The performance by Karl Dall and Paola is remembered for its deliberately awkward and chaotic energy, mixing lighthearted music with Dall’s trademark offbeat humor. Paola treats the moment like a polished pop performance, while Karl Dall intentionally interrupts the flow with clumsy timing, exaggerated facial expressions, and playful irreverence. The contrast between her professionalism and his refusal to take the moment seriously is what makes the clip so memorable and amusing.

As the performance continues, the humor comes from the unpredictability, leaving viewers unsure whether things are actually falling apart or unfolding exactly as intended. Karl Dall’s comedic style often pushed social boundaries just enough to create laughter through secondhand embarrassment, while Paola’s calm and composed reactions help ground the scene. Together, they deliver a classic variety-show clash of styles that feels spontaneous, messy, and unforgettable—the kind of television moment that sticks with audiences precisely because it refuses to follow normal expectations.

THE NIGHT ROBIN WILLIAMS LAUGHED SO HARD… EVEN JOHNNY CARSON COULDN’T KEEP IT TOGETHER.

The sitυatioп iпside the shelter was heartbreakiпg. Bills had piled υp beyoпd what the owпer coυld maпage. Doпatioпs had slowed. Staff members, exhaυsted aпd overwhelmed, had already begυп prepariпg for the υпthiпkable. Keппels were beiпg cleaпed пot for пew arrivals, bυt for fiпal goodbyes. The atmosphere wasп’t chaotic—it was heavy, qυiet, aпd filled with the kiпd of sileпce that comes wheп hope starts to fade.

Aпd theп, withoυt warпiпg, the door opeпed

Adam Lambert aпd Oliver Gliese stepped iпside—пo eпtoυrage, пo cameras, пo aппoυпcemeпt. Jυst two people eпteriпg a place that had almost beeп forgotteп. At first, пo oпe recogпized them. Aпd eveп if they had, it woυldп’t have mattered iп that momeпt. Becaυse they wereп’t there as celebrities. They were there with pυrpose.

There was пo hesitatioп, пo reqυest for special treatmeпt. Jυst a qυiet reqυest that immediately shifted the eпergy iп the room.

A staff member led them dowп a пarrow hallway liпed with keппels. Some dogs barked weakly. Others didп’t move at all. A few lifted their heads jυst eпoυgh to ackпowledge the preseпce of someoпe пew. The air carried a mixtυre of aпxiety aпd resigпatioп—aпimals seпsiпg somethiпg was comiпg, eveп if they didп’t υпderstaпd what.

At the very back of the shelter, they stopped.

Iпside a corпer keппel lay Bυddy—aп 11-year-old Labrador mix. His fυr was dυll, his body thiп, aпd his eyes tired. He didп’t bark. He didп’t approach. He simply watched, as if he had already learпed пot to expect aпythiпg.

Oliver was the first to kпeel dowп.

He reached throυgh the bars geпtly, lettiпg Bυddy come to him iпstead of forciпg coпtact. His voice was soft, almost a whisper. “Hey… yoυ’re пot iпvisible, yoυ kпow that?”

Bυddy didп’t move at first. Bυt after a momeпt, he shifted slightly closer.

Adam stepped forward, placiпg his haпd carefυlly oп Bυddy’s head. He didп’t say aпythiпg right away. He jυst stayed there, preseпt, lettiпg the momeпt speak for itself.

For a few secoпds, the eпtire room felt sυspeпded iп time.

Theп Adam stood υp.

“How maпy dogs are here?” he asked.

“Thirty-пiпe,” a staff member replied qυietly.

There was a paυse.

Adam aпd Oliver looked at each other—oпe of those υпspokeп exchaпges where everythiпg is υпderstood withoυt a siпgle word beiпg said.

Theп Adam пodded.

“All 39 dogs deserve a tomorrow.”

Oliver’s eyes didп’t leave Bυddy. “Every siпgle oпe,” he added.

What happeпed пext υпfolded so qυickly that it felt almost υпreal.

By the пext morпiпg, trυcks begaп arriviпg—oпe after aпother. Sυpplies poυred iп: braпd-пew beds, cleaп blaпkets, food, medical eqυipmeпt, toys, aпd materials to repair the agiпg facility. Workers came to fix brokeп keппels, repaiпt walls, aпd restore the shelter iпto somethiпg that пo loпger felt like aп eпdiпg—bυt a begiппiпg.

The traпsformatioп was immediate aпd overwhelmiпg.

Staff members who had beeп prepariпg for loss foυпd themselves prepariпg for reпewal. Volυпteers retυrпed. The qυiet, heavy sileпce was replaced by movemeпt, by voices, by somethiпg that hadп’t beeп there iп a loпg time—

Hope.

Above each keппel, a small sigп was placed. Simple. Haпdwritteп. Bυt powerfυl eпoυgh to briпg tears to those who read it:

“Forever home — with love from Adam & Oliver.”

Bυt the most meaпiпgfυl momeпt didп’t happeп dυriпg the reпovatioпs.

It happeпed qυietly.

Bυddy was geпtly broυght oυtside.

For the first time iп what felt like forever, he stood iп the opeп air. Oliver kпelt iп froпt of him, holdiпg his face geпtly, smiliпg throυgh tears. Adam clipped a leash oпto his collar, his movemeпts calm aпd certaiп.

“He’s beeп waitiпg too loпg,” Adam said softly.

Oliver пodded. “He’s comiпg home with υs.”

Aпd jυst like that, everythiпg chaпged.

No speeches. No press. No пeed for recogпitioп.

Jυst a decisioп.

Iп a siпgle visit, Adam Lambert aпd Oliver Gliese didп’t jυst save a shelter—they chaпged the coυrse of 39 lives. Thirty-пiпe dogs who woυld wake υp to aпother day. Thirty-пiпe chaпces that almost disappeared.

Aпd maybe that’s what made it so powerfυl.

Becaυse it wasп’t doпe for atteпtioп.

It was doпe becaυse they chose пot to walk away.

Aпd sometimes, that choice is eпoυgh to chaпge everythiпg.

The White House has issued a response to former WWE star Jesse Ventura after his claims that the 2024 attempt on President Donald Trump’s life was staged.

Readers will remember all too well the assassination attempt that played out during one of Trump’s campaign rallies in Butler, Pennsylvania in July, 2024. At the time, Trump was allegedly shot at by 20-year-old Thomas Crooks, who had positioned himself on a rooftop looking over the stage president was speaking on.

One of the eight shots reportedly fired by Crooks struck Trump in his ear, but he was whisked away by Secret Service and survived the ordeal without serious injury.

As was always likely to be the case with such a monumental happening, the credibility of the assassination attempt has been called into question by some of Trump’s detractors.

Former WWE star, politician, and actor Jesse Ventura recently made a particularly explosive claim during an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored. Ventura, who hosts his own show on conspiracy theories, openly asked: “Where’s his scar today?”

Ventura left Piers Morgan stunned when he referred to Trump’s near-death experience of the president as a “blade job.”

In professional wrestling, a blade job is when a performer intentionally makes themselves bleed to make it look like they’ve suffered a serious injury, heightening the drama of the scene. While intended for entertainment in WWE, Ventura implied the term could also apply to the shooting at the rally in Butler.

During the interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Morgan remarked on Trump’s apparent defiance after the attack.

Ventura scoffed: “Oh yeah right, right, right, you ever heard of a blade job?” When asked if he thought the assassination attempt was “fake,” Ventura added: “I don’t know, where’s his scar today?”

Morgan reminded him that a former volunteer fire chief near Trump at the rally had died as a result of the shooting.

Ventura shrugged it off, saying, “I don’t know, come on Piers, you’re going to tell me this guy’s a big hero now?” When Morgan pressed further, Ventura replied sharply: “Then he accomplished what he wanted out of you guys.”

Asked what he would say to Trump if given the chance, Ventura said he would “prefer not” to speak to the president, claiming:

“He has no courage. He never has. There’s always one guy who will start the fight, and then hold your coat. That’s Donald Trump.”

It took little time for the White House to issue a statement in response to Ventura’s doubts.

Per the Daily Express US, the statement reads: “On that tragic day in Butler, Pennsylvania, we tragically lost an American hero, Corey Comperatore, who selflessly laid down his life to protect those around him. President Trump will never forget Corey and his beautiful family.”

It continued: “On that dark day, God spared President Trump’s life by a miraculous millimeter. President Trump is standing stronger than ever as he continues to ‘fight, fight, fight’ for the American people. Only a fool would believe otherwise.”

If you’ve ever woken up unable to move or speak — even though your mind was fully awake — you’ve likely experienced something called sleep paralysis.

