Vin Diesel internet facts were about a year prior to Chuck.
Chuck Norris were over 5-6 months too. I remember hearing them from my roommate in 2006.
Vin Diesel is my hero.
No one believes me on this, but one of my best friends was doing Chuck Norris jokes about 10 years ago.
Him and his cousins used to get high and watch Chuck movies all night and one night they were like 'He can't be hurt!' and they even had an entire mythology based on Chuck
The worshipers of Chuck would go to Valhalla when they die and fight the good fight and every night the dead would rise and they would eat drink and be merry.
The official car of Chuck was a Volvo. If you live in a Volvo you can never die, even simply wearing one around your neck will postpone your life, however a Pinto is an anti-volvo, and followers of Chuck will immediately perish if they come in contact with one...
Yeah I know, random, but my favotire thing they used to do was have very loud conversations in the mall that went as follows "Ok who would win, tiger or a bear? Um tiger because of the speed. Ok, Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan? Bruce, he's got experience on his side. Ok ok, now for a stumper, Chuck Norris, or GOD! (then the other person would get even louders) TRICK QUESTION! Chuck norris IS God!" And everyone would state at them.
Ahhhh memories...
Billy Blanks and his son Billy jr once beat Vin Diesel and Chuck Norris in a fight using a combination of Tae Bo and Cardioke.
The first Vin Diesel joke I ever heard was in December 2005, from my first endgame linkshell which I had just joined.Originally Posted by Intense

[quote="lolwiki"]In late 2005, Norris became the object of an internet phenomenon known as Chuck Norris Facts, which document fictional, often absurdly heroic feats and characteristics about Norris himself. The phenomenon originally started in the "Vin Diesel Fact Generator", and Chuck Norris Facts were created as a byproduct, often using the same facts featured in the Vin Diesel Fact Generator. In time, Chuck Norris Facts became wildly popular, even more so than the original Vin Diesel Fact Generator.[/quote]
who knew o.O i always thought the chuck ones were the original ones (and funnier)
From my experience, whichever facts one heard first determines which facts they prefer. I heard Vin facts first (through these forums), so naturally I see Chuck Norris facts are a cheap knockoff and a steaming pile of donkey shit.Originally Posted by Howard Roark
That being said, I would imagine Chuck Norris facts have some origination (or at least inspiration) from Conan O'Brien's Walker Texas Ranger emergency lever. Probably someone who read Vin facts, watched Conan O'Brien and thought "Hey, I can do that."
I remember seeing Vin jokes way before 05 and before these forums; I had a friend who was obsessed with them. I still find Chuck jokes to be way better.

I heard Chuck Norris jokes first from a friend a long ass time ago and I've heard them in plenty of places since, haven't heard Vin Diesel jokes until the recent thread here on BG.
Chuck Norris jokes got more popular likely because some fag on WoW(or GaiaOriginally Posted by Krye
