The reason Bruce didn't fight in tournaments, is his training was in survival fighting, in the streets of Hong Kong. His fighting style was designed to cripple or kill. He didn't want to do that in a friendly competition, also holding himself back in a fight was against his principles. He had to go with his full arsenal. Too many rules in a competition.
Bruce Lee wasn't allowed to fight in tournaments in Hong Kong because he wasn't 100% Chinese . He was allowed to do demonstrations at Ed Parker Karate tournaments .
@@akfreed6949 I don't know about the tournaments I'll have to go research that but I do know he was encouraged to go fight on the rooftops with fighters from different styles including western boxing by IP man himself and find what works. That's probably where he got his obsession to make a fighting style of fighting technique from all styles that work in a real fight. Most people don't know Bruce Lee was training in the grappling arts even before Gene Lebelle. He just didnt put it in his movies because he felt people could not see the best grappling moves were hidden from view
Bruce was trained by Grand Master Yipman. Yes, he became an actor in the tv series ‘The Green Hornet’, BUT HE WAS 100% AUTHENTIC MASTER MARTIAL ARTIST! Karen Abdul Jabar was one of Bruce Lee’s students.
Human being are the only creatures on the planet that don't have a cap on are potential if only everyone new that then we wouldn't come across something amazing like this every century to century's, fuck it ima start doing impossible things
Bruce Lee was 100% legit. He is the reason martial arts is a thing. you may have heard of a student of his by the name of Chuck Norris. you asked "why does he do that?" Greatness doesn't need a reason. Martial Arts wasn't something he did it was who he was. He was and will always be - "The Dragon"
@CannabisDreams No he didnt 🤣🤣 That is an urban legend from WAY back. Im surprised its still around considering Norris himself has denied it. Chuck Norris most certainly admired Bruce Lee but he never trained under him. When asked about it in an interview once he replied, “The fact is we are too bad to be his students, and he is too good to be our teacher.”
@@dagoelius UM yes he was, The documentary told me that chuck got training tips from Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee was into utilizing key moves from all forms of styles to make his jeet Kun du. After chuck Norris fought Bruce Lee behind closed door, Chuck started training with Bruce and get some of that jeet kun du, then chuck formed his own style with a lot of Bruces help and moves.
Thankfully, Lee was able to sneak in a few movies starting at the very last 1.5 year of his life. Prior to that...there are zero action movies, he was simply a veteran at live combat. In live situations he had fought; Black Belts, Pro Fighters, Ex military, Champions, 3rd degree Masters, Rival Martial Artists, and opponents that outweighed him by 100 pounds. His battle experience started as a young boy and lead all through out his teens + adulthoodhood. The few movies he DID get to make were only at the last 1.5 years of his life which has been a very brief opportunity for him to report his life experiences and give that insight into live combat. He only made 3 little movies plus One Hollywood film, a very short attempt at films but we're lucky he at least made them and snuck them right in JUST before he died to show us his insights on his personal life of hard combat. Lee is ranked by Sports Illustrated in the 50 Greatest Athletes of All Time, with near super human strength that could raise unbelievable
Also, for anyone who claimed he was perfect, he needed glasses for good majority of his life especially when he was off-screen and he was born with one of his legs slightly longer than the other. He had his own life challenges and learned to overcome them. One of my favorite small back stories with his training was that he had a sifu who made a deal with him: teach me how to dance and I'll teach you my martial arts. Bruce was not only a fighter and actor, but a dancer too. So for anyone who laughs at Patrick Swayzee for doing ballet at one time, just remember that the founding father of MMA did the ChaCha at one point in his life✌️
I believe he won a few dancing contest but regardless the dancing, acting ,an martial arts. Bruce Lee had a true heart he loved his family dearly an he was will to teach anyone from any walks of life whst he knew. No one was below him nor above.
