Random Twofer! David Takes On: The Coolest Guy You've Never Heard Of

Consider the following this week's winner of the coveted "I Think I Just Crapped My Pants A Little" Award.

I just finished reading this: The Iron Circle.
(Not to be confused with Circle of Iron, a David Carradine movie from the 70's.)

This man is Dominiquie Vandenberg:

He's easily the most certifiable badass to ever walk the earth. Eat your heart out, Chuck Norris. Actually, don't. Just wait for Dom to show up and do it himself. You'd probably only muck it up.

Anywho, let's compare Mr. Vandenberg to our handy "David Takes On" Checklist O' Badassery:

- Consummate Martial Artist √
- Member of the French Foreign Legion's Second Parachute Regiment √
- Killed a Thai pimp in cold blood √
- Has had sex with almost every woman alive √
- Fought in illegal bloodsport tournaments in Burma √
- Beat the shit out of four Turkish teenagers who knocked over an old man on a train and laughed about it √
- Bouncer √
- Played Russian Roulette (twice in a row) and lived to talk about it √
- Loves his mother √

Yep. Perfect score.

Anyways, this book was great. A fairly short read, it took me a day to finish, but it was gripping and fun all the way through. A real page-turner, for my money. This guy has had more crazy adventures than you can imagine, and he is ever so kind to write it all down for us. Check this book out. Or else. He'll come to your house and eat your face. No joke.

Consider yourself taken on, Coolest Guy Ever.
