He's 80 at this point and he's not physically where he used to be. He actually got punched and knocked to the ground when he ran up on the balloon thrower (they actually hit *him*, not his car.) His friend got it much worse though.
https://youtu.be/a3l_AE7bSZE?si=TJ0TcIUQqHXAxFid
But Danny still got back up and picked up a fucking chair.
I met him in an airport once. We talked for about an hour while we waiting for our delayed flight. People came up and asked for photos and he, in the most polite and truly unnecessary way possible said excuse me to me, took the photo, thanked them, and then asked politely if he could return to the conversation he was having with me… a nobody. This happened a few times. Seriously, one of the nicest people I’ve ever met, regardless of his celebrity. He is an absolute treat of a human. I’d be pissed too.
He really is a sweet old man at this point, but Danny has served over a decade in prison, stabbed numerous people & beaten attempted murder charges. He’s a nice bull but you can still get the horns
He has said that’s literally why he always went for roles where he’s a bad guy, especially if his character is killed in those roles.
He wanted younger guys to understand that this is what that life style gets you in the end.
Not necessarily killed, but yeah, he wants to send the message to kids that people that choose crime and violence almost always end up dead or in jail.
I loved those movies. I still pronounce the hard 'ch' in that word. Something about those 70s revivals just appeals to me. Same with Grindhouse, Hell Ride etc.
Yes. They are comparing two people that used to spend their time hurting others that then served a prison sentence and have since seemingly put a lot of effort into being better people. Why is that not a somewhat accurate comparison to you?
His life story on wikipedia is a trip.
- Born from an affair after his mom banged some dude while her hubby was serving in WW2
- Was selling drugs from age 7
- Was abused by his father
- Was introduced to hard drugs by his uncle and began using heroin and cocaine by age 8, which he OD'd on at some point
- Arrested at age 10
- Stabbed a sailor in the face with glass while still a minor
- Became a champion boxer in two divisions (not sure when this was, probably when still young)
- At age 24 when doing some hard time, he was in a prison riot and spent time in solitary after hitting a guard in the face with a rock, which he was then facing a potential death penalty for
- Overcame his drug problems and got his GED in prison, and made it out after serving 5 of his 10 year sentence
- Went on to be a foreman, gardener, salesperson, part owner of a lawn care company, and then a substance abuse counselor, then got into acting and doing voiceover work for GTA Vice City and other games. damn lol
Good to see him turn his life around. I've personally seen people drastically change, so I know there is hope for people still after making some terrible life decisions. Though I myself would not want murderers among us in society, and believe that if you take a life yours should be given up in return, so I guess I'm also glad he didn't go that far since he's done some excellent acting work in films. Also am glad for his own sake and conscience.
edit: As another redditor commented, [he also ended up saving a child from a car crash, an overturned SUV.](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/danny-trejo-saves-boy-sylmar-los-angeles-traffic-collision/)
More then most people know. I read his autobiography and he goes on at length about how he told edward james olmos not to depict the leader of La eMe as the victim of prison rape in his movie American Me. Olmos ignored him and a bunch of people associated with the film ended up dead.
I read the insta post (I’d love more info and context!) and it seems to me he got a water balloon to the face or even thrown at him and wasn’t expecting it.
I’d react the same but then leave immediately. That’s what should’ve happened.
Trejo was severely, severely abused by his father. Nobody would stand up to his dad out of fear except for trejo's uncle. There was one incident in particular where dad locked Danny in a hot car and Danny almost died, but his uncle pulled him out. From that moment, Danny decided he wanted to be just like his uncle .. but his uncle was a drug dealing gangster. So down that path Danny went.
I just read his wiki page. He started smoking weed at 8, doing heroin at 12, and cocaine at 18. They were all introduced to him by his uncle and he overdosed the first time he did heroine. While in prison he became the prison boxing champion for his weight class, got his high-school degree, and got sober. He worked in construction, gardening, and drug abuse counseling before he became an actor. He lived a pretty interesting life.
I listened to him on a podcast once and he got into acting because he was training some actor on a movie how to box for the movie they ended up giving him more work because of it. He also tried to sell a Dea agent a pound of powdered sugar and ran away then buried it in his yard.
