American Gladiators’ Malibu - on recovery

Every once in a while, there is a man. A man who defies all classification, rejecting codifications like “California Surfer” and “Buffalo Hockey Hair.” This man is Malibu. Watch him talk about his recent recovery from a most massive injury:

I think Malibu is a poet of our times, and he may not be knowing it. Here’s the verse from his interview:

Well dude it’s like this
I saw this guy comin’
and I took the most
EXCELLENT HIT OF MY LIFE!

Next thing I knew
I was on the beach
takin’ in some cosmic rays
gettin’ healed by mother nature.

Takin’ a little brewski
holdin’ on to a beautiful babe
AND I’M FINE TODAY.

In case you missed the moment that inspired this magical moment in poetic history, you can see a repeat in slow motion video:
