"I think Bruce Lee is Bruce Lee, and Jean-Claude Van Damme is Jean-Claude Van Damme". Respect.
And I think I am me and you are you?
Great answer
Humble
Не обманул
The proper response should’ve been Bruce Lee as a legend I respect him but he’s him and I’m Jean-Claude Van Damme!

1988 was one of my happiest years. Damn how I miss the 80s, heart breaking those days will never come back.
Me too Jay.
I still listen to mostly 80s music.
Hard Rock and what was in the charts at the time.
That was literally like the BEST year of the 20th century...
Even I miss the 80s + 70s and I wasn’t even alive
Agreed mate
Today's more of couille vide 19 days, which can be translated by empty ball 19 days
Young and full of energy
One of the few celebrities who is a genuinely kind and warm hearted individual.
I'd like to believe that!...buuut the evidence does not always point that way! Still, I love JCVD, just awesome. All men want to be like him, all women want to be with him!!!
JBMaximize What evidence? He always seems really nice and generous with his time in all of the interviews I've seen him in. I remember him on "Hey Hey It's Saturday" years ago and he actually stayed around for the rest of the show after the interview was finished. He told the host "I like you Daryl, you're a nice guy", and when Daryl asked him what his favourite movie was in his career, Van Damme said "oh, they're all pretty bad" (not exactly true, because Bloodsport kicks ass, but I was surprised at his honesty about his career).
Yes. Any guy that loves animals, has a good heart. He's the best out of all 80s muscle actors... My opinion. 🤣💖
Phoenix Vanguard say that the stuntman whose eye he savagely gouged out during the filming of cyborg
Roberto Masensi that was an accident and he paid damages for that.
i remember being a teen in 1988-1989 spending a night at my friends house and he had had gotten bloodsport on vhs. that was the best night ever. played some nintendo and watched some good movies..bloodsport being the best of em
People back then seemed way more in-tune with the present moment compared to nowadays where everything is instantaneous pleasure, attention span keeps decreasing among everyone including kids & young adults, & now we have something everyone is obsessed about these days (our phones) that completely ruins the whole point of watching a movie when you pull it out. Less distractions will always be far superior than constant dopamine hits.
Sounds like an episode of Regular Show!! The 80s, good times!!!!
Best days man. Kids today have no clue.
This is why I love RUclips.. Stumbling on some old Van Damn interview from the 80's.
Funny reporter and great interview!
8 years ago 😂
"I did my split, I showed my muscles, and I said I'm the best and I'm not too expensive right now, take me now." LOL, he was so adorable. :)
That's how to go to ANY job interview by the way.
@@lastcosmonaut 😂😂
@@lastcosmonaut Works best with a great smile like his.
Then he unzipped his pants and said, how much do you really want to be a star.
Gave it up easy
Those old fashioned interviews. Silly, but somehow genuine and warm.
Right? I thought the same. Weird. Lol
Everything has to be done ironically now.
He nailed this role and he cemented himself as a great action star of the 80s and early 90s.
Vandamme was the reason i was the toughest kid in school. He was the reason i got into combat sports and later my line of work.....Much love and respect to him and all his fans too!!
I battered you in school day in day out for calling yourself Jean.
What was your line of work? A time traveling cop,a hired assassin,a soldier from the future,a leader of an international crime syndicate ring,or a kickboxer seeking revenge?
Bum on the street
@@SotPSotPSotP Oh so Lionheart
@@AzrialAlaria "Oh so Lionheart"...savage!
80s ruled. Anyone who wasn’t there I feel for you.
Totally agree
Agreed. Glad I lived through it!!
Hell yea best time to be a kid! I loved being a kid in the 80s it was a magical time!
thanks grandpa
I was there for the whole thing… except the first year. 😞
i love this music pure 80's style
nonodu09200 nome music????
Fight to survive - paul hertzog
KUMITE KUMITE KUMITE KUKITE! Yeah great song.
