The Problem with Steven Seagal
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 мар 2021
- I want to talk about the problem with Steven Seagal because Steven Seagal is a bit of an enigma in the world of martial arts.
On the one hand, he's managed to become an extremely accomplished martial artist. He's known as the first American to run an Aikido dojo in Japan, and he was one of the biggest action movie stars in the world in the early 90s.
Despite all of his accomplishments, it doesn't take very much effort to find a lot of really bad stuff about Seagal whether it's his diva attitude on set, some weird stuff he's said to people, jokes about his appearance, or a long list of allegations made by women who have worked with him.

Back off Steven... Take him on or shut up.
U slander too much
@@MrApril40 he is completely right, look up how jean-claude van damme put the fear in segal and made him flee everytime he approached him for a 1 on1
seagull is a fraud period
and aikido is more than questionabale as a martial arts
You make an excellent point that Seagal's true story is very likely far more interesting than his fake tales.
So the real question is why did Steven chose fiction over reality???
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.
Right behind you.
Hes the real deal .
Sensei Segal knows aikido apkido ninjitsu judo karate and ten other dangerous words
Your on the Down with Seagal Band Wagon because IT's POPULAR and you cannot think for yourself. Better yet, challenge Seagal to a fight and you most likely will lose.
@@thecarnosaurchannel2819 You are weak and follow others whom are weak and liars.
@@HighSpeedNoDrag Lol no! Its all because it gives me a good laugh, and more over it does not help that he is a douchebag. Sure I will, after I do see him in a real fight
Steven Seagal is a master at Bullshido.
the bullshido looks allot like square dancing, hahahahahaha.
He's a Bullshito. 💩
Oh my God hahahahaha that was a good one.
🤣🤣🤣🤣💯
You actually mean "Bullshit-Do"?
"Kukido" is the martial art that lets you avoid being hurt by an assailant, while discreetly checking his pockets for cookie dough.
🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Parabéns pelo seu raciocínio de granito.
Poopido is the martial art Judo Gean used on Steven that one day....
Nice! Im wondering if "Pupido" might be more credible, but no, you nailed it, "Poopido" leaves no room for doubt. Classic stuff!
Steven Seagal is a real life, grown-up Eric Cartman.
I said the same thing after watching South Park’s safe space episode
Watch Red Eye Review, the narrator mimics Seagull in a EC voice its hilarious
That's more of an insult to Eric Cartman 🤣
Facts
Seagull is a monster. His video from the prison where the Ruzzians burned The Azov Warriors alive sums him up in one:
Full of shit and with no morals whatsoever. I hope he stays in Ruzzia, where he apparently belongs, with all the other psychopaths, sociopaths and sex cases. Bullshido or not, we know how to deal with nonces here, so I hereby issue this challenge... I have no martial arts training but come to Hampshire, you wrongun and I'll happily give you what you deserve.
Dirty scumbag. 🇬🇧
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.
It’s a bad case of narcissism which I don’t think is completely his fault. But he now he wants to be liked so bad he’s willing to cower to Russia. I like Seagal though. It’s almost like he’s a troll without realizing it and has everyone’s panties twisted. You’re like the only comment out of millions that had a decent opinion without insult.
well he was a legend on the big screen... keyword.. was.. if i was him id retire with my millions and go live in a small town somewhere.
Kinda sad tbh. I'm not sure what happened or was he always like that. Some of his old movies were pretty good and atleast I enjoyed them and the fighting scenes were great. I'm talking about Above the law, Hard to kill etc.
And the thing is at this point NO ONE DOES! The people that watch these Segal movies are mainly RUclipsrs laughing at him. It's like watching The Room it's so bad it's funny. But it's not meant to be at all. Segal must not watch ANY criticism of himself and just shuts him self away from it. I kinda wanna kidnap him and make him watch a watchalong of his movies with the YT'ers critiquing it and ripping it apart and laughing at his waddle and his voice and asking him WHY do you talk like that? A lot of whys in fact would be asked. I just want him to see people laughing at him. 🤣
Hes using the same formula since Hard To Kill until today.
The problem with Steven Seagal is quite simple: narcissism.
Facts
A special kind of it.

Nah its ‘delusion’
@@onizukaeichiki470 It's both. He's the Donald Trump of martial arts
Sadism aswell as narcissism 👍😀
Kevin had me laughing with the choke hold story 😂
He is the greatest martial artist ever to live. He told me himself!
he can actually punch out JCVD in his sleep! meaning he can sneaks up on JVCD while he sleeps and then punch his lights out in his bed!
