One would never think that somebody so successful, distinguished, powerful, handsome and privileged had to fight such horrible demons. This is the most significant interview I have ever seen, thank you!
He is very smart with a iQ of 160 served in Military, enrolled in Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and received a Masters degree in Chemical Engineering in Australia after receiving a scholarship and was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to Massachusetts in Boston Institute of Technology but gave up career in Chemical Engineering to become an actor.
This is one of the best interviews he has done. I looked up to Dolph Lundgren as a kid and teen. Now, I look up to him more as an adult because his life mirrors mine. I see there is light in the end.
Since the movie Universal Soldier I've had huge respect for Dolph Lundgren and Van Damme because I knew they were real fighters and that movie was always fascinating to me as a kid. After hearing some interviews and the Ted talk where he was talking about his father and childhood in Sweden he has become my favorite actor. Because he appears really honest and down to earth and even modest. He's probably also one of the smartest actors in Hollywood. He's in my opinion kind of the ideal actor or action star or even generally as a person. Good looking, tall, strong, good fighter, smart, honest, emotional, and maybe I've forgotten other attributes. He surely also has other not so good sides but he's talking very openly about everything...Dolph Lundgren and Keanu Reeves as well are my favorite actors. And Patrick Swayze.
Fathers in the 60s got away with a lot. My grandpa beat the living crap out of his own wife for the first 25 years of their marriage. That trauma has trickled down into his kids' lives, and his grandkids' lives. It's really unfortunate. So much went on behind closed doors, and those men probably won't ever be legally punished for it.
Yet now we have a pussified society on the brink of World War 3 because of it. Too many kids who probably should have had their asses kicked to set them straight that didn't are now in charge of the levers of power...
I first heard Dolph talk about his story during his TEDTalk and my respect for him skyrocketed. I already admired him, but even more now. You never know what people have gone through in their lives.
its interesting but not really surprising to me now as an adult that a lot of martial artists had a rough childhood. bas rutten, mike tyson.. many others.
I am going through PTSD treatment right now because of what my father did to me. And right now i am mentally unstable and self abusive. He only abused me not my younger brothers, not my big brother or big sister. Only me. So i also blamed myself for many many years, but i know that my grandfather (my dads father) killed himself with a shotgun. And my mom also said that dad got abused alot also. It doesn't excuse what he did to me, but in later years i realised that my father has alot of trauma himself. As a kid i watched TV AAAALL the time, and watched movies all the time. As a Swede and action movie fan, i loved watching Dolph Lundgren movies. He has always been one of my heroes as i also grew up with Red Scorpion and Masters of the Universe. Then i saw his TED talk and he talked about his father and i started to cry. I wish that i was as strong as Dolph, not just physically but also psychologically. I also wished that i could meet him and just say thank you for what he did that he helped me for maybe 90 minutes of joy and entertainment.
Hang in there brother. You’re not done yet. May God (Jesus) be with you. Forgive your father; forgive yourself and rebuild your history. You got this! I wish I could give you a big hug. God bless you brother.
Find something you love and connect with others who share similar passions. Build physical and mental resilience through physical training. Volunteer at a homeless shelter or some type of cause like St Jude. Shift the focus away from yourself and realize you're a lot more fortunate than you think. Find things to be grateful for.
Your father could have spent his life working on his trauma. What he shouldn't have done is have kids and then take out his trauma on them, that's bullshit. People like that don't deserve forgiveness, if you force another human into this world and then take out all your anger on them then I have no sympathy for you. The best thing to do is get financial independance and then leave. If you can't do that, drink a ton of milk, get huge and then beat the shit out of them the next time they decide to use you as a punching bag
At least you're going through the healing process now. Glad to hear it. Lycka till. Det kommer en ljusare dag. Kan inte tänka mig hur sjukt svårt det måste vara, men det kommer bli bättre.
That’s the way it is. You always wish later in life that you could have helped your parent or sibling. And the biggest point or takeaway in this conversation is you have to genuinely and to your soul forgive the person that abused you. Abuse is not only physical, it is also mental. Prayers to Dolph and all who have been through this type of trauma. Believe me when I say forgiveness is the very hardest thing to do. It does not mean a parents or siblings actions are ok. It is their demons that affected not only you but everyone that that person has come in contact with including themselves.
it's very difficult abused kids on top of being abused get parentalized. So they think they must do smth, instead of Just saving themselves. I can just say to abuse victims safe yourself never forget what they did, just go away live your best life and find other ppl who are worthy of your time and love.
