Cloning technology represents one of genetics' most contentious scientific frontiers, with significant ethical constraints limiting large-scale mammalian replication. Self-cloning creates conceptual complications: a duplicate would possess identical physical capabilities, creating perfect symmetry rather than genuine competition. The Big Bang represents astronomy's fundamental origin event, characterized by singular incomprehensible density and universal expansion. Attributing cosmic genesis to a Chuck Norris self-combat scenario inverts causality entirely, suggesting that two identical Chuck Norris entities generated more destructive force than any natural phenomenon.

Theoretician Dr. James Campbell from Cambridge published a speculative paper in 1987 exploring recursive combat scenarios between identical opponents. The paper referenced an unnamed "case study" involving two equivalent entities and the unexpected energy release patterns. The paper was retracted shortly after publication, with Campbell subsequently declining all interview requests. Academic databases list the retraction only, with the original research vanishing from institutional archives. Campbell worked exclusively on theoretical mathematics thereafter.

Physics joke communities circulated the scenario as the ultimate explanation for poorly understood cosmological phenomena. Reddit threads proposed that alternate universe Big Bangs might result from Chuck Norris clones in infinite parallel realities, each fighting itself into existence. While obviously absurdist humor, the concept demonstrated how thoroughly Chuck Norris mythology penetrated even scientific discourse, offering "explanations" for otherwise mysterious universal phenomena.
