A group of criminals wanted to steal from Joe Rogan

Joe Rogan is famous around the world for his innate ability to make mixed martial arts an even more exciting sport than it already is.

With an iconic voice, the American has given fans memories that will last a lifetime, with his legendary calls intertwined with the UFC's greatest moments.

Although he is an excellent conversationalist, Rogan is also a fantastic martial arts practitioner in his own right.

With a high-level background in kickboxing and taekwondo, the podcaster knows a thing or two about how to defend himself.

And those skills came in handy when a gang threatened to rob him.

On an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, he said, “I was walking down the street and I saw these kids and they were street kids. One said, 'Hey man, can I borrow some money?' I thought, 'I have no money.'

“He says, 'Come on, man; I know you got some damn money.” I say, 'No, I don't have any money.' He says, 'Man, I'll just take your money.' I said, 'Okay.'

“I kept walking, he says, 'Where the hell are you going?' I arrived at the door of the taekwondo academy where I taught.

“I say, 'I'm going here to teach.' Would you like to come up'? We looked at each other and he said, 'You teach?' I say: 'Yes'. Then he understood why I was so confident.

“I was trying to figure out, 'Do I kick this guy's head off his shoulders?' By then I had knocked out a bunch of people, I knew how to do it.