What an honor to watch Dolph share about his childhood. I remember him in the late '80's and I thought he was a knockout! I thought his life had to be perfect ..... I was just watching a few of the interviews with him and saw a beautiful side of him. What a spiritual, humble and mature minded man he IS! He is more beautiful now with his soul than in his youth of strength! I am totally impressed by him and such inner strength at how he handled the people in Hollywood who tried to hurt him. More power to you Dolph and may you get a complete healing from the cancer and live the rest of your life in peace and love. Thank you for sharing!
Its so true,we look at someone and think,wow they must of had such a great life,but sadly most never did,some never talk about it,I'm so glad that Dolph is speaking out,it may give others the courage to do the same.
I can only admire him even more now. He has had his troubled days but I can only wish the best of days for this guy from now on. Damn these are pretty hard hitting...
I can relate to this My grandfather raised me and he was a monster when drunk. I miss him a lot and sometimes i could blame myself for calling the police on him😢 wow Dolph this is touching. " I couldn't take a train and go beat him up" I felt that
My father was a mean abusive alcoholic. He beat my mother and almost killed her when she was pregnant with me and just beat her and beat me. It's hurts bad to be insulted and beaten by my father and my mother was also abusive to me and her anger towards my dad took out on me. My father disowned,manipulated and lied to me with the beatings. I definitely needed therapy and I made so many mistakes as a man. I had 2 daughters but I was never there for them like I should of. I take responsibility for my actions but my painful childhood hurt me alot as a father. When my father died I didn't cry. My father said i was to drunk to remember what evil he did which I understand but damn I remember it. Dolph is a great role model for me because I understand his pain and it's nice to know I'm not the only one who experienced abuse. Dolph is Scorpio like me and alot of Scorpios go through alot of pain and suffering but we rise from the ashes .
Awww dolph I'm so sorry for what you had to endure growing up with this kind of abuse but hey look at you now you are successful and have such a positive outlook on life I also came from a aubusive family with my stepmother and ran away at 15 years old but I never got in any trouble at all and I'm here to say that staying positive and strong against any bad situation is key to making it you are an amazing person we are all so proud of what you have become best wishes to you dolph
My dad beat me up for years until i snapped when i was 17 and raised my fists up to him and i swear i was ready to kill him. He never put a hand on me again after that.
Your father should of been arrested for what he did! Your mother should of left him!! By staying with him,she was responsible for what happened to you!! This is outrageous! You are so lucky to have accomplished all you have ,I'm so glad that you are making your past public,and I pray for continued healing in this battle you are facing🙏
My respect that Dolph survived this ordeal. No wonder that he had such issues. I would have asked the same questions in regard to the mother as he. This whole story is so bitter. So much drama in a country which is displayed as heaven on earth.
His father reminds me of mine. He was almost never physically abusive but also is a paranoid choleric who ended up alone with alcohol and benzodiazepine abuse. He also has good sides and used to be a very intelligent medical doctor with an iq in the 140s range but probably also got very bitter about things not working out as planned in his life. He probably would have needed therapy early on to not turn into what he became. But he never could open up in a therapeutic setting because I think he thought no one would get his mental situation anyway.
@@constantlylearnandgrow3487 Not sure about the exact diagnosis but part of the reason probably was that he was bullied as a kid and then learned to defend himself by learning to box and additionally acquiring a hyper agressive attitude. Sometimes that worked well for him in carreer but not so much in private life. When you always think everyone is against you and accuse people of malice who really objectively didnt do much wrong you end up alone as no one truly wants to put up with that. His drinking and med abuse paired with being burned out from work and the financial situation made things even worse as it probaby impaired his judgement of others even more.
@@constantlylearnandgrow3487 How can you make that diagnosis? He only told us a little about his father. Besides, I think narcissism gets bandied around a bit too much in these comments. Smart guy bitter about how life turned out? Must be a narcissist.
A lot of these domestic issues in ex military men, stemmed from service in wars. WW2, Korea, Vietnam etc. Undiagnosed trauma spilled into their domestic lives.
Dolph is correct. It is the mother's responsibilty to protect her children no matter what. That is her job and to not do it is completely unforgiveable. I share his story of abuse.
