The final fight in Drunken Master 2 took 4 months to film. One week is typical, but Benny is saying that it was non-stop and they basically lived on the set.
I would argue it's the best duel in martial-arts movies history, it's so well choreographed, and a perfect mixture of flashy and more direct stuff... The Jet being a real, legit fighter added credibility to it of course, and Jackie Chan is incredible as usual...
Astonishing fact about Benny "The Jet" Urquidez: He was reigning champion for 27(!) consecutive years . The longest period of being champion in all of professional sports!!Simply amazing!
Silverforce Without a doubt. In fact both films where they fight are awesome choreography. Love both of them them as they are so humble. Actors yes but true Martial Artists, they have my respect.
in the aspect of martial arts. That true. But that just because the first 2 police story and project A dont have any the martial artist ego moment. as action movie, they are better. dont get me wrong, this great. but that 4 movies imo is JC best work
Many people don’t realize this is an excerpt from a much longer interview. It appears that I cut Benny off at the end, but that was just due to editing. I drove 3 1/2 hours one way just to get this interview. Believe me, I got a lot more than five minutes!
Jackie said in his autobiography that every day he'd poke Benny by saying: OK, let's fight for real, and Benny would always say: anytime Jackie, anytime.
kira chew he’s also one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met. About 10 years ago, when I attended a banquet for the Martial Arts History Museum, Benny came and introduced himself to me! I was speechless!
The way his eye sparkle when he talks about the stuff he did in the movie is inspiring. This dude (and Jackie) both love what they do so much and it shows in the performance. Benny is an ultimate lad
Man this woman by far one of the best interviewer I've ever seen. Patience and let people tell their story and no cut in interruption. Love it so good to watch. But it's just too short!
You all don’t know how much this interview meant to me. I always wanted to hear what it was like, because I knew long ago that they actually fought for the scene! Hats off to both of these legendary martial art masters and my childhood martial art icons! I lived this with all my heart!
Debbie, I'm so glad that I came across your channel. It was a honor to watch this interview with Benny The Jet Urquidez. I watched all the Jackie Chan movies as a kid in the 1980's and it was great. Thank you My first movie being The Big Brawl in 1984, I was 8 and never stopped watching Jackie Chan movies from that day on. Benny and Jackie had some of the greatest fights on film, PERIOD!! :)
That fight between Jackie and Urquidez near the end of Wheels on Meals is easily my favourite fight scene in any film. Probably my favourite Jackie Chan film, and Yuen Biao had a couple of great fights in it too. Great to see Urquidez talking about it here -- he seems like a genuinely nice guy!
batlin , the raid rama and andy vs mad dog was my favourite off all time til i seen this fight scene, you should check it out though i think you will like it
Watch, i think, episode 19 of Adkins' podcast, The Art of Action. It features Benny talking about his time with Jackie and includes Wheels on Meals and Dragons Forever. It appears that Jackie left a hugely positive impression on Benny, who sings his praises.
Benny the Jet Urquidez, Ron Vanclief, Dennis Alexio, Super foot and Don the Dragon Wilson were fantastic in the ring and in the movies. OSU and respect for all of these Masters. 🙏🏼🐅🐉
That's what I was thinking. This guy has been in many fights and his hands have taken a beating as they're giving a beating. Still wouldn't fuck with Benny.
Debbie you interview Benny like his on a fight set it's so fun to see champ Benny on anything either it's interview or his teaching a student God bless and keep it comin'
I remember watching a documentary about martial arts movies and it noted that fight scene from Wheels on Meals as the greatest fight scene ever recorded - after watching it, I had to agree it was amazing. I was always amazed how great Jackie was, but seeing Benny The Jet against him, knowing that Benny was an actual champion kickboxer, put him on another level. Yes Jackie was and is an amazing movie star and stuntman, but it always struck me that Benny is the real deal fighter! - he proved his skills in the ring - movie stars rarely do that
Showing much love & respect to the one of the greatest legend in martial arts history.Meals On Wheels is one of the best movie.He is one of the best.long live Sir Benny.thank you for the great contribution in the action movies.greetings from Philippines.😊🙏👍
The man had a solid jaw , amazing talent , a pair of wrecking balls for hands and thrown kicks as natural as a Chinese person eating with chop sticks 61 wins 59 ko’s no losses
Without sacrifice nothing great come out....and that is why this fight scene still surfaces on internet and generations after generations enjoy this scene...coz of the heart n soul these two guys and the entire team put in. ❤❤❤❤
That was an epic fight scene! The fight scene that really stands out to me between Jackie and Benny is the one they had in Dragons Forever. As a kid, my jaw dropped seeing how tough Benny is!
