This is a quote from Ernest Lieb about Bruce Lee. "I have met Mr Lee and have had the provilege to work out with him several times. Although I have won 42 karate tournaments, I do not consider myself a match for him. His speed surpasses most of the black belts I know." --Ernest Lieb (Martial arts Legends magazine December 1995)
Excellent. Bruce Lee was my inspiration to begin Shotokan at 13 (1973), then Taekwondo, then Aikido, then Wing Chun, then Jeet Kun Do. I'm 62, now, and still train everyday even with a 2nd set of artificial hips, a rebuilt pelvis, 6 knee surgeries, 3 back surgeries, and a stint in my heart artery. I enjoy your stories and how you check everything out. I had the pleasure of being in "Invasion USA," in 1985 w/Chuck Norris. I'm the only guy Chuck has saved and killed in the same scene. I was upgraded from an extra to a stunt double in the East Atlanta scene on RUclips. I'm the blond 25 year old in the blue Oxford shirt trying to get into the store, but you only see a quick shot of me blown away lying on the pavement.
Too bad u never heard about KAJUKENBO. Create in Hawaii by 5 martial artists taking what's practical and effective to create the Perfected art of Dirty street fighting. When people ask if a certain martial arts would work in a street fight and if asked about Kajukenbo the answer is YES. It is the only martial arts that was practiced in a street fight and only if it worked and only then it was added to Kajukenbo. This is original EMPERADO's Method of Kajukenbo. I can't say if other Kajukenbo works too but I would assume it would. American, Kuwait and Israeli Special forces are trained in Kajukenbo too. Can find thesevideos also on RUclips.
Good for you bro . I've had both my hips upgraded and am looking forward to fight training again after a decade off . Karate was my 1st formal type but had the privilege of a big brother using me for judo practice and free style ground n pound. Also did lots of kickboxing Muay Thai & Sanda in raised platform ring. Then trained younger men in pit MMA . Love the feeling of flexibility strength & cardio fitness. Pity Steven Seagull couldn't leave a single slice of pizza . He was good in his early stuff .
I’m 71 , I followed all these guys in black belt magazine through the years. I remember Earnest Lieb and Skipper Mullins well. Great look back on some good memories. Subscribed.

It is very annoying how people make up all this stuff about Bruce, he was awesome for who he really was and he never made insane claims about himself but because of people like Beerdy, Bruce gets put in the same category as Steven Seagal or Jake Mace
I had the opportunity to meet Bruce Lee at the Henry Cho ‘s. All American tournament held at Madison Sq Garden NYC. I was part of Demo team and Bruce held a center stage position and entertained spectators with skill and humorous stories Bruce. Chuck Norris and I all born on 1940 were together at the tournament in NY. Chuck won Grand Championship . Then returned to defend and retain his Tittle when he competed against me in 1968. Half a century later I find interesting how all 3 of us shared the same passion and creativity to enhance martial arts With out of the box thinking and application of techniques. I continued my career for 53 years. Now 83 years old I still work out ,Just a whole lot Slower, Ji Do kwan Korean Karate is the Best Art in my Life !
Hi Prince, got hooked up on Bruce as we all did, way back in the 70's when Enter the Dragon first came out, it made such an impact on everyone I knew that had watched it, every body wanted to be a Bruce Lee or fight like him, or train like him, it was amazing times, took up Karate myself for several years, information about him was difficult to get hold of until the internet grew, always purchased the monthly martial arts magazines for any snippets on Bruce, one story that always comes to mind was an article about Jim Kelly, Jim mentioned that while he was on set of ETD he always carried a home movie camera and that he actually filmed an extra who challenged Bruce to a fight, I am sure Jim mentioned it did not last much more than a minute,he quick jabbed him and brushed his chin with a high kick..i cannot remember what magazine that came out of....NOW if you watch Beardy video he says Bruce knocks the teeth out of this guy and puts him in hospital.....can you imagine our Bruce doing that on set in front of many witnesses? I think much of Beardys information is BS, keep up the great channel here buddy
I think Jim said it happened? If a Guy challenges you to a fight I doubt you or Bruce would just brush his foot on the guys chin? While I think Bruce was a Dude just like me and you he must have been Par Excellent during the time of the Vietnam War and being married to a white woman to get into Hollywood. He can not possibly be normal or just above average with everyone hating him at the hieght of the Civil Rights movement and the War in Vietnam? My guess is he be beat the dog droppings out of the guy at least. I read that story too and it was not from this Beerdy Guy, but from Mitoshi Uyehara owner of Black Belt Magazine. My uncle used to do editorials for Mitoshi Uyehara back when Black Belt Magazine was located in Los Angles. Beerdy has some truth to his stories but I think he needs to verify them and also stop trying to get viewers as all of RUclips is based on this model in order for people to get paid. My Uncle who was also indoctrinated into the Black Belt Hall of Fame several times was Brendan Lai.