A sick personality bordering somewhere between intense bi-polar condition and schizo. Sadly, more common around the world than people think. Kudos to Dolph prevailing through such an upbringing to get where he is as well as having the courage to talk about such a personal topic.
Everything that Dolph is saying and everything that he is feeling is completely correct with regard to the abuse that he suffered. It would have made no difference for him to address this with his father. They never admit to what they have done. They deny it or say that they don't remember or they blame it on you and say that you must be imagining it.
Massive respect to him for speaking up about it. His stone cold portrayal of Ivan Drago on Rocky IV was absolutely amazing. It's great to see that his past trauma motivated him to do better in life and achieve such success.
It's strange that Dolph's story mirrors, in some respects, to David Goggins. Some people who go through hell as a child manage to switch the process and achieve greatness. I suppose there are a lot as well that go through the same where the hell consumes them. Very sad either way 😓
Wow. Have the guts to foölpw your heart and instincts pays off instead of a government job in Sweden. Wise words and very important esp. for people in Sweden. Freedom and dreams and not big glvernmemt socialism.
Sometimes the older kids feel like parents are tougher on them then younger siblings as I have 3 kids myself and my oldest daughter who is 6 that I love very much but we may get after her when does things not supposed to but we don’t baby our kids. My twin daughter and son are almost 2 and we tell them no to and so on but we would never do things to hurt them.
You know what's funny is that Rocky made people dislike Dolph Lundgren but he is immediately a stand up fricking guy when you see him express himself in real life
No wonder he attracted Grace Jones. His past with his father’s energy attracted Grace Jones. Seems when people carry this energy they attract more of the same. Grace was a nice loving person I’m sure but she had a definite dark side and projected that. I think he probably got used to abuse and she could dish it out.
😢 Wow his earlier abuse with his dad was played out again when he dated violent partners like Grace.. I always wondered why he would put up with that kind of behaviour. But now it all makes sense
Jesus! Deepest/darkest questions one after another.. bam.. bam. Give Dolph five seconds to catch his breathe, geez. This is some kind of rapid fire therapy session and we’re watching it
I don't understand Dolph saying he was the first son of his dad. The photo shown is from 1960. Dolph was 3 years old at that time and there is a teenage boy in the photo who is not Dolph.
Well probably some children do expect their Mother could protect them but that's not true especially if his Father had Government connections they would not side with his Mother actually domestic abuse victims are often at a higher risk of being killed AFTER they leave it infuriates the control freak abuser who feels entitled to be abusive women are stalked and cops don't do much Dolph played a Russian but in Russia domestic abuse is actually decriminalized despite thousands of women murdered each year.
My father in law, may his soul rest in peace, fucked everything up for me, we was abusive towards his whole family and my ex-wife grew up with no sense of respect for her dad, i don't blame her, so she didn´t trust men, she could not trust me and what is worse, she started abusing me and I had to put up with a lot of shit, I did it in the name of "love" but at the end it was to much that my brain stepped in and protected me, we had some good times but also bad times, I missed her but I know that we can't be together because of all the traumas she's got...
One would never think that somebody so successful, distinguished, powerful, handsome and privileged had to fight such horrible demons. This is the most significant interview I have ever seen, thank you!
Life good or bad, will show up no matter what. No one is excempt from the experience
@@nicoleford4654yeah Even the so called fortunate ones. . . We all go through the grinder
That's how diamonds are made..
Handsome?
Big respect to Dolph for talking about all of the stuff. That sounds very difficult, and he clearly has overcome many obstacles. Hats off to Dolph!
Thank you Dear !
My deepest respect for Dolpf Lundgren for pouring his heart out in this interview.
He’s a man’s man and seems like a really good guy…thoughtful and articulate.
He is very smart with a iQ of 160 served in

I thought the exact same thing. What a great format this is, too! And they portrait the person as it is, no BS fabrication!
What a genuine, relatable and well spoken man.
Fantastic human being, this world needs so many more.
I feel for Dolph. It's not easy to talk about. He went through a lot as a kid.
My Respect and Love to Dolph from Germany for that Interview

We need to get back to those days...jk...kinda lol
@@_munkykok_ dumb
Man…this made me cry.
Dolph you are a true Champion!
I think it’s great to hear this side of him. He achieved a lot despite what happened to him. He didn’t let it hold him back and used it as motivation.
