the movie star was simply stephen siegel, who runs a martial arts gym in the midwestern suburbs of the usa, he would be seen as a predator who would be in one of mcdojo life mcdojo news videos rob because stephen Siegel is an absolute monster who has done nothing his entire career except put himself in positions to engage in predatory behavior.

I posted a video last year called The Problem with Steven Seagal and I was surprised to see a lot of people defending Siegel saying that I did my research wrong or I've been listening to too many rumors so I decided to research Mr. Seagal and I was surprised because Steven Segal is worse than I could imagine. What I saw was that Steven Seagal has four roles that he plays. and the common thread between the four of them, besides the constant lying, is that each of them allowed Steven Siegel to engage in very abusive behavior that began the moment Siegel took on his first role as sensei, so that's where we'll start .

sketchy things about steven seagal that we all ignored...

He is a legit aikido master, like a 100 percent legit aikido master according to Siegel's website. steven frederick siegel was born in lansing michigan on april 10, 1952. his humble childhood was underscored by a fascination with martial arts and blues. siegel mastered martial arts at an early age he became a seventh degree black belt and aikido master The thing is, when Siegel first came on the scene, he told people that he was from Brooklyn, New York, for some reason, I guess, to make him seem like the tough guy he played. In his first films, this all stopped when Siegel's mother told the truth that the family moved to Fullerton, California, when Siegel was five years old.

In reality, he was frail due to asthma while living in Michigan, but he thrived after moving to Orange County. She said that Siegel was into rock music and not blues, as she later claimed, he worked with Japanese men in Garden Grove and that was how he began his journey in martial arts. I talked more about this in my previous video. The problem with Steven Seagal, so I'm not going. To repeat the material from that video, but this is where

things

get interesting during Siegel's role as sensei. Oh, and if you're wondering why I keep saying Steven's last name is Siegel, it's because that's the correct pronunciation of his name.
sketchy things about steven seagal that we all ignored
Steven saw the Chagall exhibit in a museum and liked the sound of the word, so he changed the pronunciation of his last name, so after studying Okinawa and Karate in California, Segal was convinced to go to Japan around age 19. . Things didn't work out and he returned to California. where he would eventually meet miyako fujitani, who was teaching aikido in california at the time. Now I should mention that Segal at one point said that he studied with the founder of aikido, Morihei Ueshiba, who had already passed away before Seagal arrived in Japan. Fans like to deny that Stephen ever made that claim, but you can read it for yourself in some of Segal's early interviews in Black Belt magazine from 1988 and 1990.
In 1974, Seagal returned to Japan with his aikido instructor. Miyako Fujitani did not defend this move in my last video, but I have since learned that Robert Strickland, who worked as a CIA consultant in Japan, and Robert Strickland says that Steven Seagal married Miyako to avoid mandatory military service, He believed that marrying a Japanese citizen and moving to Japan would make him less likely to be deported and sent back to the US. I thought this guy was a patriot. Now seagull fans love to point out that Steven was the first Westerner to open a dojo in Japan, but that's not true when his father-in-law retired from teaching.
Seagal took over teaching duties, but the dojo was owned by his mother-in-law and managed by his wife. miyako went on to say that steven seagal only got his black belt because the judge in charge of his grading fell asleep during his presentation he was so embarrassed that when he woke up he awarded seagal his black belt the stories about segal fighting the yakuza and driving out the dojo people are fake too miyako said seagal just chased a few drunks out of school seagal likes it Tell people how the dojo attracted the attention of the CIA and other high ranking military members in Japan and many of them they became students of Segal.
Now, if you listen carefully to the height of the cigar, it is because Segal was such an accomplished aikido practitioner. but the reality is these were Americans, they were obviously joining a dojo where another American was open to teaching English to Americans. If you have never been to Japan, to this day there are some companies that do not allow Americans to speak and read Japanese. And I personally experienced this in Sasebo when I was in the Navy, but keep this part in your memory banks about Segal teaching people like Robert Strickland, who was actually a CIA consultant, and other high-ranking military personnel, because this will come back to emerge later.
Because? Because Steven Seagal is an absolute monster, but Seagal's role as sensei would eventually change from Japan to America anyway. Steven told his wife that he wanted to return to the US to get rich in Hollywood or open restaurants. Miyako believed in Segal's dream. Then she says that she spent years saving money and living on the bare minimum in order to finance Seagal's dreams. Sagar returned to the US where he opened his first dojo in Taos, New Mexico, and thanked his wife Miyako by marrying his second wife, actress Adrian. Larussa while he was still married to Miyako, who was still in Japan raising their children, so while Seagal was busy cheating on his first wife with his new wife, the dojo in New Mexico was struggling financially, Seagal was known to be leaving in These trips where he had returned with cash and nothing was known about his mysterious financial backers, but Seagal liked to say that he was up carrying out hits for the mafia.
When Larussa filed for an annulment, he said he was basically paying Sagal to stay away from her, but he didn't. I want to say something else because I was afraid of Segal's scary friends. Well, at this point Seagal is starting to transition into his next role, his biggest role, that of movie star, so while Seagal struggles to keep his dojo open and is married to two women in two . different continents he finally decides to fulfill his promise to get rich in hollywood seagal meets kelly lebrock's manager who tells him that if he wants to break into hollywood he needs to be seen with famous people seagal like anyone else who has seen kelly lebrock in anything from the 80s he was completely in love with her, don't hate me because I'm beautiful, so he makes a direct move and goes to Japan to meet her shortly after that meeting with his manager, so Seagal is back. in Japan, where his wife and his children live, while his other wife is back in the US and going to meet Kelly Lebrock so she can break into Hollywood.
Well, he managed to meet her and two weeks after meeting her they were lovers and a year later. They were parents, so Seagal at one point had two wives on separate continents while he courted his third wife and why? Because Steven Seagal is an absolute monster, this guy is horribly worse than he could imagine, but let's get back to our story, so at this point. the taos dojo completely failed, segal calls one of his shady friends to steal kelly lebrock's porsche so he can use the insurance money to fund his dojo, so remember what kelly's manager told seagal, if you want get to hollywood, you must be. seen with famous people being married to kelly lebrock wasn't enough seagal had to take a page from bruce lee's playbook and become sensei to the stars and that's exactly what he did in 1987 he opened a dojo in los angeles where he taught the bruce lee's ex student james coburn sean connery broke his wrist and the person responsible for launching the cigar race michael ovitz michael ovitz arranged a segal meeting with warner brother executives where he would demonstrate aikido mark mikita they brought in a karate instructor to serve as Segal's uke during At the end of the demonstration, Warner Brothers executives were amazed that they had never seen anything like what Segal was doing and one said he couldn't believe the ease with which he Seagal could grab someone and throw them across the room with very little effort. is that it was all a setup mark makita said that the only way seagal's techniques would work is if he allowed himself to be released to the demo, but after that demo the warner brothers lost 50,000 on a screen test for seagal and everything was a complete disaster segal had no charisma and his whispery voice was terrible in the movie that's when ovitz stepped in like i said michael ovitz launched segal's film career ovitz was the casting agent for lee the gun and when they called him for lethal weapon 2 agreed not to accept a raise on the sequel if Seagal was hired to make a movie.
There are now questions about whether the mob really bribed Ovitz to vouch for Seagal and this is something that will come up during Segal's time as a movie star. Until he started making direct-to-video movies, at least in 1990, Seagal was at the peak of his fame. At that time, he had done

things

above the law, hard to kill, marked for death and seeking justice, which made him a true action hero in this era. He started his own production company with Julius Nasso. Now this marks an interesting turn in Segal's career. He had already had a history of implying that he had some kind of connection to the mafia.
Well, this guy Julius Nassau started a pharmaceutical company when he was in college. in the '70s where he sold health supplements, but what I heard is that he sold drugs to sailors and also Julius Nassel's uncle who had the same name Julius Nasso in a specific company that was in some trouble involving Anthony Salerno, the original. Fat Tony basically these guys were connected to the Gambino crime family. It turns out that Nassau loaned Seagal half a million dollars in Gambino family money to make a four-picture deal after forming his production company. Segal was no longer under contract with the Warner Brothers who they paid. his production company or sometimes his money went directly to Julius Nassau.