Bruce Lee stories are so crazy Bruce was a great martial artist It's a shame people make up stories that aren't real Bruce Lee's accomplishments stand on their own His books and teaching stand on their own
My name is “Dell Pride Tennis Pro”… my Sensei was Glen Keny who was the Sensei of Bill “ superfoot” Wallace. I am from Anderson, IN where I trained as a youth at our DoJo “Komokai Academy of Karate 🥋 “. I grew up with Bill hanging out and training. Because of my foundations as a martial artist ( who left Karate and embraced the teachings of Bruce Lee ) I was able to become a tennis 🎾 pro❗️THERE IS NO GREATER TRAINING IN THE WORLD THAN MARTIAL ARTS‼️ Thank you Sensei Keny, Thank you Superfoot, and Thank you Bruce Lee🙏❗️ I’m still getting paid as an athlete at age 53 and it’s AWESOME 🤩
When was this? My first years were in Indiana and competing on the Indiana tournament circuit when Mr Keeny, "The Fox," was running it. My instructor was Mr Michael Branam and the senior student was Mr H Eugene Talbott. Yep, I spent a good deal of time on my knees sucking wind or seeing stars. I have a certificate signed by Mr Keeny for 3rd in the state, 3rd kyu division, after only competing in half the tournaments that year. Ended up a 3rd kyu under Mr Branam before leaving Indiana. Ended up a 2nd Dan under another instructor. During those years I had the honor of sparring with folks like AL Glover, Sugarfoot, Steve Anderson and others, who would visit our Saturday, sparring sessions, and Mr Herb Johnson who had invited our school to his for their sparring classes whenever we liked. Hope you see this and God bless.
Oh, how did I not mention "Boom Boom" and Cornelius, both of whom I competed against as we rose through the ranks together. How often were at least two of us in the final four?
Thanks for this video! Very informative, and it’s good to have someone out there fact checking this nonsense. I was a student at Lieb’s school in Muskegon when I was young, where Lieb lived. He didn’t teach on a regular basis back then due to injuries, but he still came into class often and was still incredibly impressive and generous with his knowledge. He also had a wonderful sense of humor, just a great man all around. Thanks for making more people aware of his legacy!
WOW ! You have some great pedigree in the Martial Arts ! Your mother studying under the great Bill "Superfoot" Wallace . Back in the day, some of us called him "Sugarfoot" after the t.v. series although he was always known as Superfoot. If you put Bigfoot up against Superfoot, back in the day, Bigfoot would have lost. Even at his advanced age, he is a force to be dealt with. Long live Bill "Superfoot" Wallace, a living legend ! He was an MA hero of mine in the 60's and 70's. I have watched him in early kickboxing tournaments, live, and his lower body movements were incomparable. If you survived his powerful and quick legs you would have to survive his upper torso throwing hammers your way. I will bet your mother has some wonderful stories to tell about the man. He was a great teacher as well. I am nearly 70 yrs. old and wished that I was in as good shape as him and being almost is not close enough. I am an old Marine vet with still an unction to function ! A FRIEND ALWAYS !
Jake but MMA is fake martial artists who are Practitioners of self-defense called karate. Bruce could not beat a karate man in a fist fight. Bruce won one fight in is life. And that is bc the guy fell over his own feet. But everything that can be said about Bruce Lee skill level is solely based upon demonstrations that he criticized in his movie characters to make everything but him look bad. But everyone that spoke high of Lee's skill is making money on his name mostly his daughter and wife. Let me tell you about a section in my book. When Bruce got to "Enter the Dragon" he thought it was going to be protected from the Chinese Mafia absorbing him which made him a worldwide name. There was no way he was going to live after that movie. Anyway, by that time Bruce had completely destroyed his back. He was using that electrostatic machine daily to stay mobile. He could not realistically have any strenuous active more than 5 minutes without risking being paralyzed for the rest of his life. Messing with karate guys who build their bodies with weights bc the art form they practice lack what it takes to be martial arts which is chi. But l was going to tell you how he tricked the guy on the set who challenged bruce and was scared to fight him. They would not have been able to finish that movie if they fought bc Bruce would have been beaten down and paralyzed. The reason the guy challenged Bruce is bc they all heard that was Bruce"s last movie where he was going die by kuntao death touch. So they challenged him bc they knew that the death strike was untraceable. And they would blame it on the last person that fought him . That person, although that person would not have delivered the blow bc he didn"t know, he would a he been able to join their ranks as a Chinese Mafia contact. Bruce Lee was a paper tiger aka a fake martial artists. What martial art did he know?
@@ddmound 1>Bruce Lee died in that airhead actress' apartment from erotic asphixation. Same thing that happened to David Carridine. 2>in the movie where the extra challenged Bruce Lee, well the extra was paid to take a dive. 3>kuntao death touch? is nonsense because how would you practice it, how would you teach it? Are you going to go around killing people?
I was one of June Reeves students and I was at the 1968 demonstration in Washington DC and I never saw Bruce strike anybody in the throat. I am also fortunate enough to have one of those magazines from the tournament and Bruce signed it to me it says to Steve good luck in karate Bruce Lee. I still have it!
Being "too fast" is more than one "Klick" away from a "sucker punch". All these gentlemen had their parts to play, and in hindsight; They did so with stellar performance. Respect to all these guys.
Great video my man. Beerdy lost all credibility when he posted a fight demo of Joe Lewis and claimed it was Bruce Lee. Can't believe people still follow his content...
I was given nun chucks as a child ( 10yrs old), with a few moves to practice - Not until recently did i learn bruce Lee's connection with 'em - Over the years i use 'em for personal meditation & therapy - have seemed to help my reflexes greatly - I would like to learn more about 'em,- more moves with 'em - can you shed more light on this?
Note: the "karate" guy appears to be wearing a Tang Soo Do dobok rather than a karate dogi. Subtle difference in the black lining, and yes TSD is often called "Korean Karate" and is descended from Shotokan, but I gotta split that hair. Also- it is kind of a loss from a historical perspective that Bruce never sparred (kyokushin karate founder) Mas Oyama. That would have been a dream match on the order of Capcom vs SNK.
