Kurzbeschreibung
Everyone wants to be an action hero--as smooth as James Bond, as clever as Captain Kirk, as tough as Charlie's Angels. And now you can: The Action Hero's Handbook is the ultimate guide to an action-packed lifestyle, with genuine step-by-step instructions on interrogating a suspect, catching a great white shark, performing the Vulcan Nerve Pinch, stopping a wedding, navigating a ventilation shaft, and much more. All information is reality-based and comes from a host of experts (including FBI agents, marine biologists, karate champions, wedding planners, and air duct cleaners). With more than 35 illustrations throughout, this dynamic little handbook will teach us all how to keep up with the Indiana Joneses.
Synopsis
Compiles information from movies and television programs including "Star Trek", "Top Gun", and "Body Heat" to teach readers such skills as how to tell if someone is really dead, how to evade a MiG, and how to pick up someone in a bar.

"Chicks only like guys with great skills" - Napoleon Dynamite
14. November 2005
This is a great "coffee table" book. Something anyone would find interesting and amusing.
The book is broken down into 5 sections:
1. Good Guy Skills
2. Love Skills
3. Paranormal Skills
4. Fighting Skills
5. Escape Skills
With each skill, the author introduces when and why an action hero will need to have the skill to follow. This portion of each section is humorous. The author then goes on to actually describe the skill, in step-by-step fashion. The instruction in this book actually comes from individuals who have great experience with the given skills. Upon seeing this book, you may not exactly expect to get official information, as it is filed in the "homor" section at most booksellers, but you are in fact getting solid, real information, which I feel makes the whole book even funnier. It's as if this is the handbook for the training of the modern real-life action hero.
It's a very amusing read - or just something to thumb through while you're waiting for your wife/girlfriend to get ready to go out.
Highly recommended.

Hypnotic
3. März 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
What can one say, but get this book. Yeah, at first people look at you like you're a weirdo, but soon they are reading over your shoulder and can't stop especially, on the how to establish communication with extraterrestrials (man, now I totally understand Close Encounters of the Third Kind).
Be aware that there are some copies of this book that were bound incorrectly so it seems that there are a chunk of pages missing but you find them later on out of sequence. This could be annoying since you may need some of the misplaced techniques pronto such as, the aforementioned establishing contact with extraterrestrials.
It's a cool gift for anyone and it is very informative. How many books really educuate you on how to do cool things in a simple, straight-forward manner? At first you may resist but soon you are drawn to it's hypnotic, educating charm.

Entertaining AND practical
19. Dezember 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
As with the WORST-CASE SCENARIO series that Borgenicht has coauthored, this provides you with the tactics necessary to deal with assorted stereotypical movie situations that could occur in real life from experts who sat down and thought out how to do it. Some are just really farfetched but good for a laugh, like dodging MiGs and how to do Maverick's inverted taunting stunt from TOP GUN (keep about four feet of separation and make sure your vertical stabilizers don't hit), but some are useful, like how to Dirty Dance, how to train for a boxing match, how to survive being hit by a car in the middle of the street, and even how to perform the Jedi Mind Trick (a hypnosis method called "pacing and leading"). It's a good read even if you don't want to be an action hero.
