Bruce Lee. Real Fights and Dispelling Myths
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лют 2021
- 45 years after his death, Bruce is still recognized as the greatest martial artist in history and the mastermind behind a generation. To achieve so much, to rethink the genre of cinema and, in principle, to acquaint the mass audience with the true beauty and effectiveness of martial arts, and all this in 32 years of life, is truly incomprehensible...

Bruce you will always be remembered as a great Martial Artist. No matter what anyone says you inspired a lot of Martial artist. R.I.P.
well said and totally agree
As a young featherweight amateur boxer in the 1970's I went to the cinema to see Enter the Dragon. It changed my life forever. I watched in utter amazement at the speed and talent that Bruce Lee possessed in his repertoire . I actually incorporated some of his moves into my style. It helped me win many of my bouts. Like Bruce, I was a bit of a fitness freak and lived in the gym, I never drank or smoked and lived a clean life. I read many books to help me understand his philosophy. I was saddened to hear of his passing in 1974 at the height of his career. We never really got to see the greatness of the man, only glimpses. Bruce Lee left us with a legacy in history which I don't believe anyone can replicate.
I watch into the dragon love that picture
Movie illusions are bad
I saw Way of the dragon about 1976 it was on before a Clint Eastwood movie and my mind was blown.
1973
توفي عام 1973 وليس عام 1974
A legend plain and simple ! RIP Bruce Lee
Bruce Lee. His tenacity was astounding. A legend not forgotten. I was a fan of his since 13 years. And still am at 21 years.
Bruce Lee needs no exaggeration. He was legitimately an epic, legendary man. The facts surrounding his life and martial arts skills are all ya need. Great video!
His philosophy still lives today as a way to look inside oneself and extend the answer currently before him to the outside self in the form of physical power. His much remembered “Be like water my friend” is still as powerful today as it is was from the time he uttered it on a Hong Kong TV show. I enjoyed this look back at Bruce Lee and his Gung fu. Thank you very much for producing it.

One of the best karate fighters in the world ,I never miss any of His movies, sad that a world renowned young man died at the age of 32. Godbless his family.
Speed was everything like throwing a steel bow on a chain at someone not so much strength but more speed with projectile power.
A filipino by the name of trovador ramos, defeated bruce lee somewher in singapore in a match initiated by Bruce Lee, he lost twice to the filipino, but they became friends later on
I was brought to tears watching this - thank you! What a spiritual being.
I love Bruce Lee! He was our favorite 😍 ❤️ No one will ever replace him. He would be definitely someone I'd like to spot in the hereafter!
Besides Bruce's great movies, his philosophical discussions in interviews and his book Expressing the Human Body had powerful influences of my life ....... he was simply a humble training GENUIS.
Exactly.. he was a very wise man and very humble too..
I always believed you could get trained by the master, but if you ain't got speed that cant be tought, you either have it or you dont and that will be the difference between good and great.

A wonderful short lived gift to us.
I loved Bruce Lee and was inspired by him from early in my life. I approached my work ethic to his beliefs and teachings and it served me well. I even named my son after Bruce's son Brandon. He lives on and will forever be a legend for as long as humanity can continue. Rest in peace 🙏 Bruce.
Bruce lee had many real fights however street fights and much more vs the best fighters in his time. Bruce Lee won them all in few seconds in real fights.
see y vid Bruce Lee VS Pro Fighters He could beat us all We had no chance
respect bruce lee see y vid Extremely rare footage of bruce lee.
Oh gee john, that's so touching!. WOW!…what a brain wash!
Same here, John (hence my moniker). I was 13 when he passed. I started training due to his influence. I ended up with a blue belt in Shotokan but because of his influence and desire to keep learning I moved over to Kung Fu (Drunk, Wing Chun, Tiger). It is truly the way of the dragon.
@@Tom-em8yr You think may be he has a hard-on for Bruce *ALMIGHTY*
I was born two years before Bruce passed away, but once I found out about him when I was five years old, I consumed every minute of every project I could get my eyes on. To this day, if one of his movies is on I'll stop and watch it. I made sure my kids knew about him and watched his movies as well as videos like this one. This man is one of those legends that should never be lost to time.
I was born 7- 1/2 years before that little wimp bruce lee croaked and i hate every one of his cheesy cheap low budget wanna be movies. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA !
@@Tom-em8yr You just joined UA-cam in August and you're already a troll? Your parents failed you.
Nobody will replace Bruce , he was a true spirit of Martial Arts

So true Long live the Bruce
Beautiful story, beautiful life. Bruce will always be remembered. He's a Legend
I never get enough of Bruce Lee. More please.

@@jonesfredrick94 Saw and commented on a wonderful documentary about the influence of Lee and gung fu on the black community. Really glorious memories and revealing stories.
@@dingfeldersmurfalot4560 learn the influence Africa had on martial arts.
Yes
As a kid in the '70s I loved Bruce Lee. As an adult in the '20s I love Bruce Lee.
Bruce Lee , the fittest man that ever lived, imagine if he had been allowed to develop for another thirty years. R . I . P . Bruce , You will never bee forgotten.
how do you know?
he didn't live very long
Bruce Lee wouldn't have had 30 more years to develop. Biologically speaking, when Bruce died at the age of 32, he may have add another 10 to 15 years to continue to develop before biology took over and he started the slow decline that happens for all men. Even performance-enhancing drugs, or in Bruce's case, health supplements, can only help stop or slow the degeneration to a certain level, before age is too great a factor.
@scottnever8732 That wasn't the point. Had Lee lived longer, and the brain edema episode NOT have happened Lee would've definitely kept training , kept doing interviews blasting classical techniques which pissed some "masters" off. He would've most likely at some point got behind the camera because he already had Concord productions with Raymond Chow so he never had to sit by the phone waiting for an acting job. Since the brain edema did happen . If he lived after the second incident on July 20,1973, most likely he would have not been able to act or fight anymore and the way his personality was due to being highly active. He most likely would not have wanted to live that way not being able to do anything himself. He had stated he didn't want to be a helpless old man. Basically he lived and died the way he expected. Burning out rather than rusting out. Just saying.
@@americanosbadassius9292That would be one cause. But Bruce worked in an industry which had powerful people in charge. In their view, he overstepped his boundaries.
Bruce is the reason I became fascinated with martial arts in the first place. His style, his philosophy, his very way of being was nothing less than beautiful. If I was given the opportunity to resurrect one person from history.... It would be a hard choice between him and Christopher Hitchens but I believe I would take Bruce. Both great minds, both great thinkers. But I believe that Bruce has not only changed the world of martial arts but changed an entire way of thinking and to that effect the world is so much lesser without him. Rest in peace Bruce you will always have my love, admiration and respect.
Bruce wins hands down, his philosophy was real and I bet he would have been a world changer had he lived just a little longer
You "believe that Bruce has not only changed the world of martial arts but changed an entire way of thinking and to that effect the world is so much lesser without him"? How did he change marshal arts? In what way?
Bruce Lee is truly one of a kind. There will never be another one like him...EVER!
Some people shouldn't judge him, he was one of the most renowned human beings I've ever seen. HE'S AWESOME.
no people have the right to judge anyone at all, especially judges who are paid to do so off the backs of others hard work.
Bruce Lee will remain the legend he has always been. And even though I got to see most of his movies he has always been larger than life to us growing up in those days. Words cannot describe his greatness.
We love Bruce and miss him vastly!
Wow...what a man. I grew up with his movies and I have always been fascinated by this man's speed, and pretty much everything else about him too. Wow...what a man...they don't come like this anymore. Till today, there's nobody better than him. He is a legend and might have passed on, but he will never die! RIP Bruce
He’s a legend he will live forever in everybody’s heart
The first movie was enter the dragon and it will always be the most memorable movie I have ever seen . I was about 10 yrs old and after the movie was over and we left the theater everyone was imitating his moves we all thought we were Bruce for months after us kids were still doing the fight scenes and the iconic sound he would make when delivering a blow . It was so impactful to so many people from 3yr olds to 40yr olds . You would see them recreating fight scenes and it would real serious cause everyone wanted to be Bruce and no one wanted to be the opponent especially when it came to the final scenes of the movie with the levels on each floor and the top floor final fight it was epic . As I got older the movie took on a whole new meaning and realization of the wisdom., discipline,and how extraordinarily special and unique he was . There has never been another human being of his nature to exist and in my opinion never will. There is only one Bruce and the impact on so many millions of people in his short time on this earth continues today and will for eternity. R.i.p my brother.
I've been in a lot of fights and I know one person who could be faster than him, my mom she was 5,1 tall 130 pds.when 16 I thought I was too old to be hit with a belt so tried to take it away from her .I grabbed and jerked twice.She did not let go of the belt I saw her make a fist with right hand by her side and that's all I know .I was out cold and didn't see it at all l woke up in corner of the my room and she told me not to do that again and I didn't. I'm 64 now still trying to be as fast as her. 1974 my mom was 45 when she was coming out of the bathroom and she was hit in back of her head, My mom had two moves a punch to the gut and a upper cut to chin.the lady was 6feet tall she was flying in the air landing on a table broke it, everyone there said she was out before she hit the table and Mom was on her before she hit floor . That's powerful enough to left 200 pounds off floor in just a punch.
@@stephenhitchens1261 ya my mother was fast when she was dying from cancer inwas taking care of her and one night she was having a dementia moment screaming for her mom and saying they are trying to kill her and pounding on the window so I went over quickly to calm her down and in a blink of an eye she landed an uppercut to my nuts and dropped me instantly with blinding pain. God bless her and she is with the lord probably laughing with him about it. I laugh 😂 to.
Bruce Lee will always be my favorite martial artist who continues to inspire me. I'm 63 years old and still lives with Bruce Lee's moves.I was deeply sad when he left us.
Yes yes...i do like him very much too...
@Sub if you are against antifa and BLM if he grew up in the ufc Era he would have been able to learn and would be competitive at least.
Imagine if he was still alive I could still see him as being a badass MA action movie star at a old age ...

Amazing. ! Un Choc. !
@Sub if you are against antifa and BLM He was the one that paved the way for today's fighters. It was his philosophy that made him special. Ignorant comment.
No matter what people say negative about Bruce Lee, they will never change my mind about how great he was. I haven't seen anyone like him still to this day. Bruce contributed to my very first sprained ankle. I was such a fan that after I watch one of his movies when I was a kid, I jumped in the air and tried to do a flying kick and came down and twisted my ankle. Actually, I think I even sounded like him when the pain hit me, I yelled out a very piercing scream...lol
.
I'm with ya man I feel you
who has said something negative about B.l?
hollywood was understandably bigoted the he showed them that he could achieve more among his people(hong kong) never bitter over what he had faced.
😅😅😅😅 😂
Everything he accomplished at only 32 yrs of age
Bruce Lee's fighting techniques and styles are imitated all around the world by every martial artist or martial arts lover. Long live this legendary kunfu fighter in the memory of his fans as long as the world lives. Pay my greatest tribute to his kunfu legacy.
I was a young teenager during Bruce Lee’s theatre films. With a couple of years studying tai chi, I eagerly mimicked his movement and fluid style accompanied by raw power. He was truly a master of his discipline as well as karate and kung fu. I’m always proud to tell anyone that loves his work that I’ve seen all his films on the big screen. If art imitates life then his short time on earth was a priceless masterpiece.
WOW!… what a brain wash!
Bruce's philosophies are eternal and they still motivate and shape my life.
Shape... like water? 💦
@@hunglo_ren though it is true that water takes the shape of the vessel. Which of course means adapt to your situation. Just remember this! Water cannot create its own turbulence.