Exype There is a full one hour episode of this interview. One of the longest interviews I have done. You can find it at CMAC.TV-go to “On demand,” then “Series guide”, and then Martial Arts Mania. Benny was a great guest!
No need to talk down on a different athlete. Mayweather has been tested over and over, and just played the game that is boxing to be successful and win fights. Just like Urquidez he fought in a very competitive division and did very well. Two great champions in their own category.
I was looking for that fight scene on youtube and after I found it, this video came up on my suggested. I wanted to know what it was like on the set for Benny and Jackie Chan. What's just as exciting is finding out this was interview was filmed where I live.

I'll never forget his kick that legitimately blew out candles.
You mean bon fires
After effects. lol
@@Leprutz it was real lmao
@@Leprutz after effects in 1975 ,sure
Ainda bem que nesse mundão aí afora tem
He said It took about a week to film one of the most iconic fight scenes in movie history. You can't fake that type of dedication.
The final fight in Drunken Master 2 took 4 months to film. One week is typical, but Benny is saying that it was non-stop and they basically lived on the set.
@@jp3813 The final fight in _Drunken Master 2_ had many moving parts in it. Far more than _Wheels On Meals._
@@D2Kprime Because they spent four months working on it.
Many legendary scenes can take a while.
The shower scene from Psycho took 9 days! All for 40 seconds of footage.
You're stupid if you think he's bluffing
Jackie vs Benny in meals on wheels is one of the best jackie fights
提督Ｔｏｓｕｔｏ its one of the best fight scenes ever and best Jackie Chan fight scene hands down..
Gokul Nath its one of the best ever.. but not nr 1 Jackie fight
I've always favored the scene from Dragons Forever - ruclips.net/video/DsUclzcY8HE/видео.html
But both are wicked :)
I would argue it's the best duel in martial-arts movies history, it's so well choreographed, and a perfect mixture of flashy and more direct stuff... The Jet being a real, legit fighter added credibility to it of course, and Jackie Chan is incredible as usual...
Except it's called Wheels on Meals.
Astonishing fact about Benny "The Jet" Urquidez: He was reigning champion for 27(!) consecutive years . The longest period of being champion in all of professional sports!!Simply amazing!
Didn't he also retire undefeated?
@@mikekirkland2487 He lost at least one that I'm aware of... still a badass in my book!
@@mikekirkland2487 I'm pretty sure his unofficial record was 200-1-1. An astonishing achievement.
@@lonestar6709 Geese! That's amazing
No shit, wow??
That fight scene with Jackie is THE BEST martial arts scene in cinema history. The impacts felt brutal, and the pace was lightning!
Silverforce Without a doubt. In fact both films where they fight are awesome choreography. Love both of them them as they are so humble. Actors yes but true Martial Artists, they have my respect.
Silverforce Thanks to Sammo Hung, who always makes Jackie look his best.
in the aspect of martial arts. That true. But that just because the first 2 police story and project A dont have any the martial artist ego moment. as action movie, they are better. dont get me wrong, this great. but that 4 movies imo is JC best work
It's second best and it's inspired from the greatest one, *Colosseum Climax Fight* from Way Of The Dragon
Dragons Forever is even better 👌
Many people don’t realize this is an excerpt from a much longer interview. It appears that I cut Benny off at the end, but that was just due to editing. I drove 3 1/2 hours one way just to get this interview. Believe me, I got a lot more than five minutes!
@Hi I did. It’s 58 minutes long and it is posted here on RUclips!
Jackie said in his autobiography that every day he'd poke Benny by saying: OK, let's fight for real, and Benny would always say: anytime Jackie, anytime.
True,Benny says the same
On behalf of the asian community and a fan of martial arts movies, Mr benny is undoubtedly a real powerhouse and that fight scene is legendary.
kira chew he’s also one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met. About 10 years ago, when I attended a banquet for the Martial Arts History Museum, Benny came and introduced himself to me! I was speechless!