Additionally, members of the Gambino family or their relatives began to appear in Segal's films. Steven Seagal is known for punching stuntmen and hurting people on set, but if you look at some of his early movies there are people in some fight scenes who never get punched and it turns out those guys were all family associates. He and Gambino were given a cut of every movie they made, money was coming in, so when you hear people like Sammy the Grave Bull telling stories about how Segal was crying to the FBI about how the mafia was twisting him steven seagal all those movies karate remember things he's his pants i think twice well now you know why the gambino family went after their money after seagal decided he didn't want to make any more movies and nassau sent them straight to smoke while he worked on the exit wounds , now in addition to dealing with the mafia, Seagal began to lose all those friends he had made.
When he was Sensei to the Stars, Seagal managed to approach all kinds of special forces operators, FBI and CIA agents along with consultants for the sole purpose of taking his stories and telling them as if they had happened to him. Seagal tried to tell a story about training with the Green Berets to a group of his students at a seminar. Everything was going well until a guy who had been a former Green Beret spoke up and said hey brother, I told you that story another time when Seagal was looking for treasure on the coast of barbados with gary goldman and he boasted about his time when he had been a Navy Seal now gary goldman was a former mercenary who endorsed seagal in the press because they were working on a movie together but after they had a fight , goldman was candid about all that stuff and said that Seagal likes to approach the operators to steal their stories and make them part of his own personal narrative, but anyway, after Segal finished bragging about his time as a seal while they were looking for treasure, well he Seagal almost drowned in still waters and completely panicked and Goldman and the other people there had to push him back to the boat, so he was one of those Navy Seals that don't swim.
I also remember Segal's friend from Japan, Robert Strickland, Seagal asked if Strickland could put it on. he attacked gary goldman after he told thepress that Seagal was lying about his past. Seagal also called his friend Robert Strickland after a GQ article appeared exposing him and his lies. Seagal wanted Strickland to have someone to help him expose the article's writer Alan Rickman. as gay even though rickman was not gay now in fact seagal did an interview on the arsenio hall show with the sole purpose of criticizing and shaming alan rickman every time seagal is called out he likes to show himself going on tv to try to humiliate that person is kind of like what Seagal tried to do in those videos he made with Jesse at camp and if you want to hear the details about the rude talk that happened in that video let me know in the comments and I'll have to make another video because this one is going to be very long, there are a lot of things because Steven Seagal is a monster, but anyway Seagal kept trying to get his former CIA consultant friend Robert Strickland to do his dirty work every chance he got. exposed by someone, well, until he finally fell out with Robert Strickland, so at that time Seagal was hanging around David Letterman's late-night talk shows. arsenio hall and the other guys, when he was at the peak of his career making movies , Seagal was asked about being a CIA consultant, did he work with the CIA or not?
Did I make it up? People just say that to be funny. Or did you actually have a job at a central intelligence agency? Have you ever lived a dangerous life that might be like the life you live when you're in the CIA and he shared a story about something that happened? Well, he told a story that I heard from Robert Strickland and Robert Strickland was watching the interview. strickland sued seagal and seagal is the kind of person who can tell you that he told strickland to back off because he has powerful friends. Robert Strickland was later contacted by a friend and told that he should really back off because Seagal had some powerful people who were very invested in his public image and now we know it was the Gambino crime family, it's that whole thing about Steven Seagal being literally hard to kill in real life, as he portrayed in his Well, all of that was organized by the mafia because they were actually invested in the success of this guy's movies and Segal went along with it all because, well, Steven Seagal He's an absolute monster, well you're about to become a cop. officer oh yeah that's true but I don't care I don't care about the law obviously a person who shows signs of being a pathological liar who supposedly makes a deal with a mafia to become a movie star gets little respect by the law, but the film career of a segal. was relegated to direct-to-video films, he decided to reinvent himself as a dog, bounty hunter knock-off, with his steven seagal law man reality series and this began seagal's next role as the lawman, according to seagal, there was actually He has been a cop for 20 years while also making movies, but the truth is that other than playing a cop in his movies, Steven Seagal actually has no training as a police officer, he claims to have received some training at the LAPD academy, but There are no records in the city of Los Angeles to substantiate that claim, the truth is that while filming one of his movies, Seagal began training local police officers in martial arts.
He now he's a cop and he's teaching them how to do karate and all those stupid moves and whatever at the time, mafia guys. They were making fun of him, which leads me to believe that it was while filming Under Siege where Robert Stand Nickels, a Gambino family associate, worked closely with Seagal, Joseph John, a retired Navy captain who helped secure the use of the uss missouri for the movie depicting seagal and Nichols as friends now I have no idea what that meant but I guess Nichols didn't like Segal spending so much time with the local authorities.