Think Bruce Lee was in his peak at that time. Think Mas have known Bruce Lee and Bruce him very well. But first of all, Bruce was ways younger, and Mas was over the hill, in this particular time 1965-1973. Bruce was ways faster, and for his weight and height, pound for pound one of the strongest men in the planet, and one of the fastest ever, at that time. This art of Match between the two where only without rules/ a street fight or fight to death ! Think Bruce Lee have won, before the fight have even started ! Bruce had/have proclaimed in a interview, that he never will say to are the Nr 1 , but he never will accepted to are Nr. 2 !!! ( Worldwide ) Think even Joe Lewis have/had won Against Mas in this time. Mas has trained Wing Chun in his youth, and many other styles, before he later created his Full Contact 🥋 ( Kyokushinkai ) Karate. He took many good things from Thai Boxing and Tang So Do to create Kyokushinkai and helped his Landsman to create Taekwondo 🥋. ( Thanks for that.) As a Korean that lived in Japan 🇯🇵 after the WW2 . We will never know for sure, where would win, but my house 🏠 and my cat 🐈⬛ on Bruce Lee every day in the week & at Saturday twice. Bruce was and is in the martial arts World Legend Nr.1 !
@@nostradamus522there is not evidence they ever met. My roots are Kyokushin Karate. "pound for pound one of the strongest men in the planet, and one of the fastest ever"...Please post evidence for these claims...Bruce was strong but there is no evidence he was one of the strongest men and he never competed in strength contests. He was also fast but there are many people who were and are actually recorded as faster. Dont be a Beerdy.
Dude, I hope you're sending thank you cards to beerdy for all the wonderful content ideas he gives you for your Channel. What would you do without him?
That's hilarious 😂 Not counting the list of video topics from last year that I still haven't touched, I'm actually discussing a new list I came up with yesterday that will keep me busy for the next 6 months... That's not counting fact-checking Beerdy's stories I have no shortage of video topics 🙂
@@GoldenbellTraining ...

@@GoldenbellTraining I totally agree. All aspects of them should be talked about he will always be a legend, and nothing will take that away, but speaking on either his drug use or his affairs, show the human side of him, and not just the legend. I appreciate the information because it’s something I never knew of him. I respect you for even saying it.
I had the pleasure of being part of Demo Team in 1967 at master Cho All American competition at NYC Madison Sq Garden. Bruce was very humorous and very stage commanding. That experience was Shared by 3 men born in 1940. Young men with new ideas and passion that changed methods of training and contributed to enhance Martial Arts. Bruce gave a great Performance . Chuck Norris won GrandChampionship ..I got a chance to share the ring in a demo by my Dojang. And a year later 1968 competed with Norris for Grand Championship. These early years of Martial Arts were fantastic! Todays Heroes learned from the artists of the past. I am 83 years old . I continue to practice. But no longer Fly like an Eagle, But I still have ability to claw and bite !
I remember the name Ernest Lieb although I was a young buck Karate fanof 13 or 14 at the time. You're right he was no slouch. Good detective work as usual sir!
I heard about Skipper Mullens when reading Chuck Norris’s autobiography, “The Secret of Inner Strength”. Skipper Mullens, Bill Wallace, Joe Lewis, Mike Stone, and Chuck Norris were all high level competitors during that era.
What I like about your channel is that you don't just make him out to be bigger than what he already is he being Bruce Lee btw. You are doing a great job thank you for separating myth from reality.
My father is and has been a fan of Bruce Lee!!! And he tried getting me and my brothers and sisters to learn and get to know,’ everything about Bruce and his family and HIS LIFE AND AMAZING TALENTS!!! I’m a follower and a massive fan and,’ there can never be another Bruce LEE,’ him his soul and his legacy will be remembered forever ♾️,’ AND I WILL NEVER FORGET BRUCE,’ and it’s absolutely amazing how many and you follow in BRUCES FOOTSTEPS!!! Love and gratitude and good wishes to you all,’ THE LEGEND BRUCE LEE,’ BRANDON,’ SHANNON,’ LINDA. GOD BLESS YOU ALL 🙏❤️🤩
Beerdy is one of the reasons there's so much disdain and skepticism about Bruce! It's People like him who make Bruce out to be some type of super human deity demi god!
@@nameless.greyceo “The word “star”, man, really turned me off and I’ll tell you why. Because star, man, is an illusion. I mean, you would be very pleased if someone came up to you and said, “Hey man you are a super actor!””
Hi my Brother and I started with Tae Kwon Do and then went into MMA. Right now we training under the Great Sensei Benny The Jet Urquidez for Kickboxing. The inspiration for me and my Brother to do Martial Arts , is our Dad and he showed us Enter The Dragon 🐉, Bloodsport and The Karate Kid. Love the work you do man 😃👍👍🙏👊🥋🥊
Thanks again for all the truth and information about my martial arts idol Bruce Lee. I may have been one of the people who got dragged in by Beerdy. Besides reading Black Belt and a few other karate magazines I didn’t know much about that style I followed one of my older brothers when he was in taekwondo then aikido then got facilitated with gung fu there wasn’t a lot of places on the east coast particularly south east coast to study. Whatever my got he’d show me. I later found a school in West Germany that I did for a short while the late 70s with a friend and again in the early 80s. But “WOW” man your mother’s teacher was Bill Superfoot Wallace he was actually the first white guy I wanted to learn about. He was the greatest if not one of the greatest I never seen anyone use his feet like that before until Bruce Lee’s films started to pick up in the states. Superfoot was an artist I wanted to see more of him in the movies martial arts bouts wasn’t televised much that was boxing and wrestling thing. But Kool 😎 keep the informative clips coming of course I’m a subscriber. Oh I forgot to mention why I liked aikido and why it was fun. When I was at a class with my brother and the instructor was explaining aikido and demonstrated how to use a persons aggression and force against them I was floored. I was like I can avoid getting hit and make the other person look like an idiot oh I’m all for that. lol
Love this video, it's troubling how this "Beardy" fellow is literally damaging people's family legacies by actually making up nonsense about old pictures taken out of context, not only fabricating stories but just making up names and credentials. He Is a menace
As a Wing Chun student myself back in the day I am glad you are pointing out the truth, people who did not know me well thought I was full of crap when I tell them I trained under the lineage of Ip Man in the 90's under the same Wing Chun Academy which was founded by Ip Man I am privileged to have trained in this lineage, and it felt good when I demonstrated what I learnt on these critics, and I know Ip Man was not a man to mess with when he was around, Wing Chun in my experience is very effective and dangerous to the receiver, and the more one practices Wing Chun no matter if one is big or small the faster a person can be in a fight and the more dangerous a flurry of strikes will be, I love Wing Chun and respect to Grand Master Ip Man who even after he has passed away has helped so many people become exposed to such a great art...