80s had many great songs
I have never seen this one, thanks for posting.
As a young, graduated teenager, this movie was epic for me. I will never forget coming out of the theater thinking, this guy I just watched is going to be huge, and for a time he was. He had the entire package, and a lot of charisma, wish things had turned out a bit different for him in regard to the self-destructive tendencies and later his bipolar diagnosis.
He is still one of my top 3 action movie heroes from my teenage years, and I think to this day, Double Impact is one of the best movies form the 90s for me. I really enjoyed JCVD's performance as twin brothers, it is just a feel-good movie for me, maybe that is weird.
There will never be another Jean-Claud Van Damme, he is still the man!
Double impact is my fav van damme movie aswell, he played both opposite roles so well. Peak acting. Not to mention great action and funny too.
he was one of my heroes when i was a kid...he's one of the reasons i've always been interested in martial arts and started kickboxing.
Did u kick any A tho?
Ya same. Legend! I think he does karate tho right?
then you grow up and see real fighters and find his muscles small and soft compared to real fighters in real time.
@@donaldrobinson7063 Nope, I still find JCVD inspirational and a badass
@@PauIdenino that is what Hollywood is for. I did go see Cyborg in 1989 summer going into my freshman year and member thinkin that his arch nemesis and his crew had a few ripped dudes that made my hero look pretty avg. Luckily he had cool weapons and was super super super still pissed he could not hold and stop his famly from falling in the well as he was a weak boy and the barbedwire that tore his hands hurt too much to save them. Ultimately letting them go killing them all. Only because of this traumatic flashback talking to that braless curly redhead big puckered top lip girl did he ultimately show how bad ass he would be in the future apocalyptic scenario. I admit this was bad ass back then.
3:36 the guy sparring with Van Damme is Mohamed (a.k.a Michel) Qissi, a very good friend of him. He played Paredes in Bloodsports and Tong Po in Kickboxer (one of the most badass Vilain of martial arts movies). You're welcome.
Van dame child hood friend
I noticed that in the sparring scene. Michel Qissi is awesome. Great to see him.
Oh wow.. I didn't realize he was also Tong Po! shave the head with a long ass pony tail and makes sense!
He was also in lionheart aswell...I think hes been in a few if jcvds movies
Qissi's brother also played the main villain in both The Quest and Lionheart.
I miss these days 1988 I was born in 79 the 80's were epic renting tapes for movies, some of the best movies of all time, and these best action actors so entertaining to watch. Like I said I miss these days someone build me a time travel device please lol
Jean Claude Vandamm,,, ----- he didn't use any gimmicks when he started the fight scenes, different pulleys and cables to make him fly in the air.
Everything was fair, practicing kicks and punches.
He is one of the last true fighter actors who made and shot movies the honest way.
Hats off to Van Damme and hats off to all the fighters who starred with Van Damme movies.
Glory to the honest fighters
@Tomeo55 Error, he also used cable pulleys in the movie. Undisputed ,, Scott Adkins
@Tomeo55 😂🤣😃 If you are convinced of it, then yes.
The best movie fight choreographer in history
I don't get tired of watching his movies, some A and B and C style. I don't care. Just to see him act they way he acts is good enough. Even my kids know who he is since I got more than 11 VHS MOVIES.😁 A legend that must be remembered
Same here 😄 my son has never seen his films because he’s too young, but he knows all about him!
Such a humble and easy going human being. I love him.
80's girls were much more attractive!
believe me, she has a carpet between her legs
MrZillas Well my eyes were looking at her face lol
MrZillas
That's OK !
I'll vacuum that carpet with my mouth !
if your luck you can almost see skin
Of course :)
There was such an innocence around that time. Today everything has to be dead-serious-gangsta-thug-corrupt-and-depressing.
Your so right, everything has to.be edgy and controversial, I miss characters like van dame. Even girls and boys were more innocent back then it seems. I'm 30, so was born in 1990, but doesn't take rocket scientist to see contrast.
