He went on to become the first Glock Grand Master shooter in the history of the sport and has won many other competitions and titles in his career.
In 2011, Butler appeared as a trainer in the second and third season of History Channel’s marksmen competition show, Top Shot.

Buckle your seat belts because Taran doesn’t hold anything back in this episode. He tells about the crazy competitions he’s won, friends he’s made a long the way and what it’s like working with A listers in Hollywood. Taran uses a ton of profanity so if you have kids in the car you may want to cover their ears.

#29 Bedros Keuilian- Founder of the World's Fastest Growing Fitness Franchise
Today on What Got You There Sean talks with Bedros Keuilian, the founder of Fit Body Boot Camp, which is currently the world’s fastest growing fitness chain. Bedros practices what he preaches, implementing the same formula for success that he brings to his fitness clients worldwide. Fit Body was recently listed as one of Inc. 5000’s fastest growing businesses of 2016.
Before becoming the industry icon that he is today, Bedros faced a wave of obstacles in his life. As a child, he immigrated to America with his family. He didn’t understand English, and his family barely scrapped together enough to eat on a daily basis.
If there’s one statement that summarizes Bedros Keuilian, it’s that he absolutely loves his work. That passion bleeds into everything he does, from his training seminars to the books he writes. Bedros knocks it out of the park on this episode of What Got You There.
