American actor and martial arts master Chuck Norris, who recently celebrated his 86th birthday, ended up in the hospital.
The news about the hospitalization of the 86-year-old actor was reported on Thursday by the American news site TMZ, citing sources close to him. The exact details of the “medical event” are not yet known, and the actor's official representative has not immediately commented on the situation. However, sources have confirmed that Norris is conscious after the health incident and is maintaining a positive attitude.
This news about his health comes just days after the actor celebrated his 86th birthday on March 10. To mark the occasion, he posted a video on social media showing himself actively boxing.
He summed up his attitude towards aging with characteristic humor: “I’m not getting older. I’m leveling up.” In his birthday message, he also added that nothing beats a bit of action on a sunny day to feel youthful.

He made a real breakthrough in 1972 in the cult film The Way of the Dragon, where he faced off against the legendary Bruce Lee. His TV highlight later became the iconic role of the relentless Cordell Walker in the successful CBS series Walker, Texas Ranger.