He is who inspired me to begin martial arts as a child till my 30s. He has always been a person I look up to. His characters on screen and videos of who he is taught me a lot. Never forgotten.
I was in my young 20s and a huge fan of both Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris. From his Green Lantern days he was so impressive in his style. I could not get enough of his movies, and like many others, the news of his death hit me hard.
This man is way ahead of his time and a very very smart and well-spoken man contrary to popular thinking that martial artists just know how to fight and can't speak eloquently.
Yeah he was really unique.and not only got Muscle he also was a very smart guy and philosopher.i Bet he was able to uses words which were as sharp as a Sword without no Problem
1:43 damn that kick was one of the most realistic style ever in a street fight. simple , direct yet graceful!
It's a shuffle kick and it was real! Bob Wall pissed Bruce off, read about it. ...
I loved to hear Bruce Lee's personal thoughts through the interviews with him. I also loved to hear what those close to him thought. I am not a marital artist. But still I have watched this video twice. Why ? Bruce Lee has an influence far beyond marital arts and I feel this influence pushes far into humanity itself. That's why I am (in a strange way) proud to say I am not a marital artist or a boxer just to show legitimately, that in the hearts of many "Bruce Lee" was clearly someone special. "FOR ALL". As for his philosophy. Better said as his "TAO" (I think). I love it. It has far reaching implications even beyond martial arts.
Nicely said
He was a supper hero
.and all over the world people cannot forget his name BRUCE LEE. ..I AM A SPOREAN .HE IS A SUPPER HERO....TK MY NICK NAME CALL MR HUDSON NG....TK
Thanks guys truly said. Far beyond the horizontal sphere of humanity, martial arts world is too small fo him. His philosophy revive n reform the power of God the divine convictions n influence to us all...
i love him with all my heart
Who doesn't love Bruce Lee?
With the exception of a few nob heads like Frank Dux who ducks away from any fight.
Bruce Lee was the best ever, period!!!
Bruce dedicated himself to his art! Not many have the discipline and dedication!
I was just a toddler when Bruce died, but growing up, I saw all of his films. He was my inspiration in formally studying martial arts in early high school (1984) and continue to do so now, evolving as I age. One of the main reasons for my decision was also based on the circumstances that Bruce found himself in - constant attempts at bullying of me and my siblings because we grew up in various places where we were not immediately accepted, we had to fight everyday, but we were glad we went through that because all those experiences toughened us, made us wiser and smarter, and more understanding and respectful of people regardless of status, age, education/intellectual capacity.... So, thank you Bruce, and to his family who continues to manage the publication of his stories. God bless you and all those who were similarly inspired by his life.
How can someone who lived and died before I was even born have such an effect on me? Truly mythical! Long live the man, the myth, the LEGEND!
There are many great people who have made large impacts on History without us ever knowing....until someone else comes along and points them out.
For instance the movie Hidden Figures shows the US could NEVER have beaten the Russians to the Moon without African Americans. African American WOMEN. Yet "Women aren't good at Math" despite one being noticeably superior than her white male counterparts.
Unfortunately... there's so many Greats lost to time that most History Books that we use in K-12 education and often times even in College.
We learn about Columbus...but not the man in that era who had his beliefs evolve from "Hey PoC make for great slaves" to "Slavery is EVIL. Period. End of Story"
We learn about Columbus in America, despite him never once stepping foot in the USA. But he discovered "America", when it was really just the Caribbean
@@TheAyanamiRei Why do racists have to make everything about race?
You are easily effected, simple. Be like water my friend.
Bruce Lee changed millions of peoples beliefs, he changed how Americans saw the Chinese people, and how the Chinese people saw Americans.
He changed how martial arts films were filmed, he changed the way the fight scenes were done.
He was and still is an inspiration to many people from many different countries.

Bruce Lee's philosophy did influence my life as a child. He was an inspiration for me when I was growing up. It took nearly 30 years to realise my dream. This year I was able to visit his grave and pay my respect to him.

Yes. I remember watching Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon while on a summer holiday with my dear deceased mother and
Younger brother in Athens, Greece at a beach cinema. ...that memory of Bruce Lee been ever since then has been so nostalgic 😢
I remember as a kid growing up in the 70s and 80s!!! we, in my inner circle of friends, idolized this man. both , in Art. and in the movies !!! Enter the dragon 🐉, return of the dragon, etc. There was not a broom nor a shovel with a handle in our homes / garages.... as we would cut them(all) up to make num-chucks or bows !!!

@UNTRIABLE GAMING Bruce was so far ahead of his time as he was a student of several crafts even beyond martial arts like boxing. He’s the true father of mixed martial arts. So if he lived today he would have put his incredible learning skills to tighten up his only MMA perceived weakness of ground game though in movies he took opponents out with rear naked chokes & triangle chokes which he used to kill Chuck Norris on film. So he could have perfected jui jitsu seeing how he used submission moves before they were well known 50 years ago. Dude was 1 of a kind & though of course many skilled fighters would favorably match against Lee.
@UNTRIABLE GAMING I’m just curious to which part of my assessment you don’t agree. I’m not whining, I’m just sincerely curious as I agree with your initial comment which is why I expounded the thought. I’m interested in your opinion, is it the he’s the true father of mixed martial arts?
@@derekgimler7915 Wiliam E. Fairbairn developed MMA hand to hand systems (most notably defendu) that were used in actual combat in the late 1920s and indeed to the present day. To say Bruce Lee was the father of MMA is simply preposterous, he was no such thing! He was just a kung-fu movie actor and not even a particularly good one... :-)
I was 19 and had just left home to start my first job when Enter the Dragon came out and hit the cinemas. It changed my life.
Bruce lee will never die he is always here with us
Really enjoyed that Bruce Lee was an absolute legend when i was a kid growing up in scotland me and a few pal,s used to go the the cinema in town anytime a Bruce lee film came on, we all wanted to be like him, though none of us was close, sadly missed think how much more he had to give, i'm 57 now and i,l always remember him. RIP Little Dragon.
wagons are circling, mahalo my brother!