Hello, brother- The reason we say Ving Tsun, not Wing Chun, is because Ip Man did not want the art to be shortened to WC. Take care. (Qualified instructor and private student of GM Victor Kan)
@@vtpoet5300 You do know IpMan is not his real name? You correcting others on how to spell/pronaunce WingChung but use his stage name. Also its Grandmaster not Grandfather unless you are a relative .
I really apreciate a channel that is commited to fact check and puts out the truth. This is so rare this days and the principle of true journalism. An essential benefict for society. I'm not even into martial arts I just like history, amazing achievements, personal stories of people who give it all to a form of art.
My father in law was a marine in WW2, he became a DC police officer. He was a judo champion, and trained judo at the police academy. One of his students at the academy was Eddie Money.
Bill Wallace came to my locker room after one of my fights!!!! Shook my hand and told me that I was a great competitor. I had beaten the undefeated Canadian welterweight in FULL CONTACT KICK BOXING. That was way back in the 80s.
What most people recoganise to understand is that Bruce was FIRST and FOREMOST an ACTOR. He was born into an Acting family, both parents were actors. Now add some very good martial art skills, good looks and hence the legend of Bruce Lee. He was 125 pound 5.4" guy that lived and breathed a plan to hit the Asian martial arts movies and also ended up becoming an Icon in Western world as a Chines Martial artist. He never fought a single tournament that proved his claims.
he was a actor with some good books about martial arts and creating JKD while being a actor and dying with 32. maybe you did miss something along the line..how old are you? did you try JKD? some punches and kicks are unique to JKD and real good, and this with like 2000 years martial arts history. most martial arts experts grounding new styles or teach self defense..if they have some ambition outsida of "sparring" in a ring. this is that a tournament is in the end. bruce lee did make movies and fights without rules. sure there is no offical report on this, this is can become easy a crime.
Good video, I was there in the 60's and 70's, remembering The Green Hornet and Bruce as Kato, and the movie Five fingers of Death, which we believed started, for us, these kung fu movies 💪🏽😎
I was a student of Ernest Lieb in Muskegon Michigan in the late 1960s Very humble skilled instructor and a beautiful demenar saw a demonstration with Tadashi Yamachita and went to his dojo in Illinois he went into being in several movies
ANOTHER GREAT VID PRINCE 🤴 , BEERDY COMES UP WITH THESE VIDEOS , BECAUSE HE HAS NO TRUE SELF ESTEEM ABOUT HIMSELF , INSTEAD OF DOING IT HONESTLY, AND LOOKING FOR PROPER RESEARCH, HE MAKES HIMSELF LOOK LIKE A FOOL . TO CONSTANTLY LIE , TO HIS AUDIENCE, MEANS TO CONSTANTLY LIE TO HIMSELF IN THE GAME OF LIFE.
Those videos with Ashe are 7 years old, I've been in Thailand since 2019. I'm hoping to get a retreat going out here, but I have to wait until my daughter is a little older - I saw you mention you also study ILC 👍
This is what he put in the pinned comment on that video. "The source for this story is the same guy who gave me the picture. He was there and saw this happen." Great source, Beerdy. 🤣 Your videos are great by the way. I know people say not to waste time on him, but it's the only way to get the truth out as he blocks people who challenge him with facts.
How cool is it that Bill Wallace was your mom's teacher? That blows my mind. I always respected him so much because I also tore my ACL at a young age and never got it fixed.
Beerdy recently said that Bruce was sucker punched on Enter The Dragon and shows the picture. The picture was from a scene in the movie where the guy hits Bruce. So his lie is actually recorded as fact. This is not helping Bruce but damaging his own credibility. Bruce doesn’t need lies to make him look good. Also Bruce would never hit a guy with his arms down. And the picture shows after Bruce punched and the guy looks fine. So it’s just to get ratings.
I have worked with people like Beerdy before. They have to tell lies to make themselves feel better about themselves even when he knew everyone's he was lying.
What about master Vic Moore??? People who were really there say he blocked Bruce Lee's 1st 2 punches. Master Moore says what we see on film is the last hit where Lee attacked a different area than where he said he was going to...
Im 65 and have been looking for classes but where i live the classes are fairly expensive at least for me who is on social security . Do you have any suggestions of where i can find a good training program in wichita kansas i could afford i really like aikido
I see a lot of Jhoon Rhee in those pics... another guy that changed "Americanized" TKD, and ultimately helped create the basis for what became American Kickboxing and what we see in Sport Karate today.
Ernest Lieb didn't die during a Karate training in Germany, he died during a measurement run of the Transrapid at the Transrapid test facility in Emsland (Germany) on September 22, 2006, when it hit a workshop vehicle at a speed of around 170 km/h. With Ernest H. Lieb, 22 other people died, including another American and three other german karateka.
