Jacob Surjan - little known facts.

Jacob Surjan was the inspiration for the character of Mitch Buchanan in Baywatch. He was also the inspiration for the character of Dutch in Predator.

Adapted for a London location, Charles Dickens' "Oliver Twist" was based on the early life of Jacob Surjan. Jacob is very proud of this, but doesn't like the musical adaptation as singing and prancing about is stricly for ponces.

Jacob Surjan lost both his legs to an anti-personnel mine in the second world war. He had two right legs sown back on, hence his ability to use both feet equally well.

In the round 14 win over Brisbane at AAMI Stadium, Jacob Surjan told Jonathan Brown to his face that he was 'a bit gay'. Brown promptly agreed, apologised, and left the field.

Jacob Surjan powers all lighting in and around AAMI stadium by using his own cycle-generator at half time.

The reason Han Solo didn't reply with "I love you too" to Leia at the end of Empire Strikes Back is because he was really in love with Jacob Surjan.

At the age of 3 Jacob Surjan became the youngest ever winner of the Paris-Dakar Rally in a 1966 Ford Bronco. Made more remarkable by the fact that it broke down 3km from the start and he pushed it the rest of the way.

Most of these are stolen.

Re: Jacob Surjan - little known facts.

Last week for the jumper unveiling Jacob donned the Back in Black strip and raidiated sheer brutality, injuring several club officials. This is why we saw him in the clash - I assume shades will be included in all Membership packages for our protection come Round one

Michelle Chantelois was invited into Mike Rann's office only after Jacob rejected the Premiers invitation.

Surj is a latter Brett Montgomery, wandering in the wilderness looking for his own version of the squealer to pummel.
