More From Ripley's Believe It or Not
Ripley’s thinks that tidbit about the Russian president is such a big deal? He’s highly skilled in karate. So what? Probably every president or world leader has some kind of talent. Reagan was an actor which I find to be a bigger deal than karate, by the way. I thought the point of Ripley’s Believe it or Not was about those things that would mainly be unbelievable. A nation’s president with an 8th degree black belt in karate is hardly unbelievable.