It’s people inundating themselves with this constantly at such a young age.
@It Is Cool "Ice Cube - Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It " lol
It's only getting worse and worse too.. it's to come to a terrible end at some point soon. or a horrible change! like everyone for themselves!
maybe you should stop watching whatever you're watching all the time lmao
I envy my parents for being my age in this era 😔
I wish I could experience this era too! 😩
В России и в странах бывшего СССР у тебя много поклонников. Спасибо за фильмы! Многие начали заниматься карате и кикбоксингом глядя на тебя в кино.
He is the best for me. A legend... since my youth until today and a role model. Even if he has experienced a lot of shit. A fighter shows how he comes out of such situations again and continues his way. Stronger than before.
He spoke better english in the 80’s than now..
Lol
Jcvd que caballero y que guapo
Plus his accent sounds pretty good honestly
You're right 😆
Look up Arnold Schwarzenegger on Johnny Carson.
He spoke better English in the early 80s too...
This video is gold. GOLD. Thanks for posting it.
2:05 : Do you know how hard it is to do that spinning jump kick..and he did like it was nothing in a small space..that's amazing and alot of training
He made it look like nothing
back than they hand't social media, gsm, laptop etc they had more time to commit to something else like training, the amount of hours he commited to sports at that age ...
I don't really know but thought so as well, he did it as easy as some other people don't even tie their shoelaces.
Damn I miss the 80's and 90's!! 2022 SUCKS!!!
Those Women fasion statements in 80s..... Fantabulous
omg. this was so funny and adorable. 80s humor was priceless. haha
Jean Claude has excellent kicks.
It's his flexibility
And talent.
I thought his acting was great i never noticed the kicks
He has crazy flexibility the dude is like made out of rubber, lol
It would have been good to see him in a fight scene against Gary Daniels.
This is the greatest interview EVER! Such an awesome dude! JCVD Forever!
Nothing but love and respect for my man JCVD!
From a big fan from U.K!!!
we all know van damme hit that after that interview.....
LMAO!!
+Daniel Marin Her*, she's a person not an object
Lol he prob did he was fucking crazy back then smacked out on coke.
@@Ytomany i know he ended up doing ALOT of cocaine which is why his face looks so different now. But does ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA WHEN EXACTLY HE STARTED DOING COCAINE?? That's what I've been wondering. Because he looks clean here.
Paul Brown at the height of his career he started doing it because youknow Hollywood and he was an adventurous guy youknow the party guy
@DjOmega1984 Yes, he played Tong Po in Kickboxer (1989). His name is Michel Qissi, a good friend of Van Damme. Michel Qissi also played in Bloodsport, Lionheart and Kickboxer 1 & 2.
He never really got props for it back in the day but dude was incredibly charismatic
I just said the same thing. Im like wow...this guy is Hungryyy and has it all! Today hes much different and not so open or humorous as he used to be!
@@robd1329 he used to do cocaine, the drugs took their toll on his body & personality.
sparring in a weight room is easily the most 80's thing that has ever happened
That jump kick in the air was amazing!
"Bloodsport" and "The Quest" made my childhood. Thanks J.C.
That freeze in the end. THATS a million dollar smile if i ever saw one!
I'm sure I wasn't the only one alone in my room as an 8 year old kid singing this theme song while practicing the splits.
@Wildlife Warrior lol awe shucks 🤣
🎶Kumite, Kumite, Kumite, Kumite, Kumite, Kumite, Kumite, Kumite, Kumite!🎶
Matthew Lewis that song gets me fucking going
Anyone else believe JCVD would whoop Seaguls ass?
jcvd vs Bruce lee
steven is a fatass chicken shit
Brad Pitiful Of all the gruesome things I’ve seen, not to uppercase seagulls is the WORST
You monster
BRIANBA100 no...Bruce lee would murder him go look up all archive Bruce lee footage
Nah, Seagul is legend! Deadly aikido master and let's not forget he invented front kick and showed it to A. Silva and L. Machida who then ko-ed their opponents with it.
