Flash Podcast: Former bodyguard Roman Anton spoke about working for Jackson or Gott
Former bodyguard Roman Anton can say with a calm heart that he saw the best and worst of the 1990s. He originally wanted to embark on an emerging Rapid URNA Unit, but eventually decided to become a bodyguard. He took several courses, improved his English and did his job so well that he was approached by various celebrities, businessmen, politicians and even people we consider mafia today. But before he nodded at their offer, he studied them.
“I was based on what the client was willing to tell me. Although it wasn’t always true. I knew people who were somehow commercially influential and had information at the time. So I was able to come to them and ask questions. Nevertheless, it happened to me that I accepted a job for a client who was on the edge of the law or behind it, “Anton admitted. He allegedly tried to terminate the contract with such people.
Cruise with Arnold
The former bodyguard, on the other hand, is proud to have been able to guard Tina Turner or Arnold Schwarzengger, who was his great role model. In August 1996, a bodybuilder and an American actor arrived in the capital. Anton was lucky as an American actor and spent an hour and a half on a boat on the Vltava, guarding him during a photo shoot. During this time, they talked. “Arnold was very shared and communicative. To this day, he is very funny and fun for everyone. He told us how to train, and I told him where to buy good cigars. He then recommended a restaurant in Kitzbühl to me, “Anton recalled one of the best bodyguards during his career.
Hit your Jackson
The laziest moments for the bodyguard occurred when he guarded King of Pop Michael Jackson the same year. Fans were so eager for the American singer that Anton tore two suits in eight days to get to Jackson. The team around Jackson demanded that the bodyguards carry firearms, even though he was in potential danger from various groups.

“There were already huge crowds at the airport and the people were fanatical. They fell under our car and we had to lift them. We cannot yet consider this an attack or a manifestation of aggression, however as soon as we arrived at the hotel, we were instructed to take up arms“Anton said. The police allegedly had indications that an anarchist group had formed, which announced the “Hit Your Jackson” manifesto. In the end, they needed no weapons and protected the star’s privacy.
Gott having live sex
One of the most bizarre places Roman Anton got to as a private protector was a striptease bar with Karl Gott. There was also a live show within the club, where first two women performed sexual practices, which were replaced by a couple: “With a person of this format, you don’t want to be in this place at all. I had the feeling that he wanted to leave after half an hour, but because he was empathetic and communicative with his companions, he stayed, “Anton described his impressions of the visit. Still, he doesn’t want to condemn Gott. According to him, the singer had a lot of interests and enjoyed life as he saw fit.
He told the Lightning Podcast:
