In the 1980s, Frank Dux, a martial arts expert and former CIA operative-turned LA martial arts instructor successfully sold the story of his life to a movie studio in order to the get the movie "Bloodsport" made. The movie effectively jumpstarted the career of its star, Jean-Claude Van Damme. It wasn't until years later that we found out that none of his story was actually true.
