I learned of that a few minutes ago, he came into metal after running into Black Sabbath, I read.

Is this well known, or I have been living a big rock (small rock right now)?

Too late today, but I want to hear some tomorrow.

Written as quite a gentleman as well.

Yeah, I've known about that for a while. Long before he died. Never listened to any of his stuff, though... I kinda forgot about it until now.

Makes sense. Who's more heavy metal than him?

Yeah, he was pretty badass.. I don't know about all of those items listed, but I know most of them are true. He did work for British Intelligence, and had quite an interesting background. I don't know about literal Nazi hunting, but I wouldn't doubt it. :)

[edit]

Just listened to that song... It's kinda "meh", but I give him props for being like 90 years old at the time. :D

I thought Lee was also in the famous cybernauts avengers episode. Turns out it was Peter cushing.
Lee was in a different avengers episode where they had robots. More bad ass

Then there was this. The man was hard core.

https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/h ... story.html

"According to the video, Jackson was blocking a scene in which Wormtongue (Brad Dourif) stabs Saruman (Lee) in the back. Jackson goes into a long explanation about how he wants Lee to react and Lee says, 'Have you any idea what kind of noise happens when somebody’s stabbed in the back? Because I do.'"
