Before his career as a wrestler, Nathan Jones was sentenced to 16 years in Boggo Road Gaol for eight armed robberies between 1985-1987, two of them in Tasmania. During the robberies, he became one of Australia's most wanted. He ended up serving seven years in a maximum-security prison and one year on work release. While in prison, he was introduced to the sport of powerlifting. Within a short space of time, Nathan became the National Powerlifting Champion of Australia.

Nathan also began competing in strongman contests. On the strongman circuit, he was dubbed The Megaman for his imposing physique. As the reigning Australia's Strongest Man, he entered the World Strength Championship at Callander, Scotland on July 29-30, 1995. He took first place, topping a field that included 1993 World's Strongest Man Gary Taylor. The following weekend, he competed in the World Musclepower Championship held at Mintlaw, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. That contest was won by Magnús Ver Magnússon, with Nathan finishing fifth in a field of twelve competitors.

Jones is probably the most famous non-thai actor working in the Thai movie industry. I wont list his work, it is on IMDB.

Not to be confused with the other big action/actor lad in Thailand, Conan Stevens.

He's probably just a friendly kind of chap, defending innocent Thai girls...
