Joe Rogan is inarguably one of the most reputed figures in the UFC. The ’55-year-old’ comedian-commentator-podcaster boasts unmatched fame owing to his works in multiple fields ranging from martial arts to TV presentation. His podcast, ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ has secured the apex spot of Spotify’s ‘Top Podcasts’ list multiple times previously. It currently sits at the prestigious second spot on this list. On one such episode of ‘JRE’, the noted author and podcaster, Michael Malice, joined Rogan. The duo went on to discuss attacks on political personalities by commoners.

Rogan’s off-camera ‘JRE’ assistant pulled up the incident of ‘The Terminator’ Arnold Schwarzenegger being kicked by a young kid while he was in a fitness center in South Africa 3 years ago, in 2019. Malice was stunned to hear about the incident.
Joe Rogan described the incident of Arnold Schwarzenegger getting kicked
Rogan initially described an incident about the noted politician, Rand Paul, where Paul had broken six of his ribs due to a scuffle with one of his neighbors. Both Rogan and Malice criticized Paul’s neighbor’s unmanly act of attacking him from behind while he was wearing sound-cancellation headphones.
At this juncture, Rogan’s off-camera ‘JRE’ assistant stated, “How about the guy that kicked Arnold Schwarzenegger?”. Malice was startled as he said, “What was that about?”.
Rogan went on to describe, “This kid drop-kicked Arnold Schwarzenegger. I think he was crazy. Because he was screaming out, ‘help me, I need a Lamborghini’ while they were arresting him.”
Malice, still bewildered, stated in a comical tone, “Bath salts. It was the Bath Salts.” While Rogan stated, “World Star Hip-hop, he made it.”
The ‘former Fear Factor host’ then went on to compare the consequences of this incident with both the persons involved. He stated, “Look what’s really gonna happen to Arnold? Nothing. What’s really gonna happen to that kid? He’ll probably go to jail”
But Malice reminded Rogan that the rules weren’t the same everywhere. He stated, “Look at Otto Warmbier in North Korea. He steals a sign, and he’s dead. We don’t know what the laws of South Africa could be.”
Schwarzenegger’s durability impressed Rogan
Rogan was dazzled by the stoutness of even the 71-year-old ‘Terminator’. He stated, “Even though he’s 71-year-old. He’s still a 71-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger. He’s still a tank.” A lot of others would also probably agree with the description of Schwarzenegger given by Rogan.

The ‘former Martial Artist’ also said, “He didn’t even fall over”. His tone clearly implied his bewilderment at Schwarzenegger’s rigidity, even at this age. Rogan displayed his appreciation once more saying, “He got drop-kicked in the middle of his back and he’s just fine. It’s kinda impressive”.
Do you think that you will be able to stand that drop-kick at 71?