You might want to try the Egyptians
The way his eye sparkle when he talks about the stuff he did in the movie is inspiring. This dude (and Jackie) both love what they do so much and it shows in the performance. Benny is an ultimate lad
Man this woman by far one of the best interviewer I've ever seen. Patience and let people tell their story and no cut in interruption. Love it so good to watch. But it's just too short!
Thank you. This was just an excerpt from an hour long interview which I shall upload someday when I have the time.
Right, such a treasure and it's almost unknown on RUclips.
@@KungFuQueenie and benny is such true humble man
keep it in your heart even meeting benny is a blessing a wise sensei, and a powerfull warrior@@KungFuQueenie
I'm glad he's still looking healthy. Thanks for the upload.
Jay Grapes would like to meet him he looks like no frills kind of guy who tells it like it is
Who would love to see Jackie and Benny sit down together and talk about this?
I love how benny is so happy to tell this story the interviewer doesnt even need to ask questions he just talks 😁
The jet is a real warrior. He never hit his opponent more than he had to.
You all don’t know how much this interview meant to me. I always wanted to hear what it was like, because I knew long ago that they actually fought for the scene! Hats off to both of these legendary martial art masters and my childhood martial art icons! I lived this with all my heart!
I love Wheels on Meals but the fight scene between them in Dragons Forever was pretty wicked too.
His eyes are still intimidating even at his age
because he is oldskool warrior
His fighting style influenced me during my taekwondo sparring tournament way back when I was a teenager... God bless you Benny sensei!
...and his technique inspired me to breeze through my taekwondo black belt grading! Benny is the best !!
Could watch that fight scene over and over. That spinning back kick from Benny while he takes off his jacket in one motion was sick.
Sick and fast!
Debbie, I'm so glad that I came across your channel. It was a honor to watch this interview with Benny The Jet Urquidez. I watched all the Jackie Chan movies as a kid in the 1980's and it was great. Thank you My first movie being The Big Brawl in 1984, I was 8 and never stopped watching Jackie Chan movies from that day on. Benny and Jackie had some of the greatest fights on film, PERIOD!! :)
In a recent interview, Jackie says he still want to fight with Jet,haha
Where can I see that?
That fight between Jackie and Urquidez near the end of Wheels on Meals is easily my favourite fight scene in any film. Probably my favourite Jackie Chan film, and Yuen Biao had a couple of great fights in it too. Great to see Urquidez talking about it here -- he seems like a genuinely nice guy!
batlin , the raid rama and andy vs mad dog was my favourite off all time til i seen this fight scene, you should check it out though i think you will like it
What bout Sammo Hung hw was underrated too
I really like how cool and funny he is. A legend :)
I’m going to see him this Saturday!
That fight scene is one of the best hand to hand fight scenes ever.
I can’t decide if their fight in Wheels on Meals or Dragons Forever is their best. Both scenes are tremendously good.
Honestly I found the fight scene with Dragons Forever a bit better but yeah both scenes are amazing
Mr Jet I just want to say thank u for giving us the best fight scene ever
Man Benny seems like such a cool guy.
That's so awesome! One of the best fight scenes i've ever seen
One of the best fights ever. They both were at their primes. Amazing
All I've ever heard were stories of Benny now I finally get to see
Watch, i think, episode 19 of Adkins' podcast, The Art of Action. It features Benny talking about his time with Jackie and includes Wheels on Meals and Dragons Forever. It appears that Jackie left a hugely positive impression on Benny, who sings his praises.
Watched the movie as a kid, and I will never ever forget that fight scene.
Nice to see Benny again....
Benny The Jet one of my favorites and a true living legend!!
You look like Terry crews
That was my favorite fight scene ever. Benny is a blast👍
Awesome video. Living legend.
Benny the Jet Urquidez, Ron Vanclief, Dennis Alexio, Super foot and Don the Dragon Wilson were fantastic in the ring and in the movies. OSU and respect for all of these Masters. 🙏🏼🐅🐉
Benny seems like a really cool dude. Loved hearing him recounting that time, he really had a blast doing it
So nice how this isn't petty or hateful. Nothing but a good attitude. I'm so happy to see this
It's so nice when people talk to each other with respect.
Top 3, if not the greatest fight scene ever filmed.
