Clint can be a tough guy in person too. After he was elected mayor of Carmel, CA there was public meeting about zoning issues. Apparently a local loudmouth who thought he was the only smart guy in the room kept standing up and interrupting another speaker. In the middle of one of his little speeches Clint stood up, walked over to him and said in his best Dirty Harry voice, "Why don't you sit down and let him speak?"
There was a loud rushing noise of air as the loudmouth left the building.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

I don't know, he can look aat you and not really have to lift a finger. I saw an interview once where the interviewer asked heim a question about his kids. The look would have been enough for me to stop!

Another tough guy was Charles Bronson (The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape, Dirty Dozen, The Mechanic and probably his most memorable series, Death Wish). He had a face that looked like forty miles of bad road. I saw an interview with him on TV. The woman interviewer opened the segment by saying he scared her with nothing more than his low voice and squinty eyed stare.
He'd kick Chuck Norris' ass.

I agree, I liked him in Mr. Majestic! He did a pretty good job of messing up the mafia errr organized crime types!!
