| I got this off of another board...
Tony Iommi can play louder than MANOWAR with an acoustic guitar.
Never say Tony Iommi's name three times in front of a mirror or else the ghosts of his severed fingers will appear to poke you for eternity.
Tony Iommi let two of his fingers being cut off because becoming a guitar legend with ten fingers was just too easy.
God said: “Let there be light.”
Chuck Norris answered: “Say please.”
And Tony Iommi said: “Oh, shut up you both!”
Tony Iommi has never been allowed to become a professional boxer because he didn't fit in any of the weight categories. No one's as heavy as Tony Iommi.
The two severed tips of Tony Iommi’s fingers grew up to be Dave Mustaine and Kirk Hammett.
You can’t measure Tony Iommi’s power in decibels. You have to use Richter’s scale.
Before telling Tony Iommi his guitar was slightly out of tune, Ronnie James Dio was seven feet tall. | |

| The Chuck Norris ones got old, so it's good to see new ones about Iommi.  | |

In an industrial accident at the age of 17 on his last day of work in a sheet metal factory, he lost the tips of the middle and ring finger of his right hand. | |

Yup. Melted plastic bottle caps then covered them in leather. Probably uses something a little more professional these days, but that was pretty darn metal.
