[@JazzFunkNobby1964]

Imagine leaving London as a fifteen year old kid and travelling to Japan on your own to study Judo for two years. That's what I call an adventure of a lifetime.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Well said mate

[@glennthompson1971]

I got into judo aged 8 because of watching brian jacks.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

He's a smashing guy

[@mothman411]

Loved Superstars, he is an absolute childhood hero of mine. Thank you for sharing this.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Such a nice guy as well

[@officialeventphotographer]

Brian was a Machine on the Superstars Contest!

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Totally!

[@hagar6359]

yes i remember him very well on Superstars. He was unbeatable on dips.

[@petebeckham8562]

The man is an icon. Total respect and no airs or graces, just a solid, genuine East End bloke. I've met him once, very approachable and has time for everyone. True Gent. Brian was the only reason kids like me tuned into SuperStars, it was essential viewing, we wanted to see who he would beat every week!

[@Buzzinpattaya]

100% agreed, a very nice guy

[@lenchannon]

Still remember him on superstars when I was only 5 years old and he was one of my favourites on there. Top bloke.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Agreed

[@sintalentoful]

What a great competitor and a really, really nice man. My Sensei at Orpington in the late 80's - one day I took my young nephew along to the club and Brian was so kind practising with him and signed his Gi (which I had embroidered). Pattaya sounds like a place to visit once this lockdown stuff is done....

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Lovely guy for sure

[@dayanford1115]

Fantastic interview with a man that I and many others idolised growing up in the UK. I cant wait for part 2.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thank you, Pt 2 Saturday, yeah he was great to talk to

[@rajinderbisessar4218]

Brian is a realy nice man ( i'm from Holland). I'ved stayed in his appartment. He took me out make me see Pattaya...a realy nice man

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thanks for sharing!

[@brendanduffy2367]

Fantastic interview I met Brian once he was having pie and mash in soi Diana a top bloke and he still looks as fit as a fiddle, looking forward to seeing part 2😎👌💪💪

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thank you, yeah he is in great shape

[@chrisfinn7907]

Trev - For me this is the best coffee chat you have done to date by a country mile.. great interview...watched it twice..I remember Brian winning the Olympic Judo Bronze in Munich and then watching him on Superstars and smashing the dips and squats out for fun, not just once but year after year. At that time I could manage 4 dips until I joined the Army and then managed 5 ! 🤣🤣 Must say he still looks good. Guessing he's about 75 now ? Looking forward to part 2 Thanks Trev 😀

[@Buzzinpattaya]

hahaha glad you enjoyed it mate, he was such a nice guy

[@neonvandal8770]

I have a photo of Brian Jacks and myself on my mums wall from the Superstars/Superkids competition from about 1981. Great bloke 👏

[@Buzzinpattaya]

fantastic mate fair play

[@johncarlo7395]

I was born the same year as Brian Jacks and started Judo in my thirties I got to 1st Dan, I never got to Brian's standards, but I would have loved to have been on the mat with Brian as long as he took it easy on me, what a legend, my all time hero

[@Buzzinpattaya]

That's a really good level mate fair play

[@markr7078]

One word for that man. "Legend" . . Always admired him growing up. . Superstars was a must on t.v. . Good memories :-)

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Agreed!

[@jimm5122]

Enjoyed that interview Trev.. Good bloke Brian..Had beers down soi 7 & 8 many years ago with him and his son..

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Very nice guy

[@Gary_sub3marathoner]

Having watched your videos for the last 6 months or so, I decided to look at some of your previous stuff. I had to watch this one, I saw the ones with Brian an 2 other guys earlier in the year. What a legend! You have lost some weight since this video too, kudos.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thank you mate I'm glad you enjoy the channel

[@sdone7672]

Great interview!! didn't have you down as old enough to be watching ''Superstars" as it started in 73.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thank you, yeah he won it in 79, I was 12 then haha

[@mrben178]

Fantastic story, what a guy.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Lovely girl

[@nicholasarcher2503]

Great interview, can't wait to see part 2. Brian Jacks really was/ is a superstar and a man i would love to meet, comes across as a "PROPER" bloke as well which is no surprise

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Yeah he was so genuine and talked openly. Pt 2 Saturday

[@andysmith9786]

More interviews like this with interesting people that have some good stories and what eventually led them to live in Thailand........ Cheers

[@Buzzinpattaya]

For sure, it is on our schedule for the start of 2021, glad you enjoyed it

[@MartynJohnson-y4d]

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Agreed, lovely guy

[@Jazz_Funk_Kitten]

My grandad and Brian’s dad trained in Judo together. Then Brian and my dad trained together at The Budokwai. I then trained at Brian’s judo school alongside his son Philip. And now, my 7-year old son is studying Kung Fu, so one day he can wear his great-grandfathers black belt.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Nice one mate

[@blacklit9882]

I met him a couple of times even playfights with him as a kid back in the 80s. Always wonder why KZbin has no footage of his fights?

[@jodycanfield6684]

Imagine thinking he's just an "old man, no threat!" and you wake up later that night with a knot on your head! 🤣

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Too many people think age is important....go tell Roy Jones Jr and Iron Mike that lol.....

[@sabaisabai8895]

Thanks.I really enjoyed that.What a nice humble man.Looking forward ti the 2nd part.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Yeah he was awesome

[@paulscott3022]

Years ago he came to our golf club as a guests, he strutted around like he owned the place. His attitude was...look who I am. Talk about being so far up his own backside. He was a arrogant bombastic individual who loved himself that’s for sure.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

All I can say is he was a pleasure to be with in this interview, maybe he was just having a bad day..... shame as he appeared to be a lovely guy from the little time I spent with him.

[@สมชายใหญ่เสมอ-ฝ2ฤ]

Paul scott.i was there and Brian was a Gentleman,you must have been very pissed Buddy !!

[@NameName-do9hj]

My daughter does judo BJJ MMA and wrestling she is only 13 and fighting for 3 years and only last week won her first BJJ competition she was chuffed to see this interview as she has watched and studied his fights for years What a champion this man is :) She asked if you ever talk to him again to thank him because she learnt alot from watching him :) I hope next time the kids come to Pattaya she gets to meet one of her hero's Wow that was a suprise video and thanks from the hole family :)

I’ve played golf with Brian a few times, a lovely guy.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Very nice guy indeed

[@catchbay]

Checked from wikipedia (Judo/Europe/Finland) if I remember correct - seems that I still do. When I was junior I advanced to yellow belt with two dan - those are red stripes but called dan at here as wikipedia says. I quitted for a reasons but one of the last match which I made, I can remember it still like yesterday - I sweeped the legs and took the hold. Probably 10 seconds + the wait time before it was called over. That was 35 years ago... (edited): probably the belt was white + two dan. There was discussion how to color the belt to yellow. Need to check it out next time when visiting my parents.... and nobody cares :-)
