Whenever I am down and depressed, I click on any Steven Seagal Feature in youtube and just read the comments section. It never fails to give me a good laugh.

"Kukido" is the martial art that lets you avoid being hurt by an assailant, while discreetly checking his pockets for cookie dough.

Steven Seagal is a real life, grown-up Eric Cartman.

The problem with Steven Seagal is quite simple: narcissism.

Steven Seagal is a master at Bullshido.

If Seagal had learned to laugh at himself a bit I think he would still be relevant today, but he seems permanently locked in tough-guy mode, and would prefer people believe he is the legend on the screen.

Kevin had me laughing with the choke hold story 😂

He is the greatest martial artist ever to live. He told me himself!

Reporter- "Steven Segal is Under Siege again"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Steve knows Aikido, Karate, Kung Fu, Jiujitsu and other dangerous words. He's also a master of Bullshido!

The problem with Steven Seagal is that he is Steven Seagal. Running like a little seven-year-old girl doesn't help either.

I started in the martial arts as teen in 1977 in a dojo that had multiple arts, a version of karate that was a "mixed" style, as well as black belts in Aikido, Judo and Ed Parker's Kenpo teaching their style, and some level of cross training in other things as well. Now I do BJJ. The old days were interesting times, but there wasn't wide understanding of what is effective in martial arts, and much of the traditional stuff isn't very effective. The attitude of "my kung fu is stronger than your kung fu" was a real thing back then. Now you get in the ring and prove it, and we know what works there. Back then it was easier to fool yourself about what worked. But also more insecurity about your martial art, doubts based on not using it in full force situations, which in turn would lead to confrontational attitudes (even dojo "wars"). I post this because it probably factors into Segal, who's primary style isn't effective. IIRC he also has black belts in karate and Judo. The karate likely was non-contact. Judo is clearly legit of course. But his fight skills (at his peak) are nowhere near what some might have once thought, and somewhere in his head he has to know this.

He`s a legend in his own mind.

What's more hilarious about his claims, is he didn't open, nor even technically run a Dojo in Japan. It belonged to his father-in-law and Seagal just trained there.

Steven Seagal's aikido in his early films was known as "street aikido", more closely resembling aiki-jitsu which is the forerunner of aikido, it's a more aggressive style that looks better in movies. I took aikido lessons about 20 years ago for about 6 months and it was much more relaxed than Seagal's moves, but it was a great experience I'll never forget.

I remember his movie "Hard to Take" when I was young - loved it - totally lived up to the titles promise I could hardly take that movie... then I remember he came out with "Marked for Bread" and he had his big personal battle with starch in that one.. Still, my favorites were "On Breadly Ground" and "Above the Slaw" and then of course "Beyond the Slaw" (great BBQ action movies)... He's done so much from his battle with starch and pork, to his comic portrayal showing men how stupid they look with guns when they don't know anything about them (every movie of his). I love Stephen Seagull !

In The Glimmer Man he has one of the characters say that he (Steven) fights like Bruce Lee only better. That's the size of the ego of the man!

that short clip at the very beginning always makes me chuckle without fail, no amount of movie magic can make me believe Seagal could take Mike Tyson even for a millisecond

Not a martial arts guy, I don't act tough, because humility taught me something the hard way, always a good start in life, no matter what age.

This man has told so many lies He claimed to be in the CIA and was a seal I think he has low self-esteem He wants to be the center of attention Period

The problem with Steven Seagal is ........Steven Seagal

I bet steven seagal actually believes that he actually fought in the movies he made.

Steven Seagal is just living as a Visual Novel Protagonist.

I do admit, I did enjoy the earlier films of Steven Segal when he seemed like an authentic martial artist. But when he began to display a lot of arrogance, belligerence, disrespect, & the horrible stories of how he allegedly abused & terrified women, I came to the conclusion that this man is a POOR example of a martial artist, because the purpose of the arts is to obtain DISCIPLINE. What it teaches is not to HURT people, but to HEAL & HELP people!!! 🤔🤔🤔

You notice that every Steven Seagal movie he never get scratched up or a cut and his hair is always geled back perfect😆😆😆

In my opinion, if you are truly great at something. You don't have to tell people you are good. OR continually run others down. Build yourself up or run others down. Your actions and attitude will tell the world who and what you really are ...