😂😂
Reporter- "Steven Segal is Under Siege again"😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ummm…… can I laugh in your face 😂
More like his belt line is under siege!
😂🤣😂🤣 best comment
lol
😂😂😂
Steve knows Aikido, Karate, Kung Fu, Jiujitsu and other dangerous words.
He's also a master of Bullshido!
😂😂😂😂
You stole this comment.
Does that mean, his Japanese name is, "WADA-LOADA BULLSHIDO"?!
HOLY SHITS
😂🤣
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.
Seagal has a black belt in Kyokushin Kai. He also coached Anderson Silva and Lyota Machida in Aikido. According to Dana White, they told him that Seagal was "the real deal", whatever that means.
Aikido is Judo,and a combo of other martial arts.
GOOD TRANINING .!!!! 👍😎....
In the ring the stuff that works is against the rules.Eye gouge,throat strikes,hair pulling,kicking the groin.All the stuff they teach in self defense class.
GOOD FUNDATION !!!! . NOW APPLY YOUR SELF . TO A GOOD ( JOB OR MARTIAL ARTS OR LAW INFORCEMENT) , TECHING !!!!! ...👍😎👍📚📚....HELP OTHERS 🙏....
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.
You can’t even beat a mouse
@@GreatwhiteShark88 he can definitely beat you. pretty sure you're weaker than a mouse.
@@GreatwhiteShark88you make no sense.
@@M60gunner1971 sorry for your inconvenience sir…
From my own studies of the martial arts, my estimation of aikido is essentially my estimation of tai chi, and similar "martial" arts. They borrow some absolutely credible forms and foundational philosophies from older or similar styles, and maybe have some close combat applications in selective rare circumstances. Their true benefit, however, was a mild melding of physical exertion and meditative energy - excellent for maintaining physical health and generally helpful for centering the spirit.
Would you agree with me there? I've never practiced aikido, only watched and read about it. With my above analysis in mind, it seems kind of offensive for Seagal to project an entirely different energy when he uses "aikido" - not just directly aggressive, but undertaken as a combat sport, without much of that contemplative attitude I mentioned before.
He`s a legend in his own mind.
Lmao
In his movies he never gets a scratch. Used to make me laugh.
He is a legend at Burger King, McDonalds, KFC etc, etc, etc,
and a mind is a terrible thing to waste
Fun fact he has reverse baldness his hairline marches back the forward and it brought with it a black donut around his mouth.
He's like Frank Dux if Frank Dux lived in a KFC.
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!!! 🤔🤔🤔
The turkeys were too big so I bought a chicken 🐔. Just finished stuffing it.
I'd like to see him fight Scott Adkins.
@@lewiscrawford1480 ooooh, now that would be TRUE entertainment!!!! 😬😬😬
as if that definition stopped a lot of people from doing bad things.
I met prisoners who follow God closely and still slap people in the face then regret it.
@@ShutUpCleanYourMonitor Those are the kinds who are human beings with FLAWS, it doesn't make them bad people, but it does make you HYPOCRITICAL if you continue to do things that you KNOW are wrong!!! 🤔🤔🤔
The problem with Steven Seagal is that he is Steven Seagal. Running like a little seven-year-old girl doesn't help either.
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 !
You forgot Out For Cheeseburgers.
"Above the slaw" LMFAOOOOOO!!!!!
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!
the fact stunt workers refused to work with this psychopath says alot. he was using full force in the action shots, thats why the movies came out so good. what a absolute scum bag.
Yes It was Keenan Ivory Wayans said It.
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.
This is the thing about claims, and rumors. Would you ask him yourself if you got the chance? or do you think he'll strait up lie.
Maybe he took over it for a while, he seems to be multi-tasking a lot in his life. He technically didn't explain it enough I see, now people run around deciphering what he says and you're just settling for what you think happened when you weren't there.
That's called schizophrenia. Believing things that you think to be true.
Just remember, you'll die thinking that is the truth. You've now spread it out into the internet that this is the truth.
You're talking about someone you don't even know.
He actually stalked his teacher and followed her. Her father liked him, she did not.
@@mmsm6370 Her? so the fact we know he stalked means he wasn't trying to hide it.
Man was trying to get laid like everyone else in the world. Although Above the law I think it was has him saying, "life isn't all about sex" something like that.
He 's a creep who doesn't hear no.
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
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 ...