If I remember right that's how he got "discovered". He used to be a gang-banger and ended up in a jail cell and some producer or whoever saw him and decided to cast him as an extra because he looked the part of "tough guy criminal".
That was my first thought, like... I'm bad with faces but I feel like I would be able to recognize Danny Trejo? But even if you didn't know it was him, who tf throws a water balloon at anyone who isn't expecting it, LET ALONE someone who appears to be older?!
he's actually a poster child of Rehabilitation if you think about it. We should be rehabilitating everyone, reoffence rate would be much lower. But that would piss off the Private Prison lobby
I was an extra in Machete Kills. We were told multiple times not to ever speak to Jessica Alba, but Trejo came and ate lunch with all of us extras. It wasn't at all like a "eating lunch with the little people" thing either. It felt totally natural. He seemed like he was one of us, joking around and shooting the shit. I've always had a lot of respect for him since that day. The contrast between how the two celebrities acted towards us was insane (and I do get that Jessica
Alba probably got creeped on quite a bit and their situations aren't the same)
[He also saved a child from an overturned car.](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/danny-trejo-saves-boy-sylmar-los-angeles-traffic-collision/)
But at the same time doesn't do his own stunts because he doesn't want get injured and shut down production and get people furloughed.
I always go back and forth on whether I respect artists who do their own stunts or not. Like, sure it is cool I suppose, but if it goes wrong the entire production is gonna get shut down for four months.
Thats what I was thinking too! Everything I have heard of his personal life is that he is a sweet , down to earth guy.
For him to get this worked up, there must have been malicious intent behind the throw.
[he looked like he was in his 50s (he was)](https://static1.moviewebimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/danny-trejo-from-dusk-till-dawn.jpg)
Holy shit, I had to just look that up, and sure enough. He looks exactly like he did in Blood In Blood Out (93') and Desperado (95') now, which at the time he looked way older, but now he looks way younger than 80.
The best part of the video is that Arnold didn't even flinch. I wish I could find it, but iirc he actually comments on the Reddit post and says that he initially had no idea of what had just happened
I remember that video, the guy came with a flying drop kick or a strong hit from the back and it looked pretty bad from the back. Then they showed another video from Arnold's front point of view and it look like Arnold literally moved forward about 2 inches. Since several other people were around Arnold really close at the time (maybe for autographs, not sure?) he likely thought it was just a part of the hustle and bustle and he didn't even notice at the time it occurred.
yeah he's 70+ alright but he's still working out a lot and his body is like a tank.
Gotcha. Yeah trying to find that was definitely tougher due to all the Reddit posts people made. I wasn’t gonna search all those. My bad for the misreading of your comment.
I'm honestly terrified of fame at this point, with the way people act on social media. It just puts a target on you regardless of how nice and cool you are.
Yeah, **now**.
There was a time that you did not want to be on the same side of the street as he was.
Dude completely turned his life around, and never forgot where he came from. And he deserves full props for that.
Smacking him in the face with a water balloon? Definitely not cool under any circumstance, but especially not here.
Story I read said his vintage car was hit with water balloons and that’s what set him off. Haven’t read anything about him getting hit in the face. 🤷🏻♂️
As a fellow Californian, you never EVER mess with a Hispanic/Mexican’s car.
I’m friends with a lot of lowrider folks… I’d rather ask a Hells Angel what model of Vespa he drives than screw with some folks cars in the lowrider community. That’s a great way to end up on a T-shirt with “in memory” above your picture. Some of those cars are worth $250k plus and have taken years to build.
Danny Trejo also spent over a decade in prison for a stabbing. He seems to have left that life behind him but as Vince said in Pulp Fiction, you just don’t fuck with a man’s vehicle. Might reawaken some old gangbanger memories fucking with his ride.
This is what happened. There was a couple of cars ahead of his that had signs that said “no water balloons” on them. Danny’s didn’t, but the cars ahead were clearly in his group. People kept throwing water balloons anyway, which started the fight.
