was big into Military when I was younger.
Blood sport redux out in 2023
Even Lionheart was decent
Grew up watching it, it shows he had heart...still does...teaches u a lot actually if u pay attention...he shld have gotten more I think for the movie
What were the other fighting movies you thought were better than Bloodsports?
I WATCHED BLOODSPORT 100 TIMES AS A KID AND IT STILL GIVES ME THE CHILLS WHEN I WATCH IT TODAY
I met him. Twice! He is totally himself here. Love this dude. My childhood hero!
You lucky, where you meet him ??
Wow very lucky, I would be so star struck because I was a huge fan of him as a kid. Still am, but at a young age people like this are like super hero's to you.

I first saw him in the movie (VHS) 'No Retreat, No Surrender' way back in the mid 1980's and was completely blown away with his kicking style and technique. As a person, he has always come across as a congruent and decent kind of guy.
Shit loved that movie, even though it was terrible.
The acting from everyone else was terrible and to be truthful Jean wasn't that great but his martial arts skills were amazing in the film and now i know where he got that bump on his head it's through headbutting that blonde headed fat man. Only joking he got kicked in the head is what I've read
I first saw him in Breakin
same here
1986 hi was amazing I remember too !!!💪🤝👍
Acting skills 100. Storytelling skills 2. 😆 Either way, he's one of the goats.
Agreed. I’m listening but my brain keeps saying
Doesn’t compute
The effects of cocaine 😂
I love JCVD but damn, he's barely coherent here.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Acting skills 100? Being very generous gentlemen
Bloodsport, Kickboxer, Cyborg, Lion Heart, Double Impact, Universal Soldier, Nowhere to Run, Hard Target, Time Cop and even Street Fighter. The man was a true action STAR.
I think pretty much all of his most relevant work is on that list, Nice Job ;)
Death Warrant
You forgot the quest
Sudent death
Double team, Knock Off
The story is like going up on a rollercoaster slowly anticipating a drop that never comes LMAO. Still love JCVD
“Aren’t you a little young for full contact?”....”Aren’t you a little old for video games?”
"You like to gamble? ...

what the hell is a dimack
Only Ogs Remember
😆😆😆👍
Bloodsport, Kickboxer, Cyborg, Death Warrant, Lion Heart, Universal Soldier, Hard Target, Double Impact and Time Cop where my shit back in the day.
I watched those over and over.
Remember
No retreat No surrender.?
This was the first time I have ever seen vandame.
Double team should be at the top
Don't forget Street Fighter
And A.W.O.L. was quality.
andraecus davis you forgot the quest!!!
I met Van Dam at LAX airport when I was in service. He took 10 min while he was waiting on his pick up ride to talk to me. Awesome guy really is.
I love hearing about his life. Like with Arnie and Stallone, his struggles are very human and real. He comes from humble beginnings. He isn't a manufactured star or actor like we see today - he is the real thing.
One of my childhood heroes. I loved his comment stating that UFC fighters today can't kick like him in his prime. He admitted he wouldn't be able to grapple or wrestle, but his stand up would be strong in today's UFC because his kicks would be the best. I love this man.
yea, no. thats the cocaine talking.
@@perfecto25 🤣 probably
Van Damme will always have the best kicks in Hollywood history. His helicopter kicks were and still are legendary, no one like him in Hollywood ever again. A living legend, love him and grew up watching all his movies, I'm a JCVD superfan.
what he was saying was.. van damme had a successful gym in Belgium. he left it all to go to america and become a movie star. it was hard to get even the smallest part in a movie. he was training with chuck norris. people in belgium joked that he gave up everything to become chuck norris' punching bag. van dammes dad felt embarrassed. then the film producer Menahem Golan gave a desperate young van damme some milk and cookies and the script to Bloodsport. then he became the muscles from brussels. yay.
Yeah but the way he said it was much cooler
Thank you for that translation!!
What about giving up a bouncer job and lots of girls?? 😊😊
What about him being "the predator". I'm so glad he got replaced on that film
Lmao ummm
Ok USA! 👍
... what the HELL is a Dim mak?
That guy looked scarier then Bolo! He should have been the last boss!
👍
Read it in his voice too lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
He begins to answer the question ...then goes Rick James on us.
dominoz back
Heck of a rug
"Which one you want to be a star or an actor?" Then goes on a babbling rant about what he did to star in Bloodsport 1 and 2 but didn't answer his own question or the one given by the interviewer but he's still a living Movie Action icon.
😅
Cocaine's a helluva drug - Rick James
I never put my drty shoes on eddies couch .......Yea i put my dirty shoes on eddies couch!!!
One of the best actor and entertainers in the 80s and 90s when movies were movies 🎥!
Thanks a lot for the action Van Damme!