We are the same age mate. He was a legend for me in Japan. I was new to Asian culture, just a little shit back then trying to understand why dad moved us there. He had a good reason, and I learned about Asian culture....I learned to love it, and Bruce Lee!!! (Even though he was from Hong Kong, and I was in Japan)
Something tells me this was universal:🇲🇴🇨🇨 when Enter the Drsgon ended and you left the movie theatre, )as soon as you got outside you and your friends were kicking and chopping the hell out of each other, everyone of you, suddenly, black belt superstars!
His training was impeccable he had a unique style to himself that nobody has seen anywhere martial art was to him like a religion that's how he treated it he was very very focused in martial art and I know in my heart the world misses him
R.I.P. THE WORLD WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU BRUCE LEE, THANK'S COMMENT FROM CHICAGO..
I just believe that Bruce had more levels of martial arts. What we saw him do wasn't all he had. With Bruce's discipline & his work ethic. I just believe Bruce had other styles & more levels he could elevate too that the public didn't get a chance to see.

Bruce Lee was the greatest martial artist of all the time - the GOAT if you will. All other great martial artists agree! I am a martial artist myself - 1st Dan in Karate, 3rd Dan in Spirit-Combat Ju-Jitsu (MMA) , 1st Kup in Taekwondo as well as a Brown Belt in Kickboxing. I have been training for 38 years - so feel I have an ability to appreciate Bruce's amazing skills.
Bruce Lee inspired (and still inspires) many children and even grownups to become the best of themselves. Hearing him talk is just an ocean of philosophy and great advice if you listen carefully.
RIP Legend.
Totally agree.

He's an inspiration in almost everything. Academics, life, philosophy, martial arts, and so many personality traits.❤❤❤❤.He left us too soon.😭😭😭
Bruce Lee has inspired me my whole life. Made me see things in a different perspective every single day. I'm 42 now and I always practice every single day. Thank you guys for this video.
Bruce Lee was unbeatable with a fantastic body, very masculine and good looking. He was very charismatic. So sad he left at a such young age. May him RIP. 🙏

@@jimbetts5164 😂😂😂😂
Bruce Lee’s response to prejudice and discrimination during the early stage of his career reflects how resilient he is. Instead of cursing the world he just said fuck it I’ll go be a star somewhere else. Did just that and got people crawling back to him begging to work with him. Just because the world is against you doesn’t mean you play victim n give up. “To hell with circumstances, I create opportunities”
I don't think it was prejudice or discrimination, but rather exactly what he said. He was suitable as an actor pretty much exclusively as a martial artist. He was not good for any other type of role. That is true of essentially all actors. Almost no actors are ever cast in multiple different types of roles. But he was an influence like no other in history, not only in the martial art world, but in the world of acting for fighters/ martial artists who became actors.
@@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO he was a martial artist trying to get the leading role on a show about a traveling martial artist. He didn’t get it because either he was a bad actor or no one wants to invest in a show with an Asian lead. I would argue it’s the latter.
Think when he have faced D.Carradine „in a street „ oh men ( ithink he have show him what is real Kung Fu ! ) Don’t steal from the Dragon 🐉.
Like the Side Kick that becomes B.Wall in E.T.D. - or Han with full speed against his head !!!
@@BioBoosterSoldier no he was an actor who did some martial arts.
Bruce Lee, son of famous Chinese Opera singer-actor Lee Hoi-chuen, was a child actor who was in 20 movies by the time he arrived in the US at 18 years old. Nearly all which he started or co-starred in. He also took Cha Cha and fencing lessons as well.
All you said is true but, not “some martial arts”. If he really knew only “some” martial arts, he wouldn’t know this much techniques from different styles from Taekwondo, Boxing, Karate, Wing Chun, Grappling, Arnis, etc. He is the one that expose Chinese Martial Arts when put into an actual fight which is Wing Chun. With his philosophy, he said Wing Chun’s stance is not open enough, only the counter attack was really useful. That’s how Bruce Lee’s journey to learn different type of styles in the world begin.
Every time I watch him I think about only one thing.
What a great loss to the world happened when he was gone!
عندك حق وانا كنت أقول ذلك ايظا
I remember crying when Kato fought Robin to a draw. I remember my uncle telling me how great Bruce Lee is after leaving Enter the Dragon at the theater. I loved Bruce as a child and still do.
Steve McQueen, Burt Reynolds, Arnold, Bruce Willis, Tom Cruise…..
The list of Hollywood’s top actors will continue to grow.
The day Bruce died I was old enough to read the newspaper. I read the headline article time and time again trying to figure out how he could die. I didn’t believe it was possible. His was the first poster to hang on my bedroom wall.
History has forgotten Steve McQueen and Burt Reynolds. Arnold, Bruce Willis and Tom Cruise will be forgotten by time as well. They are all actors. People who get paid to create illusion.
Bruce Lee had ability. A three year old boy knew that Robin, Batman’s sissy sidekick, would be obliterated by Kato.
Tom Cruise will go the way of Rudolph Valentino as will the other Hollywood stars, except for Bruce Lee.
100 years from now when all the other stars are forgotten children will watch clips of an exceptional man doing remarkable things. Bruce Lee will be remembered by history as the greatest male lead actor ever
Did you keep the paper?and did you lknow that Bruce Lee had to slow 🐌 it down for the camera 📷 I thought that was cool too fast to be on camera 📷.
Never has one left the world with such awe and his legend will still be a hot topic in 3222.
Christ, Shakespeare? I'd have thought that even John Lennon and Bob Marley might be contenders. There have been political leaders down the centuries who have commanded far more "awe" and "legend"
More Bruce content please! I still get chills watching him. Mad Respect!!! There will never be another of his caliber. His fighting and life philosophies were and still are ground breaking!
R.I.P Bruce.
The sheer tragity of Bruce's early passing was only magnified by the senseless and heartbreaking 💔😭 death of his Son Brandon. I truly wish I could have met these 2 incredible Men.
"The Crow" is one of my favorite movies! I watch it at least once or twice every year. That being said, my heart breaks harder with each viewing.
Me too

