@@chrischar9428 My apologies, I misspoke, New York State Champ in high school Unlimited Weight, wrestled in college as well as played football for SMU, though football was his primary game. Regardless, he was still legit.
I met Duggan at a local Indy show and he is a massive human being. I am 6 foot tall and 275 lbs and I look like a small child in my pic next to him. His hands are the size of frying pans. A super-nice man as well.
Duggan selling autographed mini 2x4s for $40 apiece is a stroke of genius. Practically a license to print money. If I was at a convention and saw him selling those there I’d immediately buy one!
WOW! And I thought Duggan's 1994 WCW Debut match against Stunning Steve Austin was a Squash match. That match now seems actually competitive compared to what he did to the home intruder.
A former State wrestling champion and NFL calibre football player that beat cancer twice as well as heart surgery, Jim Duggan even at 68 isn't a man to be messed with.
Imagine being tackled by Hacksaw. He's older now, but the man is tougher than a two dollar steak. I can picture getting down in his two point stance and then charging at the sumbitch the second he stepped foot in the house.
I met him in 2006 at a meet n greet in danbury, one of the nicest, most down to earth ppl. He not a character in the ring n there arent many like that in pro wrestling
While a very nice person to good people, this is a man who was blinded by a cowardly attack in a bar, and upon getting his thumb almost bit off by the attacker revealed he stuck his thumb out there so he could finally know where the attacker was, and promptly knocked the coward out.
I just watched Jim Duggan's segment from the Mid-South episode of Stories from the Territories on Vice where he knocked out a guy after he punched Jim in a bar and Duggan knocked him out with one punch.
Mike Mills here. Ricardo Coleman did well documenting JYD's problem already being well known in New Orleans. If Dog stays, the crowds still fall off. Unfortunately, Dog continues down his path and continues cooling off in an area that folks had already seen enough of him. I loved JYD to death but it was time for him to go because as Corny always says, "how can I miss you if you never go away?".
It wasn't just NO. I'm from Little Rock. There's an old man in my building who told me that his big brother was a big time coke dealer here BITD. When Mid-South came here, JYD would look them up and after the show they'd spend the night doing lines and joking around.
Met Jim at my Mattress Store. Super nice guy. I'm 6'4 and shaking hands with him still felt like shaking hands with primate. Natural born tough guy for sure.
The "other people outside yelling" remark makes me imagine ol' Hacksaw in a Purge scenario and just going all Commando on a bunch of baddies, which would be a better/cooler movie than all the Purge movies combined
I went to see WWF in Birmingham (UK) as a kid. Before the show had even started, the crowd had the “hoooooooo” shout going around the arena in a Mexican wave. People fucking loved him. If I remember rightly, he lost to Yokozuna, but when he came out the place exploded.
@@mattpierce6398 it was true. It was so good. It started in one corner and went around going “hooooooooooooooo”. It was like a wall of Duggans coming at you
Props to Duggan for not just immediately blasting the first person he saw. Also. how pathetic do you have to be as a 20ish year old man to get restrained by a 68 year old who didn't even know you were coming. Jesus.
Stay right there and don't move! HOOOOOOOOO! Duggan to 911: there is an intruder in my house. I have him at gun point. 911: dispatch has cars on the way. Duggan: thank you. USA! USA!
Very sad to hear that someone tried to break into Hacksaw Jim Duggan's house: attempted suicides are always depressing.
Can you imagine? He’s nearly as tall as Hogan, a big ol boy, cock eyed, “ what’re ya doing in my house “ ! Holy shit!lol
Imagine Hacksaw's reaction in his prime. 2 X 4 all the way.
Suicide by tubafor is way worse than suicide by cop.
Well, it is the Season.
🤣🤣
Duggan knew Bill Watts would never speak to him again if the intruder got over on Duggan.
Gold
I wish JR could see this cause I'm sure he would chuckle.
The cowboy always called him Jim Doogan aswell 🤣
Good one😂
Lol... True.
Inmate: so what are you in for?
