Before each filming of Walker: Texas Ranger, Chuck Norris is injected with five times the lethal dose of elephant tranquilzer. This is, of course, to limit his strength and mobility, in an attempt to lower the fatality rate of the actors he fights.

A Handicap parking sign does not signify that this spot is for handicapped people. It is actually in fact a warning, that the spot belongs to Chuck Norris and that you will be handicapped if you park there.

It's a ripoff of the Bill Bratsky snl sketch. They just replace the name so the character is "known, but weird". The sentiment is the same. Absurd statements. thats it.

4- Filming on location for Walker: Texas Ranger, Chuck Norris brought a
stillborn baby lamb back to life by giving it a prolonged beard rub.
Shortly after the farm animal sprang back to life and a crowd had gathered,
Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked the animal, breaking its neck, to remind the
crew once more that Chuck giveth, and the good Chuck, he taketh away

24- When Chuck Norris sends in his taxes, he sends blank forms and includes
only a picture of himself, crouched and ready to attack. Chuck Norris has
not had to pay taxes ever.

I think the facts would be funny if said about most ppl, as they are well placed jokes. Chuck Norris is a good target because he is pretty well known and a terrible actor with a terrible CV. Everyone knows him and the randomness factor of it being Chuck Norris makes this funny. I think they are overdone now but the first time I ran across one of the fact dealies I thought it was funny.
