I once met Bisping in line at a Sprouts. I didn’t notice him at first but I heard him talk to the cashier and immediately recognized his voice. This was just after he beat Brain Stann in 2012. I said his name to immediately confirm it was him and he responded. He was extremely kind and asked my name while shaking my hand. He was purchasing some food and flowers! Became a bigger fan of him that day.
I met him on the Warrior set. You can see me in the one clip on this video. Hes a real down to earth guy. I thought he was a look alike and he played along haha
Thats awesome, i hope to meet him one day
I worked with an old guy who used to work at drink with bisping, apparently he lived in Clitheroe near me n worked in a carpet factory!
I met him on a gay hotline
Good times too bad it got banned
I have met mark hunt he is such a nice guy I recognized him instantly he was at crooked pigeon it's a bar he was so loud that's how I spotted him literally no security just friends and family he didn't mind you coming up being your mark hunt arnt you hahah can you sign something of mine hahaha I still have the wallet he signed
its not that we want to hear you getting murdered, its just that the count is just as badass of a storyteller as he was a fighter. we luuuhhh you mike... we luuh you
Nothing but Luhhh homie
See you sun boi!!
@@Elizabeth-vz3zc we lueee you Mike
@@redcoatphilosopher5348 greetings my name is teleportdinero
@Jhon Sepulvedo And Luke Rockhold
As a Capetonian that has been mugged on numerous occassions, I can identify with your experience. Those streetboys are ruthless
As a Durbanite I concur
Joburg boet
Being out in South Africa on foot at 2am is asking for trouble though.
I'm sure I remember hearing that in South Africa some decades ago they used to sell a kit to install a flamethrower under your car so you could burn the face off car muggers but that only resulted in muggers shooting the victim in the face without warning to ensure they wouldn't get burned to crisps so it wasn't very effective.
Have you heard about this?
Edit: it was called the blaster and it was invented in 1998. I had to Google it to make sure I didn't dream it
@@amg863 I dont recall such thing like probably but I mean a gun in a reachable place is easier
There's a lesson here: You can literally be one of the best fighters on the planet, but often the correct answer will be... Run.
He was never one of the best on the planet😂 “he’s just an average bloke”. When he got his chance he took advantage. Legend in the sport. Not one of the best to ever do it though
As compared with the general population? Yeah he is. Even now.
The two best fighters in history: Smith & Wesson
Lessons from Jocko
@@Mason-iq8xt thats not the point of the lesson
"you guys seem to like hearing stories about me getting murdered"
😂😂😂 That was funny🤣
hahaha
yeah we all love when bisping almost gets murdered! keep the stories coming!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have been wondering for a few years now if Bisping will end up doing stand up comedy on the side as one more hobby. Such a great story teller. Any story you tell Bisping, I am all ears and always entertained.
Hes amazing on the Tigerbelly podcast! Bobby Lee was trying to push him to do a set and he needs to! Hilarious.
He's doing a world tour called tales from the octogan go buy tickets 👍 I have
@@TheHarrip All over this!
I also mentioned his story telling abilities, he is very good at it. This video is 11 minutes long but I was so in tuned into listening to him it seemed like 5 minutes, lol.
@Lifter85 you're the nostalgic kind, aint ya? romantic and passionate... I feel you. that's sweet.
I grew up in Johannesburg and have survived 3 car hi-jackings (Shot once), 2 home invasions (1 shoot out with suspects) and been in the middle of a cash in transit robbery with bullets flying everywhere...South Africa is a very dangerous place which is really sad because it has enormous potential, what a shame that a lecherous bunch of thugs were allowed to be given control of such a beautiful country...
My God. It sounds worse than the bad neighborhoods in the US.
Depends on the province you live in. South Africa is not dangerous. But certain provinces in South Africa are very dangerous (Western Cape, Gauteng, Kzn).
@@gemox3225 Your bad states are our average places lol
@@gemox3225 no it is not America with their serial killers and mass school shootings get out of here!!
@@hopes9451 cape Town is one of the most dangerous cities in the world brah. Search it
The rock thing happened to my friends dad in Johannesburg - dropped a rock on his windshield, he crashed, spent 3mo in hospital & all they took was his watch. The only reason they didn’t kill him was he was passed out & they probably thought he was dead already. SA is dangerous AF. Never go anywhere without a local guide.