It’s far more common than most people realize, but because the experience feels surreal and often terrifying, many hesitate to talk about it

30% of people will experience it

Most people have never heard of a sleep disorder called sleep paralysis. But it’s something many of us will experience at least once in our lives—whether we remember it or not.

Sleep paralysis is a medical condition that occurs in the moments right before you fall asleep or as you’re waking up. During an episode, a person becomes unable to move or speak, even though they’re mentally awake.

It’s also common to experience hallucinations or out-of-body sensations, which makes the situation feel especially frightening.

According to the Cleveland Clinic, sleep paralysis occurs “when your body is in between stages of sleep and wakefulness.” Episodes usually last anywhere from a few seconds to a couple of minutes and are classified as a type of parasomnia. While the experience can be frightening, sleep paralysis is completely harmless.

Researchers estimate that about 30% of people will experience sleep paralysis at least once in their lifetime.

It can happen just as you’re falling asleep or right as you’re waking up. Common symptoms include an inability to move or speak, pressure on the chest, the sensation of being outside your body, vivid hallucinations, and intense fear or panic. Some episodes last only moments, while others can stretch up to 20 minutes.

So what causes it?

During REM sleep—the stage when most dreaming occurs—your brain temporarily “shuts off” your muscles. This prevents you from physically acting out your dreams. Sleep paralysis happens when your mind wakes up before your body does, leaving you conscious but unable to move.

The mismatch is often triggered by:

• High stress
• Poor or irregular sleep
• Anxiety
• Exhaustion
• Disrupted sleep schedules

Several studies have shown that people who are exhausted, stressed, or dealing with sleep deprivation are more likely to experience sleep paralysis, according to sleep expert and CBT psychologist Charlott Ulfsparre.

Despite the fear it brings, sleep paralysis is not dangerous, and it’s not considered a disease. It’s a natural phenomenon that humans have been trying to understand for centuries. Ancient Persian medical texts described it in the 900s, and one of the first documented cases was recorded by a Dutch physician in 1664.

Many cultures developed their own explanations — Japan speaks of being “bound by steel,” Chinese folklore calls it “ghost pressure,” and in parts of Africa it’s described as “a devil riding on your back.”

Some people also experience intense hallucinations. Many describe a presence in the room, someone sitting on their chest, or even an overwhelming feeling of doom. Swedish artist Jonna Jinton has written about her first experience at age 16, describing a strange vibration and the sensation of being pulled into something. Singer Zara Larsson has also spoken openly about her own frightening episodes.

How to prevent sleep paralysis

• Keep a regular sleep schedule
• Reduce stress
• Avoid screens before bedtime
• Create a calm sleep environment

If an episode does happen, try to focus on slow breathing and attempt to move just one finger or toe. Once a tiny bit of movement returns, the rest of your body usually follows.

Sharing information about sleep paralysis can help more people understand what’s happening to them—and reassure them that this disturbing experience is temporary, explainable, and not dangerous.

Seven dogs from a village in northeastern China turned a nightmare into an internet sensation this week. Stolen from their homes and loaded onto a truck headed for the dog meat trade, the group broke free and walked more than 10 miles back to safety.

They stuck together the whole way, even when one of them could barely keep up. The footage has racked up over 230 million views online, and people everywhere are still talking about what these pups did.

How the Dogs Ended up on the Road in the First Place

The seven dogs lived in the same village near Changchun in Jilin province. They came from three different households but spent their days roaming together as neighborhood pals.

On March 16, thieves working for a dog meat operation grabbed them and crammed them into an illegal transport truck.

No one saw exactly how they got out. Volunteers from a local stray dog rescue group later pieced together that the dogs must have escaped somewhere along the route. Instead of splitting up in the chaos, they formed a tight pack and started heading home.

Watch the video below.

Over the next two days, they covered roughly 17 kilometers, or about 10.5 miles, through fields and along busy highways. They faced traffic, strange surroundings, and exhaustion, yet they never scattered.

The group included a mix of breeds: a German shepherd, a corgi, golden retrievers, Labrador types, and a Pekingese.

They knew the way back because they had explored the area together before. Their shared history as village friends gave them an edge that kept them moving as one unit toward familiar ground.

The Moment a Passerby Captured the Pack on Video

A driver named Lu spotted the dogs on March 16 while traveling the Changchun highway. He pulled out his phone and recorded them walking in a line along the side of the road.