His smile tells a lot, you can feel he's genuinely a good fella :)
I love you jcvd,
The world need more people like you,"POSITIVE EXEMPLE"if you doesent exist ,i will never start the body building...L.O.V.E..
IN MY HOME JCVD IS WEL RESPECTED AND LOVED
I really miss those times.
In those days, my uncle would visit us few times a month. And he had always the VHS tape of Bloodsport with him. And re watching it everytime was never boring.
Love Van Damme! God I miss the 80s! :)
This was great! He looked like a regular 27yo guy but a little buff and the interviewer was pretty doesn't even feel like an interview quite a wholesome video.
Even the interview ended like an 80's Van Damme flick!
Thanks for sharing! 😃 4:50 🤣🤣
Jean Claude Van Damme was one of the few that actually went inside Kowloon city right before they demolished it. Crazy! But lucky to see the history there.
Thank you for posting this old video
After watching all of John Claude Van damme's movies I started training and eating healthy to get jacked up like him he's so muscular and he's a great actor and I love Bloodsport
Terrific movie with jcvd.
Hilarious interview. Van damme as it stands today, is the best martial artist actor in the world
Van Dam smashed after this interview.
one of a best movie bloodsport
So spontaneous 😬
But you are not a Tanaka!
Gigine Ahmad lmao
I can do it
Teach me
Mr tanaka: Why?
Jean cluade: to honor you shidoshie
seriously one of the best interviews
His voice sounded so different, so much higher O.o
Thats because he was 27 years old here. Your vocal chords age when u get older, it makes your voice deeper and rough sounding
The 80's was such a great time... thanks for the post, because it really took me back...👍🙏
i need a time machine to meet Julie
hell yeah! lol
Awesome! Thanks for posting!
I learnt 30% kickboxing just by watching JCVD & he is one of my idol
Same here
What a gem. Thanks for sharing.
You know he absolutely crushed it after this interview
I was thinking exactly the same.
Thank you Jean-Claude for all your Movies 🎥
You motivated me when I was a little kid and still to this day when I go to the gym 👍👍😂
Thanks for sharing this!
A few thoughts :
1) Jean-Claude is in phenomenal shape, and his karate is spot on in technical terms. Very pure technique, lovely to see.
2) Nice to see a throwback to another time where we did not take ourselves so seriously but we got on, had fun and got things done.
3) At 3:37 Is Jean-Claude sparring (lghtly) with none other thanTong Po?! (Mohamed Qissi)
4) Nearly 34 years after the move came out and I saw it at the cinema, before seeing it again loads of times, sometimes alone sometimes dragging another person (my best mate, also a karateka, my dad, my mum, another mate), and despite my creaking joints, I STILL find this inspiring!
Nice cameo in sparring by Michel Qissi who played Tong Po in Kickboxer and Parades in Bloodsport.
True story I met this kid who would train regularly at our school gym during lunch. He took off his shirt one day and he was bigger than every one of the kids in the room. I asked him how he trained. He said he did calisthenics and Taekwondo. He said he was inspired by Stallone, Van Damne, and Arnold. I will never forget this dude...
You seem impressed by that. I would too probably. Haha!
Soo natural
It is not about who is better. They all have strong points and weak points, that's human. I ever have liked Jean-Claude, as a person. he IS fascinating and inspiring and he is a good person.
Epic. Thanks for this video
Kicking as high as 8' and a jumping side kick at 6' high is beyond impressive. Great man. Not to mention a humble man.
The best Van Damme we have ever seen, good shape💪😘👍.
He's got the best body period
This is the most creative interview, love it!
best kicks of the industry....
"Wanna see one of my special kicks!"
I miss the 80s and 90s so much. Glad I was alive to witness those times.