"Tragically, Ernie died in Lathen, Germany on Friday, September 22, 2006, in a maglev (magnetic levitation) train accident along with SFC Charles (Chuck) C. Krum, 5th Dan A.K.S., Mattheas (Matze) Augustijn, 1st Dan Shotokan, and Dagmar (Daggi) Wichterich who were both German A.K.S. students. Mr. Lieb and Sgt. Krum had traveled to Germany to conduct an A.K.S. seminar. They will all be sadly missed."
Master Lee of Hwa Wrang Do would've been a challenge. 1973 my big bro took lessons in Oxnard, Ca from him. He demonstrated stuff from "That's Incredible" show later. Master Lee was incredible so Bruce must've been even better. Joo Bang Lee of Tae Kwon Do Korea won the national karate contract instead of Master Lee. And Joo Bang Lee says every where that Bruce would knock him out no chance real time. They sparred many times and was quite above his level. With speed too
I studied karate as child and into my teens. I never was a snob or prejudice of other disciplines. Probably because I also engaged in wrestling and did rather well. There’s so many styles and I wish I could learn them all but we only have 1 lifetime
Keep on researching Prince. Can't say I ever heard of Beerdy. I lived across from Oakland Tech in the 1970's where James Lee went to school. Their studio was a few blocks away, but had closed in the mid 1960's. I took judo with Wally Jay in Alameda. I liked the workout. Punching somebody and drawing blood just wasn't my thing, but as a slippery playground wrestler, I always went for the throat. End of story. Bruce Lee got me running on the track at Oakland Tech, after reading his reflections on that famous challenge fight at his Oakland studio when he tired out. Glad you all still find inspiration in this amazing martial artist, but don't forget to cool it. If you live in over-drive, take meditation seriously. I know Bruce's philosophic side, it drew me to him. He needed more chill time to experience the finer points of having a body-mind like water. He also liked to dress up, act rich, have fancy cars and servants. The shadow side of status is that it draws you out instead of inwards. Action is exploited instead of internalized like a true Shaolin monk. If he lived longer, beyond the point of wanting to make it, where he could also question and unravel the self, we'd see a deeper side of Bruce Lee with an awakened mind. Now that's a story worth fantasizing.
I like to add in addition to your great video: Anyone, no matter who, that states "I HATE THIS OR I HATE THAT!" are actually saying" "I FEAR THIS & I FEAR THAT!" Hate & Fear are born of ignorance... To remove both: UNDERSTAND ALL! To Understand ALL is to live in harmony with ALL!🙏
GREAT content I LOVE hearing everything real about Bruce. That is some STRANGE shirt Bruce is wearing in the fight in the Beerdy image. The very high turtleneck, it appears to be hiding a sling that you can see across his front and up to the corner of his right neck, is that a gun holster, under that shirt? And there appears to be something a matrix in front over his belly button. Is that a metal cage that will mess up the opponent’s hands if he gets punched?
I remember Skipper Mullins. He was a tall lanky black belt rivaled Bill Wallace as a kicking specialist. The guy was practically all legs and very good at it. Very interesting that he took some lessons from Bruce also that’s a steroid like to hear more about
The more I learn about Skipper, the more impressed I am by his accomplishments. He faced Chuck Norris in the finals for Grand Champion at Ed Parker's Long Beach Internationals in '68 and was winning at one point. He even gave Chuck a black eye with a surprise backfist. I wonder if that was something he practiced with Bruce because, up to that point, he was thought to not have any hands.
@@GoldenbellTraining I really enjoyed your video. As a young 16 year old in Dallas, Texas, I started training at Allen Steen's Karate school. Skipper Mullins lived in my neighborhood, and had been a recent student of Mr. Steen. Mr Steen was the first to receive a black belt under Jhoon Rhee, considered the Father of American Tae Kwon Do. In 1966 Mr Steen defeated both Chuck Norris and Joe Louis in the Long Beach International Karate Championship. I trained at this small karate school under Mr. Steen and tested for Brown Belt with both him and Jhoon Rhee grading the testing. Skipper Mullin's younger brother, Mike, trained with me at that time. Skipper went into the military, as many of us did at that time, and eventually came back. The stories about his lightning fast feet were true. Mr Steen and Chuck Norris remained good friends, and Mr Steen retired from competition in 1967. I moved away and continued to study Tae Kwon Do through the years, but later settled into a style called Shaolin Chuan Fa, which combined Shaolin Kung Fu styles with Kenpo. I became a black belt in that style and, though older now, continue to learn and now enjoy channels such as yours. Thanks for all the work you put into your research so the rest of us can learn and enjoy it.
I began my studies of karate in 1967. One thing I have learned is that the "history of martial arts" that is passed out to naive students in karate schools (I have studied at several) is often total nonsense. If you want to know the REAL history of martial arts you have to go online and find books from legitimate sources. It's far more complex than most martial artists, even experienced instructors, ever realize. And the fake stories surrounding Bruce Lee are the worst. I loved this video!!!
Bruce was fast, but this rumor about cameras having to slow down in order to capture his speed is campfire folklore. The fact is, slowing down the camera would have the opposite effect. If a cameraman wants to slow a subject down, they speed up the camera. Also, Bruce couldn't kick three times in the blink of an eye. In fact, none of the best kickers in martial arts could accomplish that.
Bruce went missing for three months in 1967 we now know he lead a 6 man crew of Marines in to North Vietnam to capture Ho Chi man Bruce took out 500 NVA but Ho Chi man was able to escape.
This is a quote from Ernest Lieb about Bruce Lee.
"I have met Mr Lee and have had the provilege to work out with him several times. Although I have won 42 karate tournaments, I do not consider myself a match for him. His speed surpasses most of the black belts I know." --Ernest Lieb
(Martial arts Legends magazine December 1995)
This truth clarifies a lot.
