The Epic Facial Hair of History

Recommended Posts

This started listening to Aaron Rodgers' weekly radio show and talking about mustaches. Aaron brought up how awesome of a stache Sam Elliot had, which made me think about bad ass actors... Which led me to the IP Chat, which then generated conversation on some of the most epic facial hair in the history of the world.

 

Due to the natural course of evolution, I now open up the discussion to you. Who has the most epic facial hair ever?! The choice is YOURS!

Like I said in the chat, Ambrose Burnside had something going on but I don't even know what you would call it.

 

There's a lot of awesome civil war beards. WB Hazen, Alpheus Willams, JEB Stuart

Honestly. I can't think of facial hair any more iconic than Abe Lincoln's beard and none more infamous than Hitler's mustache.

Dan Haggerty.

 

The dude raised a black bear for his families wild animal attraction, then ended up starring in the Grizzly Adams TV show and movies, which were based on a man that raised grizzly bears and other wild animals for circuses and various animal attractions. He's also a gourmet chef and builds custom motorcycles.

Can't argue with Jamey Johnson and his beard.

Just cause Bin Laden is a bad guy doesn't make his facial hair any less infamous. Add Stalin and Hussein to the mix of infamous dictators/ bad guys with iconic facial hair as well.

 

Here's one of my favorites that's, you know, not a bad guy:

Whatever happened to the style to grow out your sideburns to some crazy length and then connect them with a mustache. We need to bring that back.

Bin Laden had a famous (infamous?) beard, but I am not one to say that it was technically great.

That's obviously fake, but did Rivers ever actually have a beard?
