LeBell, who was a past president of the guild, went to Seagal and called him on it.
Having said that it is my belief that Gene has a incredible amount of knowledge in his brain, but at least half of his tech (if not more) is based on the sheer power that he alone has.
Lebelle he " makes all his money by looseing" (in movies) and is happy with the knowledge that really only one man ever truly beat him.

 Aikido Shobukan Dojo
Written by a national AAU judo champion, Gene LeBell, and by the chairman of judo for the Southern Pacific Association of the AAU, L.C. Coughran, it presents in easy-to-follow text, illustrated with more than 380 photographs, those techniques which these winners have found to work best in actual competition.
Each and every one of these elements is fully covered by Gene LeBell and L.C. Coughran in a book written "on the mat"-not to reflect Japanese culture nor American awe of an oriental art, but to present methods which lead to winning competitive judo and to adequate self defense.
Both Gene LeBell and L.C. Coughran are holders of the coveted "Back Belt" (judo's highest award) and both are well known in the field as expert instructors.

I am 5' 7", and as I remember Gene had several inches on me, or maybe not,it was after all some 35 years ago, it was not that he was tall, he was muscular, he was like a fire plug, he was just plan strong.