I've taken 3 yrs of MMA. I see crazy fast hands and feet, and have held pads for some famous fighters. The very fastest fighters living are half the speed of Lee. What people ALWAYS miss is Lee's non-stop exercising. Even when traveling in planes or giving an interview, he was working his toes or fingers. Flexxing muscle groups. He was an EXCERCISE FANATIC!!! A fitness freak. His fast twitch muscles were off the charts. When combined with perfect techniques, THIS made him "superhuman" Nothing else. He was faster and more powerful than others. Period.

Bruce Lee was a steet fighter in China who fought for survival before he became an actor...Jackie Chan came up in a similar fashion without street fighting, he and Sam Hong and a few others were the Big 4 from China and these guys aren't actors but martial artist first and foremost.
@CannabisDreams very true in fact Jackie Chan Knows the original style of Tiger King Fu that he is that last to know. He showed it off in Forbidden Kingdom.
Yes Bruce Lee trained alot more in martial arts than the others. However Jackie Chan and the others used that martial arts and all other training to make movies Hong Kong cinema. They are still pretty good tho at fighting after all saw Bruce Lee during his prime and done movies and stunts too
bruce lee was a martial artist that BECAME an actor. some ppl doubt he could actually fight because he has not professional record.. but just by WATCHING him and understanding his workout routine and philosophy its OBVIOUS this man was on another level. his book INSTRUCTS you to gouge the eyes.. he practiced finger jabs, someting like over 1,000 a day i read or even more i cant remmeber.. if that is true you DONT want to fight a guy that can do 2 finger one handed pushups WITH ease AND practices finger jabs DAILY. his speed and reflexes alone would be too much for most ppl to handle.
There are witnesses who say Bruce was deadly which is no surprise because how hard he trained to know how to survive the streets. Tournament to him was not real fighting because of rules. Jesse Glover set up a fight between a Japanese black belt and Bruce Lee. Bruce ended up knocking him out in 11 seconds.
Bruce was the originator of mma mixed martial arts and was also one of the first to build his quick twitch muscles that's why he could drop someone with a 4 inch punch
No Bruce wasnt the “originator of MMA”. Vale tudo/Brazilian MMA existed in the 1920s long before Bruce was even born. But may be due to geographic (and the lack of internet) reasons it did not spread to other parts of the world. Bruce was probably the first person to champion the MMA idea in the East and West before it spread worldwide
As have literally thousands of others. A few dozen of which are legendary, and I would say, far superior to JKD. Every martial art in existence was invented by someone.
And not once did they mention all the styles from boxing to the throwing disciplines, and created his own style Jeet Kun Do. Matter fact that whole scene in Game of death with the Jui jitso dude was kinda messin with him. Actually all his scenes were about messin with masters if you pay attention, and everyone he killed were tournament winners. If he was fake they sure didn't have much to say about it even after his death.
Bruce Lee was highly quotable too. He infused his life with powerful statements largely Buddhist in nature. “You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.”
Bruce Lee was who every kid wanted to be growing up. We tried all the moves on each other! * He’s ready to fight any man on earth that comes at him. So am I, I carry a knife lol
Fun fact. 6:52 is the footage from Bruce Lee’s demonstration with one of his earliest students and best friend, Sigung Taky Kimura, who was actually my current Sifu’s(teacher’s) mentor that I’m currently training under now. Very humble people actually.
What do you say to the Bruce naysayers? They either sound jealous, just trolling, or could be racist- don’t want to give any credit to an Asian icon accomplishments……. I know, to you, a waste of time dealing with these losers.
Watch his movies!!! He was the master of all things martial arts!!! He trained hollywood actors to play fighters in movies but he was the martial artist that everyone wanted to learn from!!!
I think Bruce unlocked a portion of his mind that enabled him to have total control of his body. . . Cause normal people only use maybe 10% of their brain. He obviously was different and used much more. And when you do that it gives you the ability to control your body and your own metabolism and all that
I am not into the Meta but, through dedication and training I believe as you do. I believe he learned to control more of his body and metabolism than normal. He was able to will his body to break limits. We only see that in people like him and the truely tendsindent athelets. In this edit I got to mention the demigod like warriors from the past as well.