The problem with Steven Seagal is

Loving watching your videos...learning some things I don't even know about💯
Thanks for watching 👍
@@GoldenbellTraining your very welcome. Your very awesome💯
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
He's a Russian now. He changed his accents depending who is talking to him.
Still, I personally would not want to fuck with him....If he and I were drinking in a bar, he could say damn near anything he wanted and the only words outta MY mouth will be "uh-huh" and perhaps even "AMEN" (And perhaps "Excuse me for a moment" if he got so smashed he wanted to fight me out in the parking lot.)
No he’s said he was a whale.
He never claimed to be a SEAL.
It's kinda the same thing with Frank Dux. That guy also fabricated and lied about his background and martial arts skills (and trained JCVD for the Bloodsport film). Honestly, where do they find these people? 😅😅
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....
I can't read another word after you saying, keep his mouth shut.
That's called being docile. To avoid butthurting people.
@@ShutUpCleanYourMonitor idk man, i get that actors when interviews sometimes pretend or say stuff just to get more notorious. But if he was a really professional actor and showman he would've gotten involved with top hollywood producers etc. He instead had to resort to B movies.
@@biohazard8295 I bet you call metal genre B emo screamo music genre. Or Eyedea B rapper. Rhymesayers B Freestylers. Professionalism is a choice the way hollywood and resumes in general work. If you want to be a professional gamer then join ESports? recording laptimes on youtube must B Gamers then. I think you're saying he should've sold out, and you'd probably tell Rocky to not walk away and fight, don't B-Boxer.
@@biohazard8295 If Deadpool was really a professional superhero he would've gotten involved with top heroes like X-Force etc. He instead had to resort to killing people.
@@biohazard8295 low budget movies are good.

Great video. Truly informative! Great job, I really enjoyed it. Thanks.
@Goldenbell Training
Hi,
Have you got any idea of who and when promoted Seagal 7th dan and sihan?
Thanks,
Thomas
You notice that every Steven Seagal movie he never get scratched up or a cut and his hair is always geled back perfect😆😆😆
And in all of them, he does his funny run.
That was not his real hair.
That's precisely what dissuaded me into watching any of his movies. Found them extremely boring.
I also like how in the rare occasion Seagal dies in a film he's the one that does it to himself lol.
AND! He never, ever ages! His hair gets darker and darker with the years (and the gallons of dye, of course!) His hair doesn't even look like his own hair, it looks actually like a Tupee or a Wig. Bruce Lee became a living legend but good ol' Steve just faded away. I don't even watch his movies anymore.
The only opponent Steven couldn't beat was the dinner table!
More like the only opponent he can demolish
He couldn't beat anything but another dinner.
Ouch ooh damn your to murch LOL!!!#
He could put a buffet out of business.
He's a little hungry
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.
Yes, it is fake news... because I'm looking deeper into Seagal, and he's much worse than anything I said in this video 🙂
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! 💓
Great video, dude. Informative, well-researched and not in your face. Keep up the good work!
Let me just say that this video is far from well researched....
@@kalan-electpaddy4990 maybe you can make your own “well researched”video then, and show everyone the truth. Have at it.
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.
Supposedly he almost got into a fight with van damme at slys house

Steven Seagal is just living as a Visual Novel Protagonist.
What's the movie in the clip at 5:25? I've been looking for that one since I was a kid.
Really enjoy your low key, respectful videos: keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching 👍
@@GoldenbellTraining - hey man, I just stumbled across your “Steven Segal is a monster” video. Great stuff my friend. I sincerely like your style. You are very well researched and have a great style. I wouldn’t normally watch videos about Hollywood guys but I’m really glad I came across your videos. Keep up the great work and all the best. Edit: I also think I can learn a lot from watching your videos. A lot about much more important things then some has been who is only a legend in his own mind. ;)
There are no problems with Steven Seagal, as long as we never see him in a movie again, thank you Russia, keep him there!
I realy like your Steven Seagal Content. You do an excellent job speaking, Very clear! Great vid 👍🏻
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.
*whispery voice* Well, that’s a shame because… *music intensifies* …I didn’t… *snaps neck*
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.
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.
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 👍
Me "what's your style?"
Steven Seagal "the art of fighting without farting !"
Sammy the Bull tells a great story about how Seagal crying
Excellent video, Sir. You’ve confirmed what many of us already suspected. Thank you!
I bet steven seagal actually believes that he actually fought in the movies he made.
