Scott Eastwood on Paul Walker Introducing Him to Jiu Jitsu- The Joe Rogan Experience

Hello freak bitches. I grew up also as a surfer. You know, growing up surfing and so there's definitely a pecking order and a respect there that you have to learn. Or you're going to learn the hard way. And that's, I think that was a good thing, you know, ultimately because it kind of humbles you and makes you know your place. Which is good. Did you start training Jujitsu there? I started, you know, actually one of my good buddies who passed away, Paul Walker, got me into Jujitsu. He got me about six years ago. Maybe more now. Yeah, he was like a purple belt, right? Or a brown belt or something? Yeah, he was a brown belt when he died. And so yeah, he was, I mean, he was, you know, die hard. I mean, he had a place in Hawaii actually and he would go get mats and he would get his place outfitted so he could practice at home. And he got me involved. And that's another thing that's great about over there is like you really realize, like obviously you know, Jits is like the ultimate humbling, you know, for people. Especially for, you know, I think for men carry a lot of ego around or carry a lot of, you know, I think as men we're trying to figure out who we are, especially when we're young. It really calms your ego down because you always know, you know, I'm going to choke some people out and people are going to choke me out. And it's just no matter what level you're at. You also get it out of your system. Like the one big part of what men do, they puff their chest up, is they want to prove themselves and they haven't yet. And they don't know. And so they want to like put up this air like there's some bad motherfucker because they're insecure. They don't know. And once you've done it a bunch of times and, you know, trained for a few years, it just it all calms down. Yeah. You notice like all the all the guys who do it consistently or the high level guys just so calm. Yeah. So calm. And that's actually one thing I noticed about Cameron too. He's like he's a calm motherfucker because he spends a lot of time out in the wilderness. And I think that has a big, you know, with the world we live in now today. Yeah. Yeah. And we talked about we talked about this some some of the experiences, the stressful experiences and the hard. I mean, life here is never hard, really. The challenges we face in the regular everyday. Sometimes you have traffic, dude. Sometimes the line at Starbucks is huge. I know that. That's hard. OK. So aside from that, it is tough. It's both cam with a K. Right. But so, I mean, it puts it in perspective. It's just kind of like what you're saying. But yeah, you need experiences like that. Just you kind of simulate those and train or and, you know, the hunts that I do or the races that I do. And it keeps it in perspective. So you don't get wound up over the little stuff. It's like no biggie.