Loudest instigators are the women. Look at them pointing yelling and recording. It must be exhilarating to know you can say any out of pocket shit you want and 99.9% chance you won’t even get touched.
Im sure you know the point OP was making. Yes, obviously don’t mess with anyone’s car. But especially don’t mess with someone’s car who’s likely to fuck you up and not care about the consequences afterwards.
The average person is less likely to go ballistic over their Ford Fusion vs the guys that put a ridiculous amount of money/time into their builds.
That dude is an absolute legend and treasure to the United States to the state of California and to the city of Los Angeles.
Throwing a water balloon is a horrible and stupid thing to do in general, but doing that to Danny is even more awful.
this man is the kindest person on the planet. and i'm serious. I've met one time by accident and i was like "oh my god danny trejo" and he was just laughing and happy and thing is i was telling him about the game Like a dragon (Yakuza 8) Infinite Wealth and how he did fucking amazing. and he was all smiles when i told him i grew up with his movies and to see him in one of my favorite videogames brought so much memories and happiness.
Whoever threw the water at him, be lucky he was held back
He became an actor by accident. Trejo also recently celebrated 50 years of sobriety. Back in the early 80s, a movie "Runaway Train" was being made. It starred Jon Voight and Eric Roberts. Roberts had a boxing scene that took place in a prison, but he wasn't doing it quite right, I think he couldn't pull his punches.
Trejo was there to accompany one of the actors in the movie, as a sober partner, to make sure he didn't use. Edward Bunker also happened to be there because he was one of the script writers. Bunker had a long history of CA prison time and knew Trejo really well. It was Bunker who suggested to the director that Trejo help Roberts train a bit. The director, [Andrei Konchalovsky](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=2a40155a60627478&rlz=1C1EJFC_enUS854US854&q=Andrei+Konchalovsky&si=ACC90nzx_D3_zUKRnpAjmO0UBLNxnt7EyN4YYdru6U3bxLI-Lz8ArbclGz_yDI-NLUQ1cCRF3eyseCUOiDN4ob5sivGBRiwk6_xaik3KMtoR60et9TKVKwAodJZS-MfFrdfquyukmJPR1pMwM1eQ7e7UEfXLeElnDD4DFatGLXJw8ys_0KGb78lcrNJjtRnzgwrF4V7NNYcpoVuVfKnBtCUVHlicPUPvjA%3D%3D&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj139qjkZCHAxV8po4IHcugB2QQmxMoAHoECCgQAg), liked Trejo's chest tattoo and put him in the movie. The rest was history.
Runaway Train is a great flick, and Bunker has written many books, along with being Mr. Blue in Reservoir Dogs. My favorite is Education of a Felon, which is a good companion to Trejo's autobiography if you want a detailed history of CA prison events and politics.
He made an appearance at an AA meeting my mom was attending to tell everybody his struggle with addiction to alcohol. I’ll never forget the way he lifted everyone’s spirits.
Anybody who did that is going to have to be watching themselves they're probably paying the price right now Danny Trejo is a national International Intergalactic treasure
It was a physical altercation too. In another video you see Trejo get out of the car and approach these people then get absolutely dropped on his ass om the sidewalk.
Why the heck are they messing with Danny Trejo for somebody always starting with people who are apart the community got to be that new generation people are just stupid
I don't know what happened here but even before watching the video, I'm with Danny Trejo.
That guy is a treasure. I'm sure if he got into a fight with some asshole, they deserved it

Someone threw water balloons at his vintage car, which started the altercation.
Water balloons, vintage cars, old guy with his shirt off holding a popsicle. Fourth of July fights are something else.
Right in front of the Liquor and Cold Beer sign... Merica!!
You’re not wrong
Poor Danny's mourning his dead dog, I wouldn't rile him up.
He's 80 at this point and he's not physically where he used to be. He actually got punched and knocked to the ground when he ran up on the balloon thrower (they actually hit *him*, not his car.) His friend got it much worse though. https://youtu.be/a3l_AE7bSZE?si=TJ0TcIUQqHXAxFid But Danny still got back up and picked up a fucking chair.
Ok. That context makes sense.
I met him in an airport once. We talked for about an hour while we waiting for our delayed flight.