I was in high school, Oakland, CA when Lee was in The Green Lantern. There was NO ONE LIKE HIM! Untouchable!
you mean the green hornet??
That's Ryan Reynold you're talking about and he's Canadian
Untouchable? So why did he end up in the hospital in traction from a real life street fight. Ip Man was untouchable. Everyone forgets Bruce Lee sought Ip Man out because of his reputation, which means he wasn't as good as he himself thought he was. He wanted to learn from the best. Fact.

Bruce Lee taught me never to underestimate the power of one
I first saw Bruce Lee on the big screen at the age of 13, I was already training to become a boxer at the time trying to follow in my dad's footsteps, my father was Gary Cowburn Commonwealth title holder for six years. As much as dad would have liked me to carry on his his boxing legacy I was under the spell of the magnificence of Bruce Lee's martial arts, Kung Fu or his form, jeet June do, I became fanatical and later left the boxing ring to try my hand at martial arts. I was so awe inspired by not only his martial arts prowess but also his philosophy's. I watched every one of Bruce's movies multiple times, but one movie caught my attention undeniably.... Enter the Dragon, I saw the movie enter the Dragon 179times, I even drove to different cities even a different state once to watch this particular movie, this guy just blew me away with his kicks and punches and the speed and accuracy with which he could execute them, I was so engrossed in this movie I actually learnt the script and would sit with my friends and mouth the script word for word, I've seen many good martial artist in my days but never has their been an exponent as good as nor as dynamic as Bruce Lee, and just for the record I'm 5' tall and I will tell you also size does not matter 😊