All those things the narrator said,he could do. The reason it seems made up is because he did something that no one does today,he was 100% dedicated to what he did! He worked out and trained every day of the week and did not take time off! Something young people aren't used to today.
Even yall have recognized the Goat MJ23 as different...same goes for the master Bruce Lee! Some are able to take their gifts to a superhuman level! #GodsAmongstUs👈
Guys It is all true about Bruce Lee, and ones in China were upset with him because he was training Non-Asians Martial Arts. He would train anyone who wanted to learn Martial Arts. Someone mentioned Chuck Norris. Norris fought Lee during a scene. Normally, the Arts are handed down to generation to generation. Jackie Chan started out as one of Bruce's stuntmen. When studio informed Lee to lay off his stuntmen, he kept Chan on staff. Remember that Arts were created thousands of years ago in China & Japan. Bruce even trained his kids: Brandon and Shannon Lee. Brandon like his father died young in 1993 at 28. Bruce has a younger brother named Robert Lee Jun-fai, musician.
Philippines and Indonesia trained also in their version of Martial Arts, same with Thailand. Some have argued that Japanese karate derived from Philippine kali style of martial arts.
What made Bruce Lee unique was...... when training in any marital arts there are moves that coordinate with other moves... sort of like dance steps to a waltz... Bruce broke out of that norm and could mix these moves up. Now, the thing is those moves are meant to flow nice and easy. Mixing them you had to be absolutely at the top of your physical game. Lots of strength and coordination to mix moves from different forms of martial arts into one seamless movement... Jackie Chan also did this once... where he fights like he is drunk. At the time it was un heard of...and would take opponents off guard...
he was training for himself.. he wanted to prove to himself that he can take on these challenges and go above and beyond.. To have self control, to have the psychology, to be better than his former being... he wanted to show others they can do the same with self discipline..
He did not train to fight someone, he was a martial artist. He even wrote a book about philosophies for the art of fighting. This was a lifestyle for him, you go to gym, he goes to gym but does more for tuning himself for fighting and speed.
You don’t make sense. He trained to be a real fighter, trained to fight anyone in the streets because that is reality when you’re out in the streets. I’m talking from experience, you’ll run into trouble makers with various fighting skill level . You have to be prepared against these scenarios. Bullies can appear from anywhere without warning. I lived in urban cities, I know this . Bruce to survive, you absolutely have to be a fighter because you have to know what you’re doing to get out of that situation.
Ayeyoooo this the first ever Bruce Lee reaction I’ve seen ever y’all on a COMPLETE NEW WAVE mane sheesh my first time stopping in as well. I’ve seen this video so many times on my own. Be water my bruhs 😎
O.K. my wife grew up idolizing Bruce Lee went into martial arts, her Sensei even ( When in Seattle for a tournament ) visited his grave. Keep in mind my wife was born in 1971, what young kids nowadays do not realize and to their detriment most of the martial arts have a philosophy and it is a way of life. He had a tumultuous childhood born to actors who actually toured in America ( his father deliberately named him Bruce...an American sounding name ) got into a lot of fights when he was growing up in China and his father was beside himself so sent him for training to improve his discipline. Yes...he's the real deal got into majour trouble with Chinese community in stateside for teaching martial arts while going to college. My wife can actually do the one inch punch when she was younger. She has boxing fractures in her hands from practicing the move, getting that kind of coordination takes hours of training as well as knowledge of your own body and using your weight as an advantage. She met his now world famous student Chuck Norris at that event in Seattle, he had a school and brought his students to compete. My wife was awestruck apparently and didn't know Chuck had started his own school ( by this point he'd done a few movies) Bruce Lee was a very humble man so is Chuck. Bruce didn't train you to just fight, it was all about self improvment and achieving balance in life....not actually beating the crap out of someone to prove your better.