Still, Seagal continued to teach deputies from the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Department by visiting him a few days a year. and after about a decade, he was simply admitted to the department as a deputy sheriff. Seagal wasn't actually doing any kind of police work other than voluntary trips. He had absolutely no training. He had not worked for 40 years as a police officer. work as he claimed nor had he done 20 years of police work as he claimed on his reality TV show steven seagal trained as a police officer the same day he passed the diving motivator to go to buds to do seal training well, steven seagal with absolutely zero training as a peace officer drove a tank through a guy's fence killing his dog to help sheriff joe arpaio and the maricopa county sheriff's department arrested a guy for chicken fighting even though the The only evidence that the guy was fighting chickens was the fact that he owned just over a hundred chickens and had been issued a citation for being at a chicken fighting event a year earlier.
Seagal was supposedly on loan to Sheriff Joe of the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Department, but the thing is, Seagal was not a Jefferson officer. parish at the time he was just a normal civilian driving a tank through this guy's house with the SWAT team to humiliate this guy who later had all charges dropped and it was just so he could show something on his reality show , so the question Well, why was Segal no longer a Jefferson Parish officer after I told you how he was deputy? Well, Seagal was no longer a deputy sheriff because Steven Seagal is an absolute monster.
Watch while Seagal was filming his dog, the bounty hunter's knock-off reality show. He took out an ad for an executive assistant. Miss Caden Nguyen was hired for the job and when she arrived in Louisiana, Segall told her that one of her tasks would be to perform a massage for him if she did not know how to perform one. The massage Seagal was talking about, well, he would teach her by giving her a massage. I am an expert in shiatsu massage, please leave me by your side, you know, you told me that and look next thing you know, they are grabbing her tits.
Well, at this point things get very dark and I can't really go into all the details of the legend incident here on YouTube. I'm just going to say that according to Kaiden, she was assaulted three times in a five-day period. She said that she was held at Seagal's house for at least a week and that when she finally managed to escape from it, Segal chased her with a gun that had a flashlight attached. Kaiden also alleged that Seagal kept two young Russian girls on his staff who were available for any additional services besides massages at all times of the day.
Nguyen filed a civil suit against Steven Seagal but his suit was settled out of court now I won't judge. his decision to file a civil lawsuit versus going to the police, that's his choice for Seagal, although this was the end of his career as a police officer, Jefferson Parish was going to launch an internal affairs investigation immediately after the outcome of the lawsuit and since reaching an out-of-court settlement was not an admission of guilt or innocence, the investigation was carried out. I'm going to go ahead and guess that Seagal could have faced criminal charges for drug trafficking, while a uniformed deputy Seagal immediately resigned from his position prior to the investigation and left the state of Louisiana as if Seagal wasn't already sounding like an absolute monster .
Well, it turns out that this wasn't even the first time he allegedly tried something like what happened with Kaden Nguyen in 2004. Steven Seagal attended Ray Charles' funeral and during the funeral Seagal approached Ray Charles' granddaughter, Blair Robinson, to work as his executive assistant who was assisted by his father. the interview with her and they hired her for the job, good job, when Blair flew to the cigar office in Memphis, on the first day of work she was informed that one of her responsibilities would be to give Seagal a massage every day if she didn't do it .
She didn't know how to perform the type of massage he wanted, he would teach her by giving her a massage. Blair left immediately and got on the first flight she could get to Los Angeles and other people weren't so lucky when Seagal was filming. Deadly Ground about 10 years earlier invited an 18 year old extra to a farewell party after finishing that day of filming when she arrived at the party, well it turns out she was the only person there and when she arrived at the party she was was virgin and when she left well she wasn't and according to her what supposedly happened was not consensual so I'll let you figure it out and if you haven't done it right I'll just say that what supposedly happened happened because steven seagal is an absolute monster so after From being the sensei to the stars who had three wives, the movie star backed by the mafia and the ex-cop facing too many me-too accusations to count according to the Washington Post, the only thing left to do Steven Seagal is to seek enlightenment because If there is anyone who can make people look the other way when they are accused of multiple sexual crimes and receiving money from shady people, it is a religious leader who I just met with the Dalai Lama and he in his wisdom. decided to make me a deity in 1997, steven seagal was recognized as a reincarnation of chun drag dorje, a 17th century buddhist llama, by pinoy tibetan leader rimpoche, while pandora rimpoche may have recognized seagal as a toku. hollywood recognized that something fishy was going on and what Defined as a substantial donation either way, Segal took the honor and ran with it and makes sure to remind people that he was recognized as a toku whenever he can.
