Amazing that this film has turned up after 35 years… Elvis wearing a turban in this footage from a visit to Dave Hebler's karate studio in California in ’72.

Wow, that was nice to see. I wonder how much similar footage is out there that's not been seen in public.

So why was Elvis wearing a turban? I think I've read the explanation before, but can't recall.

He hoped to convince The Colonel to book him for a sequel to Harum scarum.

Sorry guys but can not help to think that our man looks a little like footage you expect from Osama bin Laden, sitting in a corner with his turban... I rather see some EOT discovered. This clip I can easily live without, but thanks for sharing!

What's the exact date of this footage and pictures?
He looks bad for 1972...
When i first saw the first photo i thought that it's from 1976. I think he was sick and/or stoned on that day.

I sent the footage to Dave Hebler who replied that he hadn't seen it before. "Fun days", as he said...