I was born in 1966 and growing up in the 70s I had 2 childhood heroes 1was Bruce Lee and 2 was Evil Kenevel , I had a black light poster of Bruce on my bedroom wall along with Farah Fawcett lol 👍
Kareem Abdul Jabbar trained with Bruce Lee and credits that training for his long career in baseball. He did an interview about it . I remember as a kid in the 70s watching his movies on tv. There are a lot of documentaries about his death and the rumors surrounding it. His son was a child when Bruce died and eventually became an actor, and sadly died young like his father . He died from an accident on a movie set . God bless!
Ki different Yes, everything you see Bruce doing here was legit. There was a very good reason why he exercised this much. Are you ready to have your mind torn open? Everything you just watched. Bruce Lee do, was after he was a a paraplegic in a wheelchair He had a terrible back injury, and doctor said that he would never walk again. One day when he moved his toe, he realized that if I can do that, then I can focus really hard and walk again, and then if I can walk again then I can exercise. He started taking things to the extreme doing up to 2000 punches and kicks per hand and foot per day on his punching bag. He wanted to see the limits of the human body.
Bruce Lee was the creator of jeet kun do a devastating blend of wing Chun but with no fixed stance making it one of the most efficient and dangerous forms out there.
Yoooooo finished the video, the energy from you guys was hilarious. Guy on the right,Ki, was kinda overkill with his excitement lol but still enjoyable nonetheless. Reaction suggestion, Floyd’s sweet science of defense!! Beautiful art of defense that casual boxing viewers don’t appreciate.
@@richardlacey4923 Duh, stupid. That’s why I said he was overkill. Can tell he was boosting. Your 6th grade reference is the craziest reach I’ve seen on a comment. You’re terrible at roasting. But yes it’s non authentic. And we still haven’t gotten the Floyd defense video I wanted. #AllBlackLove RichardLacey. I’m 30 btw 😎 #90sBaby
Just because there's no one like him in this generation it's not real. Bruce spend his time honing his craft. There was no social media so he did not waste any time scrolling through fb or tiktok. I heard many keep saying he is fake just because their mind can't comprehend. But please show some respect to this legend.

It's just a nokia commercial for an n96 phone made to commemorate lee. The commercial was made in 2008. Nokia used an actor who looks like lee and some cgi
The power of the mind. You guys are cracking me up. There’s a documentary of him on UA-cam and Chuck Norris is interviewed quite a bit. Really good documentary and you will understand why he started fighting and movies were just kind of a bonus showing the skill.
When I was the fittest in my life I could only do 80, maximum 125 push ups with two hands. But Bruce Lee could do 200 push ups with only two fingers, the thumb and the index finger! Figure that out! Superhuman.
Bruce was trained by IP probably the best martial art master in modern history I saw a black and white video Bruce Lee kick a punching bag of the hook and the bag travelled a bout 6ft away before hitting the ground in his garden.
Joe Lewis the first world champ Kick boxer who trained with Bruce. Said that Bruce was the fastest puncher he’d ever seen. He also said that he punched liked a heavy weight. He knows because he sparred him. Which is impressive because Bruce at his heaviest was around 130lbs. Heavyweight class usually starts at 200lbs.
Sparred against him. Not spared. Fun fact Bruce sparred against Joe again, this time making JOE look incapable of keeping up with Bruce, couldn’t touch Bruce , but Bruce was tagging and hard because Bruce was pissed at Joe Lewis for bullying one of Bruce’s students, Herb Jackson. Ted Wong was there, so was Kareem Abdul Jabbar, see Bruce dominate these tournament fighters who want to learn JKD.
There was a Nokia phone commercial that had Bruce Lee playing ping pong with num-chuks. Ive even seen a video where a man was tossing match sticks at Bruce and he was striking them igniting the match sticks with num-chuks. Absolutely unreal skills.
He was ahead of his time The first Asian martial artist that show on an international screen. He had his own signature, style, charisma, speed etc.....GOAT of martial arts
When he kicked the guy in Enter the Dragon (the one in the white gi) and he flew back into 5 guys and they all go down... one of the guys broke an arm. Bruce Lee kicked a guy so hard he broke someone elses arm.
the guy in the whte gi was bob wall and apparently bruce bruised his sternum and now every time it rains it hurts can u imagine telling ur grandkids about tht lll

Vs ten!!