Excellent. Bruce Lee was my inspiration to begin Shotokan at 13 (1973), then Taekwondo, then Aikido, then Wing Chun, then Jeet Kun Do. I'm 62, now, and still train everyday even with a 2nd set of artificial hips, a rebuilt pelvis, 6 knee surgeries, 3 back surgeries, and a stint in my heart artery. I enjoy your stories and how you check everything out. I had the pleasure of being in "Invasion USA," in 1985 w/Chuck Norris. I'm the only guy Chuck has saved and killed in the same scene. I was upgraded from an extra to a stunt double in the East Atlanta scene on RUclips. I'm the blond 25 year old in the blue Oxford shirt trying to get into the store, but you only see a quick shot of me blown away lying on the pavement.

When people ask if a certain martial arts would work in a street fight and if asked about Kajukenbo the answer is YES. It is the only martial arts that was practiced in a street fight and only if it worked and only then it was added to Kajukenbo. This is original EMPERADO's Method of Kajukenbo.
I can't say if other Kajukenbo works too but I would assume it would. American, Kuwait and Israeli Special forces are trained in Kajukenbo too. Can find thesevideos also on RUclips.
Be careful when you are training. I have to study only wing Chun due to not being able to perform any taekwondo style kicks.
Good for you bro . I've had both my hips upgraded and am looking forward to fight training again after a decade off . Karate was my 1st formal type but had the privilege of a big brother using me for judo practice and free style ground n pound. Also did lots of kickboxing Muay Thai & Sanda in raised platform ring. Then trained younger men in pit MMA . Love the feeling of flexibility strength & cardio fitness. Pity Steven Seagull couldn't leave a single slice of pizza . He was good in his early stuff .
I’m 71 , I followed all these guys in black belt magazine through the years. I remember Earnest Lieb and Skipper Mullins well. Great look back on some good memories. Subscribed.
Thanks for watching 👍

Thanks, Coach 👊🏾
It is very annoying how people make up all this stuff about Bruce, he was awesome for who he really was and he never made insane claims about himself but because of people like Beerdy, Bruce gets put in the same category as Steven Seagal or Jake Mace
I had the opportunity to meet Bruce Lee at the Henry Cho ‘s. All American tournament held at Madison Sq Garden NYC. I was part of Demo team and Bruce held a center stage position and entertained spectators with skill and humorous stories Bruce. Chuck Norris and I all born on 1940 were together at the tournament in NY. Chuck won Grand Championship . Then returned to defend and retain his Tittle when he competed against me in 1968. Half a century later I find interesting how all 3 of us shared the same passion and creativity to enhance martial arts With out of the box thinking and application of techniques. I continued my career for 53 years. Now 83 years old I still work out ,Just a whole lot Slower, Ji Do kwan Korean Karate is the Best Art in my Life !
Very cool! 😎
stay Healthy! From Malaysia!
Hi Prince, got hooked up on Bruce as we all did, way back in the 70's when Enter the Dragon first came out, it made such an impact on everyone I knew that had watched it, every body wanted to be a Bruce Lee or fight like him, or train like him, it was amazing times, took up Karate myself for several years, information about him was difficult to get hold of until the internet grew, always purchased the monthly martial arts magazines for any snippets on Bruce, one story that always comes to mind was an article about Jim Kelly, Jim mentioned that while he was on set of ETD he always carried a home movie camera and that he actually filmed an extra who challenged Bruce to a fight, I am sure Jim mentioned it did not last much more than a minute,he quick jabbed him and brushed his chin with a high kick..i cannot remember what magazine that came out of....NOW if you watch Beardy video he says Bruce knocks the teeth out of this guy and puts him in hospital.....can you imagine our Bruce doing that on set in front of many witnesses? I think much of Beardys information is BS, keep up the great channel here buddy
Bruce would not of done that despite his ego!
This is interesting. Be like water- Bruce Lee. Always my hero.
I think Jim said it happened? If a Guy challenges you to a fight I doubt you or Bruce would just brush his foot on the guys chin? While I think Bruce was a Dude just like me and you he must have been Par Excellent during the time of the Vietnam War and being married to a white woman to get into Hollywood. He can not possibly be normal or just above average with everyone hating him at the hieght of the Civil Rights movement and the War in Vietnam? My guess is he be beat the dog droppings out of the guy at least. I read that story too and it was not from this Beerdy Guy, but from Mitoshi Uyehara owner of Black Belt Magazine. My uncle used to do editorials for Mitoshi Uyehara back when Black Belt Magazine was located in Los Angles. Beerdy has some truth to his stories but I think he needs to verify them and also stop trying to get viewers as all of RUclips is based on this model in order for people to get paid. My Uncle who was also indoctrinated into the Black Belt Hall of Fame several times was Brendan Lai.
As a Karate guy I wanted to say this....Kung Fu and Wing Chun are great. I have dabbled in the Chinese Arts.
Bruce Lee stories are so crazy Bruce was a great martial artist It's a shame people make up stories that aren't real Bruce Lee's accomplishments stand on their own His books and teaching stand on their own
My name is “Dell Pride Tennis Pro”… my Sensei was Glen Keny who was the Sensei of Bill “ superfoot” Wallace. I am from Anderson, IN where I trained as a youth at our DoJo “Komokai Academy of Karate 🥋 “. I grew up with Bill hanging out and training. Because of my foundations as a martial artist ( who left Karate and embraced the teachings of Bruce Lee ) I was able to become a tennis 🎾 pro❗️THERE IS NO GREATER TRAINING IN THE WORLD THAN MARTIAL ARTS‼️ Thank you Sensei Keny, Thank you Superfoot, and Thank you Bruce Lee🙏❗️ I’m still getting paid as an athlete at age 53 and it’s AWESOME 🤩
When was this? My first years were in Indiana and competing on the Indiana tournament circuit when Mr Keeny, "The Fox," was running it.