You were at Sasebo? I was at Yokosuka for a couple of years. Japan is an extraordinary place. I miss it a lot.
I love these videos with the title that starts off with: “the problem with”.
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.
He is god
true, he started out as a hard man and later became the soft old man, like everyone...
"That short black kid who can jump high and can't do a split"... lol I wasn't prepared 😂
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.
Ancient Buddhisr practice tantric and yab/yum strike Westerners as odd, but seem to relate to some reported S. private life.
His Buddhist "name' is on a broken monastery in China which I wish he would be able to visit someday.
" Grab 'em by the biscuit" lol. You're a fool for that one. Lol
🤣🤣🤣
Really enjoying these. Thank you Prince
I see exactly where you're going with all this. And I know exactly what it sounds like. Excellent episode.
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!
Other than the fact that he's lost his mind, everything is just fine.
The problem with Steven Seagal is........ the list goes on and on.
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)
There's only one detrimental problem with Steven Seagal : The fact that he exists.
Stop it sensei Seagal is a beast he even beat up pat Morita in 1995
who would you laugh at if people like Seagal
didn't exist....
😂😂
Just found your channel man from that mortal Kombat video and dam is it unreal 👑
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
Segal said he would fight whoever would come on the condition of: no rules, cameras, etc. No one showed up.
He's a legend in his own mind.....
Steven has a God complex..... he thinks we should be in awe of him.
Chuck Norris can still kick Steven's ass.
Well we do all rotate around him due to his gravitational pull.
@@34thstreetman yep
He’s a narcissist
Informative. Thanks!
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.”
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.
Wow...thank you again for another informative video. ✌🏻💖
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...
Do the Japanese have a similar system of internal martial arts like the Chinese such as Tai Chi or Bagua?
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.
i was a junior in high school back in 89' taking an auto shop class. Our teacher was also our high school varsity wrestling coach and a 5th degree blackbelt in jiu jitsu. I remember walking in one morning and he was watching a VHS tape(remember those??damn!) with a couple other guys i knew, of Steven Segal showcasing his Aikido skills at a martial arts tournament. When i asked our teacher if he was seriously any good? He looked me straight dead in the eyes in his calm cool and collected way we all knew him as and said, he's better than seriously good and could F up anyone hands down. When i chuckled and asked our teach how do you know from watching a VHS tape, he said because he was the one recording that tape at that tournament, and that he and his Jiu jitsu students got to train with Segal. I knew then Segal was no joke because our teacher was no joke when it came to MMA b4 there ever was a UFC. Not to mention Segal was married to Kelly LeBrock from the flick 'Weird Science'. She was a near perfect 10 ! Hottest model/actress there ever was. I'll never understand why he Harvey Weinstein'd these women....
He's always been a huge joke.
Apparently Steven Seagal bots are a thing... Who'd have thought?
Steven Seagal knows Judo, Taekwondo, Jiu Jitsu, Kung Fu, Muay Thai, Aikido and other dangerous words.
🤣🤣🤣This gave me a nice laugh. Thank you⭐️
✨😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
As do I
You think you can tell him that face-to-face in a BAR after BOTH of you had 5 shots of Tequila in under 30 minutes?? Just curious.
Me? If HE had no alcohol, and I drank about 14 Sierra Nevada's in under say 3 hours, I might be bold enough to challenge him to a game of pool or maybe an arm wrestle. A few more beers and about 45 minutes later, I might try to bet him that I could get more hot chick's phone numbers** before closing time than him (or at least more clapping after I sing karaoke than when HE sings karaoke).😂😂
**They would even be REAL numbers.😉
Wassup Fam. I enjoyed the content.i I didn't know you cut your hair, I hope all is well Fam 👏✊

Steven Seagull taught me the art of None-Fu
Hi Steven Lambert was interviewed on Viking Samurai and he talks about what happened with Gene Lebell and Seagal also has a book just in case you haven't mentioned it in one of your other videos
Hi Prince Just found your site. Very enjoyable! THX
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.