I first heard Dolph talk about his story during his TEDTalk and my respect for him skyrocketed. I already admired him, but even more now. You never know what people have gone through in their lives.
its interesting but not really surprising to me now as an adult that a lot of martial artists had a rough childhood. bas rutten, mike tyson.. many others.
True. I had a similar upbringing. I feel like we're kindred spirits.
Yeah, by him opening up it helps him and others.
@@fourshore502 It awakens the fighting spirit.
Dolph’s story of abuse is shared by far too many of us, unfortunately.
😔Yes sadly indeed, and we didn’t deserve this at all, we deserved so much better….🥺💔😪
Don't pity yourself, become a beast of wisdom.

This whole story is so bitter. So much drama in a country which is displayed as heaven on earth.
He got the looks, the intelligence and strength, fame money respect he's an ubermensch
In some way he should thank his father
but it came with massive amounts of baggage. It ain't all roses.
His father reminds me of mine. He was almost never physically abusive but also is a paranoid choleric who ended up alone with alcohol and benzodiazepine abuse.

His stone cold portrayal of Ivan Drago on Rocky IV was absolutely amazing. It's great to see that his past trauma motivated him to do better in life and achieve such success.
Love his movie's
Why have children if you cannot cherish and love them?
This is one Graham’s best interviews and Dolph is so thoughtful and honest. Well done gentlemen

Dolph är BÄST .... Dolph is the best !!!!!!!
Hardest working man in show building
So hes a realtor? 😂😂
F^ck, that's still sad. Wish he could have this success without those experiences. Dolph seems to be a good guy.
i think for some reason the first son gets the brunt of the abuse from a father
Sometimes the older kids feel like parents are tougher on them then younger siblings as I have 3 kids myself and my oldest daughter who is 6 that I love very much but we may get after her when does things not supposed to but we don’t baby our kids. My twin daughter and son are almost 2 and we tell them no to and so on but we would never do things to hurt them.
Horrible dad
You know what's funny is that Rocky made people dislike Dolph Lundgren but he is immediately a stand up fricking guy when you see him express himself in real life
I think most people are intelligent enough to realize that was just a movie
No wonder he attracted Grace Jones. His past with his father’s energy attracted Grace Jones. Seems when people carry this energy they attract more of the same.

Glad his father got his karma before leaving this world and that Dolph was able to forgive
His father wasn’t worth the help he wanted to give him.
Many of us were systematically abused as kids and no one cared
I forgave him because I knew he didn't want to be that way. That's the love some sons have for their fathers no matter what happened.
think Grace Jones helped him alot can see she was the start of a better life for him
😢 Wow his earlier abuse with his dad was played out again when he dated violent partners like Grace.. I always wondered why he would put up with that kind of behaviour. But now it all makes sense
keep that shit real, when Dolph says FUCK !
Sounds like my father as well ..
Kyokushin karate best
❤
Jesus! Deepest/darkest questions one after another.. bam.. bam. Give Dolph five seconds to catch his breathe, geez. This is some kind of rapid fire therapy session and we’re watching it
Jeepers sounds like me people are whacked
I bet his old man would have A LOT of second thoughts messing with a son that turned out to be as big as Dolph got!!! Sad though...
thumbs down for the censoring bleep.
I don't understand Dolph saying he was the first son of his dad. The photo shown is from 1960. Dolph was 3 years old at that time and there is a teenage boy in the photo who is not Dolph.
maybe his cousins?
Her sons from her first husband.
So in 1965 (he said the 60s, btw) he would be 8 years old. It’s simple math.
@@TeamCat1128 What does 1965 have to do with anything?
It sounds like his father was mentally ill, he must have gone through some real abuse to as a child.
Jisses
Well probably some children do expect their Mother could protect them but that's not true especially if his Father had Government connections they would not side with his Mother actually domestic abuse victims are often at a higher risk of being killed AFTER they leave it infuriates the control freak abuser who feels entitled to be abusive women are stalked and cops don't do much Dolph played a Russian but in Russia domestic abuse is actually decriminalized despite thousands of women murdered each year.
My father in law, may his soul rest in peace, fucked everything up for me, we was abusive towards his whole family and my ex-wife grew up with no sense of respect for her dad, i don't blame her, so she didn´t trust men, she could not trust me and what is worse, she started abusing me and I had to put up with a lot of shit, I did it in the name of "love" but at the end it was to much that my brain stepped in and protected me, we had some good times but also bad times, I missed her but I know that we can't be together because of all the traumas she's got...