Size does matter. Compactness is an essential component in ferocity. The bigger they are...you know? Used to love basketball, because I could get in, around, and under any of 'em. Folks don't really get how important conservative mass is.
@@patrickd2013 Sorry Patrick I should have been more concise, my comments regarding size, I was referring to physical combat situations not sports all round.
I Saw "Enter The Dragon" when I was 13. That was my intro to Bruce Lee. I was blown away. But I was also bullied and teased for being a Bruce Lee fan. Those idiots who challenged me would say "What would Bruce do in this situation" and I would respond with " How would I know? I am NOT Bruce Lee!"
He inspired me so much that I not only based a lot of his teachings on my life but I'm currently making an fully animated movie based on him.
Why?
U serius?
Bruce Lee was amazing, no one can emulate the way he fought, I don't have pertinent words to describe him
BRUCE LEE LIVES IN HEARTS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD
NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN BRUCE LEE
One of the freshest new looks at a legend loved it . You did a great job telling about things you don't always hear about, love to hear more.
The man inspired me in every way
Amazing!!! Of all the videos I have seen on UA-cam, literally 1,000’s, and some of those about Bruce and his iconic life and it’s great impact on all who have been exposed to him. Here I sit in awe once again, taken back to my childhood in the 70’s when I first saw him in “The Big Boss” on a Sunday afternoon after church when one of only 3 stations we had played it for free. I watch as tears well up in my eyes. A 60 year old man now a Grandfather. Heart broken to the shear loss of such a talented man not only in his physical prowess but his gentle loving kindness that he spread to those that knew him. The only positive takeaway I can see is that he didn’t have to suffer the loss of Brandon or see the sad state of failure that humanity has achieved.
Amen. It would be real interesting to hear him talk about the world today, along with the fact that victimhood is an occupation and a virtue, a proud way of life for so many.
His philosophy, and his fighting skill were hand-in-hand, perfectly balanced, that was the essence of his greatness
My biggest influence as a kid was Jackie Chan. He created so many styles and his movies were always so enjoyable. He was never an untouchable superhero. But, when he got hit, he normally made it funny and made himself seem like an average guy with martial arts training that was caught in crazy situations. He was so relatable. I always respected Bruce, but it wasn't until the last decade or so when I started to realise why he was so revered. I have endless respect for the man. That being said, I also truly believe that what MJW said was completely true. He's still training in the modern world, even with UFC fighters. To think that Bruce could hang with him is crazy given the size and weight difference along with the modern approach to martial arts. I just wish that Bruce would have lived long enough to see his vision come to life as it is now in MMA. I think he would have been even better than he was if he had lived to continue expanding his philosophy and style.
Because of Bruce Lee I went into marshal arts back in 70.
He truly was the most innovative and gifted fighter I have ever seen.
marshal arts sounds like a lucky guy!
Marshal law was a character from tekken inspired by Bruce Lee
What a Man Bruce Lee was , no one today would be able to match is skills . R.I.P Bruce Lee ❤🙏
Lol no
You’re over your head
When Bruce fights Chuck it's so hard to watch as they were both my dad's idols.
My dad looked like Chuck but darker hair everywhere lol
He took his life when I was 10, 31 years ago.
I love Bruce Chuck Dad and anyone you is a legend like them thank you for the videos!!!!
I do too. Bruce was the best. Chuck you don't mess with. I love his style. N he good people too. Thanks Chuck.. Joe Lewis was good too... to me I pick Norris anytime even at his age.
Just watching this video made me tear up. I was a teen when Bruce 's movies were released. It was such a shock when he died. The Green Hornet and Kato were my first memories of Bruce. I am so glad he went to Hong Kong so he could have control of his movies. He is an amazing person. His comeback after his back injury inspired many people. I really respect Kelly for not indulging his knowledge of who Bruce sparred with. Not everything in a person's life should be for public consumption. The second shock was when his son Jason died on set. Such a strange death also.
His son was named Brandon
Bruce Lee was 50 years ahead of his time. He will never be equalled! Truly one in a million.
Bruce Lee was one in a trillion, always my idol and my hero like i said he was a special individual, what a lost so sad and so young 😥🇵🇷🤙🐐
For such a little guy, he had tremendous strength. He was only 5'7" and about 135 lbs. Despite his small size he had such explosive power. He could take the strength of his entire mind, body and spirit and put it into his fist. There will never be another one like him.
That "1 inch punch" is the embodiment of that. It should be re named the "Nuclear Punch".
Don Skiver Bruce once held the WR for the most push ups he had the strength of a 200 lb man.
@Fish boy No it didn't but it didn't hurt he had the strength of somebody bigger.
then you have schmucks like MJW trying to downplay Bruce. Bruce hit hard as ANY HEAVYWEIGHT is what people in the know have described.
if you knew he invented protein shakes, and was very aware of carbohydrates long before Atkins, and had special equipment made because normal stuff was too weak, and he invented the TENS unit which his friend built for him which would electrically stimulate his muscles while he was writing and studying and was the equivalent of doing 1000 pushups.
most people know nothing about Lee. they know he was in some movies so they think he's an actor.