My instructor was Mr Michael Branam and the senior student was Mr H Eugene Talbott. Yep, I spent a good deal of time on my knees sucking wind or seeing stars.
I have a certificate signed by Mr Keeny for 3rd in the state, 3rd kyu division, after only competing in half the tournaments that year.
Ended up a 3rd kyu under Mr Branam before leaving Indiana. Ended up a 2nd Dan under another instructor. During those years I had the honor of sparring with folks like AL Glover, Sugarfoot, Steve Anderson and others, who would visit our Saturday, sparring sessions, and Mr Herb Johnson who had invited our school to his for their sparring classes whenever we liked.
Hope you see this and God bless.
Oh, how did I not mention "Boom Boom" and Cornelius, both of whom I competed against as we rose through the ranks together. How often were at least two of us in the final four?
Thanks for this video! Very informative, and it’s good to have someone out there fact checking this nonsense. I was a student at Lieb’s school in Muskegon when I was young, where Lieb lived. He didn’t teach on a regular basis back then due to injuries, but he still came into class often and was still incredibly impressive and generous with his knowledge. He also had a wonderful sense of humor, just a great man all around. Thanks for making more people aware of his legacy!
WOW ! You have some great pedigree in the Martial Arts ! Your mother studying under the great Bill "Superfoot" Wallace . Back in the day, some of us called him "Sugarfoot" after the t.v. series although he was always known as Superfoot. If you put Bigfoot up against Superfoot, back in the day, Bigfoot would have lost. Even at his advanced age, he is a force to be dealt with. Long live Bill "Superfoot" Wallace, a living legend ! He was an MA hero of mine in the 60's and 70's. I have watched him in early kickboxing tournaments, live, and his lower body movements were incomparable. If you survived his powerful and quick legs you would have to survive his upper torso throwing hammers your way. I will bet your mother has some wonderful stories to tell about the man. He was a great teacher as well. I am nearly 70 yrs. old and wished that I was in as good shape as him and being almost is not close enough. I am an old Marine vet with still an unction to function ! A FRIEND ALWAYS !
Martial arts masters should never be mad at Bruce Lee, but thankful. Sometimes the truth is hard to accept.
Thank you
Bruce Lee was far ahead of his time, a pioneer. "Bruce Lee is the Father of MMA" - Dana White
No he's not. Lol
Dont be a Beerdy.....while Dana did say that to promote the UFC video game its a complete falsehood.
Jake but MMA is fake martial artists who are Practitioners of self-defense called karate. Bruce could not beat a karate man in a fist fight. Bruce won one fight in is life. And that is bc the guy fell over his own feet.
But everything that can be said about Bruce Lee skill level is solely based upon demonstrations that he criticized in his movie characters to make everything but him look bad. But everyone that spoke high of Lee's skill is making money on his name mostly his daughter and wife.
Let me tell you about a section in my book. When Bruce got to "Enter the Dragon" he thought it was going to be protected from the Chinese Mafia absorbing him which made him a worldwide name. There was no way he was going to live after that movie.
Anyway, by that time Bruce had completely destroyed his back. He was using that electrostatic machine daily to stay mobile. He could not realistically have any strenuous active more than 5 minutes without risking being paralyzed for the rest of his life. Messing with karate guys who build their bodies with weights bc the art form they practice lack what it takes to be martial arts which is chi.
But l was going to tell you how he tricked the guy on the set who challenged bruce and was scared to fight him. They would not have been able to finish that movie if they fought bc Bruce would have been beaten down and paralyzed.
The reason the guy challenged Bruce is bc they all heard that was Bruce"s last movie where he was going die by kuntao death touch. So they challenged him bc they knew that the death strike was untraceable.
And they would blame it on the last person that fought him . That person, although that person would not have delivered the blow bc he didn"t know, he would a he been able to join their ranks as a Chinese Mafia contact. Bruce Lee was a paper tiger aka a fake martial artists. What martial art did he know?
@meechie B The martial artists expert has entered the chat 🤦♂️. I'm surprised you can comment like that with a straight face
@@ddmound 1>Bruce Lee died in that airhead actress' apartment from erotic asphixation. Same thing that happened to David Carridine. 2>in the movie where the extra challenged Bruce Lee, well the extra was paid to take a dive. 3>kuntao death touch? is nonsense because how would you practice it, how would you teach it? Are you going to go around killing people?
I was one of June Reeves students and I was at the 1968 demonstration in Washington DC and I never saw Bruce strike anybody in the throat. I am also fortunate enough to have one of those magazines from the tournament and Bruce signed it to me it says to Steve good luck in karate Bruce Lee. I still have it!
It's suppose to be Jhoon Rhee.
I love the realism, honesty, and balance you bring to these videos. It is what it is, as far as we know.
@@lukewarm7744 you could always just state your point
He takes these vids from beerdy. Go check him out. His narration and calm voice tells all. He is by far the best with Bruce lee info.
Lesson, never underestimate your opponent, expect the unexpected.
Thanks for sharing 👍

Great video my man. Beerdy lost all credibility when he posted a fight demo of Joe Lewis and claimed it was Bruce Lee. Can't believe people still follow his content...
He also claimed it was Joe Lewis in a demo with Bruce Lee.
That dude looked like Joe Lewis, though. I think it WAS Joe Lewis. The hair style, face and physique convince me it was Joe Lewis.
@@truthhitman7473 looked nothing like Joe except being a white guy.