Yes, I'm a Llama in 1999. Seagal wanted the world to know about his high spiritual achievement by participating in the compassion in martial arts conference. Seagal was known to come out dressed in Tibetan monk robes, announce to everyone that he was a reincarnated llama, and then give an hour-long dharma talk on compassion as a spiritual discipline. At the end of the talk, Seagal opened up the world. He addressed questions from the audience and some of these auditoriums were known to hold thousands of people at a talk attended by the Buddhist professor and meditation master. An audience member asked Douglas Gentile Segal if he always dresses in full Tibetan monk garb.
Seagal's response was to roll his eyes and then he said the following question that he has been asked several times about how he is able to reconcile his spiritual beliefs about compassion and non-violence with the violence he shows in his action movies and his response was to approach every shot with a pure heart and I hope it's visible to the audience, whatever that means, well, at this point Gentil actually pressed Seagal on this point after Seagal said something about movies that are really about about good versus evil and in the end it's about telling a story about good winning. about evil, but look, the thing is that in Buddhism this type of dualistic thinking reinforces this type of thinking that does not lead to a true nature seen, which is why Gentil pressed Segal on his response.
It is not in line with Buddha's teachings. Well, Segal's response to the Gentiles. The question was well, look, I don't want to talk over the people in the audience because we understood that this was clearly a lie and the truth is that Seagal had no idea what he was talking about on stage, just like Seagal says lines in His movies. It was just another opportunity for Segal to show off on stage and pretend to be an enlightened Buddhist monk the moment someone made him go off script. Well, the whole façade he was trying to present fell apart.
Hi Steven, your ex-wife called, "can you." If you don't bring the kids this weekend, you tell her she doesn't understand them, so what does any of this have to do with Steven Seagal and his martial arts accomplishments? Because, to some people, none of this diminishes him as a martial artist in his eyes. and my question is, I mean, why wouldn't it be the case that if someone from my teacher's school had all these accusations, he would be expelled from the school and stripped of his rank? I guess the idea of ​​wu da or martial arts morality doesn't exist. in some Japanese martial arts circles and this is strange when an art like aikido is supposed to have a spiritual aspect, but I mean, maybe it doesn't matter what you do as long as you keep falling and talking like a happy hippie.
My question is, I mean, how do you know what the skill level of the cigar is? His ex-wife said the judge fell asleep during Segal's black belt test and it appears it may have been awarded as an attempt to save face for Seagal's stories about fighting the yakuza. and Japan were fake the aikido demonstration that launched his film career was all fakethe stuntmen getting hit with cigarettes in their movies was no different than someone getting hurt by taking hits in professional wrestling the fights are fake the injuries are real I'm just I'm going to say this about all the internal martial arts people I know Personally, some of them have fought and won in combat sports.
I've never heard any of them say "wow, look at Steven Seagal's moves, he has great internal mechanics, so me." I'm going to point out my first video on aikido, the problem with aikido and say that I understand that aikido requires the same internal mechanics that make taiji twin work and I've never heard anyone say that Steven Seagal has it. So like everything else he pretends to be to me, he's also the big pretender when it comes to martial arts and I know some people will feel that way about what I just said and I want to say, look, this is only shared by me. .
My opinion based on the things I have observed about Steven Seagal, the truth is that if Steven Seagal is completely innocent of all these accusations, none of this mafia stuff is true and his aikido is completely legitimate, how is that going to change your life? That makes you better as a martial artist and I mean, if you're mad at me for making an exposed Steven Seagal video again, how are you mad at me? It will make you better. I mean, it's just my opinion that Steven Seagal is an absolute monster. and the only thing I feel like I can learn from him is how not to be a bad person, but sometimes look, I tried to defend Seagal like I did in this video where I investigate if he lied about fighting Bruce Lee. and he actually mentioned those things in the jesse in camp video, so I may have to post an update to this video very soon because I know a lot more details than when I first did that video a year ago and also, hey, Yes If you want to know something that will really make you improve, then you should keep training.
Remember to breathe and come yell at me in the next video.
