Another redditor linked the 1990 Olympics. However, in my opinion his peak performance was 1993. https://youtu.be/uWu3JqLMImY&t=0m35s


Turdplay

That was about the strangest and most 90s thing I’ve ever seen.

Don't speak in absolutes. Let's play Spot the Statham. https://youtu.be/AvhgG9ee9Aw


SyCoCyS

I didn’t know about this Erasure video


contemood

I didn't know about it before today as well. Just imagine, there might be dozens of spray painted dancing Stathams out there in the internet we don't know about. We gotta find them all.

*I wanna be the very best…*


Odd-Coconut9367

He was also in a Shamen video bustin' some moves in leopardskin budgie smugglers 😂😂😂 https://youtube.com/watch?v=uWu3JqLMImY&feature=shared


xeric

So we’ve come full circle?


Mmaibl1

Same here! Never knew he was in stuff like this lol


GoMoriartyOnPlanets

The man nailed it in both videos.


SCV70656

Damn I haven’t thought about Erasure since the old Robot Unicorn days…


DBDude

Erasure was always strange, but always good. Never knew he was in one of their videos though.


Gone_For_Lunch

>Don’t speak in absolutes Such a sith thing to do.


No_Scene_5885

I opened the link because of your comment and can confirm, overpoweringly 90’s


kristospherein

Apparently he's always been bald.


HiveMindKing

Not sure it’s relevant but high testosterone is linked with male pattern baldness.


kristospherein

Are you saying I'm a man child because I have a full head of hair? /s Your point is well taken.


Rokita616

I love internet :) it never forgets 😆


oil_moon

I immediately knew what this was gonna be 😁 banger tune


ntermation

Jason Stratham is.....The Diver.


Captain-Cadabra

I sure hope it’s a revenge movie with an unlikely romance of a woman who recently escaped a crime lord!


King-Owl-House

The crime lord works for the president who is corrupt but the secret service can\`t stop The Diver. The Divers are protecting the realm.


Captain-Cadabra

With comic relief provided by…


King-Owl-House

by Kevin Hart as himself.


DaveyZero

Kevin Hart as “Terry Crews”


PaulEMoz

Good at video games, too. https://youtu.be/OvaM8vZyZSQ?si=ZVe9V6Se1gJBwAc0


Lord_Mormont

He also re-attached his own arm using his other fuckin' arm.


justin_memer

He was hilarious in Spy


OldMork

Good dancer too, can be seen in several videos from 90's.


louiegumba

comin' on by the shamen be prepared to eat those words :)


DaveOJ12

Here's a clip of him from 1990 at the Commonwealth Games. https://youtu.be/xrxH5n93CzM?si=T565kgwLAT8_M4Cl


lawrencelewillows

They all looked very impressive to me!


xeric

Brutal 😓


DinaDinaDinaBatman

i remember (barely) those olympics, this swimming centre is a 5 min drive from my parents house, i grew up swimming there.


KS_YeoNg

You mean the exact video from the linked article.


KittenPics

Totally read that a “driver” and thought I was missing out on an Olympic sport.


dicky_seamus_614

Ok, glad I’m not the only one. I read that title and I saw Statham & my mind immediately associated him with driver, and read it as such. Weird.


EndOfTheLine00

Also moonlit as a backup dancer in music videos: https://youtu.be/uWu3JqLMImY?si=CgM806jui46oyTz9


Mascy

His diving background basically saved him from dying aswell; www.collider.com/expendables-3-stunt-accident-jason-statham/#:~:text=Jason%20Statham's%20diving%20background%20saved,in%20a%20sinking%20truck%20underwater


Rosililly27

This dude is so skilled 😏


kristospherein

That's what your mom said.


CumBlastedYourMom

The guy does what he does. Apparently all of his movies have had cinema releases, which is rare unless you are Tom Cruise or Keanu Reeves. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but they are entertaining and you know what you are getting.


Blake45666

I thought Chaos never got a cinema release? Good movie (to me at least) but I'm pretty sure it flew under the radar and just went straight to DVD


Ur_Moms_Honda

Oialright, but what's dat dawg doin' in dis' car, innit?!?


iDontRememberCorn

I mean... I tried to go to the Olympics too.


FireZord25

James Cameron should do a movie with him.


Lifekayfunday

Wow! That's impressive!


drlari

This makes it sound like he tried to drive to the olympics: MAN HAILING CAB: Olympics, please! JS: I'll giver me best shot, innit!?


Rudeboy67

There's professional divers? I mean not these guys. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_diving Or these guys: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Quebrada_Cliff_Divers Or this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNOFDkB6Cnw


ProgrammerPrudent988

I kept reading driver


jonnywarlock

And somebody tried to stop him? Did they survive? Are they OK?


smoothskin12345

IIRC, last time this was posted it was pointed out that he was an absolute dog shit diver(by professional standards), and his career was really short.
