Dolph Lundgren's mere likeness petrifies burglars


Lundgren reuniting with Jean-Claude Van Damme for Universal Soldiers: The Next Generation

This story is simply brimming with awesomeness. According to the Daily Mail, a family photo featuring action star Dolph Lundgren scared off a band of burglars robbing his home near Marbella, Spain. They had tied up and threatened his wife, Anette, with knives asking for cash and jewelry when the mug of Lundgren convinced them otherwise.

They may have turned away simply because of his increased influence as a celebrity, but it's hard to ignore, as the Daily noted, the "6ft 5in karate blackbelt" and intimidating screen presence that Lundgren represents. Either way, more power to Lundgren and his family for avoiding the theft without lifting a finger.

Despite this story's awesomeness, my best wishes still go out to Dolph's wife, Anette, for enduring the whole terrifying ordeal.