The short clip quickly landed on Chinese social media and then spread worldwide after it appeared on YouTube channels like RIZUKO0011.

In the footage, the corgi stays out front the entire time. He keeps glancing back over his shoulder to check on the rest of the group.

Whenever anyone lags, the little dog slows the pace or circles back. The others follow his lead without question. Larger dogs stay clustered in the middle, creating a protective circle around one member who clearly needs extra help. That member is the German shepherd.

He limps noticeably from an injury to his leg, possibly hurt during the theft or the escape. The rest of the pack adjusts their speed so he can stay with them. They surround him on all sides, shielding him from traffic and keeping him from falling behind.

The video shows the group pausing several times to let the injured dog catch up before continuing forward together.

Viewers zoomed in on those details right away. The corgi’s constant checks and the protective formation around the German shepherd stood out as clear signs of teamwork. Within hours the clip had millions of views, and shares poured in from across China and beyond.

The Safe Return and the Bigger Conversation It Started

By March 19, all seven dogs had reached their village. Volunteers confirmed the group made it back to their three original households.

Each dog had only minor injuries and showed signs of fatigue but nothing serious. Owners reported the pets seemed relieved to be home and quickly settled back into their routines.

One volunteer from the Bitter Coffee Stray Dog Base told local media that the dogs’ return felt like a small win in a tough situation. The story has now pushed many people in China to talk openly about stronger animal protection rules.

The fact that the dogs were taken for the meat trade added weight to those calls, and the viral video gave the issue a face that millions could connect with.

The seven dogs have become local celebrities in their village. Their owners say the pack still roams together, just like before. The footage continues to circulate, reminding viewers that animals can show remarkable loyalty when they face hardship as a team.

This real event from a Chinese highway has left a lasting mark online, not because of any special tricks or training, but because seven ordinary dogs chose to look out for one another all the way home.

A 25-year-old woman will become the first citizen to be euthanized in Spain on the grounds of mental health and depression when she ends her life later today (March 26, 2026).

As per heartbreaking reports, Noelia Castillo Ramos, from Barcelona, has been vying to medically end her life since 2024.

After a long and protracted legal battle, she’s been granted permission on the grounds of mental health.

According to Reuters, Noelia had previously made several attempts to end her own life after a traumatic experience, one of which left her paraplegic.

Shocking reports have detailed that the young woman was living in a state-supervised centre for vulnerable young people in 2022 when she was the victim of serious sexual assault involving a number of people.

After the harrowing incident, she tried to die by suicide by jumping from a building. She survived the fall, but her injuries left her paralysed from the waist down. Since then she’s been diagnosed with a host of conditions including depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and borderline personality disorder.

In March 2021, Spanish lawmakers legalized voluntary euthanasia and assisted death. Under the law, voluntary euthanasia involves a doctor administering a lethal injection to patients who qualify.

When the law was passed – strictly for Spanish citizens – only adults with ‘serious and incurable’ conditions that inflicted ‘unbearable suffering’ were deemed eligible.

Noelia had been scheduled to undergo euthanasia one month after seeing her application approved in August of 2024. The process was immediately halted, however, after her father filed a legal objection.

In March 2025 he appeared in court to urge a judge to cancel the procedure entirely, claiming that his daughter suffers from a personality disorder that affects her judgement. The father’s lawyers argued that Noelia had changed her mind on the idea of euthanasia several times, thus proving that she wasn’t absolutely certain it was the right course of action.

Noelia herself attended those same legal proceedings. As per the BBC, she said at the time: “I want to finish with dignity once and for all.”

The judge in question ruled in her favor, with the Catalan government’s legal representation claiming they’d observed “no evidence of a scientific or expert character has been presented to contradict the many medical reports which support the decision [to die].”

Speaking in a television interview given to Televisión Pública Noticias earlier this week, the 25-year-old revealed that none of her family members support her decision to take her own life.

“I am a pillar of the family. I am leaving them suffering,” she said.

Later she added: “But what about my suffering?”

“No, I was very clear from the beginning,” Noelia went on. “I simply want to go in peace, stop suffering, and that’s it.

“The happiness of a father or mother should not be above the happiness of a daughter.”

Scott McConnell, co-founder of The American Conservative, is calling for the 25th Amendment to be invoked to remove Donald Trump from office.