Thank you for sharing your own skills and point of view, but here’s my response to your criticisms of Segal and Aikido. I studied Aikido for 11 years and the techniques themselves are not ineffective, because they are used and imitated in other martial arts, such as Hapkido, MMA, and by Bruce Lee himself, and he referenced it in an interview. The only problem with it is that you need to train to a very high level to start using it as a whole in real situations - like Segal. Aikido gradings are carried out by a team of judges, and their advice is referred to by whoever is giving the grade, so even if his sensai had fallen asleep, it wouldn't have made any difference. Personally I don't have much time for Me Too accusations, backed up by little or no evidence, just look at Johnny Depp. Photos of people making mistakes in public are easy enough to get if paparazzi follow them around for long enough, people bump into others all the time. Criticizing a martial art style that you've never studied in any depth, and clearly have no understanding of, does not speak well for your knowledge of martial arts in general. There are several schools of Aikido, so his style may seem “unconventional.” Unfortunately, making these kind of character assassinations of a big martial arts star only makes you look jealous. Nobody is a saint, but Steven Segal has made proactive stands on law and order and the environment, which is more than many stars. He's modestly admitted he always had a problem with Aikido as he's tall, so it's difficult for him to lower his center of gravity, for one thing. Now he's a fat, much older man, it’s easy to laugh, but he keeps evolving his skills and has inspired a lot of people, including me, on their martial arts journey, and trained others such as Anderson Silva. Steven Segal is not a monster, especially to anyone who really understands Aikido. I’d really like to see you go up against him, you might learn something.
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
Don't ever get between Steven Seagal and his Donut!
To corroborate what you mentioned about stunt men not wanting to work with Segal, Michael Jai White also made mention that Steven actually hits stunt men for real on set. Mjw said this during a Vlad-Tv interview.
Never forget Seagal drove a freaking tank through some guys house and ran over his dog....
Steven story reminds me of. Beverly Hills Ninja the great white fat ninja".
Media destroyed him... Is why he probably put weight on I feel for the guy I don't think he is a bad a person who is sharing his knowledge of the martial arts to the world is dedicated person not selfish should look what he's trying to do help people achieve their goals
Is that the cousin to the Hillbilly Ninja?
This was quite entertaining and mostly spot on. WRT his secret techniques: I practiced throughout Japan from 1983 thru 2004. Different dojo have different emphasis. My first dojo in Yamaguchi, Japan taught technique that was “earlier in the evolution” of Aikido. Somewhat more direct, more combative, and with more atemi (strikes). By contrast, Hombu dojo in Tokyo is more flowing, less direct, more abstract and with few if any atemi. Fundamentally the same techniques though. The former is more directly persuasive though while the later is more refined and aspirational.
Aspirational? Is that a euphemism for wishful thinking?
Interesting..
Great video man. Yeah, Seagal has issues. Haha. New sub. Take care.
Thanks for watching 👍
He may be a monster but he was amazing on Mad TV.
WILL SASSO!! That guy is hysterically funny.
The problem with Steven Segal is that he’s Steven Segal
Lmbooooooo!!!!
Perfect answer.
VIDEO VERY WELL DONE SIR! LIKE A LOT OF FOLKS, I WAS INTRIGUED WITH THE "ABOVE THE LAW" FILM (IN '87 I EVEN BOUGHT THE DVD). WHEN SEAGAL'S FILM "WHO DID BOBBY LUPO" CAME OUT WHERE HE HAD A WEIRD ITALIAN ACCENT, I WAS OUTTA-THERE. MY INITIAL THOUGHT OF THE FILM WAS: "WTF"?. HE IS A SEVERE NARCISSIST ON AN OTHER WORLDLY LEVEL. AGAIN, A WELL PRESENTED COMMENTARY ON A REALLY STRANGE PERSON (SEAGAL).
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 RUclipsr 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.
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'!
Prince, this title is misleading. "the problem with steven seagull" Really?
It should read. "The problems with steven seagal." That is more accurate. Thanks.
Way to nitpick
He taught Anderson Silva how to front kick!
I never stormed a dojo.
But I stormed HoJo's back in the day. Those fried clams were epic!
Lord I just realized that the newsreporter 10:22 really said that Steven Segal was under siege and I damn near spat my drink out. xD
Good video this dude been going down hill for a long time he is at the end of his road but I do love the martial art
He is true. In a false world. That's his problem.
Man, a lot of people seem to dislike Seagal. He really seems to be UNDER SEIGE all the time. I mean its not like he thinks hes ABOVE THE LAW or something. If words could kill he would be HALF PAST DEAD........GLIMMER MAN.
🤣🤣😂😂
We all have problems. To dwell on the imperfections of others takes valuable time away from our attempts to correct our own glaring faults. I certainly have many. How about you?
The ear slap in the beginning is probably one of the goofiest things I’ve ever seen 😂😂 . I rewinded it at least 10 times.
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.
I guess people tolerate him because he is so entertaining making a fool of himself.
