Jack Bauer vs. Chuck Norris.

"Some consider it The Ultimate Question of Our Time. No, not "Is there life on other planets?" or "Could God microwave a burrito so hot that even he could not eat it?" The real question is: Who's superior, Chuck Norris or Jack Bauer?

In searching for the answer to The Ultimate Question, let´s compare the two giants across five categories.

1. Highest Pain Threshold
On 24, Jack Bauer has been tortured, shot, and temporarily killed. In each case, he's come through like a champ. On the other hand, Chuck Norris doesn't feel pain.

Advantage: Chuck

2. Most Lethal
Sorry, this category was patently unfair.

Advantage: Chuck

3. Most Realistic
Jack Bauer is a fictional character who routinely overcomes impossible odds, defies death at every turn, and has unworldly cellular reception. Unlike Jack, Chuck Norris is an actual person (or man-god, depending on your denomination). However, if you've ever seen Chuck fight or act, you know he's too good to be true. Unreal, even.

Advantage: Jack

4. Best Interpersonal Communicator
Jack Bauer:
[To Joseph Prado, after breaking every finger in his hand] This will help you with the pain. [Knocks him unconscious.]

Chuck Norris:
Criminal: Ranger, you screwed up! You forgot to read us our rights.
Ranger Cordell Walker: You're right! You have the right (kicks the criminal) to remain silent.

Advantage: Chuck

5. Best Random Fact
Jack Bauer: The city of Los Angeles once named a street after Jack Bauer in gratitude for his saving the city several times. They had to rename it after people kept dying when they tried to cross the street. No one crosses Jack Bauer and lives.

Chuck Norris: On the set of Walker, Texas Ranger, Chuck Norris brought a dying lamb back to life by nuzzling it with his beard. As the onlookers gathered, the lamb sprang to life. Chuck Norris then roundhouse-kicked it, killing it instantly. This was just to prove that the good Chuck giveth, and the good Chuck taketh away.

Advantage: Push

And there you have it, folks. 3-1-1, Chuck. Case closed".