@@reneeallen3569 his footprint took up Bruce's whole torso lol
Yipman was a wing chung expert,,Bruce was an expert in most martial arts.

Fun fact. 6:52 is the footage from Bruce Lee’s demonstration with one of his earliest students and best friend, Sigung Taky Kimura, who was actually my current Sifu’s(teacher’s) mentor that I’m currently training under now. Very humble people actually.
What do you say to the Bruce naysayers? They either sound jealous, just trolling, or could be racist- don’t want to give any credit to an Asian icon accomplishments……. I know, to you, a waste of time dealing with these losers.
When your teacher told you it is disrespectful to point your finger at someone. Bruce took that very personal. 😂🤣
Watch his movies!!! He was the master of all things martial arts!!! He trained hollywood actors to play fighters in movies but he was the martial artist that everyone wanted to learn from!!!
He's real life is more interesting that those movies. Read books.
Yeah his movies fights were about show
I think Bruce unlocked a portion of his mind that enabled him to have total control of his body. . . Cause normal people only use maybe 10% of their brain. He obviously was different and used much more. And when you do that it gives you the ability to control your body and your own metabolism and all that
The average person doesn't die using only 10% of their brain..
I am not into the Meta but, through dedication and training I believe as you do. I believe he learned to control more of his body and metabolism than normal. He was able to will his body to break limits. We only see that in people like him and the truely tendsindent athelets. In this edit I got to mention the demigod like warriors from the past as well.
I really wish people would stop propagating this blatantly false myth.
No sir... it was through EXTENSIVE exercise.
Everyone uses their whole brain that 10% is bullshit however he trained his body and mid therefore he unlocked things that regular people can't do
bruce lee took the human body to the next level
All those things the narrator said,he could do. The reason it seems made up is because he did something that no one does today,he was 100% dedicated to what he did! He worked out and trained every day of the week and did not take time off! Something young people aren't used to today.
Even yall have recognized the Goat MJ23 as different...same goes for the master Bruce Lee! Some are able to take their gifts to a superhuman level! #GodsAmongstUs👈
This reaction was hella priceless 😂 love the content please react more to crazy strong Asians haha
Guys
It is all true about Bruce Lee, and ones in China were upset with him because he was training Non-Asians Martial Arts. He would train anyone who wanted to learn Martial Arts. Someone mentioned Chuck Norris. Norris fought Lee during a scene. Normally, the Arts are handed down to generation to generation. Jackie Chan started out as one of Bruce's stuntmen. When studio informed Lee to lay off his stuntmen, he kept Chan on staff. Remember that Arts were created thousands of years ago in China & Japan. Bruce even trained his kids: Brandon and Shannon Lee. Brandon like his father died young in 1993 at 28. Bruce has a younger brother named Robert Lee Jun-fai, musician.
It is true that filmmakers had to slow down filming speed when filming Bruce Lee.
Philippines and Indonesia trained also in their version of Martial Arts, same with Thailand. Some have argued that Japanese karate derived from Philippine kali style of martial arts.
he is doing side quests 🤣🤣🤣
What made Bruce Lee unique was...... when training in any marital arts there are moves that coordinate with other moves... sort of like dance steps to a waltz... Bruce broke out of that norm and could mix these moves up. Now, the thing is those moves are meant to flow nice and easy. Mixing them you had to be absolutely at the top of your physical game. Lots of strength and coordination to mix moves from different forms of martial arts into one seamless movement... Jackie Chan also did this once... where he fights like he is drunk. At the time it was un heard of...and would take opponents off guard...
You gotta watch him fight Kareem Abdul-Jabbar from the movie Game of Death🙏
he was training for himself.. he wanted to prove to himself that he can take on these challenges and go above and beyond.. To have self control, to have the psychology, to be better than his former being... he wanted to show others they can do the same with self discipline..
Bro w red hairs i love u so much😂. I've never seen reactions like u reacting.