Robber: let me tell you the legend of Hacksaw Jim Dugan
Despite his age and health issues Jim is still a big man and a former NCAA wrestling champion, he's not a guy you want to screw with.
When was he a NCAA champion
@@chrischar9428 My apologies, I misspoke, New York State Champ in high school Unlimited Weight, wrestled in college as well as played football for SMU, though football was his primary game. Regardless, he was still legit.
He's a legit big man ! Guy got lucky he didn't get extra beating from Duggan !!
Offensive tackle for SMU
Ive shook his hand recently. His fists are the size of your head. Amazing genetic specimen. I wish him continued health!
Imagine breaking into somebody house. an hearing Hooooooo then getting clothes line through a coffee table
Whadda think you're doin here Tough Guy ?
I’ve definitely yelled “HOOOOOOOO” while walking into my own house but only in reference to my wife.
@@boscopappas234 yea but have you ever stood in the corner stomping your feet while yelling...USA ! USA!!
I refuse to believe that Duggan didn't get down into a three point stance before he ruined this guy's day.
Fuck yeah! You know he did.
He saved the guy's life he didn't ruin his day. The intruder was being chased by people trying to kill him
Glad to see all the love for Jim Duggan. He seems like an awesome guy. HOOOOOO!!
I remember hearing about a burglar breaking into Joey Janela’s house. Apparently he looked around, put $10 in a cup, and left without taking anything.
🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😂😂😂
BS. Jelly doesn't have a permanent address
You mean "broke into his car/home, left $10 in the change cup, thus quadrupling the cars value and his personal wealth"
aw that was cool of them
@kildigdotcom4599 sorry. Jelly Nutella
Could you imagine breaking into a house and some guy with a Glock and 2X4 comes charging at you screaming “Hoooooooooo”
Glock!?!?!?
@@planexshifter Its a magnum
@@rdu239 Or maybe a .44 Special...but either way, Glock ain't making nothing in either of those calibers!
Duggan didn't have the glock, the guy did and Duggan took him down and disarmed him
Desert Eagle, or 44 wheel gun.... for the gun nuts, like me. lol
imagine being a burgler, breaking into a home, then suddenly seeing a caveman with a 2x4 running towards you yelling HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Somewhere Bobby Heenan is laughing ...
😐
@kildigdotcom4599 that's a long way to tell everyone that you've never had sex and still live in your mommy's basement.
"Ham&Egger."- the ghost of Bobby Heenan to... Captain Literal.
@kildigdotcom4599 wooooooooossssshhhhhh💨💨💨💨
Jim Duggan should make a commercial to raise awareness.
Jim: *”Hoooooo!…-me invasion affects millions a year in this country.”*
I met Duggan at a local Indy show and he is a massive human being. I am 6 foot tall and 275 lbs and I look like a small child in my pic next to him. His hands are the size of frying pans. A super-nice man as well.
I've heard nothing but awesome things about him as a person

Same, and I’m not a memorabilia guy. I’d buy it just because the idea is clever. Better than a $40 signed photo in my opinion.
@@johansmallberries9874 I'm old enough to remember him signing actual 2x4's back in the 90's post WWF run. Guess Inflation is hitting us all.
WOW! And I thought Duggan's 1994 WCW Debut match against Stunning Steve Austin was a Squash match.
That match now seems actually competitive compared to what he did to the home intruder.
Duggan chased him with his 2x4 shouting HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! tough guy! He thought it was Repo Man🤣 Debra Duggan lol
1:48 God I love Jim duggan. Didn't even press charges. Such a nice man. I'd trust ol hacksaw to watch my kids. Hoooo
" Oh crap hacksaw jim duggan don't hit me with a 2x4" duggan replied coldly "nah son go 2+2 and add a 4 and meet this Magnum"
That'd be 8
Hacksaw Duggan is one of the nicest wrestlers I’ve ever met, he’s very down to earth and loved his fans.
Guy's lucky Duggan used his .44. If he'd reached for his 2x4, dude would have been in trouble.