In a recent interview with Steven, he said he briefly met Bruce and that was it. He never said he fought Bruce. Last time I checked, Steven still has a full head of hair. This is fake news.

The only opponent Steven couldn't beat was the dinner table!

You're right on about ol' Steven. If he just kept his mouth shut and learned a thing called "being humble" he could have been one of the biggest movie stars around. Not to mention all the blatant lies. Imagine he was on that Arsenio Hall show and when Arsenio asked him what he thinks about other movie martial artists he said - "I think they are all good. I enjoy their movies." That's all he had to say. So simple. Just think of the respect and admiration he would have gotten. Instead he made everyone hate him. I guess he never heard that what makes a man great is when he is respected but not feared....

The problem with Steven Seagal is........ the list goes on and on.

Never forget Seagal drove a freaking tank through some guys house and ran over his dog....

There are no problems with Steven Seagal, as long as we never see him in a movie again, thank you Russia, keep him there!

The problem is this guy had been given a great opportunity in life. Yet he wasted it. He could have come out as a great superstar. He was his own worst enemy. Great opportunity comes to only a few. This guy should have been better at respecting people.

I played Judo to Dan grade, and not only did I learn a great combative sport, but I learned humility, respect and life lessons that will stay with me forever.

Seagal's early movies were so good but dang if the dude isn't caught up in the weirdest stuff in real life, seems like his word is not trustworthy either, all of the stories are just wild! Great video 👍

Method is ok but no physical conditioning at all. He would die of a heart attack in a real fight now. Definitely bloated on his ego too.

Sammy the Bull tells a great story about how Seagal crying

What's the movie in the clip at 5:25? I've been looking for that one since I was a kid.

As for "The Way of Peace" and Steven, that reminds me a Mad TV episode, where "Steven" says: "Don't make me go off the way of peace, and go with the way of pieces" (something along those lines)

My karate teacher introduced a friend to a friend that knew Steven. Steven gave this guy a stuntman job and extra training. Now if this was true I guess this was a nice thing.

Great video, dude. Informative, well-researched and not in your face. Keep up the good work!

I met and was around Mr. Seagal (S) briefly in 1998 and a few other times since. I don't know anything about his legitimacy, his career, or his later life. I was trying then to do a large documentary about the Buddhist diaspora, In a brief exchange, he agreed to voice my documentary after seeing a script, Around that time he had become a student of several Buddhist masters; one prominent teacher of him via a standard methodology foumd him as TULKU, and Buddhist Terton (Treasure Finder.) Although he was named by a very high rimpoche as a very high modest master, he took a lot of flak from that label as well as his unusual connection between his movies and his Buddhist role. None of the pundits criticizing him then made mention of what his Buddhist discovery meant, which was very serious and important to the American Buddhist hierarchy at the time. When I was in LA, he invited me to his home there and I waved to Kelly Lebrock who was walking through the room with their baby. S. was very cordial to me and reiterated his interest to voice my movie; I saw him sometime after that when HH the Dalai Lama was teaching in Bloomington, America. S. gave a brief Buddhist teaching after that event and was again quite cordial to me. I made a smaller movie and lost track of S. The connection with his co-producer Nasso and Mafia connections hit the newspapers and S. fulfillrd some contractual movie obligations which did not help his career and he went to television. s.

@Goldenbell Training Hi, Have you got any idea of who and when promoted Seagal 7th dan and sihan? Thanks, Thomas

Other than the fact that he's lost his mind, everything is just fine.

He's a legend in his own mind.....

"That short black kid who can jump high and can't do a split"... lol I wasn't prepared 😂

Me "what's your style?" Steven Seagal "the art of fighting without farting !"