Sorry to hear that same thing happened to my Dad though it was in kenya lucky for him he didnt stop
I was almost hijacked in lenasia by an armed person. Drove over his foot and fucked off.
That's sad.
It's called research, no need for a guide. Johannesburg is much worse than cape town
@@robertjordaan9924 No its not. Johannesburg is factually less dangerous the Cape Town. And if we talk about the whole province, Western Cape makes Gauteng seem like Norway in terms of safety.
Drugs are also less rife among Gauteng crooks, which reduces homicidal robberies by a huge margin. You can also visit maximum security prisons from each of those two provinces to see first hand the differences in mindset between Western cape crooks and Gauteng crooks.
Kzn is also another rough province. I don't know why people keep going to those war zone provinces when there a whole 6 provinces that are significantly much more safer. You'll even have Capetown residents fleeing the whole country instead of just saving money and moving to Limpopo.
How can you not love this guy.. bisping on CZcams is the best thing that has happened this year!
You're supposed to compare him to. Something good! 😅 Can't beat an accidental backhanded compliment.
Best thing that happened since covid,
Is it you tito?
You never lets us down until now tito
@@kevjames4236 I meant it’s the best thing that’s happened in general since Covid lol I love the guy I wouldn’t insult him
isn’t he fucking awesome?
It's not bad
Isn’t Cape Town known for two things: being world-class pretty and being world-class dangerous?
This is very true coming from a Capetonian lol
Only in some areas. Mostly it's fine
Extend that to the whole of South Africa except Joburg. Joburg ain’t pretty at all.
@@daggaboom
I found it beautiful.
Some of the most beautiful areas is RSA are there.
@@kundakaps pffft for real? Where in Joburg is pretty
thats why we enjoy listening to you, its because of how you share the story and you just say it, no filter. Not because of the getting hurt thing. have a great day always Michael!
Bisbing you legend. I will like every single one of your videos just to support this channel. There aren't enough honest people with a spotlight in the media, and you sir are one of them.
As a South African: Thank you, Michael, for sharing your story, and especially for your balanced way of doing so! Ours is a beautiful country, but it absolutely has a lot of danger lurking within it. People often either demonize the place, or sugar coat the situation. You said it like is: A great place, but it absolutely has some truly dangerous streets and corners.
Thanks again!
agreed
Username checks out
@@a.c.slater573 🤣👏👏👍 nice!
What exactly is balanced about this drivel? This moron went and walked around a foreign city, drunk in the middle of night, flashing a smartphone. Would it be safe to do that in LA, where he lives? In California, people get robbed and murdered in their AIRBnb's
@@liammoses9893 Very true, he downplayed his drunken stupidness, would probably invite thieves in any city in the world at night time.
these Bisping almost dying stories are surprisingly never click-baited in the slightest hahaha. guy’s a gangster.
A crapping in your pants story is not typically the best way to establish your "gansta" cred.
@@onlyonecannoli3952 good way to establish honesty though
@@onlyonecannoli3952 nah its gangsta that he admits it he a real one
I feel like Michael's mental training he learned through combat sport, truly plays a big role in how quick he was able to read the situation in order to react appropriately. Legend💪
I suspect it was more the environment he grew up in. Parts of the UK can be pretty bleak to say the least. Good people, though
His first reaction was to shit himself. His words not mine
wow mike so awesome to see your youtube channel take off in such a short amount of time, love having your voice out there to comment on everything going on
Bisping is a natural storyteller. He could talk about toilet paper for 15 minutes and i wouldn't take my eyes of the screen.
Story Time With Uncle Mike?
Ayyy Bisping just appeared out of nowhere with his own personal channel and is now putting out the best content by far! 😎
Everyone is realising how much money is to be me made from CZcams. But yes I like Michaels stories
This channel is great for his celebrity status
The background is fire
What an amazing Story. Michael you really have a natural gift in story telling. I was captured all the way through. Well done champ
Michael " I just can't help going out to the wrong places to get drunk " Bisping . It's great for stories but not longevity . You da man Mike !
You need to remind people you have an autobiography out if they want more stories. Read it last year, brilliant read.
Boring
You fucking legend. I love these damn stories. Tell us more!
I am South African (I live in Johannesburg) and this is everyday life for us, this story is the norm...doesn't even shock me! Crime here is out of control!
