i was lucky to stumble into tae kwon do in Providence Rhode Island thanks to my older sister. Master He Il Cho. A true master at the time a 6th degree from Korea, a Korean national champion. I owe my current health and strength at age 63 to what I took from Tae Kwon Do when I first took at age 15 after brutal near crippling back surgery at 14. This was in 1971 mind you when I was 14 and no cat scans no MRIs etc.
born in 1932 so he was 64 at this time. I am 63 now. Time to get back in shape
Mr Rhee gave lessons in San Antonio Texas in the summer of 1962...I was there as a 16 year boy...
Thank you sir for this tribute to Jhoon Rhee. I wish I'd met him, but heard inspiring stories from my instructors about his demonstrations and teaching by example. Best, Mark
That was very nice of this great grand master to get out and demonstrate anything, i enjoyed it very much. He was a great man !!
I trained under one of his students in the late 80s and early 90s. Mr. And Mrs Ohl; in Carson City, Nevada. Very fun time in my life.
He was a real master and he rests comfortably with his ancestors 🙏🏽
Rip Master Rhee...great Taekwondo Man, Legends never die.
RIP, GM Rhee, one of a best friend of Bruce Lee. God bless them
Grandmaster Rhee RIP
R.I.P. Master Rhee
Carl Postuma ....When did this happen!!! I thought he was still alive!
@@kelvendyson1508 I’m not sure about rhee but I remember some sort of taekwondo master dying of Covid….
@@kelvendyson1508 Not to long ago, but definitely before covid. I think 2018 or 2019.
@@2ndcomingofFritz It wasn't that long ago, but it was a bit before covid.
Met him at the Bruce Lee scholarship tournament in 1989. Very nice man
Excelente maravilha tkd na veia sempre
All Those Who have a Negative Comment probably cant Even Tie their Own Shoes. Have Respect for master Rhee who at 64 Was A Machine.
He was the fittest person of his age I ever met. He was and always will be a legend.
Rest in peace Grand Master Jhoon Rhee
Yes love you Brother wish I would of been watch yoh very good brother. Great shape R.I.P
I remember he visited the dojo here in Chicago back in the mid 80s we where kids breaking wooden boards an doing knuckle push ups
father of american tae kwon do rip jhoon rhee
God bless him forever and ever!!
"I wish our president, congress men, could balance the budget like this" lmao. Thanks for sharing
I studied in a Jhoon Rhee TKD dojo when i was alot younger. I have a co worker that did karate, and he was a first degree blackblelt. For some reason he sin't able to remember most of the stuff he was taught. Even though ive been out of the dojo for probalby about 20 years. i still have the kicking flexibility, and can remember the katas that we trained to do. Something that baffled me hella was in karate (my friends karate) he says they only taught about 4 kicks at most. That aside, i genuinely believe the Joohn Rhee schools are valid (they are more olympic style) but can still be practical. I hope they dont get turned into McDojos though, because i know i learned a lot from all the tae kwon do i took under their classes.
At that age was amazing all he could do
very inspirational.
RIP Jhoon Rhee
Grandmaster Jhoon Rhee the one who taught Bruce lee how to do powerful sidekick
And he even said he couldn't stand a fight against Bruce Lee
I'm honored to have him as one of my 1st degree black belt judges in 1996...or was it 1999? My certificate with the date on it is still at my parents' house. I wish I could've met Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan.
Impressive----but those were only HALF push-ups. But, at 64,
we'll let Jhoon slide.
The real problem is that his knees were hitting the ground and his upper body was barely moving, which just makes it so much easier since he was barely going down. He still did 100 in less than 60 seconds, which very few young athletes could have even done with that form. Very very impressive to have that kind of health and physical fitness at any age though, never mind in his mid 60's.
Great example!
He was an impressive type of figure. I met him a few times. There were things I liked about him and things that really put me off about him. But, I respect his legacy. I only wish the network of schools that his organization gave rise to hadn't become the original McDojo prototype.
What is it that put you off about him? I mean since you brought it up already.. I’m curius
@@abk8310 Each time was at a martial arts school. He just came off as very much like a used car salesman. He spoke in scripted, ham-fisted platitudes. No actual conversation real conversation. It was more like he was a "spokesperson" than a person. He was there to do his dog and pony show, and answer questions from students with "buy the videotape".
Respect to my old Grandmaster.
He is a legendary ❤️🥋💕💞🔥💯👍
So awesome
The 80s was a special time in mystical bollox!!!
WOW! Inspiring :D
He's a beast
i have never seen someone more clever....than jöon rhee
Exllent
At his age is in very good shape !
Regardless if the were right or wrong he still did more than me lol.
This master taught Bruce Lee how to kick...
They trained yes but yip mans senior pupils tought kicks to Bruce.