No matter how old Hacksaw is, that's still Jim Fu$king Duggan
Now if this person broke in to Kenny Omega’s house he would just point his “McFinger-Bang” rather than using a real gun.
Had the pleasure of spending a few days with Jim and his and wife on tour in the UK couple years ago and you couldn't meet 2 nicer people
Hacksaw not subduing the guy with a 2x4 instead is kinda sad 🙁
first getting pulled over with the sheik now this.....DAMN IT, MAN! Can't you keep Kayfab for in second?
Agree Wild Wine!
Nor did he hit him with a coal miner's glove
@Ted Cox prime duggan was a monster. his hands are the size of frying pans. he'd rip 99% of pro-wrestlers in history to pieces.
Hacksaw is an enormous person. Wrong house
The big question is: how many times did he stamp his foot before he busted the guy?
Cornette's laugh always cracks me up
If Dugan stopped the intruder with a 2x4 would have been the greatest Kay- Fabe story ever!
You take a few steps tip toed in the darkness..... suddenly you hear a "HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"
🤣
This went from Hacksaw to discussing the various top babyfaces of Midsouth.
Love any Duggan stories, what a dude!
I'm shocked that Duggan is only 68 really. Feels like he's been around forever.
I'm going to have to check out some earlier Hacksaw. Seeing him in WWF and WCW as a kid, I can't even picture him as a heel!
He turned heel in WCW when he joined Team Canada.
@@quentinkaasa47 oh I kinda forgot about that. I honestly don't remember much on that faction.
I hope Duggan called him "tough guy" before holding the gun on him.
And all the neighbors chanted, USA USA USA USA !!!!!!
Police: “ Ok Mr Dugan we have the intruder in custody.
Duggan: “ HOOOOOOOOOOOO”!!!!!!!!
"Go ahead, tough guy. Make my day. Hoooooo!" - Hacksaw
I'm surprised he got the clean win and didn't brawl to the back with the intruder!
A former State wrestling champion and NFL calibre football player that beat cancer twice as well as heart surgery, Jim Duggan even at 68 isn't a man to be messed with.
Imagine being tackled by Hacksaw. He's older now, but the man is tougher than a two dollar steak. I can picture getting down in his two point stance and then charging at the sumbitch the second he stepped foot in the house.
3 point?
Two dollar steak.😆
2 dollar steak 😭😭😭😭
Thank for coming over TOUGH GUY!! HO!
Love that he’s still happily married to Debra, love that he calls her “Punchy” hahaha
Hacksaw is a legitimate tough guy wouldn't want to step to him even at his age
I live not too far from Hacksaw. Zero percent chance I'd show up without an invite.
Hacksaw put it best "Let's go TOUGH GUY!"
Imagine breaking into a house & Jim Duggan comes running at you..."HOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!"
"Hooo, tough guy"
thats all the intruder hears before getting knocked out with a 2 x 4
The Tucker Carlson interview is gold
I met him in 2006 at a meet n greet in danbury, one of the nicest, most down to earth ppl. He not a character in the ring n there arent many like that in pro wrestling
Jim & Debra Duggan figured: "We live in a safe neighborhood, so we don't have to lock our doors". 😮
Hacksaw stretched him until the cops got there, poor guy picked the wrong house 😂
Imagine breaking into his house, and this 6'4" 240 lb guy giving you a three points stands clothesline. "Now stay down, tough guy"
While a very nice person to good people, this is a man who was blinded by a cowardly attack in a bar, and upon getting his thumb almost bit off by the attacker revealed he stuck his thumb out there so he could finally know where the attacker was, and promptly knocked the coward out.
Unlocked front door, tough guy!
Jim Duggan got the gun, and said, *"HOOOOLD IT!"*
HOOOOOO, hope he’s been doing good
Hacksaw was one of the guys you always believed was a tough guy you didn't want to mess with. Easy to believe something that is true.
It disappoints(?) Me that he didn't have a 2x4 for protection.