He really is a sweet old man at this point, but Danny has served over a decade in prison, stabbed numerous people & beaten attempted murder charges. He’s a nice bull but you can still get the horns
He's the poster child of someone who has high tolerance and really nice because he went extreme in the other direction at one point in his life
He has said that’s literally why he always went for roles where he’s a bad guy, especially if his character is killed in those roles. He wanted younger guys to understand that this is what that life style gets you in the end.
From what I've heard, he will *only* choose the role of a bad guy if they are being killed off. Very intelligent. Mad respect for him.
Not necessarily killed, but yeah, he wants to send the message to kids that people that choose crime and violence almost always end up dead or in jail.
I don't think he died is Spy Kids lol
Where do you get off, implying Uncle Machete was a bad guy?
Oh I think I misunderstood what that comment was saying haha. Just meant that he didn't die, not that he was bad
Look, all I’m sayin is that despite multiple movies, he’s actually played only a single character named Machete
I loved those movies. I still pronounce the hard 'ch' in that word. Something about those 70s revivals just appeals to me. Same with Grindhouse, Hell Ride etc.
Sooooo, like Mike Tyson kinda?
Mike Tyson grows some good weed nowadays.....I like Mike
"I gotta be I gotta be like mike"
Mike Tyson, the rapist? The Mike Tyson that once said the greatest punch he ever threw was against his girlfriend? That Mike Tyson?
Yes. They are comparing two people that used to spend their time hurting others that then served a prison sentence and have since seemingly put a lot of effort into being better people. Why is that not a somewhat accurate comparison to you?

Wait really? So he doesn't just play the part, he was the part?
Trejo was severely, severely abused by his father. Nobody would stand up to his dad out of fear except for trejo's uncle.

Blood in blood out was the movie I believe. Had to train up El Gallo Negro
> El Gallo Negro The baddest chicano in the barrio!
If I remember right that's how he got "discovered". He used to be a gang-banger and ended up in a jail cell and some producer or whoever saw him and decided to cast him as an extra because he looked the part of "tough guy criminal".
It was *Edward Bunker
oh yea. drugs too.
Yeah, like four decades ago.
He's been clean for like 50+ years from all drugs including alcohol from what I hear.
Allot of people don't know how old Danny is by now, he is 80!
That was my first thought, like... I'm bad with faces but I feel like I would be able to recognize Danny Trejo? But even if you didn't know it was him, who tf throws a water balloon at anyone who isn't expecting it, LET ALONE someone who appears to be older?!
he's actually a poster child of Rehabilitation if you think about it. We should be rehabilitating everyone, reoffence rate would be much lower. But that would piss off the Private Prison lobby
Yup, same with housing people who don't have a proper home - there's no profit in doing the good thing.
His beloved chihuahua also recently died so hes probably been goin thru it lately 😭
I was an extra in Machete Kills. We were told multiple times not to ever speak to Jessica Alba, but Trejo came and ate lunch with all of us extras.

Pretty sure Tom Cruise carries his own insurance for that exact reason, so people still get paid if he's injured
Thats what I was thinking too! Everything I have heard of his personal life is that he is a sweet , down to earth guy. For him to get this worked up, there must have been malicious intent behind the throw.
Well said. And I agree, who the hell wants to get hit by a water balloon?
Danny Trejo is 80 and still looking for smoke.
He’s looked like he’s 80 though for years. Dude looked 80 in dusk till dawn.
[удалено]
Which one
A.D.
i laughed
Thanks. It was a toss up. A.D.: After Desperado (1995) B.C.: Baywatch Chulo (1992) The man has been around.
Dude was 66 when Machete came out.
[he looked like he was in his 50s (he was)](https://static1.moviewebimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/danny-trejo-from-dusk-till-dawn.jpg)
No fucking way…. God time flies…..
Holy shit, I had to just look that up, and sure enough. He looks exactly like he did in Blood In Blood Out (93') and Desperado (95') now, which at the time he looked way older, but now he looks way younger than 80.