We have a beautiful geographical location and we are rich in our cultures....Yin & Yang
@Alexander Wolfgang south african is a nationality, like "british". it does not imply ethnicity like "african" does.
by his name, i'd say he's a white south african male, like i am.
@Alexander Wolfgang so a black person can't be English or German?
Your Channel got so much better mike ! Thank you
For Michael Bisping, the octagon is the safest place in the world because there is only one person trying to kill him.
Lmfao
Don't have to put a gun to his head to get him into octogons either, only cars it seems.
and that person is Dan Henderson
Hahahaha
@@DeadEyeDonny007 Dan too old now. Bisping already beat old Dan.
What a story Michael, that blew my mind. Love listening to your stories and watching the content on the channel, I am super stoked for you that it's blowing up (very well deserved) Have a great day mate
@Drone Adventures probably
Bisping on CZcams is one of the best subs I've done in ages. Very engaging. Keep it up!
Love the way you inject a little humor into this. Thanks for sharing
I love how this channel is growing.....happy for you Mike
You're a hell of a storyteller, Bisping. Could listen to you talk all day.
Bisping is a very smart man! Making a youtube channel is by far a smart smart move. Thanks Michael for the content and the story! Cheers brev
@Velvet Kush Thats usually how it goes, even if theyre lying ig its still entertainment which means more clicks. I think its smart that a lot of celebs are coming onto youtube. Hell have you seen hot ones? So many top celebs on that show.
I remember when you told this story a while back on BYM but man hearing it again makes me realize how serious that situation really was.
I lived in green Point, Cape Town for a few years in my early twenties. One night I was visiting a friend in Rondebosch and left her place at around 10pm thinking I could just get a taxi home (I was still new to the city). Well, I stood on the main road for a while and no taxis would stop for me, and eventually I just started walking towards the city, hoping a cab or people carrier would stop for me at some point.
In retrospect I realised I'm an idiot because I should have just gone back to my friend's place and asked to crash on her couch.
No taxis stopped and I'd been walking for about an hour when I found myself in Woodstock, which has/ had a reputation for being quite a dodgy area. The streets were deserted and my eyes were darting left and right and scoping out every corner when, from an alley to my right, three guys come trotting out towards me, asking me what I had for them.
I'd passed a police station at one point during my long walk and in the same second I registered the guys approaching me, I thought back to that police station, spun 180 degrees and started sprinting at top gear. The guy closest to me stuck his foot out and tried to trip me, but I felt like Neo from the Matrix in that moment and jumped over his sweeping, outstretched leg, hit the tar and sped off, with all three of them giving chase.
Now, I could have just stayed put and let them rummage through my backpack and pockets only to find I had almost zero cash and nothing of value on me, but it being South Africa, they may have just stabbed me up either way regardless and I didn't want to take that chance. Hence the swift exit.
Anyway, speeding off I left two of the guys in the dust fairly quickly, with only one guy managing to keep up with me. During the chase, the dude nailed me twice with a rock on the back of the foot in an effort to take me down. I barely registered these and they pinged off my foot like a bullet ricochet (nice aim on the guys behalf though!). I imagine I looked like a cartoon character, with both legs spinning in circles, leaving a cloud of dust behind me.
After a few seconds (what felt a lot longer) he eventually gave up but I kept pace, gained more distance and made my way to the cop shop I'd seen earlier. When I arrived, there was a black guy who had had a similar experience and was waiting to talk to an officer. He asked what had happened to me and when I told him he said "I don't want to sound funny, but dude, you're white!!". The implication being "what the hell is your dumb ass doing walking through Woodstock at 11pm??".
After a while, and some arguments with a couple of less than helpful cops, I eventually managed to get a taxi to collect me and take me home.
I'll tell you one thing, if there is some sort of afterlife and we get to ask a question about our life, I'd love to know what time I clocked for the 100 meters, because I damn sure would have given Usain Bolt a run for his money!
i am jamaican you sure would
You got Bisping like cardio buddy. Good for you.
I don't normally read comments that long but that was a well written comment..
Funny in hindsight but yes you where a lucky guy that night. Stay safe bro
Nice story.. more importantly I'm glad you made it, this is a good example of trusting your instincts. Cheers.
