This was one of my favorites as a kid, and still love it today. I really enjoyed the depth you went into explaining the fighter characters and their backgrounds.
Habby used to live over the back fence from me in Broome, western Australia,in the afternoon there'd be all these little black kids with the biggest smiles watching him training .He was really cool ,never passed locals without saying hello.He used to bounce at the local bars,no trouble when he was working, really nice guy.
I absolutely love the quest. It's like the prequel to Bloodsport. Van D is the man out of all martial arts actors. At first I thought 'The Quest' was just reimaging/reboot of 'Bloodsport. These movies are rhe movies I'll get my kids to watch when their I'll and off school as they did me the world of good. Love the channel by the way Viking Samurai.
As Brick Bronsky's personal manager for his acting work in motion pictures, I discovered your very detailed inclusion of him in your report here. Brick Bronsky/Jeff Beltzner passed away on August 22 at age 57. Bronsky fans can see him as the lead character in the action/horror feature "Masked Mutilator" which was released in 2019 and is streaming now on Amazon Prime, RUclips Movies and Tubi.
Damn nooo!! Another one gone!!! This hurts to hear! Kitao, Stefanos and now Brick. That hurts me right in the childhood because I love this movie so damn much. May the light shine on their souls forever. 💙
I really enjoyed this clip! Love to know more about the extras. I noticed them in other films way back in the 80s and 90s. Love that there are good TKD fighters in there!
I trained under Mestre Cesar in Bahia in Capoeira back at the time of the millenia. He told me that there was some tension between him and the French fighter. The French fighter wanted to fight Van Damme, and there was tension. He is a striking coach at MMA masters now but his understudy Mestre Sarigue teaches Capoeira at MMA Masters. Mestre Cesar taught Sarigue since he was a child the same time I trained with them.
This is Fucking Hilarious. HAHAHA! I don't know where to start. I had a Weird Dream the other Day. But I had a Dream. That I was in 1980's. *The Dream Team* was there. Michael J Fox, Ralph Macchio , Chuck Norris. Tom Cruise and You was There. You was actually The Head or the Captain of some Fraternity House. It Looked like a Cross between Xavier's Boarding House and the Stairs from "Risky Business" where Tom Cruise did his Iconic Dance with the Sunglasses. And I remember I went down the Stairs and I Saw Ma MAN! HAHAHA! *Van Damme*!!! *IN HIS PRIME!* with his Black Wifebeater. And He was doing his Iconic Signature Kicks and I woke up Laughing Hysterically. Because You Got Mad at Me that I didn't do Van Damme's Split Kick! It was a Really Fun Dream Man. Definitely One of the Most Memorable Hilarious Dreams I Will Never Forget.
@@VikingSamurai Well, Out of all The Vicious Nightmares I been Having I have to Thank You and Van Damme for this One ! HAHAHA! EDIT: Sometimes things don't Appear to Translate Well in Text, As it would it Person. But definitely to Get a Good Laugh I wouldn't mind seeing You make this as a Parody. That would make My Day HAHA. Anyway's Looking forward to Your next Van Damme Video !
Good video, a lot of background to these guys, I didn't realize how much Van Damme put into this. I may rewatch this, because when I saw this as a teenager I didn't care for it.
Forgot to mention that Kitao stubbornly refused to work a wrestling match against John Tenta a.k.a. Earthquake. His behavior resulted in his immediate firing from the promotion.
Wong wrote a book called dynamic strength which is a technique more commonly called dynamic tension in which you flex a muscle (typically the arms) and them move slowly. His explanations were kinda silly but the technique may have some legitimacy. I think you can still buy it for cheap. in 2000 it was eight bucks. there is also a video version
GOD DAMN you no ur shit lol i told him the same thing it would of been a young form of tang soo do or one of the styles of chinese kung foo they were the most popular around the time
Actually the Term Tae Kwon Do didn't come around until 52. After WWII there were martial arts schools that cropped up that were called Kwans. Each had their own style. The combination of those styles along with some of Taekkyon which was the historical martial art of Korea which gave birth to Tae Kwon Do. The fighter in the movie is most likely using Subak which is a Korean style of bare hand fighting which is why he's not throwing kicks, it is more a hand technique style which incorporates wrestling.
The last videos to the channel about "The Quest" figthers were so good that i feel like to wating again this movie from 1996. Is not a great Van Damme movie, but the figth scenes are okay and the cast made a good job on screen.
How do U get a complete collection of Jean Claude Van Damme movies 🎥! He REALLY LOOK OUT for True Martial artists from around the globe 🌎! As director he made the most of his power! Not since Bruce Lee have I ever learned a martial arts film 🎥 Star surrounded himself with martial warriors from Diverse backgrounds! WHY TO GO JEAN 😊👍👍👍👍👍
Love these video uploads. Big JCVD fan for years and your dedication and time doing all these are very much appreciated. Still love Van Damme,so much more than an action star. Hed be BRILLIANT in mpre comedy and I think he should be Poirot in a film like downey jrs Sherlock holmes,hed be Awesome.
Congratulations on reaching 17k subs. You earned every one and you'll continue to grow, as there is a Hunger for your amazing content. Thanks, for all that you do. Terrance will support you all the way.👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍 TERRANCE OUT
Recently discovered your channel and have been binge watching your stuff for pass 4 hours.. I'm also a huge JCVD fan, so I'm digging the videos on him. Any chance of doing a future video of your top JCVD movies?
These films were classic van dam was my favorite action star of the 80s into the 90s. Thanks for the time and research revisiting these classics. I am also on a work out routine and does having more protein in your diet cause better weight loss , and muscle tone? Thanks
As much as I enjoyed this movie, and it was very much projected to the ages of 6 to 14 year old market, it has too many similarities to Bloodsport without the scandal and Shaun Duetz guy, you know the Ninja touch of death guy. I did enjoy this clip.
I love this movie and its storytelling. I watch it a lot on dvd. Even though it is similar to Bloodsport, the fighters seem to be more of actual characters in this one because of their backgrounds and representation. This is definitely one of the best movies Van Damme put out when he was a bankable star. I found it particularly cool that even tho he is french, JCVD didn't decide to either portray the main villain as french or he himself represent the country. He didn't even write the fighter as a legit threat to him lol. Considering that Savate is a strong discipline, it just doesn't have the agility to keep up with most of the disciplines. He would've been outmatched severely against the American, Spanish, Chinese, Siam and Mongolian fighter. The Brazilian fighter straight up murdered him.
@@GMunoz-oj5zb At the time the movie takes place, Jiu Jitsu was well known in Brazil but was still developed by its pioneers to be renowned all over the world. They developed it in 1920. Movie: 1925 YES, it could've been in the movie but it would've been too unlikely that an experienced fighter would be renowned enough to participate, after only competing in the sport for 5 years. The reason why the Ghang Gheng was such a big deal, was because its fighters were world class. Capoeira is an older art and Brazil's representation, which is not useless, brother. When I first got into kickboxing, one of my trainers was a Capoeira practitioner since he was a kid and the dude could move. His kicks were just so on point. In a real fight, you'd be too vulnerable using Capoeira with a more grounded fighter but not necessarily useless. Just sharing the info from what I know of it personally.
Favorite Fighters for me Was , Stafano , Ceasar , Qissi and Wong, and JCVD of course I use to Live Down the Street From His Daughter and Ex Wife when she was together with Ron Rice ( Hawaiian Tropic King ) in Ormond Beach FL
There was a small clip posted on youtube but I'm not sure if it was removed... I can't pull it up right now, but try a search, different accounts get different search results I've noticed. Hope that helps.
I'd love to see a film like this but with real people from that era. The undefeated wrestler Gamma, the Irish boxer Ed Sullivan, jujitsu innovator Jiggoro Kano, Dempsey from the states etc
@@kaz5150619 was it judo? I believe judo goes back hundreds of years with the samurai and Kano came up with the application of continuing to battle on the ground. Atleast that is what it says in the introduction of Gracie Jujitsu by Renzo and Royker Gracie under the section "The genius of Kano." And it was one of his pupils that met Relio Gracie and instructed him. But I've been wrong before.
So, was that specific style used by Dr. Winston Ellis completely made up for the movie? Logically, the rhythm influence, similar to Afro-Brazilian Capoeira, I always assumed that it was an actual art form.
17:03 I'm glad finally someone announces that the guy is actually not a Turkish man. I mean any other fighters in the movie look more Turkish than him. Also it's not surprising again a Hollywood movie shows a Turkish fighter fights dirty and also humiliates himself. I really hate that, so that dude totally has no similarity with a Turk. However, sure it's a really good movie. I was 7-8 years old that time. And I loved the movie :)
Koji Kitao is also notable for one of the most famous shoot moments in wrestling when he was in a match with accomplished fan favorite and fellow sumo wrestler John Earthquake Tenta. In a match Kitao threatened to legitimately gouge the eyes of Tenta and refused to properly perform the scripted show. When the referee ended the match Kitao took the microphone and told the audience that pro wrestling was fake- thus becoming banned for life from a second athletic endeavor
I met the Scottish figher in this film. His name is Michael lambert and happens to be a fantastic taekwondo practitioner that trains with the tagb taekwondo . Would have liked to see more of him in the film
I started keeping up with several WSM athletes like Thor, Eddie, Brian, and Martins. Mostly because of Larry Wheels. It will be interesting to see Thor's and Eddie's boxing match. Thor also took the deadlift record from Eddie which just adds to the history of these guys always trying to out do each other. I'm not sure if their resentment for each other is real, but Eddie is a pretty good mack talker. Lol.
I'm looking fwd to that boxing match, I made a preview trailer for it that nobody watched lol, talk about a video flying under the radar! ruclips.net/video/zN7Z74L42LU/видео.html
Was there any reason given why Abdel Qissi was chosen to play a Mongolian as opposed to representing Morroco or a region closer to his actual ethnicity?
It always struck me as odd w this one that "Africa" was used as a country... and Okinawa was run by Japan at this point in time. Also, Scotland would've been counted as Britain.
It was a pretty good movie but VD got crushed on reviews he was the director his first time doing that I think this movie could have been more better still its very entertaining
I think that Han Soo Ong was portraying a Tang Soo Do fighter. I agreed that it looked more Karate (ish). Maybe he was showing old school TKD. What do you think?
I think he was probably showing old school TKD. I'm sure a lot of footage was left on the cutting room floor too. In an interview with the guy that played the German fighter, he said that TKD was one of the martial arts that were portrayed in the film.
Thanks for the research and effort that went into making this video, much appreciated. I loved watching that movie as a 15 year-old. But is there any way to remove the ads? way too many in this vid.
I'm shocked anything can be shot today. Just the idea that somebody thinks that they "might be offended" almost seems like enough to get something "cancelled".
hey to answer u about why the korea guy didnt do taekwondo well there was no such thing as taekwondo at the time it was not formed untill the 1940s he may have practiced an young form of tang soo do that is what taekwando was made from but he could also of been doing any typ of chinese kung foo at that time the chinese kung foo styles were the most comon in korea at the time just FYI
Im so glad I found this RUclips channel. I bet on the Greek guy. Canf type it. I love this film
This was one of my favorites as a kid, and still love it today. I really enjoyed the depth you went into explaining the fighter characters and their backgrounds.
Habby used to live over the back fence from me in Broome, western Australia,in the afternoon there'd be all these little black kids with the biggest smiles watching him training .He was really cool ,never passed locals without saying hello.He used to bounce at the local bars,no trouble when he was working, really nice guy.

Kitao, Stefanos and now Brick.
That hurts me right in the childhood because I love this movie so damn much.
May the light shine on their souls forever. 💙
He would have made a great flash gordon in a remake RIP!
ever considered making a video about no retreat no surrender? , Van Damme has some very impressive fight scenes at the end of the movie
Definitely a future video!
Hell ya!!!!!! No Retreat No Surrender!!!!!!!
My favorite Jean Claude van Damme movie. The reason being we saw a full panoply of his martial arts moves. Not too much special effects.
Yes I remember that who played Bruce Lee. Rember the bar seen no no bring it over here the drink he pulled over his head lol
This is one film I missed and only heard about it when van and dux went to court,I'll have to look this movie up ASAP.
The Quest is basically Bloodsport in a more Mortal Kombat-ish setting.
It was forgettable.
Great job!! Thanks for this video!!
Excellent! This looks even better when you watch it all at once. One look at these physiques and fights and you are ready for your workout. 💪🏻
I really enjoyed this clip! Love to know more about the extras. I noticed them in other films way back in the 80s and 90s. Love that there are good TKD fighters in there!
all these fighters deserve this recognition. koji kitao fought in the ufc too vs mark
Your vids are legit gems. So glad the algorithm brought me to your channel, bro.
Glad you like the vids!
Absolutely loves these types of videos. Keep up the great work👍🏼
What a great vídeo. Really liked
Remenber that my father rented this movie and said It was like a Steet Fighter game.
Great job.