Steven has a God complex..... he thinks we should be in awe of him.

Really enjoy your low key, respectful videos: keep up the good work.

Loving watching your videos...learning some things I don't even know about💯

Great video. Truly informative! Great job, I really enjoyed it. Thanks.

There's only one detrimental problem with Steven Seagal : The fact that he exists.

I can confirm that O Sensei was a brutal instructor who’s technique was not soft and friendly like it is today. Saul Smithson used to teach in New Orleans and told his classes that Osensei’s strikes were quite painful.

I clicked on this video because the title was "The problem with Steven Seagal" and IT WAS ONLY THIRTEEN MINUTES AND TWENTYNINE SECONDS LONG! Legitimate burrito master

He’s a fuckin actor! Any practice can beat aikido ! I want to see him get in the ring with ANY champion mixed martial arts fighter

Steven Seagal knows Judo, Taekwondo, Jiu Jitsu, Kung Fu, Muay Thai, Aikido and other dangerous words.

The problem with Steven Segal is that he’s Steven Segal

Brian Cox: “Steven Seagal is as ludicrous in real life as he appears on screen. He radiates a studied serenity, as though he’s on a higher plane to the rest of us, and while he’s certainly on a different plane, no doubt about that, it’s probably not a higher one.”

Segal said he would fight whoever would come on the condition of: no rules, cameras, etc. No one showed up.

I remember a quote from a CIA agent who said that if you'd drop Seagal in front of a McDonald's, he'd still starve to death.

I love these videos with the title that starts off with: “the problem with”.

Hey, he did creat food-ato, the secret is to pack on 2x your body weight and be unable to run or even walk fast, he's a sensei

Steven Segal is trying to incorporate Sumo wrestling into his Aikido and all we hear are jokes about his weight!

Excellent video, Sir. You’ve confirmed what many of us already suspected. Thank you!

" Grab 'em by the biscuit" lol. You're a fool for that one. Lol

Is there such a thing as Fantasy Fu? Or I'm a Dirty Stupid Liar Fu? LOL

A friend of mine was a production assistant on a movie with Steven Seagal a few years ago. He had several young looking Tibetan women following him around. My friend had to drive Seagal around, and he made them go to the edge of town to illegally shoot the production's full-autos for target practice.

Steven Seagal stated that Bruce Lee used to talk badly about other martial artists behind their back. Couple of things wrong with this 1. Its highly unlikely Seagal ever met Bruce Lee due to their 12 year age difference and the fact Seagal was only 21 years old and hadnt even started to learn Aikido when Lee died. 2. People that really knew Bruce Lee said he NEVER spoke ill about other artists, although he DID criticize the martial art theories they taught. 3. It is is fact Seagal that has a tendency to speak badly about other fighters including Michael Jai White, JCVD, Dolph Lungren, George Foreman.

Steven story reminds me of. Beverly Hills Ninja the great white fat ninja".

I'm new to your channel Sir. Love it!! Thank you. Looking for more content. This is really an eye opener. Thank you again Sir! 💓

Does anyone remember The Dirty Dozen back in the early 90s? A team of martial arts experts led by Bob Wall (O’Hara!) who all individually challenged Seagal to a real fight. Bob Wall was fed up with Steven Seagal’s open displays of disrespect for other martial arts public figures. It was all over Black Belt Magazine. (I think the Dirty Dozen challenge later got overshadowed by the then-fledgling Ultimate Fighting Championship, which was even more controversial at the time)

I worked on his property in Montana. At about six foot five 225 pound he was a monster. He had a dojo and many of sparing partners. Masters of the arts from China, Japan and other countries would come to his mid evil manson to play. He was no joke.

He is true. In a false world. That's his problem.

I almost forgot. “Hard to pay the bill” is an obvious one. That’s why he’s doing all these latest sit down comedy’s, I mean films. To pay for his food!

I realy like your Steven Seagal Content. You do an excellent job speaking, Very clear! Great vid 👍🏻

He taught Anderson Silva how to front kick!

Really enjoying these. Thank you Prince

I never stormed a dojo. But I stormed HoJo's back in the day. Those fried clams were epic!

The ear slap in the beginning is probably one of the goofiest things I’ve ever seen 😂😂 . I rewinded it at least 10 times.

Don't ever get between Steven Seagal and his Donut!

Seagal didn't go to Japan until 1971. Seagal didn't even start working with Coburn until he came back from California in 1974 after Lee's death.

Man, he married into running that dojo in Japan. And he was abusive to his wife. He did her dirty as hell.

I kept waiting for you to mention his insane vintage guitar collection. There’s a video where he’s showing them off and pretending to be some kind of shredder, and then he takes them all out on his lawn and lays these half a million dollar antique instruments on the grass in the sun. The man truly is a menace... Just probably not in a fight...

Just found your channel man from that mortal Kombat video and dam is it unreal 👑

Back in the very early 90’s, I was stationed in Korea. I was flying to Korea ( on my mid tour) and I found myself talking to a young Marine. He told me he trained under Seagal. He said Seagal was a martial artist to the stars. What do you mean Marine? He said Seagal charged $2500.00 a month. He said he couldn’t afford Seagal, so he trained maybe twice……… he also said Seagal Aikido is more like Aiki-jujitsu where kicking and punching is the norm but not in traditional Aikido

He may be a monster but he was amazing on Mad TV.

He had a fascination with looking like Eddy Munster.A real mixed breed from 13 countries

He said his son and bruce Lee's son played together 1, Brandon Lee would be 66 years old now. 2.steven Segal's oldest son is 45 years old there is a 21 year difference. 3, bruce lee had died before Steven Segal's son was born. 4, Steven Segal stop lying and just do your martial arts and keep your mouth shut.

Thanks for the thoughtful presentation of the video. Seriously, though a lot of people watch video's of so-called mixed martial art masters who are traditional martial artists and one thing I notice is the poor quality of content. I can see that you took the extra step in professionalism and I hope that put's you ahead of others who are successful but lack the general straight cut attitude you represent. No B.S argumentation just straight raw facts!

Hi there’s some wrong info in your video. Seagal said in official interview that he has never spoken to Bruce Lee nor fought him. He knew Dan for long time, he has only seen Bruce in person for a few time at most, but never spoken to him. This is from his official interviews. Not sure why you keep saying Seagal says this and that negative things without video segment where he said what you claimed he had said. His 7th Dan is no joke he did an collab with a Karate MMA KZfaqr where he demonstrated accuracy of pressure points in person. Also, he countered Labell choke hold in a split second where Labell literally “flew” 3 feet into the air. This was also from an official interview with first hand witness during a filmset.

Informative. Thanks!

If only the scriptwriters of his movies were as creative in their stories as Steven is.

This guy knows no bounds, even though he could be dismantled with simple fact checks. I'm surprised nobody calls him out when they do an interview. He went so far as telling a reporter, back in the 90s, that he had the ability of healing people. He claimed that by watching him on film or TV, those that get it, understand by a very subtle look or movement, and those that don't get will never know.

You were at Sasebo? I was at Yokosuka for a couple of years. Japan is an extraordinary place. I miss it a lot.

Earn what you earn! Do not be arrogant or deceptive ! Your cover will be pulled! Let's.promote the arts with no arrogance !

The gene lebell story of Mr seagal doing a number 2 after a gentle grapple always cracks me up lol

First red flag on Segal I saw was him running like a girl. I just couldn't imagine Bruce Lee running like a girl!🤣🤣🤣🤣

Honestly, whenever I see someone defending him as a martial artist, I just internally chuckle at that person. Believe whatever junk you want, but I ain't buyin'!

For self-defence Aikido is what it is, only the educative value remains. Has he become a gentleman of superior ethics and actions that can be an example to the young and ordinary men?