Jesus. I'll finish reading that tomorrow 🙄🙄🙄🤦🏻♂️
I love story time! 🔥 This was a good one. That's crazy man!
Glad you're still with us mate! God damn thats scary.. Lessons learnt though right?
Please do more of these, watched the whole video, you are a great storyteller.
Love the consistency of these videos, you're the man Mike
Love these story's haha just glad your still with us bro alot of close calls especially when your a fighter for a living
Just subscribed, glad I did. Been in your corner for a long time, great story & glad you lived to tell it.
Appreciate the story mate, definitely keep that in mind if I ever go travelling in that part of the woods. Good to see all ended well, you have luck on your side.
who would have known that Michael's best videos in terms of feedback and views would be about him almost getting killed 😅 we love you Mike we promise
both you and uncle chael are my favorite story tellers! looking forward for more contents!
Man you do a really good job of telling stories. CZcams, like your fighting career, you have just gotten better and better, as time passes.
It would be great to go out for a drink with Mike. Great stories and tells them in such a good way 👏👏👌
"Little tipsy" "Little buzzed" translation: "too drunk to find a giant hotel 100m away or operate a smartphone".
😂😂
He's british. A party isn't over til everyone can no longer walk or talk hahaha
@@B355Y There's a reason why one of their colloquialisms for "drunk" is "pissed". You ain't "drunk" till you're pissing your pants.
@@Elizabeth-vz3zc Can't walk the streets of Cape Town pissed anymore. You are a sitting duck. Tourists need to know this.
lol
yes yes yes we need more of these bisping!! remember being at the o2 watching ufc 85 and your fight against Jason “dooms” Day!! Been a a massive fan since, watched every fight and your whole journey!! nothing but respect and love!! Bisping your a legend!!
bro we just simply love you keep them coming
Thank you for sharing your experience.
The stories are awesome Mike!
Mike’s gonna be huge on this platform soon man. His content is incredible. Fight breakdowns are second to none as well.
Really enjoyed the story. You've got a way with words. Glad you didn't die. Cheers!
Love your videos mate! Keep up the good work 💪🏻
Bisping, you damn legend! I think i speak for everyone else, that even though your life was in danger, those stories are amazing! Keep up the fantastic work with the channel! Cheers from Portugal
Stories about close encounters like this is super important to share imo.
Could save someone's life.
Thnx for sharing
Bang on pal!really enjoyed that!😎👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great storyteller. I saw everything like a movie in my head.
You are a legend bisping ... great show keep em coming....from mark in England
You are one great storyteller Michael. Hope to hear more story's from the count.
Love these videos, keep it up fella
As someone living in Cape Town I’d love to have run in to Mike and given him a tour. It’s a beautiful place but definitely has dodgy places that you need to avoid. Glad you survived left hook Larry
I was fortunate to visit SA years ago. Cape Town is now my favorite city in the world. The location is beautiful and the people were great!
Thought the same thing while watching this , imagine bumping into your favourite ufc fighter in your own home town
Agreed. It's got its amazing bits, but unfortunately it also has things and places you just don't do or go. Living here is a dichotomy of living in a 1st world city in a 3rd world country.
Lucky Dube wasn’t so lucky and he was a local hero…
Was lucky enough to have worked with him on set and getting a photo with the Count
You Sir are a great Storyteller and it´s very interesting to listen to you keep them videos coming ^^
During Michaels fighting career, I never would've believed I'd become a fan of his, but I have!!! All the best Mr. Bisping
I get to so excited every time bisping uploads it’s literally the highlight of my day
Please keep up the life stories. I’m sure you being a ufc hall of famer and one of the goats of MMA you have a lot of life experiences.. keep it up Mike.
this guy has stories for ages, keep em coming bro!
These stories are amazing Bisping. Legenddd
Bud, you're a great story teller. I'm from South Africa, lived in Cape Town and know what you're talking about. Glad you're OK
Bisping is an absolute legend!! Awesome videos 👍
Unfortunately this is the reality of my beautiful country. As a South African this is normal to us. You got to always keep your guard up. Proudly South African 💪
Absolutely love listening to your stories and thank God you're alive
Love from Dublin
I feel like an idiot that one of my most disliked UFC fighters has now turned to one of my favorite. I have the utmost respect for Michael Bisping. UFC Hall of Famer, Analyst, Actor, pretty funny dude, Family man and now a CZcamsr. I feel this man can do whatever he wants and be great at it.
