Met him once through a friend (Johnny) who runs a Comic-Con in Texas. Danny was the most down to earth and genuinely friendly celebrity I've ever encountered. Everyone had questions or wanted to talk to him about his career, and all he wanted to do was ask people about their lives, or how they were doing. He genuinely gave a shit about what they said, he listened. Ended up going to dinner with "us" (with Johnny ofc, bc he was the host). Celebrity or not, he's a good man and it's not an act; this video does an excellent job of showing that.

I just didn't learn until years after the fact that Danny Trejo was the voice behind Lor Sam Pau for the English dub because I was old enough to recognize his voice after having watched the film again in the early 90s, and had one of those "Hey! That's______!" moments...lol

Great Video! The first time Danny Trejo got on my radar was in an episode of NCIS: Los Angeles as Tuhon. Learned a bit about him and he most certainly has an iconic story to share with the world! One thing that "Tuhon" said in the episode was "If it isn't a first edition it isn't worth reading", that stuck with me to this day I go for the first editions (when possible). The first series I had already read and tracked down were the first editions of the Chronicles of Dune by Frank Herbert, the first four books of the series (and including an encyclopedia that depicts the long chronology of Dune).

Danny Trejo's story is extremely relatable to me, as a recovering addict who also spent years on the wrong side of the law and eventually ended up in prison before finally straightening my life up. The fact is that our mistakes and trials CAN be turned to a positive, and those experiences can be used to help others in similar situations. Honestly I don't regret any of it, despite all of the tremendous pain I've caused and endured, but it has made me into the man I am today -- with drive, ambition, character, integrity, and wisdom. It's never too late to change your life -- just takes hard work and one step at a time.

"I can dream now and it's OK!" Beautiful story telling! Uplifting! From the depths of his hard knocks life, he rises above and focusses on doing good to others. The people he helps now can focus on the prospect of "....being able to dream ... ....and those dreams are OK"

In my life...in my personal experience, sometimes you have to go to really dark fucking places to appreciate the beauty and satisfaction of being selfless. I think some of the most kind and loving people I know are a testament to that.

GREAT VIDEO !!! I spent 4 years in prison and I can remember them making us watch these videos on how to adjust to life outside prison, and Danny would be the one in the videos, talking at different prisons. He treated all the inmates like they where human. That's a far cry different than the guards do..

Had the honor of briefly meeting Mr.Trejo. My first impression that I found of him being a very down to earth well rounded and very wise man, he has a remarkable insightfulness about him. Though our conversation was brief I could only imagine how interesting it would be to sit down with him and listen to him talk. Dan's as suave as they come, a really outspoken individual.

At 6:24 Danny says, "A couple of drops off his cotton". That means the cotton ball "Uncle Gilbert" used to strain his cooked heroin still had a few drops of heroin in it. Gilbert then turned Danny on to it. This videos says, "Contin". People are going to confuse "Cotton" with "Contin". Oxycontin was not invented until 1996. I don't want that to throw people off. Just thought I'd clarify.