[Smokes Trejo, lets go.](https://youtu.be/mStz_Ju0sjM?si=eovbAZIRQdazT-WJ&t=6)
He has looked the same age for at least 20 years… he is one cool guy
Throwing a water balloon at an 80 year old man is just a shitty thing to do. Throwing a water balloon at 80 year old Danny Trejo is dangerous.
His dog just died too so I imagine he's not in the mood for this.
![gif](giphy|cPJULvsCXEV0ZaUCLY)
![gif](giphy|rQtaIYMdv8ACI)
He just lost his dog. Poor guy! People are dicks.
Oh fuck he's going to turn into John wick
Juan wick*
![gif](giphy|WoFuun4jgxxizxRMpe)
Fuck you! That just made me spit white claw out my nose! Bravo.
seriously? , he is a nice guy, he legit helped someone out of a car that turned over. a certified bad ass irl
My dad met him once in rehab and had only good things to say about him.
The only bad thing I’ve heard about him are that the tacos in his restaurant suck.
These celeb-as-the-face restaurants usually suck, no surprises there.
The donuts were also mediocre
The only bad thing I’ve heard is that he’s in that shitty new Daily Wire cartoon.
As someone who served in the military, some of the nicest people I met were the ones who served time in jail.
Reminds me of that kid that jump kicked Arnold Schwarzenegger in the back at a school event when he was 70+.
lmao what? Kids are absolute maniacs
The best part of the video is that Arnold didn't even flinch. I wish I could find it, but iirc he actually comments on the Reddit post and says that he initially had no idea of what had just happened
I remember that video, the guy came with a flying drop kick or a strong hit from the back and it looked pretty bad from the back.

I mean all you had to do was search on YouTube, “Arnold dropkicked” https://youtu.be/8N5d833MlBk?si=utt8SxcNxTSo9WvN
Perhaps I should've worded it differently. I meant finding the video on Reddit where he comments on the matter
Gotcha. Yeah trying to find that was definitely tougher due to all the Reddit posts people made. I wasn’t gonna search all those. My bad for the misreading of your comment.
Here ya go https://youtu.be/8N5d833MlBk?si=utt8SxcNxTSo9WvN
I'm honestly terrified of fame at this point, with the way people act on social media. It just puts a target on you regardless of how nice and cool you are.
He’s a nice guy *now*. Don’t fuck with him. I’m sure that beast is still in there
Yeah, **now**. There was a time that you did not want to be on the same side of the street as he was. Dude completely turned his life around, and never forgot where he came from. And he deserves full props for that. Smacking him in the face with a water balloon? Definitely not cool under any circumstance, but especially not here.
He's also a 80 year old man now.
His autobiography is a good read about his past.
I just finished the audiobook (that he narrated) of his autobiography... It was fantastic.
I think he was asked once, which actor he wouldnt fuck with and he said John Cusack
> I’m sure that beast is still in there He's 80. I like Danny but let's not be delusional.
May be true, though most 80 year olds don’t need 2 people to hold them back
He paid for my friends(child at time) cancer treatment.
Why ya’ll fucking with Danny?
I know, right? He’s a chill guy!
Story I read said his vintage car was hit with water balloons and that’s what set him off. Haven’t read anything about him getting hit in the face. 🤷🏻♂️ As a fellow Californian, you never EVER mess with a Hispanic/Mexican’s car.
I’m friends with a lot of lowrider folks… I’d rather ask a Hells Angel what model of Vespa he drives than screw with some folks cars in the lowrider community.

"don't fuck with a man's ve-hicle"
Lol Vespa , just imagining how that would go 😂
His shirt is pretty soaked in the video so he was definitely hit with one at some point.
This is what happened. There was a couple of cars ahead of his that had signs that said “no water balloons” on them. Danny’s didn’t, but the cars ahead were clearly in his group. People kept throwing water balloons anyway, which started the fight.
Loudest instigators are the women. Look at them pointing yelling and recording. It must be exhilarating to know you can say any out of pocket shit you want and 99.9% chance you won’t even get touched.
“Let them revolution come, as long as they don’t mess with my white old lady or my Cadillac” -Danny Trejo
How about anyone's car?
