Chuck Norris Facts
After creating the website "4Q.cc" and "thetruthaboutchuck.com" both online Chuck Norris Facts generators, the sites became and internet phenomena, and quickly became a viral internet meme. This, however, attracted a lawsuit by Norris, who sued for misappropriated and exploited Norris' name and likeness without authorization for his own commercial profit. Since then, Spector has released both “The Truth About Chuck Norris: 400 Facts About the World’s Greatest Human” and "The Truth About Chuck Norris" to significant commercial success. It includes satirical "facts" as "Chuck Norris's tears cure cancer, too bad he has never cried" and "Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits," and "Chuck Norris can charge a cell phone by rubbing it against his beard." Chuck Norris facts have spread around the world, leading not only to translated versions, but also spawning localized versions mentioning country-specific advertisements and other Internet phenomena. Allusions are also sometimes made to his use of roundhouse kicks to perform seemingly any task, his large amount of body hair with specific regard to his beard, and his role in the action television series Walker, Texas Ranger.