Han Soo Ong not using Tae Kwon Do would be historically accurate as TKD did not become an established style until the 1940s 1950s.

I love this movie.
Me too
These films were classic van dam was my favorite action star of the 80s into the 90s. Thanks for the time and research revisiting these classics.
I am also on a work out routine and does having more protein in your diet cause better weight loss , and muscle tone?
Thanks
Increased protein does help, excess is less likely to be stored as fat (than carbs or fat) due to its thermogenic effect.
Michel Quisse also starred with Van Damme in Breakin ( a.k.a break dance).
As much as I enjoyed this movie, and it was very much projected to the ages of 6 to 14 year old market, it has too many similarities to Bloodsport without the scandal and Shaun Duetz guy, you know the Ninja touch of death guy. I did enjoy this clip.
Bloodsport, Kick-boxer and A.W.O.L ( Lionheart ) all mixed together.
Was Taekwondo as a style on par with the films 1920s timeline/ setting? Maybe that’s why the Korean fighter didn’t use it
Koji wrestled earthquake back in the day and they dropped the plan and started fighting each other. Earthquake was a sumo wrestler as well
I love this movie and its storytelling.
I watch it a lot on dvd.

Bloodsport 4? Didn’t know there was even a 2.
You didn't miss much there. Trust me...
Bloodsport 2 is great.
The Siamese fighter Fang always reminded me of an Asian Matthias Hues. I swear they could be brothers.
Can you do a video on Michael Dudikoff, Dolph Lundgren, and Scott Atkins?
I have a Dolph video coming very soon.
When I hear Eagle Claw Kung fu I think of that woman in Iron Monkey.
I appreciate a good Seinfeld reference. You just don't see them these days.

Hey man you got some great content..keep that shit up!!!
My favorite fighter was Peter wings character. The Chinese fighter.
Just think how good this would have been if they just let them fight
Did Azdine Nouri have some biceps tear in his past? His arm development seems to indicate previous trauma. Just curious
Ya, he did tear that biceps.
Decent flick with a lot of potential. Wish Van Damme had a little more experience before directing this.
I always thought Brazil was Lateef Crowder
Was there any reason given why Abdel Qissi was chosen to play a Mongolian as opposed to representing Morroco or a region closer to his actual ethnicity?
It always struck me as odd w this one that "Africa" was used as a country... and Okinawa was run by Japan at this point in time. Also, Scotland would've been counted as Britain.
What is the stage show with the fighters you keep cutting to?
It was during promotion for the film at Universal Studios I believe.
The reason the Korean fighter does nt use TKD is that TKD didnt exist until the 40s post WW2, Korea was a Japanese colony, who eradicated Korean MAs
I need this video in Spanish please
Anything on the Gentleman who played the last dragon?
Taimak? I'll cover The Last Dragon in a future video.

Holy crap, Wally Yamaguchi is in Kitao's UFC corner. #ChoppyChoppy #YamaguchiSan
what think van damme about bloodsport 2 and 3?
Van Damme should have been Johnny Cage in Mortal Combat!
Van Damme was a Hoover to Colombian Bam Bam in the 90s and not a lot of people had good things to say about him back then.
Why should we watch Bloodsport for is it that bad cuz I remember I liked one two and three I believe wrath was the main bad guy in part 3
Where is the Greek fighter?
I talked about him, Stefanos Miltsakakis
It was a pretty good movie but VD got crushed on reviews he was the director his first time doing that I think this movie could have been more better still its very entertaining
Do you have all his posters lol?
I wish.
Most fighters back wasn't even 200 pounds Joe Louis was huge but look at fighter back Tommy burns and other would be lightheavies now days

hey to answer u about why the korea guy didnt do taekwondo well there was no such thing as taekwondo at the time it was not formed untill the 1940s he may have practiced an young form of tang soo do that is what taekwando was made from but he could also of been doing any typ of chinese kung foo at that time the chinese kung foo styles were the most comon in korea at the time just FYI
