Joe Rogan threatened a member of the crowd with Dan Henderson

During a comedy set, Joe Rogan was getting increasingly frustrated with a vocal member of the crowd.

Growing tired of the spectator, the American threatened to give him a rude awakening in the form of an ex-Pride champion.

On an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience from 2013, the broadcaster said: “My favorite Dan Henderson story — we were in Caroline’s Comedy club in New York, and there was this guy who was heckling, he wouldn’t shut the f— up.

“I go, ‘Listen man, if you don’t shut the f— up, I’m going to have Dan Henderson come over here and hold you down’. The crowd went wild.

“Dan goes, ‘Why would I hold him down when I can just stare him down’?”