We now know that when someone is electrified, say by grabbing a power line, and they are "blown back", that electricity itself doesn't move the body; our own muscles contract and push us away, which can be several feet. We now question the depths of what our muscles can actually do. Mr. Lee could tap into strengths unknown. The connections between our mind and body are strengthened through practice. His entire life was his practice of mind and body. This is why his strength is legendary, and unmeasurable.
My favourite and Legend of martial arts 👍👍
Bruce was the true master. I watched each of his movies 2-3 times and felt as if it was the first time to see it. Love the man.
This man saw the world for what it truly is,and will always be remembered 🙏🕯️
FOREVER
Bruce Lee is the best and the greatest martial artist that has ever lived.
As a young teenager I mesmerised by Bruce Lee, he made a huge impression on me because of his speed ,skill & strength ,he was one a kind ,not mention his passion & intelligence. it was heart breaking to hear of his death especially at a young age & the same with his son Brandon who showed much of his father's greatness in his own way . Also went to young
Oh gee trevor, that's so touching!… WOW what a brain wash!
T-Rufoe*z WTC!..
T-Rufoe*z WTC FOREVER!. souls of mischief 93' Until!..
Bruce Lee was the best today, tomorrow and the future. Bruce Lee will never be forgotten. His books must be thought in schools around the world.
This is a great, no-nonsense look at a great man, without the hyperbole and fantasy tales that accompany many other videos. Bruce Lee's speed is what set him apart as well as his training and techniques. Like a martial arts friend of mine said, "If someone punches a 500 lb bag and it moves even a little, don't fight that guy."
In my 80’s childhood and dealing with discrimination, Bruce became a part of my protector. I remember white kids constantly calling me names but they were scared to fight because they really thought I had some Bruce skills in me and that I might just whoop them. Lots of confrontation ended peacefully, thanks to the fear of Bruce. No joke.
Funny, me too. Scared off some bullies just showing off movie moves of Bruce Lee
this comment made a caucasian love him even more.
thak you for sharing.
Yes, I remembered those times when the fist thing came out of a white boy or white man's mouth was, " Do you know karate?". Or "Hey, do you know Bruce lee?" My friends and I used to wear old style chinese clothes just to show that we know karate and not to mess with us.
Same.
I’m Jewish and feel your pain. Dealt with discrimination in my life and drudged through my fair share of elementary school bullying. But hey, we’re still here so eff them, right? 😂 on a serious note though, I’m so sorry that happened to you. And glad Bruce Lee was there for you. When you think of how many lives he probably inspired, touched, motivated, saved and yes even gave a sense of protection to, it’s truly incredible what he accomplished in his all too tragically cut short life. Probably millions of people, more than he could have ever known. But Maybe, just maybe, he’s watching over you still, right this minute 😇
Bruce Lee was my idol and hero. I had only 2 posters on my wall in my bedroom as a kid; Mu-hammed Ali and Bruce Lee. I got into martial arts when I was a kid and studied and worked out completely inspired by Bruce Lee.
Check out Baki on Netflix
Agreed times have changed I have never seen another boxer that caught my attention like Muhammad Ali....the closest I can get to Bruce lee ..is Michael Jackson dance moves
I’m literally the same weight and same hight as master Lee. I have watched all his films . He is a true inspiration to this day . The way he was and what knowledge this incredible man had. thought me to be true to self and be confident. That you can fight without fighting this helped me a lot through my life . I have fought people bigger then me and had success. The wisdom he had to give in his short but impactive way of life lives to this day in me and I am great full for all he has done for the world in the time he had 🙏 truly an great and inspiring man and will for ever live on in hearts of many and will continue to
Bruce didn't lay the blame on an entire race because of the ones that treated him poorly. Thats the perfect measure of tolerance and intelligence. Need more like him today.
Unfortunately that is often the case today.
T-Rufoe'z Sun!.
WTC!..
True non of them will ever be the hypocritical white man tell you that shit now
He definitely opposed the white supremacist power structure prevalent in Hollywood & the entire U.S.
And actually reading the history of white supremacy is a perfect measure of empathy in a race that benefits everyday from the groundwork of their murderous, racist, & treacherous ancestors.
My life changed once I watched and learned from Bruce Lee, He made a very big impact on my life still today at 63. Miss Him dearly.
RIP MASTER LEE!!!!!!!! YOU DEFINITELY CHANGE THE WAY OF FIGHTING AND LEFT THE WORLD WITH SUCH A GREAT MEMORY

During my high school days in 1970s, boys of our section and all others from A to C idolized Bruce Lee, and most cut classes who went downtown Cebu City to view the movie "Enter the Dragon". Thereafter majority enrolled in Karate Clubs led by Bruce Lee-like staunch fanatic classmate. Our youthful days centered around Lee and basketball, as extracurricular activities. How life would be great for us in our happy go lucky days.
The Greatest of all Times
Say what you want about the man. He by far is such an inspiration to his day. Iconic forever. As long as humans are on this earth his name will always come up. For me personally watching his movies gives you motivation and enthusiasm to be your best self. Much love and respect to Bruce Lee.
An excellent, and even-handed comment about Bruce being an inspiration, and motivator, that's very true.
"The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering." He really did that.
Very true.
Hitler (and other various politicians) be like "true dat"

One of the guys said; "I have seen Bruce sparred with different masters but you can't touch Bruce Lee, it doesn't matter if it's lightweight or heavyweight."
And that's incredible!
Neither have I but miss him with alheart
