Anyone Watch “The Unit” Tuesday Night?

Thursday, November 1st, 2007 | Science |

Man, that guest star special agent had a hella bad case of cauliflower ear. The director tried to keep it out of the frame, with limited sucess.

Comparing his ear to other actors ears on the show made me realize something, though. Even regular ears look pretty weird. If they were any stranger looking we’d start having sex with them.

Until I looked up the Wikipedia entry for cauliflower ear I didn’t realize it came from injuries. I always thought it was genetic.

UPDATE: In comments people are telling me the guest star was pro fighter Randy Couture. I’m impressed. I thought the guy was a professional actor. I would never have guessed he was an athlete doing a turn as an actor.

Yeah, he’s one of them “extreme fighter” dudes.

Don’t make fun of his ears….

That was Randy Couture, the UFC heavyweight and former light heavyweight champion. I love that show.

Back in the old days it was just boxers who got it and they usually had to be kinda old - nowdays everything is so accellerated. Wonder what they call the nose-effect - broccoli nose?

Good catch, y’all. He did a mighty good job on “The Unit.” I never would have guessed he wasn’t a professional actor.