Bloodsport my all time favourite!
What a great guy, literally he is a great guy. Back in 1995 I met him in person at Planet Hollywood Atlanta promoting Sudden Death. Among getting two autographs from him he made my late grandmother very happy with his kindness. I'll always remember that and I will always respect him. Yes he had a cocaine habit that's no secret but I commend him for kicking the habit and becoming a better human being after learning from his mistakes.
i want to meet this guy. Been a fan all my life
Star Wars Theory head to Brussels and you may be lucky
Me too.
same here
Rumor is u get a ounce of coke he will show up in 10 minutes
Wow, And a fan of yours I am too, Amazed I find you on this part of TH-cam!
Lol how did his accent get stronger as he got older lol
Maybe he is spending more time in France
He doesn't live in the US

"I love you guys.. So I give you everything" What a story teller
his kicks looked so good and articulated because of ballet and his physique. ballet helped him so much.
Yep Van Damme became the architect of his dreams. He made them come true. Inspiring and motivating story. Blood sport is masterpiece of martial arts movies. Fantabulous. Thank you Master JCVD!
I consider JC a really talented actor. That's why I was so obsessed with him and still feel all the feels when I watch his films now. Yeah he's hot and can kick ass, but the types of scripts and stories he did and his commitment to it being good...He really brings depth and interest to otherwise cliche material. I think the Hollywood machine wanted him to just be eye candy and do what he was told and when he wasn't, they discarded him. He deserves way better. He's got heart and charisma and still making films, despite the haters. It sucks people talk shit about him more than respect what he inspired-and continues to-in so many. He is quite a few levels of talent, people just wanted him to be one note. He will always have a special place for me. Even if his story rambled for time. 💗✨
I have no idea what he's saying here but I could listen to JCVD all day. One of the very few genuine good guys. Great to his fans. Humble. I had the Bloodsport poster on my wall forever. 💪❤
As Sylvester Stallone said to Arnold: "You and I are the reason subtitles were invented." He should add John Clawed Van Damme to it! Respect though, everyone's childhood hero, including mine.
Long story short..all it takes to be a star is just to drink your milk and eat your cookies.
Dude we were all huge fans and still are of this man
I like how he’s come back finally over the last several years. It’s too bad ego and drugs got in his way for so many years but his career has been pretty good and the movies he’s done good too over the last ten or so.
I remember as a kid, watching his movies every time they were on TV. They were the best. Now at 35yrs old, I still love them.
Bloodsport will always be my favorite Van Damme film...good story and bloody action
Cyborg was my fav.
Kickboxer for me
1.Bloodsport
2.Kickboxer
3. Lion Heart
4. The Quest
Anyone seen double impact?
Cyborg
Bloodsport
Kickboxer
Double impact
Lionheart
i can just set and listen to this great guy forever, love JCVD
Bloodsport is one of the movies I can never get tired of!
Met him twice, one on one. Very humble, polite, overall just such a nice guy. I used to do valet parking (nice way to meet lots of entertainment ppl). JCV was like a kid, happy and excited! He'd shake hands, make an exciting conversation, make you feel he was your friend! I'm glad I've met him, had my chance to see for myself how he is in person 👍👍
He was always my favorite as a kid... Over Arnold, Chuck, Sly, and Chan.
Van damme is actually a cool n relaxing guy.. getting hurt for almost 30yrs .., gotta salute this guy
I grew up watching him. There is always a special place in my heart for Van Damme.
After Bruce Lee, to me, came Jean-Claude Van Damme because "No Surrender, No Retreat" stunned me as the next best martial art movie since Bruce Lee. I've also learned by at least two people I know who met him, and they said he was down to earth, and pleasant to meet.
No retreat no surrender
Favorite Van Damn movie is No Retreat, No Surrender. When he breaks that Tae Kwon Dos teachers knee in the beginning. The face that guy makes, when Jean Claude, is doing the breaking, is comedy gold.🤣😂
@Keaos0 really, it's a really good reaction. Even him limping through the rest of the film looked authentic. Hugh!! Who knew Jean Claude broke his leg. LMAO 😂🤣
I like a few of JCVD's films but "No Retreat, No Surrender" is the only movie where he actually looked competent as a fighter. Maybe "Replicant".
Gotta love this man...so honest!

Lol he went waaaay off track from the question
He explain come on lol
can you blame him his questions are always way too long
The question was way less interesting than the answer so there's that
yes that's why I don´t collider any more
his a star, he turns uninteresting events or situations (questions) to a van damme fable.
I always hear he is super nice guy in real life, he loves his fans!
I can almost hear the synthesizers. I love 80's movies.
His advice was in a story form. He was told he wasnt going to be a star amd struggled until he became one. Just keep trying is his advice.