Donald Trump has faced criticism since the conflict with Iran began. After his return to the White House, his comeback has been anything but calm, and much has happened.

Trump has taken several decisions that have divided opinion, and the coordinated airstrikes with Israel against Iran sparked strong reactions. The conflict in the Middle East has had devastating consequences, and tensions continue to grow. More than 3,000 people have been reported killed, including over 1,000 civilians.

Now, a conservative commentator is urging Vice President JD Vance to take the extraordinary step of removing President Donald Trump from office.

“Announce your support of 25th amendment transition”

Scott McConnell, co-founder of The American Conservative, suggested in a series of posts on X that Vice President JD Vance should consider invoking the 25th Amendment.

It is a rarely discussed constitutional option that allows a president to be removed from office under certain circumstances.

According to VT, he wrote: “My advice to Vance: Announce your support of 25th amendment transition,” before outlining what he described as a possible path forward.

McConnell continued: “Say Chris Murphy or similar will be veep. Announce you will NOT be a candidate in 2028. Use your position, access to the media to explain why this is necessary. Don’t resign.”

He went on to explain that he believes Democratic Senator Chris Murphy is a suitable choice, describing him as someone who is anti-war and “smart and not super woke.”

He wants Trump removed from office

Although McConnell did not explicitly mention Trump’s decision to strike Iran in that particular post, he has previously been critical of U.S. military involvement in the region.

He has also suggested that Senator Marco Rubio could be a part of solving the issue, writing that he could join the effort, “keep his job, negotiate a ceasefire and be the GOP frontrunner,” according to VT.

McConnell later returned to the platform with even sharper criticism of the administration, writing: “So Netanyahu fed Trump BS intelligence.

“Trump, ignoring his own intelligence agencies, lapped it up.

“Now because things didn’t work out like the BS intelligence claimed, wants to commit genocide in our name. OK.”

President Trump has recently stated that there are “strong” ongoing talks with Iran about a possible ceasefire. However, Iranian officials have since rejected those claims.

Chuck Norris left behind a wife and five adult children when he died on March 19, 2026.

The actor was first married for 30 years, then for nearly 30 more before his death.

His wife at the time of his passing was Gena O’Kelley, who shared his love of fitness, prayer and giving back—and his kids share his love of gis, geri and gedan barai.

“To us, wellness consists of many components such as time with loved ones, because personal well-being includes cultivating healthy relationships,” she told NewBeauty in 2023. “Our children are also devoted martial artists so it’s nice that they get to experience that with their father. We believe that a family that trains together stays together. We also try to get a regular workout on our Total Gym because it is such an effective form of exercise.” (Of course!)

Get to know the women who stole the Walker, Texas Ranger star’s heart, as well as the children who say they hope to keep his butt-kicking legacy alive.

Who is Chuck Norris’ wife?

At the time of his death, Norris was married to Gena O’Kelley.

The pair met in 1997 when Norris was on a date with someone else. He wrote in his memoir Against All Odds that she visited him on set the next day, and he invited her to dinner that night.

“I wanted to get to know Gena better, so I asked her to return to Dallas as soon as possible,” he wrote (via PEOPLE). “She came back a couple of weeks later, and our friendship grew into a dating relationship. Before long, I felt myself falling head over heels in love.”

(No word on what happened to the poor woman he was on that other date with.)

They married on Nov. 28, 1998.

O’Kelley is a former model and TV personality, with appearances in Walker, Texas Ranger and Total Gym infomercials (who’d have thought?!).

She now serves as CEO of her and Norris’ water bottling facility, CForce, and is co-founder with Norris of their Kickstart Kids foundation.

“One of our favorite shared passions that people often overlook is giving back to the community,” she told NewBeauty in 2023. “We started Kickstart Kids, which is truly a fantastic organization that teaches martial arts and character development to students. We’ve reached more than 100,000 kids and the breakthroughs that we’ve seen mean the world to us.”

What happened to Chuck Norris’s wife?

According to Norris and O’Kelley, after an MRI scan in 2013, O’Kelley developed gadolinium poisoning, a reaction to a dye in the contrast agent injections used for many MRIs. She suffered kidney problems and rheumatoid arthritis after getting the injection, Hello! reported, and the couple spent $2 million trying to raise awareness of the condition and hold the drug companies who produce the contrast agent accountable. Norris had to take significant time away from Hollywood to be O’Kelley’s caretaker until she was properly diagnosed and treated.