😂
Thank you that means a lot fr 🙏🏾🙏🏾im happy you enjoy it
These dudes are entertaining as ""uck!
He did not train to fight someone, he was a martial artist. He even wrote a book about philosophies for the art of fighting. This was a lifestyle for him, you go to gym, he goes to gym but does more for tuning himself for fighting and speed.
You don’t make sense. He trained to be a real fighter, trained to fight anyone in the streets because that is reality when you’re out in the streets. I’m talking from experience, you’ll run into trouble makers with various fighting skill level . You have to be prepared against these scenarios. Bullies can appear from anywhere without warning. I lived in urban cities, I know this . Bruce to survive, you absolutely have to be a fighter because you have to know what you’re doing to get out of that situation.
@@eddiegee2940 trained..he wasnt a fighter.
@@cuzz63 Don't care. Lol, Bruce is somebody and you nobody. Keep the lies.
That's what they mean when they say a freak of nature
2 finger ..200 pushups
My body - don't you even think about it😂
Bruce was more interested in testing the limits of the human body (and mind) than fighting. The strongest part of him was his will.
Ayeyoooo this the first ever Bruce Lee reaction I’ve seen ever y’all on a COMPLETE NEW WAVE mane sheesh my first time stopping in as well. I’ve seen this video so many times on my own. Be water my bruhs 😎
Thoroughly entertaining 😂
It's so entertaining watching these guys discover the awe that was Bruce Lee for the first time.
O.K. my wife grew up idolizing Bruce Lee went into martial arts, her Sensei even ( When in Seattle for a tournament ) visited his grave. Keep in mind my wife was born in 1971, what young kids nowadays do not realize and to their detriment most of the martial arts have a philosophy and it is a way of life. He had a tumultuous childhood born to actors who actually toured in America ( his father deliberately named him Bruce...an American sounding name ) got into a lot of fights when he was growing up in China and his father was beside himself so sent him for training to improve his discipline. Yes...he's the real deal got into majour trouble with Chinese community in stateside for teaching martial arts while going to college. My wife can actually do the one inch punch when she was younger. She has boxing fractures in her hands from practicing the move, getting that kind of coordination takes hours of training as well as knowledge of your own body and using your weight as an advantage. She met his now world famous student Chuck Norris at that event in Seattle, he had a school and brought his students to compete. My wife was awestruck apparently and didn't know Chuck had started his own school ( by this point he'd done a few movies) Bruce Lee was a very humble man so is Chuck. Bruce didn't train you to just fight, it was all about self improvment and achieving balance in life....not actually beating the crap out of someone to prove your better.
I was born in 1966 and growing up in the 70s I had 2 childhood heroes 1was Bruce Lee and 2 was Evil Kenevel , I had a black light poster of Bruce on my bedroom wall along with Farah Fawcett lol 👍
Dana white (cro of UFC) once said Bruce Lee started MMA
Loved your reactions! 😁
These dudes got me dying!! LOL Bruce's 2 finger push up, I still can't do. Lol I've been trying for years....that shit is hard!! Lol
😭😭
i love it "don't even attempt it!" said with genuine concern for his well beimg
Love yar! Bruce is da GOAT! ;))
Kareem Abdul Jabbar trained with Bruce Lee and credits that training for his long career in baseball. He did an interview about it . I remember as a kid in the 70s watching his movies on tv. There are a lot of documentaries about his death and the rumors surrounding it. His son was a child when Bruce died and eventually became an actor, and sadly died young like his father . He died from an accident on a movie set . God bless!
Wait no way!!
@Ki Different he also made an appearance in one of his movies its called Game of Death from 1978.
@@KIDIffI copied the link from YT . ua-cam.com/video/n_CmwC0AusE/v-deo.html
@@m.c.1933 that's where kareem leaves the footprint on bruce's yellow suit ?
@@sr71ablackbird yes I believe so.
Bruce Lee was the father of MMA because he learn most martial art like Wing Chung, TaiChi, Kung Fu, wrestling.
He wasn't superhuman. He was trying to show what humans are capable of. Read The Tao of Jeet Kun Do.