I think the most important part was recognizing the difference between an actor and a star
The devil chooses who will be a star. He watches people who are desperate and will do anything ...lie, fornicate, steal, live like a bum. And once he feels you have no love of righteousness and he can use you to influence the young ... then he will grant you fame and fortune. Which you will lose after a short time.
@@friendly1870 lol
I couldn't make heads or tails of it, myself
The moral of the story: Follow your dreams and never give up!
The whole interview was fun. It made me smile the whole time I was listening to it. You have to have him on again especially knowing now that you'll only be able to ask him only a few questions but will get a lot of content from him. Did anyone else go watch Bloodsport when they got home in honour of this interview?
I've always admired Jean Claude Van Damme. This guy is a LEGEND. I watched him growing up as a kid and would try to emulate his moves until I got into boxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Love you so much my dear Van Damme,greetings from Azerbaijan!!
Kickboxer, Lion heart, blood sport, double impact, universal soldier.. you will always be one of the greats to me
The man, the myth, the legend.
I will always love JCVD.
No Retreat, No Surrender was one of my favourite movies growing up. Van Damme was badass af
He tried his best to explain his story about this in English. Considering his accent and the difference of translation and how French is used I got it pretty good. Once you study languages, it really breaks down order and allows for flexibility on flow and priority of matter expressed.
Great story, from an odd/different, but honest man, who has obviously been through a whole lot of things and is somehow still with us today. Glad he was on the show, and good for him.
Fun fact: Cyborg is not a movie it's a documentary.
My only regret is that I have but a single “like” to give your comment. You’re doing gods work.
Interesting
hahahahah
its a documentary about California in 2022 under Democrats.
You would think this guy is a genuine Italian with all those hand gestures? Lol
Very animated man!!
But I wouldn't change him for the world. One of my childhood Heroes 👍👍
I’ve always been a Van Damne fan and I’ll will. Great job!
Van damme was the dude all the guys wanted to be back in the day. This man is going to be remembered long past his time.
we love you Jean claude.big respekt for that man having that strong will to make it in life.
Even his story telling is legendary. I don’t have a damn clue what he’s talking about , but still a legend lol
I remember practicing kicks so much after watching his films I actually was a decent kicker before I even started martial arts, Thank you JCVD, anyone else do martial arts because of him?
One of my favorite childhood movies.
“OKAY USA”
The guy and his early films were my biggest inspirations to be "the best I can be!" Still working at it.
i love that minute-long backstory the guy gives before he asks a question that has nothing to do with it
Victor: I'm Lin. You Jackson? You look like a Jackson. That must make you Frank Ducks.
Frank Dux: No, it's DUX.
Victor: Oh, right, like put up your dukes
When I was a kid as well I loved him so much! I practice all the moves from the films. They were over 18 films but they were the best films for a 12 year old.
Dude got me a little choked up talking about watching Van Dam as a kid, my hero 🤩😭
this man was a big part of my childhood. bloodsport, double impact, universal soldier, kickboxer, lionheart are all classics to me.
I actually got to meet him on a film set in North Carolina when he filmed Time Cop, and my father interviewed him for a radio show. He made quite an impression on me as a boy, and it has been fun to watch his career ever since.
KUMITE!!!!! KUMITE!!!!! KUMITE!!!!! KUMITE!!!!!

You break my record...now I break you...like I break your friend 👎
Aren't you a little young for full-contact?
Aren't you a little old for videogames?
Kumite. Lol my auto correct changed kumite to limited 😂
Understood all of it but then again I listen to every Jean-Claude Van Damme interview in the world.
Basically to get the role he he did his spin kick and did the splits right in front of his desk and after that the guy said bring me the script Bloodsport and boom.
And what he was trying to say about the script was the script was a rip off Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon. That's why It had Bolo in it. And the famous lines brick don't hit back. Bolo was the reason the movie got eyes on it cuz he was in Bruce Lee's movie. And then when the movie was finished they played it for the studios and they said it was crap.
Van dame recut the moive his self took like 3 months. And when the studio seen it they decide to release in Select theaters after it was apparent it was a hit they put it out in America and soon as it reach Europe ge was a star and only got paid like a hundred and fifty thousand for like for movies
Bolo Young once said that Bruce Lee and Jean claude Van Damme were the best martial artists that he met in his entire life.