Bruce Lee learned from many people. His side kick was definitely a Jhoon Rhee side kick though.
Come to think of it I've happen to have done Taekwondo kick stretches while watching movies on demand.
64 years old and doing 100 half ups. He's on his way to 100 years as well.
He's dead
@@freedomatlast8756 passed away
those weren't even half push ups they were 1/3
@@dassolosyndikat5113 His legs were hitting the ground. Still though, most young athletes who workout seriously don't have the health and physical fitness to do what he did. Some do, but most don't.
Some form of push-up is better than no push up at all
héhé ! I love this huy ! Like his spirit ! :)
Золотой костюм, отжимания на ладошках в широком хвате без касания грудью пола, удержание ноги на уровне солнечного сплетения без участия мышц и с использованием дополнительных устройств. Мастер, однозначно, как бы сказал Жириновский!
he is funny...awesome for circus..
I wonder, what happened to the many schools in the various locations around Washington, D.C., after he died. Did they continue? Did they change their names? Did someone inherit them? Did they break up to be independent schools or absorbed by other organizations? The father of American TaeKwonDo, originally a graduate of the Chung Do Kwan, deserves huge amounts of respect. "Nobody bothers me, either".
I'm not sure who owns them, but I know for a fact two different locations still exist in Virginia. You might be able to find them on google.
oh look at this: ua-cam.com/video/5bT8UZSWmns/v-deo.html
One of his sons owns one and I believe a son-in-law or nephew-in-law owns the other one. The owners of the DC area schools used to train with Grandmaster Jhoon Rhee monthly nearly up until his death. There aren't many left in the US, but a ton in Eastern Europe. There is actually one in Ukraine that I believe is currently doing online classes despite what is going on over there right now.
I want to be like Jhoon Rhee
Wow!
My sense I has trained with grandmaster Jhoon Rhee
Smoofia MINE TOO!! SMALL WORLD XD
I trained with his pupil.
Jhoon Rhee and his fancy gi, can do more push ups than you and me!
He can do more than you and most young athletes who take care of their health and workout. I've been working out real hard and doing push ups since I was I teenager, so for me it's not a problem to beat that. My cardio and strength are top notch. My weakness has always been flexibility. I was never genetically gifted to be flexible, and I don't work on it enough. My legs are really strong and I squat a ton because of hard work and my genetics for strength, but I can feel flexibility holding me back on that lift and some others. Id be even stronger than I already am if my hips were more flexible. Flexibility can make it so you're not quite as strong as you could be on some exercises. There are many other good reasons it's important too. I need to start working on flexibility and stretching daily, maybe some yoga. Jhoon Rhee was 64 and was a very impressive guy, RIP Jhoon Rhee.
jvior...your comment reflects your own ineptitude about pushups and senility. There are several dozen types of pushups, all of which Master Rhee could perform more than the average person.
true inspiration - just pure health ! no drugs !
grandmaster jhoon rhee very good demo
RIP, I apologize for all the negativity seen here.
No need to apologise, ya whiny bitch : )
Best friend, Bruce Lee, legends! TKD JKD
R.I.P master Rhee. Kickin it to the end.
now do left leg ...?
Is it Prabhupad mahaguru?
> Sifu Lohan JyunFu Pai: to Courtney Ellis:
Absolutely. I stand corrected. Meaning; Master Jhoon Rhee has helped 100's of thousands improve their life. He gets all the credit for being a great Soul and a loving teacher. Let me rephrase; he has earned immense credit, especially at age 64. However, he cannot teach me. Most especially pushups. Perhaps of interest; those Martialists doing these "wide armed shortened pushups" are throughout my own Kung Fu system. I have been correcting them for 30 years. Seems, I need to begin making videos now. Also, I am very spoiled; I lived with my 1st Grandmaster 8.8 years & my 2nd Grandmaster 7 years; I know stuff. My 3rd Grandmaster, I could not live with, yet he is still going strong at age 70. I am only 67 as when I am 77 I will have attained a higher level of all things. My 2nd Teacher age 63 translated way too young. Jhoon Rhee did better at age 86; whereas I image, he was teaching until his last breath; just as I will. Thank you for your info Courtney Ellis, as I did not want to seem insensitive nor ungrateful; I should have been clearer; Jhoon Rhee is/was a great Soul; nor am I putting him down as a person; not at all. I was simply offering; this is a better way to do pushups. I hope this is better, for I have no dissension nor any animosity, with "not one" other Martialist here in USA nor in Hong Kong nor in China; I am quite happy in my existence;
That's only for cinema, the Brazilians arrived in the 90"s and I ended with all the bullshit ..
I want to marry that ex moonie girl who left the Moonie family. SHES SO PRETTTY!
Inachu Ikimasho que é isso grande Mestre. Run qualquer pessoa com flexibilidade faz isso. Não gostei Curitiba PR Brasil
urghhh, belly pushups(partial)
103 push-ups. Crowd was way off lol
those aren't pushups, your chest should almost touch the floor
Master Jhoon Rhee was truly helping Martialists way back in 1970;

This guy is so special, he taught Bruce lee how to properly kick and he Teach Muhammad Ali To Punch yea but the speed of a 0.25 called non telegraphic movement which means by the time Brain sends signals to the muscle , before! you already made the punch! 🤨🤫💯👊💪 I need this guy to teach me how fight but he passed away long time ago!
He never taught Bruce Lee how to kick
He is died 🎉
@@johncarroll772 dig in google and other sources you'll see
Respect to grand Master but that partial push ups simply sucks
Arthur Derek The Wolf please update when you are 65, would love to see you do half as man even "partially"
He is actually very strong so im sure he can do full push ups
Full pushups can damage the elbows over time, and are not necessary to increase strength and punching power.
Farmer Bold Wrong!
I've been doing 30+ full pushups, daily, for decades. I'm in my 60's.
Good luck.
LemonSheep _ I'm telling the truth.
Good luck.
Nobody bothers me !!
I could do 275 real pushups when I was 35. My youngest son could do them endlessly.
at federweight lol
I believe you and your son definitely could. I'm in my 30s and workout like crazy all the time, super heavy weights, and all kinds of intense cardio. I can do push ups pretty much non stop as well, and I'm a big guy with A LOT of muscle mass. I have to admit though it's much much different doing push ups at 35 when you're young and pretty much in the prime of your life. It's different being close to 65, which is a senior citizen and doing tons and tons of push ups, even if they aren't great form. Good strong young athletes can sometimes do more than him, but what he's doing is still very very impressive. There are young strong healthy guys at my gym who can't do what he did, although they never do many push ups. Still, he deserves a lot of credit.
How many of y’all can kick his ass or have his body
dead fast if go mma
QUIEN ES ESTE SR? QUE TAEKWON DO ENSEÑA ITF WTF?
Mannn,,, this cu#ts tough...😎😎
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Aw c'mon no kicks? Wtf
Agora já tem até quimoninhos de cetim amarelinho para enganar os trouxas. Vai para o Octógono e prova que essa baboseira toda faz algum sentido. Não dá pra gente treinar sério e ver essas bobagens todas. Quer fazer igual a ele, que faça, mas passe longe dos ringues.
Ridicule cet entraînement. On comprend mieux les propoq de Bruce Lee.
He should have performed some katas and techniques , though he was good for his age .👍
Wrong push ups
이게 뭐가 대단한건지... 96-32 하면..64세때 저런겨?? 흐음;;;
What crap is that?
not crap .... clap
LOL! ULTIMATE BULLSHIDO
Plain and simple, push ups are not all the way down. Using a rope, etc to lift your leg up? Can't even stand good but bounces. Not good foundation. But for his age is ok, demonstration is not all that neither. Real fight, nah.... Who he truly try to fool, for someone who already know Martial Arts for years, decades!
The question is Jimmy can you do it..
@@realtalk9169 I can spread eagle easy. I started to learned Choy Li Fut at 14 for 4-5 years, then Wing Chun for 3-4 years, now boxing for the last 3 years. We all practice weekly, friends got all kind of Kung Fu and boxing requirements where we all practice at his backyard.
What he is doing with the belt isnt hard at all his kicks were easy to do I have videos of myself doing them.
While the cup thing i never did....i dont think my head is flat enough but my balance was and in any kick my head never moved up or down.
The Push ups werent hard since they werent full push ups unless dick to the floor is a full push up.
It is like those dudes who set punch speed records yet are not even throwing full punches please...
Only at the end he goes a little further down..
Marines, Army, Seals, Rangers, Special Ops couldnt get away with those noobie push ups.
Balance cup of stuff and brake boards now thats something i never thought off...
A lot of uneducated people there.
I never lost to a Tae Kwon Do person that god damn hopping and never using their hands is easy to get into and do all sorts of body damage.
They freaked out when fighting them when i grabbed their hand twisted their amr and rammed a kick into ribs snapping them..
They would complain about me grabbing their hand of course waa waa waa wasnt against the rules they just didnt have any way and training fight that way....if they pulled their hand away they always left a huge opening to get in on
They also complained I never wore any gloves just bare knuckles
Screw protection on the street there is no protection
Damn tournament babies.
But that was the 80s and 90s
I am still training in a 7th system at 53 its a bitch. Damn Wing CHun Do street fighting system and them odd stances and insane punching speeds are tiring...but adding it to what I already know yeah..
Rest in Peace Grand Master Jhoon Rhee and say high to Grand Master Jae Joon Kim for me and Nam Kim also my Instructor Grand Master William Thompson
This Grandmaster is getting senile because that is not a pushup. And I don't know why everyone is clapping to promote false pushups which is bad for the kids and bad for the shake of proper pushups. It's a shame.