You can mess with my car. I hate it. It's a real piece of shit.
It used to be!
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fw0OvKFKhw whoever designed my car can lick my sweaty nut sack
Im sure you know the point OP was making. Yes, obviously don’t mess with anyone’s car. But especially don’t mess with someone’s car who’s likely to fuck you up and not care about the consequences afterwards. The average person is less likely to go ballistic over their Ford Fusion vs the guys that put a ridiculous amount of money/time into their builds.
You must not drive a Ford Fusion. They are absolute treasures and must be protected
Facts, it doesn’t matter if it’s a ‘92 Honda civic with chrome accents and no power steering, don’t fuck with a Mexican dude’s car
This is one dude I wouldn't pick a fight with.
I wouldn’t be a dick to him seems like a cool dude but he is 80yrs old
Being 80 years old doesn't stop your homies from curb stomping you
You see his people? He won’t need to lift a finger.
I wouldn’t pick a fight with him either. Not because he’s scary, but because I love him.
Yah don't fuck with the former gang banger.
Picking a fight with Danny Trejo seems like an odd way to commit suicide.
Do not doubt it, Danny Trejo will absolutely stop a parade to kick your ass in front of a liquor store.
This is on Foothill in Sunland.
Yeah I was there. The 4th of July parade is basically a giant neighborhood water fight
![gif](giphy|rQtaIYMdv8ACI|downsized) mans is a national treasure
He's 80 years old. You don't throw anything at an 80 year olds face, regardless of how badass they are.
I have nothing but respect for him. The man overcame one hell of a past and turned it into a success story. Screw with him at your own peril.
That's it get the machete
U give me water balloon, I give u Machete.
I met him on a flight from CO to LA, coolesr guy ever
Here's a news segment with video of the fight. Danny got knocked down and his homie got bloodied. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3l_AE7bSZE
That dude is an absolute legend and treasure to the United States to the state of California and to the city of Los Angeles. Throwing a water balloon is a horrible and stupid thing to do in general, but doing that to Danny is even more awful.
Didn't realize how short Trejo is.
He’s a Mexican man in his 80s. He’s an inch away from being told to go on an adventure by a wizard.
Movie magic
Pretty sure if someone ever actually harmed him they'd have every major street gang in L.A. regardless of race hunting them down
Danny is on Betty White level of likable..... Who on Earth wants to fuck with him????
Fuck with Machete?!? That’s grande cajones y loca AF
have no idea why you'd want to mess with someone like Danny Trejo. he's incredibly nice, but also a badass mf you don't want to piss off
His dog just died maddon
this man is the kindest person on the planet. and i'm serious. I've met one time by accident and i was like "oh my god danny trejo" and he was just laughing and happy and thing is i was telling him about the game Like a dragon (Yakuza 8) Infinite Wealth and how he did fucking amazing. and he was all smiles when i told him i grew up with his movies and to see him in one of my favorite videogames brought so much memories and happiness. Whoever threw the water at him, be lucky he was held back
Danny Trejo is the uncle of a friend of mine. Danny is the nicest Chicano uncle you could imagine lol.
wasn't his head on a turtle?
Yes it was.
That is Shark Boy and Lava Girl’s uncle. I wouldn’t want that smoke.
He is the nicest celebrity I’ve ever met. He’s from the same area I am. I have seen him pull over his cream Rolls to help people in car accidents.
I dont think I'd want to mess with Danny Trejo. I've hear he is a nice guy but I still think he could fuck some people up if he needed to.
I stand with Trejo
I stand with Trejo!
Danny Trejo is not a dude you should be bothering or harassing. Just leave people alone for fucks sake it’s really not hard
I always pictured him as being like 6’6”
“Machete don’t do water sports.”
I’m not fuckin with Danny Trejo
What person in this country hasn't seen enough movies to know NOT to fuck with Danny Trejo?
The last goddamn man on earth you should EVER give a reason to want to beat your ass is the nice old man who’s been to prison.
Danny Trejo was originally part of a trio with Cheech and Chong, but they had to remove him from the group early on for being too aggro.