Dude he literally turned himself into superhuman just like Saitama😂
FELLAS, Thank You for this Video of “THE MAN” of His Time, BRUCE LEE.
I'm🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. He was the martial artist inspirations of the 70s!! Many a people ran too training centers after seeing him!!
Watch his nunchuck tricks , the match trick will blow your minds😂
Table Tennis with the guys using nunchucks.
Ki different
Yes, everything you see Bruce doing here was legit.
There was a very good reason why he exercised this much.
Are you ready to have your mind torn open?
Everything you just watched. Bruce Lee do, was after he was a a paraplegic in a wheelchair
He had a terrible back injury, and doctor said that he would never walk again.
One day when he moved his toe, he realized that if I can do that, then I can focus really hard and walk again, and then if I can walk again then I can exercise.
He started taking things to the extreme doing up to 2000 punches and kicks per hand and foot per day on his punching bag.
He wanted to see the limits of the human body.
This my new favorite channel bros
Bro dat shit is realz, Bruce was real 100% legit bro!!
He was even untouchable going unarmed against a Japanese Swordmaster. IVE SEEN THE FOOTAGE IT IS UNREAL. In between takes on the set of Fist of Fury
Bruce Lee, years ahead of his time. A wisdom that transcends the rest and just a beautiful soul...R.I.P. Bruce Lee 🌺🍀🌺
Bruce Lee was the creator of jeet kun do a devastating blend of wing Chun but with no fixed stance making it one of the most efficient and dangerous forms out there.
R.I.P to the dragon 🐉 himself,never forgotten
I'm thinking of a line from "John Wick 2": The man, the myth, the legend." The difference: Bruce Lee was real.
Bruce knew extremely well that every motion of the body adds to power hence the 'tip tap shit'
He is changing the angles of his feet and shifting his weight to increase power and balance
I consider myself fortunate to having visited both Bruce Lee's and his son's Brandon Lee's gravesite in Seattle, Washington.
He didn’t even show the part where Bruce played ping pong with nunchucks. Bruce was on another level.
It should not be shown because it's not even lee but just a look-alike actor. That clip is an ad made by nokia in 2008
He was the real life karate master
im dying with yall reaction...... get another subscriber...keep up
He trained to be the best version of himself.
Bruce Lee was alive during the last age of the master's
Yoooooo finished the video, the energy from you guys was hilarious. Guy on the right,Ki, was kinda overkill with his excitement lol but still enjoyable nonetheless.
Reaction suggestion, Floyd’s sweet science of defense!! Beautiful art of defense that casual boxing viewers don’t appreciate.
Appreciate it fr we gon keep this up and bet we gonna do your suggestion
@@KIDIff bet bet.! 🔒
Lol, you guys would fall for anything.. a 6th grader can see the phoniness here!
@@richardlacey4923 Duh, stupid. That’s why I said he was overkill. Can tell he was boosting. Your 6th grade reference is the craziest reach I’ve seen on a comment. You’re terrible at roasting. But yes it’s non authentic. And we still haven’t gotten the Floyd defense video I wanted. #AllBlackLove RichardLacey. I’m 30 btw 😎 #90sBaby
Just because there's no one like him in this generation it's not real. Bruce spend his time honing his craft. There was no social media so he did not waste any time scrolling through fb or tiktok.
I heard many keep saying he is fake just because their mind can't comprehend. But please show some respect to this legend.
I love when he was lighting matches that were thrown at him with his nunchucks.
Bruce Lee was definitely superhuman I don't think there will ever be anyone like him again
Thankfully, Lee was able to sneak in a few movies starting at the very last 1.5 year of his life.
Prior to that...there are zero action movies, he was simply a veteran at live combat.
