From a recent interview with highsnobsociety.com :
How and why did you first get involved in judo?
A friend of my parents suggested it since my mother was against me being a boxer like my father. I went to a class to see it, and I liked it right away. That was in 1979.
What about bodyguarding?
I started in the German army. At the time it was mandadory to enlist in Germany and I thought it was a good idea to do something for your country.
