About
Chuck Norris, born Carlos Ray "Chuck" Norris on March 10th, 1940, is a martial artist, actor, and culture star. Chuck Norris is mostly known for his roles in the TV series Walker, Texas Ranger,[3] as well as The Way of The Dragon,[4] where he played alongside Bruce Lee[1].
Chuck Norris has come to represent the epitome of manliness and awesomeness in culture, mostly due to his roles as a fighter in movies and TV shows.
The meme Chuck Norris Facts plays off of this, as all the "facts" deal with Norris' ability to do anything because of his manliness. He can also be seen in many pictures holding two automatic machine guns and/or having an exposed chest, as seen below.