In live situations he had fought; Black Belts, Pro Fighters, Ex military, Champions, 3rd degree Masters, Rival Martial Artists, and opponents that outweighed him by 100 pounds. His battle experience started as a young boy and lead all through out his teens + adulthoodhood. The few movies he DID get to make were only at the last 1.5 years of his life which has been a very brief opportunity for him to report his life experiences and give that insight into live combat. He only made 3 little movies plus One Hollywood film, a very short attempt at films but we're lucky he at least made them and snuck them right in JUST before he died to show us his insights on his personal life of hard combat.
Lee is ranked by Sports Illustrated in the 50 Greatest Athletes of All Time, with near super human strength that could raise unbelievable
You should look up the videos of him playing ping pong with nunchucks and liting matches mid air with nunchucks it's crazy
It's just a nokia commercial for an n96 phone made to commemorate lee. The commercial was made in 2008. Nokia used an actor who looks like lee and some cgi
The power of the mind. You guys are cracking me up. There’s a documentary of him on UA-cam and Chuck Norris is interviewed quite a bit. Really good documentary and you will understand why he started fighting and movies were just kind of a bonus showing the skill.
Awesome video
His martial arts fame is what made him a movie actor.
Yep my top 3 bruce Lee, Michael Jordan, forrest gump
And Bruce Lee did a movie with Kareem Abdul Jabbar. Become water, my friend. Famous quote by Bruce Lee
Who ever suggested this get the 🏆 😁
(2k on its way! 😁🔥)
Fr 2k real soon
@@KIDIff Much blessings Mannn! Y’all got the hottest channel 🔥🔥🙏. Another classic video…he said “Ni**a I’m not fighting this Ni**a!”😅😅😭, I agree.
😂😂😂😂@12:41😂😂😂😂
my same reaction too
When I was the fittest in my life I could only do 80, maximum 125 push ups with two hands. But Bruce Lee could do 200 push ups with only two fingers, the thumb and the index finger! Figure that out! Superhuman.
Bruce was THE MAN, y'all!
They lied about his push ups it wasn’t 1500 straight it was 2000 😂😂😂 Lee is the G.O.A.T pointblank
Bruv.. You are witnessing the legendary Bruce Lee.
Bruce was trained by IP probably the best martial art master in modern history I saw a black and white video Bruce Lee kick a punching bag of the hook and the bag travelled a bout 6ft away before hitting the ground in his garden.
Joe Lewis the first world champ Kick boxer who trained with Bruce. Said that Bruce was the fastest puncher he’d ever seen. He also said that he punched liked a heavy weight. He knows because he sparred him. Which is impressive because Bruce at his heaviest was around 130lbs. Heavyweight class usually starts at 200lbs.
Sparred against him. Not spared. Fun fact Bruce sparred against Joe again, this time making JOE look incapable of keeping up with Bruce, couldn’t touch Bruce , but Bruce was tagging and hard because Bruce was pissed at Joe Lewis for bullying one of Bruce’s students, Herb Jackson. Ted Wong was there, so was Kareem Abdul Jabbar, see Bruce dominate these tournament fighters who want to learn JKD.
@@eddiegee2940 corrected
Fighting himself bro. We all should be.....our own worst enemy is ourselves
legend to the end
There was a Nokia phone commercial that had Bruce Lee playing ping pong with num-chuks. Ive even seen a video where a man was tossing match sticks at Bruce and he was striking them igniting the match sticks with num-chuks. Absolutely unreal skills.
Bruce Lee had his own Karate Studio.He trained other famous people including Chuck Norris.Bruce was a 9th degree Black belt. He was a Dragon.
No it was the other way around, Chuck trained under Bruce. Bruce was superior, much faster than Chuck
He was ahead of his time
The first Asian martial artist that show on an international screen.
He had his own signature, style, charisma, speed etc.....GOAT of martial arts
Legends never die
He was on a whole new different level then any of us he train to get better and better everyday.
When he kicked the guy in Enter the Dragon (the one in the white gi) and he flew back into 5 guys and they all go down... one of the guys broke an arm. Bruce Lee kicked a guy so hard he broke someone elses arm.
the guy in the whte gi was bob wall and apparently bruce bruised his sternum and now every time it rains it hurts can u imagine telling ur grandkids about tht lll
lol*