Your story telling is great! thats why i like these kind of stories!
More of these mike. I love his stories about almost being murdered.
I’ve not missed one of Bisping’s videos yet lol
Same haha
Same too lol
true
So glad Bisping is doing CZcams such an interesting guy!
LOVE Your chanel bro xx RESPECT....From Scotland..... GTC xx
You're a great storyteller, really enjoying these
I'm exited to see and hear you the 14th of October in Amsterdam Mike ..I have a golden seat 👊😎
South Africa stand up 🌍🏁 how could we do bisping like this 😂😂
After the war ended america got the best scientists fron germany to start nasa
Its even official, wernher von braun was adolfs rocket scientist
Thats the guy "who brought people into space" and directed all 6 moonlandings
Fun fact his best friend was walt disney and on his grave stone he only wanted one thing
"Psalms 1:19" which basically means that you cannot leave "the firmament"
Coincidence right, all conspiracies moonlanding and disney have nothing do with each other and this was his last troll and not like a confession of smthn
Amper moer hulle vir Bisping 😂🤦♂️
We didn't do anything. Looks like his agency booked him into a Hotel in Mitchells Plain🤣
Just another white man at night in the hood in south Africa 🌍
OH NO :( Honestly I that was just REALLY unlucky.. I've lived here my whole life, and never had to deal with that! Mr Bisping get a local with you next time! I don't mind being your tag along! I used to run events here (before COVID), but would love to show you to nice side to this amazing city!
Michael you're an amazing storyteller!
You're a great story teller.
Don't feel too obligated to satisfy youtube. Just be yourself, we love it.
I watched you in the UFC and on Warrior 👍🏽 ..you’re great in all you do Mike and that was a very entertaining story (terrifying for you I’m sure) about your trip to Cape Town!
I live in Cape Town and I’m from the Cape Flats which is the most dangerous part of the city - if you ever come back and want a proper guided tour, let me know 😉👍🏽
I like how he just gets to the point of the story. No bs
You TOTALLY deserved the click on the like button...... Wow......had something similar but a much smaller scale.....brought it all back...... Made me feel better about having it away on my toes.... 👍 Thank you
I am from New Orleans and enjoyed your N. O. story. This was a good story as well. Good Luck and be safe. Thanks
What a story! Thanks God you survived🙏🏾
Broooooo it’s true what they say, the Count is indeed a legend, I’m from Cape Town but live in Rocklands Mitchell’s Plain but yah let me tell you bud it’s always been bad here. Glad you made it out safe though👍
Ey that's a dangerous area man - must've seen some shit!
He was in town. Just being dramatic lol.
Your mums a poos !
Best story I have heard in my entire life. Probably better than those childhood horror stories.
love ya attitude mike! keep up that good work
Mmm. Love that background color combination. BTW, I've seen Warrior, it's a pretty cool show.
I would like to apologise on behalf of all south africans and cape tonians
Thank you kind sir 🤣
What that they didn't clean that dump up before the great Bisbing showed up!?

Much love from Cape Town Bisping🇿🇦❤️
Hopefully UFC comes this way soon !!
I’d hate to be White and live in South Africa, sounds like a nightmare.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Michael bisping. Glad you got away, god don't give people anything they can't bare.
Great one ☝🏼
I can listen to Michael tell stories all day. What a funny man.
I have lived in South Africa all my life and it can be dangerous, especially to the uninformed. For the most part the criminal element are cowards and will always use a blitz attack to catch you off gaurd. As a biker I'm constantly aware of my surrounds because it literally could be life or death.
Glad you survived my beautiful country, and I'm sure you will agree, you have to be tough to live in Africa.😀
The smell them out out here in the Street of cape Town like eats
Having survived a few blitz attacks myself I can attest. The thing is that living here in South Africa you are always aware and always ready. Like you state Stan, people who are not use to the environment here will stand out like a sore thumb. They in effect make themselves a target even more so than your normal South African. Walking around at 2AM looking at you phone acting like your lost, not the best idea. So to anyone reading this, in South Africa, never look like you are not in control or lost especially at night.
I will never go to Africa
@@JohnCenaFan6298 you are missing out just don’t be a stupid tourist and you wil be fine
Tough or just stupid