That was so 80s
Amadeus Eisenberg Coke was cheaper more shit got done at higher speeds. SNOWPLOW TIME
The greatest interview ever!
sparring with tong po
what? thats not tong po, thats Paco you idiot! TOng po is from another movie.
His real name is kaissi is from morocco he was the best friend of vandamme actualy
Tom De La Cruz 1st he played peredez in bloodsport and yes he played tong po..
Mike Spike is the same actor,stupid)
Mike Spike Wow, you got 2 things completely wrong in one comment. Well done! The guy he is sparring with is Michel Qissi who played Suan Parades in Bloodsport and played Tong Po in both Kickboxer 1 and 2 with heavy makeup. Paco was the Kickboxing specialist Van Damme fought in the Semi Finals.
omg that's Julie Moran??? Soo different in her 80's do. 💓🔥
sparring partner is actually tong po the villain from kickboxer/ and the guy whos leg been kick out by bolo yeung in bloodsport 3:38
+Gunny Akdo Good Catch!
Rubbish sparring partner isn't tong po . Tong po real name was tong po u idiot and he was Bulgarian . The guy sparring is a close friend of van damne
this guy is michel qissi aka tong po jackie soprano
+jackie soprano the guy in the video is michel qissi, he played tong po in the first and second kickboxer, in the first movie tong po is mistakenly credited as himself.
+jackie soprano go search for tong po in google you'll get what you want .
one the first hollywood superstars who used the quote "eat clen, tren hard anavar give up."
Whatever people may think of him now is irrelevant.
In his prime, he had some of the best kicks and flexibility ever seen on the big screen.
All out - he had the potential to beat anyone in the ring!!!!!
He has an amazing flexibility, his kicks look very unique. Not a fighter though, it's more like dancing. A pro would see most of those kicks coming because he sets them up by bringing his leg out straight then raising his knee really high and then firing the kick. He would get chopped down by low kicks. But it would have been interesting if he went from point fighting in Belgium to Dutch style amateur kickboxing and worked his way up to the pro leagues. The natural ability would have blended well with actual ring fighting. It takes years and years of sparring and amateur fights, along with studying under a good coach to get good at ringcraft. It's many things, footwork, learning to relax, slip, parry, take punches, combinations, feints, timing, setting traps, mastering boxing, blocking low and high kicks. It's like getting a PhD, takes time.
A spinning back kick has never landed in Glory or One, at that level it's so telegraphed you would get kicked out of the air mid-spin. His kicks are beautiful. They would be easily blocked. Watch Johanathan Haggerty kick pads. One thigh kick would end the fight without years of training your legs.
Probably hit it that evening. Nice!
Quite possibly the greatest man to ever live besides me.
I agree !... um wait !
Lol
jeff afe somebody forgot to take their medicine 😅
He lives next door to you?
Steve Ozone He’s lying its second next door! I live in the middle.......of somewhere :)
This is awesome!!! Lol wish bolo was in this, BLOODSPORT STILL BEST MA MOVIE!!!!
wish we had this Van Damme today. He is always so serious and mean looking in his movies. he has good range and even comedy. Not sure why he dont use it..
When Tong Po had hair . 👍👍🖐️😆😆😆
That sparring fight is as real as what frank dux claims to be
+John Trollander Post a video with you showing him what a *real* fight is.
+Judah Soremy He has troll on his name , just ignore him
sure, I am a troll because frank dux is soo real right?
John Trollander you dont need sarcasm to troll lol, of course Frank was fake, we all know
frank ducks is lame ducks...
Teach Me I Can Do It! Bloodsport were great!
My inspiration since my childhood to love training myself & to love action/martial arts movies.
uno de mis ídolos de juventud saludos VAN DAMME
hahaha this was awesome! Reporters these days are too serious, this is great to see. Also Van Damme kind of play sparring with Michel Qissi (who played Tung Po in Kickboxer, and also Parades in this Bloodsport.)
I will say the best answer to the Bruce Lee question I have ever heard
