    Danny was the reason I got sober in '96... He was my sponsor and mentor. He would pick me up from the rehab and take me to many
    meetings all over Hollywood and the SFV, with his wife and sister! Great, great man! Thanks for everything, Danny!!!

    Met him once through a friend (Johnny) who runs a Comic-Con in Texas. Danny was the most down to earth and genuinely friendly celebrity I've ever encountered. Everyone had questions or wanted to talk to him about his career, and all he wanted to do was ask people about their lives, or how they were doing. He genuinely gave a shit about what they said, he listened.
    Ended up going to dinner with "us" (with Johnny ofc, bc he was the host). Celebrity or not, he's a good man and it's not an act; this video does an excellent job of showing that.

      One of the many things I have heard about Danny Trejo is that he loves to help people!!
      No matter his movie status! He is well respected in the Mexican world!!!

    My aunt ran away from home at 16 and never came back. I missed her my whole life.
    She went to California, got into trouble and became an alcoholic.
    Fifty years later I got a call from the LA County Coroner asking if she was my aunt. They notified me that she was dead.
    I found out that Danny Trejo was her AA sponsor and mentor from friends of hers that I spoke to after she died.
    She gave her life to the Lord and now resides in heaven.
    Thank you to Danny Trejo and all the other Christians that came along side of her. I will see her again in heaven.

    Danny Trejo's story is extremely relatable to me, as a recovering addict who also spent years on the wrong side of the law and eventually ended up in prison before finally straightening my life up. The fact is that our mistakes and trials CAN be turned to a positive, and those experiences can be used to help others in similar situations. Honestly I don't regret any of it, despite all of the tremendous pain I've caused and endured, but it has made me into the man I am today -- with drive, ambition, character, integrity, and wisdom. It's never too late to change your life -- just takes hard work and one step at a time.

      Right? I've had a big ol' soft spot in my heart for him since 1985, but it was years later that I learned his first film experience was in 1983 where he voiced the character of Lor Sam Pau in the English dub version of Project A (a film written, directed, and stared in by Jackie Chan, and is also known as Jackie Chan's Project A), which I had watched with my father as a kid. I just didn't learn until years after the fact that Danny Trejo was the voice behind Lor Sam Pau for the English dub because I was old enough to recognize his voice after having watched the film again in the early 90s, and had one of those "Hey! That's______!" moments...lol

    Great Video! The first time Danny Trejo got on my radar was in an episode of NCIS: Los Angeles as Tuhon. Learned a bit about him and he most certainly has an iconic story to share with the world! One thing that "Tuhon" said in the episode was "If it isn't a first edition it isn't worth reading", that stuck with me to this day I go for the first editions (when possible). The first series I had already read and tracked down were the first editions of the Chronicles of Dune by Frank Herbert, the first four books of the series (and including an encyclopedia that depicts the long chronology of Dune). Thank you Mr. Trejo, thank you.

    At 6:24 Danny says, "A couple of drops off his cotton". That means the cotton ball "Uncle Gilbert" used to strain his cooked heroin still had a few drops of heroin in it. Gilbert then turned Danny on to it. This videos says, "Contin". People are going to confuse "Cotton" with "Contin". Oxycontin was not invented until 1996. I don't want that to throw people off.