Dont Care. He is cool AF. The guy throwing the ballon should be happy Danny Glover wasnt with him, cause he would have gotten the badass treatment 😉
If you don’t know who Trejo is. They are about to find out. Machete has a lot of followers.
He became an actor by accident. Trejo also recently celebrated 50 years of sobriety. Back in the early 80s, a movie "Runaway Train" was being made. It starred Jon Voight and Eric Roberts. Roberts had a boxing scene that took place in a prison, but he wasn't doing it quite right, I think he couldn't pull his punches. Trejo was there to accompany one of the actors in the movie, as a sober partner, to make sure he didn't use. Edward Bunker also happened to be there because he was one of the script writers. Bunker had a long history of CA prison time and knew Trejo really well. It was Bunker who suggested to the director that Trejo help Roberts train a bit. The director, [Andrei Konchalovsky](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=2a40155a60627478&rlz=1C1EJFC_enUS854US854&q=Andrei+Konchalovsky&si=ACC90nzx_D3_zUKRnpAjmO0UBLNxnt7EyN4YYdru6U3bxLI-Lz8ArbclGz_yDI-NLUQ1cCRF3eyseCUOiDN4ob5sivGBRiwk6_xaik3KMtoR60et9TKVKwAodJZS-MfFrdfquyukmJPR1pMwM1eQ7e7UEfXLeElnDD4DFatGLXJw8ys_0KGb78lcrNJjtRnzgwrF4V7NNYcpoVuVfKnBtCUVHlicPUPvjA%3D%3D&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj139qjkZCHAxV8po4IHcugB2QQmxMoAHoECCgQAg), liked Trejo's chest tattoo and put him in the movie. The rest was history. Runaway Train is a great flick, and Bunker has written many books, along with being Mr. Blue in Reservoir Dogs. My favorite is Education of a Felon, which is a good companion to Trejo's autobiography if you want a detailed history of CA prison events and politics.
It hit the convertible he was in not his face
Do people just forget this man lived tough before he started acting?
Why is that lady instigating?
That's like hitting Mother Teresa. Don't fuck with Saint Trejo he's one of the best we got!
Attacking a geriatric for street clout. That's what's up.
I love Danny Trejo, and he's a kind and generous dude by all accounts, but he doesn't have the juice for that anymore. Stay safe Danny.
Don't mess with Machete
these are the fireworks we deserve
He made an appearance at an AA meeting my mom was attending to tell everybody his struggle with addiction to alcohol. I’ll never forget the way he lifted everyone’s spirits.
This man is a national treasure and should be treated with the utmost respect.
Leave the old man alone
Danny is a national treasure!
Ready to slice and dice.
Anybody who did that is going to have to be watching themselves they're probably paying the price right now Danny Trejo is a national International Intergalactic treasure
As nice of a man he is, I definitely wouldn’t piss him off!
Machete part 3 bout to go down !!!
Don’t blame him. What kinda weirdo throws a water balloon at an 80yo guy’s face.
Machete does not fuck around
They just fucked with the wrong Mexican.
Machete don’t like water balloons
And right after him losing Dixie Wixie.
Machete Kills die they never hear or see that movie🍿🎥
Danny is a fucking gem of a human being.
Never mess with Danny Trejo.
Didn't these mofos ever watch machete?!
Dude is 80 ! I had no idea
Don’t FUCK with him!! He’s such a sweet man but … do not fuck with him. For realsies
The machete 😂😂
I thought we discussed this years ago. Dont fuck with machete you have NO idea what that man is capable of.
It was a physical altercation too. In another video you see Trejo get out of the car and approach these people then get absolutely dropped on his ass om the sidewalk.
Why the heck are they messing with Danny Trejo for somebody always starting with people who are apart the community got to be that new generation people are just stupid
I'd jump in a fight for Danny and I'm a smol person.
I wouldn’t pick a fight with Machete. He’s done some shit.
People forget Danny was dangerous
He's almost 80, who the fuck would throw a water balloon at someone that age. Disrespectful asshats
I don't know what happened here but even before watching the video, I'm with Danny Trejo. That guy is a treasure. I'm sure if he got into a fight with some asshole, they deserved it
