Elvis Presley fired several of his longtime bodyguards, known as the “Memphis Mafia,” in July 1976, just over a year before his death. The three most notable firings were Red West, Sonny West, and Dave Hebler. Reasons for the Firings: 1. Concerns About Violence • Red and Sonny West had a reputation for using excessive force when dealing with fans and security threats. • Elvis’s father, Vernon Presley, who handled his finances, was worried about potential lawsuits and wanted to avoid legal trouble. 2. Financial Cutbacks • Vernon Presley was trying to cut expenses because Elvis’s lavish lifestyle was draining his finances. • The salaries of longtime employees, including bodyguards, were seen as an area where savings could be made. 3. Elvis’s Prescription Drug Use • Some reports suggest that Red, Sonny, and Dave had tried to intervene in Elvis’s worsening prescription drug abuse. • Their attempts to help may have angered Vernon or Elvis, contributing to their dismissal. 4. Tension Within the Group • After years of loyalty, some bodyguards felt underappreciated, and conflicts had developed within the inner circle. Aftermath: • Feeling betrayed, Red and Sonny West, along with Dave Hebler, wrote the book Elvis: What Happened?, published just two weeks before Elvis’s death in August 1977. • The book exposed Elvis’s prescription drug addiction, which shocked many fans. • Elvis was reportedly devastated by the book’s publication. Did Elvis Personally Fire Them? While the official decision was made by Vernon Presley, it’s unclear how much input Elvis had. Some reports claim he was reluctant to let them go but did not stop it from happening.

Chuck Norris holds a higher dan rank than Dave Hebler. • Chuck Norris is a 10th-degree black belt (10th Dan) in Chun Kuk Do, a martial art he founded. He also holds high ranks in multiple other disciplines, including 9th Dan in Tang Soo Do, 8th Dan in Taekwondo, and 5th Dan in Karate. • Dave Hebler is best known as Elvis Presley’s bodyguard and a martial artist specializing in Kenpo Karate. While he is highly skilled, his documented rank in Kenpo is 8th-degree black belt (8th Dan). Who ranks higher? Since 10th Dan is the highest achievable rank in most martial arts, Chuck Norris has the higher dan rank overall.

Hi Spa Guy and Trey, Wow what can I say... I wish I could climb into my computer screen and come out out facing you guys with Chuck Norris!! Walker Texas Ranger is just amazing I've seen every show over here in the UK I would love to meet him but London's a long way to come from America. Where was your report filmed? Great to see how real stars treat their fans.

I love Chuck Norris. In fact, I take his morning kick every morning. It's been a game-changer. I wish Mr. Norris remembered the details on Elvis, I'm almost positive he went to a concert in the 70s. I know Mr. Norris and Elvis had some of the same friends or at least knew some of the same people. I would be interested in knowing what kind of impact Mr. Norris might have had on Elvis. Nice video!