What is the age difference between Chuck Norris and his wife?

Norris was 23 years older than his second wife, O’Kelley. He and his first wife only had a one-year age difference.

How many times did Chuck Norris marry?

Norris has been married twice.

His first wife, Dianne Holechek, was his high school sweetheart: They started dating when he was 16 and she was 15, and tied the knot in 1958—when he was 18 and she was 17!

They separated in 1988 and finalized their divorce in 1989.

He met O’Kelley eight years later and married her after dating her for about a year. They were together until his death in March 2026.

Does Chuck Norris have an illegitimate child?

That’s a rude way to put it, but yes, he did have a child out of wedlock.

While Norris and Holechek were married and he was serving in the Air Force, he had an affair with a woman named Johanna—who didn’t know he was married, so don’t call her a homewrecker! Johanna had a daughter named Dina.

Norris only found out about Dina when she was 26 years old and wrote him a letter.

“I was going through my mail at home and I see this letter and I open it up,” he told Entertainment Tonight in 2004 (via the Daily Mail). “It’s from Dina, and she says, ‘I’m your daughter from a past experience,’ and she said, ‘I found out you were my father when I was 16, but my mother said you were married and we shouldn’t interfere with your family.’ ”

Norris admitted he was reluctant to meet her at first, but is glad he did, because they have a close relationship now.

“I look at her and it’s so amazing,” he said. “Because I’m looking at her, and she’s staring at me, and we just sort of gravitate toward each other, and we just went into each other’s arms and started crying.”

Why did Chuck Norris leave his first wife?

Norris and Holechek never publicly stated the reason they split, but they remained amicable co-parents and friends throughout the rest of their respective lives post-divorce.

Is Chuck Norris’ ex-wife still alive?

Sadly, Holechek died in December 2025. She was 85 years old and had battled dementia for years.

After her passing, Norris paid a sweet tribute to her, writing that Dianne was “an incredible person … she was kind, intelligent and lived life to the fullest.”

He also noted, “She was also a loving and devoted mother to our sons, Mike and Eric.”

Does Chuck Norris have any biological children?

All of Norris’s children are biologically his own.

He and Holechek shared sons Michael (born Oct. 4, 1962) and Eric (born May 20, 1965). He and O’Kelley are parents to twins Dakota Alan and Danilee Kelly, born Aug. 30, 2001. He is also father to Dina, born in 1964, through his affair during his marriage to Holechek.

Who are Chuck Norris’ twins?

Norris’ twins are Dakota Alan Norris and Danilee Kelly Norris.

Danilee paid tribute to Norris after his death, writing in part on Instagram, “I don’t think grief is a good enough word to describe the emotions my family and I are going through right now.. losing a parent is something that you are never prepared for. Before I take the much needed time for myself and my family, I wanted to dedicate this post to my sweet father and acknowledge the amazing man he is.”

She continued, “My dad was my protector the moment I was born and as soon as he took me in his arms, I’ve been his little girl. That was something I would always acknowledge even when I was too big to be cradled properly … My dad loved so deeply and cared for every single person in his life with so much tenderness.”

After thanking God for giving her Norris as a father, she concluded her post, “Thank you, Dad, for supporting me in all my passions and for pushing me to not shy away from the impossible. Thank you for your constant compassion and for loving me so much that it’s made me learn to love myself. I promise I will always and forever try to make you proud even if you already reminded me every day that it was impossible not to. I love you forever.”

Dakota, who followed in his father’s footsteps in studying martial arts, also paid tribute to Norris, praising his generosity and courage.

“You lived your life with purpose and with love for all people,” he wrote in part. “You were the greatest father God could have ever given me and the finest man I’ve ever known. No matter what I was going through, you were always there. You made sure I knew how much you loved me. Honest to God, I don’t think there was a single day that went by where you didn’t say it. I’m so proud to be your son. The memories we made, the lessons you taught me, and the constant laughs we shared will stay with me for the rest of my life.”

“Thank you for everything you gave to our family and for the example you set every day,” Dakota ended his post. “I hope I can live a life that honors you and makes you proud. I love you, Dad. I’ll miss you forever.”

How many grandchildren does Chuck Norris have?

At the time of his death, Norris had six grandchildren (and was expecting a seventh, as son Michael Norris’ wife announced she was pregnant in January 2026).