Best fight scene ever!! From watching it on video tapes to this day. Amazing choreography, and you can see it's them fighting!
Benny the Jet ..LEGEND and is the the inspiration behind KEN from Street Fighter
No, that was Joe Lewis, another kick boxer.
Thank you for this great interview.
Hands down the best one on one fight in cinema. Fast and, for a movie, pretty realistic with great action and real world counters.
Would love to see them again on a movie while they are still kicking ❤️
Awesome interview about one the best fight scenes ever made.
What a legend and one of the best movies ever
Thanks for sharing. Great fight scene Benny and Jackie were in it makes it special to get a perspective of all the work that went into it
Even me I can't miss to see this amazing scene..now days...thx for everything u did in this film industry..
This is truly amazing. Thank you so much for the post, Ma'am.
Best fighting scene ever made…
Super interesting interview. And Sensei Benny is a true gentleman in addition to being a great fighter and martial artist 🙏🙇♂️
You know a Martial Artist is very skilled when the suspenders and a bow-tie makes then intimidating.
Real legend
Benny's the GOAT when it came to real fight / cinema fight crossovers. Always the champ!
This interview was SO enjoyable! Thank you for posting this video!
what a great man benny ill never forget u
From challenging each other on the first meeting to later become so close and friendly, that's the most bro thing ever.
wow ! great interview ! thanks for letting him share his experience about this.
1:31 damn his thumb...
Maybe an injury or something
Fingers of a fighter!
That's what I was thinking. This guy has been in many fights and his hands have taken a beating as they're giving a beating. Still wouldn't fuck with Benny.
Pretty sure he can still kick like a mule lol
Could be arthritis. Still can kick ass.
Amazing to find this interview of Benny. Legend.
Old is Gold. Thank you very much Guys.
Debbie you interview Benny like his on a fight set it's so fun to see champ Benny on anything either it's interview or his teaching a student God bless and keep it comin'

I got a chance to meet Benny the Jet at the Jet Center in Van Nuys while stationed in SoCal ,many years ago. Super nice guy and one of the greats!
I love Benny - he's so nice and open in interviews. And brilliant at fighting of course.
You are a VERY good communicator.. so professional and understanding of situations.
Showing much love & respect to the one of the greatest legend in martial arts history.Meals On Wheels is one of the best movie.He is one of the best.long live Sir Benny.thank you for the great contribution in the action movies.greetings from Philippines.😊🙏👍

Great video and interview!
I am so happy I found Benny
Though i've seen most of Jackie's movies, the fight scene with Benny in dragons forever is my favourite ❤
That was an epic fight scene! The fight scene that really stands out to me between Jackie and Benny is the one they had in Dragons Forever. As a kid, my jaw dropped seeing how tough Benny is!
probably the nicest guy for someone so deadly on the planet. just seems like an incredible human being.
Cool to see that Benny is humble as hell about everything. He comes across as a really great guy 🙂
Great interview...! Benny the Jet is a timeless legend...and nothing comes close to that fight scene..
Awesome interview, very entertaining.
Great Interview! Thank you :)
THIS MAN IS JUST THE BEST.
Always love Benny the JET true Martial Arts!!!
Great interview
Good video, thanks for sharing.
Benny was Dangerous in that movie. In both presense and deeds. I love it became about fighters spirit and rivalry.
I love this man!
Legend.. One of the greatest ever❤
He's still in great shape .A Legend
A fierce fighter, an outstanding teacher and a charming and delicate gentleman
This is the most epic story i've heard! Really awesome! I want to see more like this

@@KungFuQueenie Thank you!
That Benny is a great gent. Top man. His enthusiasm never diminish.
This is the real champion of champions. Better than Boring Floyd Mayweather.
Mentioning Floyd's name is an insult to this legend.
I bet you have wet dreams of floyd whilst you sleep
No need to talk down on a different athlete. Mayweather has been tested over and over, and just played the game that is boxing to be successful and win fights. Just like Urquidez he fought in a very competitive division and did very well. Two great champions in their own category.
Mayweather must have really hurt you badly. Youre a bigger fan of his than you even realize smh
@@djoetma Well said
Wow. Mad respect for Benny The Jet. He was and is a badass.
that was the best fighting scene ever... amazing
