Taken 3 star Liam Neeson leaves creepy Taken 'I will find you and I will kill you' voicemail messages and has revealed that he didn't want to do another Taken movie "if someone got taken"... because "no one gets taken three times." But! Is the current preeminent movie tough guys in Hollywood tough enough to take down The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon in a friendly bout of arm wrestling? The action star laughed at the challenge, and it turns out the Irish superstar also likes to yell out what he's going to do when he wins during physical altercations. Read on to find out what happened.

Chatting to Fallon, Neeson revealed that he told Taken 3 director Luc Besson that he "wouldn't do" the third Taken, "if someone got taken."
"I mean," he grinned, "it's insulting to the audience, we've done it twice; no one gets taken three times."
But most importantly, is he going to be on a cell phone in the movie? "Yes," grins Neeson. So... how often does he get to do the classic Taken line 'I will find you, and I will kill you'? "When the first one came out," Neeson grins, "if I had 25 cents for every time i left a message for one of my son's friends, I'd be quite wealthy."
Watch the rest of the clip below:
Neeson also chatted about the time he hit a deer while on his Harley Davidson - where he broke his pelvis in two places. "It was scary," he admitted. "I mean, I was on this Harley Davidson going 26 miles an hour."
"Did you bruise the deer at all?" asked Fallon.
"The deer came out and was like 'Hey, watch it buddy!'"
Watch below to find out what happened when he was treated by paramedics.
The highlight of the show, however, came when Neeson engaged Fallon in a bout of arm wrestling, while the two listed off the things they were going to do when they won.
Some highlights included Fallon saying "After I win, I'm going to get a tattoo on my lower back that says: 'Better ingredients, better pizza, Papa John's.'"
Neeson offered: "After I win, I'm gonna find 100 Jimmy Fallon lookalikes, put them in a room together and throw you the world's creepiest surprise party."
The best, though? Neeson saying: "After I win, I'm going to pick up a phone like I do in the movie Taken, and say 'I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you'. Except this time, I'll be talking to Waldo."
Check out the excellent segment below... and keep an eye out for the interesting (on purpose?) tiny hint of a Liam Neeson stutter in there.