Thanks for that translation
I think you missed it. Van Damme was literally down on his luck, stealing food to survive, in that meeting he was likely on his knees begging for a chance, which is why the producer told him to sit and then asked if he wanted cookies and milk. That's what Van Damme meant with "Too strong"
@@dragonballsuper1519 naw I got it pretty good. Trust . The milk and cookies is something I didn't even speak on ...but he offered that to him because he was fin 2 fucking cry. But you don't got to believe me you can dig through interviews like I did and find out yourself. But most of his in-depth interviews are in French. So happy trails
@@dragonballsuper1519 the picture you see on my profile comes from Venice Beach in LA in 1985-6 i was working at the Restaurant in Beverly Hills when i first met Jean-Claude with Michel Qissi (Mohammad) i remember seen Jean-Claude hitting a parking meter with he's fist so that the metes give out free parking time. one of the night he had a rental Mercedes car to show off to a producer at the restaurant, in that time he was driving a small green pick-up Nissan. i have more story about him.
Huge JCVD fan. Love his movies.
My mom worked with him on the set of hard target in New Orleans Louisiana. Me being a kid loving him I wanted to meet him so bad and when I asked my mom she said she asked him and he was the biggest asshole on earth about wanting to meet a kid. Almost acted like he was to good for a kid to even be speaking to him...lmmfao that’s my memory of him... here’s a bettter story of a mega star my uncle is Patrick Swayze and I was in the movies fatherhood with him nothing but a extra but he stayed at our house road in our car and became my uncle after that. I’ll never forget he told me I’ll never forget your name he said that to me the first time I ever met him. And I felt like hot shit saying Patrick swayze will never forget my name. Wasn’t until I got older I realized his brothers name is Kyle as well...lmmfao I thought that was the coolest thing. Uncle Patrick stayed in touch and visited all through my life all the way up until he died. Rip UNK PAT
So Swayze wasn’t your uncle at all. He was just someone you met and spent time with and got to know. In order to be your uncle he needs to be a) your parent’s sibling or married to one of Swayze’s or his wife’s siblings. He wasn’t your uncle and he didn’t have a brother named Kyle either. His two brothers were Don and Sean. You’re full of shit.
@@mattphelan6604
Sean's middle name is Kyle
rbeck3200tb40 then its still not his name. Its a middle name. No one introduces themselves as their middle name.
My favorite scene in Bloodsport, is when there is a montage of fights with music. The particular moment is when one of the fighters jumps in slow motion and does an inside crescent kick to his opponent's face, and the guy who gets hits turns the wrong way! It's so funny cause it's a total error and it's in slow mo.
"Who cares if Bruce Springsteen is his Shidoshi?"
I thought I was the only one who ever caught that....😂😂😂that erks my last pinky toe nerve every time I watch him go the wrong way after the kick!
YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE A TANAKA...
What the hell is a Dim Maak?
I know the exact moment. Thanks for bringing it up!
Its actually: what's the difference if Bruce Springsteen is his shidoshi.
I also remember it as what's the difference..
Maybe Mandela effect
Wow, incredibly inspiring story. Spent much of my teen years also as a chubby kid enamored of Jean watching all of his movies and aspiring toward something more because of his performance. Quite a thing now to get the backdrop of his true story during those years, directly from him. Seems like a humble man, and wise too. Would just be a dream come true to hang with him just for a few hours and listen.
He seemed the most "real" in Bloodsport.
First Van Damme movie I saw was bloodsport. Was babysitting and i needed a movie to watch. Everytine i babysat for them i watch the movie on repeat, finally the dad gave me the movie. Since then I collected ALL Van Damme movies, vhs and dvds. My favorites are Double Impact and The Quest. JCVd also was very good
LOL, Mark loves the word "matriculate"...he must say it on the air 3-4 times a week.
keefriff99 lol, i just commented that myself. He didn’t use correctly either but oh well
He has no idea what it means lol
He is a star and always will be, on screen and off
and my favourite film is TIMECOP STARRING JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME and HARD TARGET ALSO STARRING JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME,and yes i have excellent taste in movies lol
Jean Claude Van Damme is and will always be The Man
Bruce Lee and Van Damme vs Bolo Yeung were the most iconic movie scenes i can remember growing up.
the title says "Van Damme Tells "'CRAZY" story" i didn't know it was literally going to be crazy -- mental institution crazy. Love Van Damme but didn't understand shit lol.
😂😂😂😂😂👍👍
See...? You can do this TH-cam stuff without click-bait :))
Humble man
Great guy! Met him in person in 2013! He was really nice and humble !
It’s like hearing a story from my grandpa!
What did he just tell us???
😂😂😂

I was and still am a huge fan of JCVD. When I was six years old I watched Bloodsport. When I saw him jump up and do the splits, I told my family “I can do that.” I dropped to the floor and did them.
He had a hell of a run, and that was against sly , Arnold, seagal..... love his movies.
What a minute what is he talking about?😂😂😂
he is talking about your ugly face.
He's saying don't become a star
It's crazy to hear how flat broke Vam Damme was and then. Bam, Bloodsport is in his lap and he never looked back.