I just watched Jim Duggan's segment from the Mid-South episode of Stories from the Territories on Vice where he knocked out a guy after he punched Jim in a bar and Duggan knocked him out with one punch.
Favorite Duggan memory, everytime WCW would try to say he was smart or mention him in college and Bobby the brain would just start busting up
Would have been amazing if everyone in the neighbourhood started chanting USA! USA!
Hacksaw is his own security alarm that burglar would have heard "Hooooooooooo!" as he got battered lol
Always been a Duggan fan.... but the jokes for this one write themselves.
Only Cornettes laugh makes me feel better while I have the stomach flu
Hacksaw is a hometown hero and wrestling legend. Glad to hear he and his wife are okay! Hooooooooooo!!! USA!👍🇺🇲

Went from a 2x4 to a 44 🤣
Well 2×4=8 which is twice the amount of 4
So 4+4=8 it's the natural mathematic Evolution
Met Jim at my Mattress Store. Super nice guy. I'm 6'4 and shaking hands with him still felt like shaking hands with primate. Natural born tough guy for sure.
I heard somebody once broke into Scott Steiner's house and washed all of his dishes.
I remember when i was a kid Hacksaw was over in late 80’s early 90’s WWF
I love when they talk about my home of Louisiana
That intruder should thank his lucky stars that Duggan had a gun and not a roll of tape. 😜
Great work by Duggan.
hacksaws almost 70 years old and i still wouldnt mess with him...
Hacksaw Jim Duggan is the best
I mean he knew how to get himself over. Cant say that for most of today's wrestlers.
@@Chaz4543I Absolutely Agree
All I can think of is the wild banker from ballad of buster skruggs. That is how Hacksaw must've went after him.
The "other people outside yelling" remark makes me imagine ol' Hacksaw in a Purge scenario and just going all Commando on a bunch of baddies, which would be a better/cooler movie than all the Purge movies combined
Of ALL the homes to enter, he ENTERS the "Hacksaw"s???? talk about bad luck!!!
"Hey Hooo" - Jim Duggan
...HACKSAW was the GREATEST 100%!!!!💪🇺🇲 such a great Human he is and always will be 💯
He was also on Fox News talking to Tucker about it.
That was my first heartbreaking moment in wrestling. My first hero, Wrestling 2, turned heel, and Cheated to win the North American Championship.
Duggan: " What's the best way to deal with home invaders? "
Arn: " Hear me out, Jim... "
Jim Duggan,You the man!!!HOOO🕐🇺🇲🇺🇲

Wrong House to mess with .... Duggan doesn't lock his door because he doesn't have to!
Hell yeah man! Hacksaw stands for America! HOOOOOOOOOO!!!💪🏻🇺🇸
Duggan's has a Good Heart.
Intruder: Hello? Hacksaw: I'm hoooooooooooooooommmmmme tough guy👍
Jim has that one laugh that is very Tickle Me Elmo-esque
He used to live in Titusville Florida. He's a very nice man.
The 2x4 was excellent viral marketing back in the day
I always liked when Hacksaw would say " I Like Tough Guys"
Maybe a lot was because he was from glens falls, but i absolutely loved hacksaw as a character when I was a kid. Hes a hell of a nice guy too.
Props to Duggan for not just immediately blasting the first person he saw. Also. how pathetic do you have to be as a 20ish year old man to get restrained by a 68 year old who didn't even know you were coming. Jesus.
I didn’t know Hacksaw live in South Carolina. I live 20 minutes from Kershaw county
They've got this story backwards. The guy was running for his life and suddenly he has Hacksaw Duggan with a 44 magnum protecting him.
Duggan Is only 68?!
*Hooooo!! USA!*
"Butters" Could Bring a "KissingCompany" Back to NoLa!😜
Stay right there and don't move! HOOOOOOOOO!
Duggan to 911: there is an intruder in my house. I have him at gun point.
911: dispatch has cars on the way.
Duggan: thank you. USA! USA!