There are many ways to do pushups ....
Well said
J Vior Get over it.
He is 64 at the time of this video. Doing a heck of job.
u really dissing an old man? really? did you think he was immortal or sumethin lmao? 64 and can kick your butt:D
So great balance weak push-ups, grandmasters of what again? Flexibility ok then😮 less than 5feet tall, 120lbs this isn’t a bad thing, no disrespect to any art cause they can work specially if can’t defend against it, fights usually end on ground & last 30 sec, sometime We learn the hard way specially if u never experienced it, I’ve done both& won titles but almost wished I spend more time doing grounds.
This master isn't a good example of Taekwondo. The whole point of Taekwondo is to stay humble and not wear gold and show off muscles.
He was a salesman
I not say anything. Okay I will. No better not. Well okay; you asked for it. Inclusive Jamesen Vior needs my support. This is again, what he say, a terrible illusion, of what "is not". Especially the youth, that want to train properly; this is not proper. It is idiocy. Forget that nonsense of "many ways to do pushups or age". When doing a pushup; one must go "all the way down" and "all the way up". To not do so; like in this silly video; what's developed is the shortening of the muscles. Without full extension and full contraction there is a great loss of muscle and tendon and ligament movements. To be very clear what this individual is doing and bless his little heart for being 64 for-sure, but he is doing about one-fifth of a complete and proper push-up. Inclusive the position he is holding his arms is also worthless and just silly. I do this all the time for just about everybody when I asked them show me your push-ups. They almost always are in that same position with the elbows and arms out wide. I tell them okay freeze and stay in that position. Now stand up holding your arms exactly the way you are doing the in your push up posture. Now start punching from that position and posture. And there it is. There is no proper alignment with the shoulder and arms for punching in that wide arm posture. Therefore, why would you develop your muscles and tendons and ligaments in such a position with such a push-up, when it is worthless. That is two strikes against this so-called master. I saw him do the same thing many years ago in front of the Senators as some great demo. It was just as silly and worthless then as it is now. There is a third strike, that being there are seven to nine inches in the shoulder for even more extension that is missing. I instruct to get those little arch-like handles that raise your hands off the ground 7 inches or so. Then when you do a push-up you go past the floor from the chest limitation, and you go all the way down till the shoulders are resting in the sockets to the full extension downward. Then when pushing up another 7 plus inches to full extended push-up position, with the elbows in, there is even greater strength in the arms shoulders and chest. I repeat the elbows are to be at the side of the chest just like the alignment in a straight punch as in Wing Chun. In addition I shall make it known that I have the greatest master in Taekwondo as my friend. He let us in his tournament (we won 7 trophies as this did not bother him at all. In fact he said it was great motivation to make his students train harder), and he even showed me the official Taekwondo manual that is derived from this Jhoon Rhee master. it says in there in black and white as I have read it. do not let any kung fu people join our Taekwondo School. do not enter into any of their tournaments and never allow a Kung Fu person in our Taekwondo tournament. I kind of knew the answer why this was done but I asked him anyway. Now this is really a Grandmaster and he left all the other Taekwondo circles. His answer was, they just don't like it in fact they hate it that the kung fu people always beat them. so perhaps of interest and perhaps not. This has never changed. I suppose that it will never change. for as they will not share and allow them self, meaning all of Taekwondo to share and to grow and to improve. in 100 years they have never done so and they never will. I really should not have even bothered anybody and posted here. But there it is. the illusion of what something is that is not even close to being what it is supposed to be, being shown what it is not. So okay. good here is something good. I disagree that he is not senile and is in complete possession of his mind and senses. Unfortunately his mind is blind and his senses are dim, to think he is presenting something to the world that we are going to accept. oh does anybody need to ask? of course I am Kung Fu and Tai Chi and none of what he does is acceptable. Just irked me is all. Do not anybody be offended, as it is not my intention to do so. Most especially those direct students of this teacher. you are actually there because of karmic conditions of learning your life lessons and experience with this individual. I know this is not very well known to just about everybody, but this is just to support those that make comments that are his students and think he is just the greatest. To you he is the greatest and that is cool or as it should be. However to us that knows better it is just more of the illusions that exist in martial arts. Bottom line; I need a calculator. Being a realistic 1/5th pushup; he needs 5 to do one real one. The so-called 100 must be divided by 5. So okay. He really did 20 pushups with 3 strikes for posture. Thsrs all i got.
The crowd got in a little bit of a rhythm with the count, so it's great that he kept going to at least make it close to 100 pushups.
His pushup demonstration is very impressive for a man of his age, but no drill sergeant would allow him to keep his nose so far above the mat.
@@Amberscion that’s like a half push up lol
