I actually saw one of his appearances on America's Toughest Bouncer and let me tell you, it was epic. One of the challenges was a kind of "bouncer obstacle course," the final objective of which was to smash through a locked door and ring a bell mounted on the opposite wall. Guys would kick down the door, shoulder through it, whatever, sometimes knocking themselves silly and having to take a few seconds to recover in order to find the bell and ring it.
Then it was Mr. T's turn. He comes running down the aisle toward the door, doesn't slow down one bit, and smashes right through like it's not even there. A camera on the opposite side of the door caught it perfectly: The door practically exploding as this massive, mohawked black dude crashes into the room, wood splinters flying everywhere, it was like a scene straight out of the goddamn A-Team. He immediately grabs the cord attached to the bell and I shit you not, proceeds to rip it right off the friggin' wall. At that moment I was honestly terrified that he would kill me just by looking at me through the television.
Epic, I tell ya.
So, yeah. Happy birthday T.