Bruce Lee will forever be the best
I was given nun chucks as a child ( 10yrs old), with a few moves to practice -
Not until recently did i learn bruce Lee's connection with 'em -
Over the years i use 'em for personal meditation & therapy - have seemed to help my reflexes greatly -
I would like to learn more about 'em,- more moves with 'em - can you shed more light on this?
Note: the "karate" guy appears to be wearing a Tang Soo Do dobok rather than a karate dogi. Subtle difference in the black lining, and yes TSD is often called "Korean Karate" and is descended from Shotokan, but I gotta split that hair.
Also- it is kind of a loss from a historical perspective that Bruce never sparred (kyokushin karate founder) Mas Oyama. That would have been a dream match on the order of Capcom vs SNK.
Tae Kwon DO is also a descendent from Shotokan, Gojo Ryu.
Think Bruce Lee was in his peak at that time.
Think Mas have known Bruce Lee and Bruce him very well.
But first of all, Bruce was ways younger, and Mas was over the hill, in this particular time 1965-1973.
Bruce was ways faster, and for his weight and height, pound for pound one of the strongest men in the planet, and one of the fastest ever, at that time.
This art of Match between the two where only without rules/ a
street fight or fight to death !
Think Bruce Lee have won, before the fight have even started !
Bruce had/have proclaimed in a interview, that he never will say to are the Nr 1 , but he never will accepted to are Nr. 2 !!! ( Worldwide )
Think even Joe Lewis have/had won Against Mas in this time.
Mas has trained Wing Chun in his youth, and many other styles, before he later created his Full Contact 🥋 ( Kyokushinkai ) Karate.
He took many good things from Thai Boxing and Tang So Do to create Kyokushinkai and helped his Landsman to create Taekwondo 🥋.
( Thanks for that.)
As a Korean that lived in Japan 🇯🇵 after the WW2 .
We will never know for sure, where would win, but my house 🏠 and my cat 🐈⬛ on Bruce Lee every day in the week & at Saturday twice.
Bruce was and is in the martial arts World Legend Nr.1 !
Tang soo do is actually the original taekwondo that was removed and splits into 9 styles of tang soo do and taekwondo
@@nostradamus522there is not evidence they ever met. My roots are Kyokushin Karate.
"pound for pound one of the strongest men in the planet, and one of the fastest ever"...Please post evidence for these claims...Bruce was strong but there is no evidence he was one of the strongest men and he never competed in strength contests. He was also fast but there are many people who were and are actually recorded as faster. Dont be a Beerdy.
@@craigbosko2229it has roots in Soo bak and another Korean old school art as well
The fight was so fast the newspaper men couldn’t even write ✍️ about it 😅😂
You and Beerdy like Batman and Joker 😂

Dude, I hope you're sending thank you cards to beerdy for all the wonderful content ideas he gives you for your Channel. What would you do without him?
That's hilarious 😂
Not counting the list of video topics from last year that I still haven't touched, I'm actually discussing a new list I came up with yesterday that will keep me busy for the next 6 months... That's not counting fact-checking Beerdy's stories

I know this guy can't stop talking about Beerdy, WTH
I had the pleasure of being part of Demo Team in 1967 at master Cho All American competition at NYC Madison Sq Garden. Bruce was very humorous and very stage commanding. That experience was Shared by 3 men born in 1940. Young men with new ideas and passion that changed methods of training and contributed to enhance Martial Arts. Bruce gave a great Performance . Chuck Norris won GrandChampionship ..I got a chance to share the ring in a demo by my Dojang. And a year later 1968 competed with Norris for Grand Championship. These early years of Martial Arts were fantastic! Todays Heroes learned from the artists of the past. I am 83 years old . I continue to practice. But no longer Fly like an Eagle, But I still have ability to claw and bite !
I remember the name Ernest Lieb although I was a young buck Karate fanof 13 or 14 at the time. You're right he was no slouch. Good detective work as usual sir!
I think ernst lieb said bruce lee had superior fighting ability. Skipper mullins said hed pick bruce in any street situation
I heard about Skipper Mullens when reading Chuck Norris’s autobiography, “The Secret of Inner Strength”. Skipper Mullens, Bill Wallace, Joe Lewis, Mike Stone, and Chuck Norris were all high level competitors during that era.
What I like about your channel is that you don't just make him out to be bigger than what he already is he being Bruce Lee btw. You are doing a great job thank you for separating myth from reality.
EXCELLENT CHANNEL KEEPING THE LEGEND ALIVE AND TRUE

Hi my Brother and I started with Tae Kwon Do and then went into MMA. Right now we training under the Great Sensei Benny The Jet Urquidez for Kickboxing. The inspiration for me and my Brother to do Martial Arts , is our Dad and he showed us Enter The Dragon 🐉, Bloodsport and The Karate Kid. Love the work you do man 😃👍👍🙏👊🥋🥊
We as martial artists must study history. It is fun and helpful.
Beerdy is a legend in his own mind space and time
Props ! Great video! Thanks!
The best-ever, video of Bruce Lee for me is him playing, Ping Pong with Nunchakus. Who does that?
No one does that- it's not Bruce Lee.
I talked about it in the video about the new Bruce Lee biopic
Check your vid out on that. Thanks for the new info. 💯
Thanks again for all the truth and information about my martial arts idol Bruce Lee. I may have been one of the people who got dragged in by Beerdy. Besides reading Black Belt and a few other karate magazines I didn’t know much about that style I followed one of my older brothers when he was in taekwondo then aikido then got facilitated with gung fu there wasn’t a lot of places on the east coast particularly south east coast to study. Whatever my got he’d show me. I later found a school in West Germany that I did for a short while the late 70s with a friend and again in the early 80s. But “WOW” man your mother’s teacher was Bill Superfoot Wallace he was actually the first white guy I wanted to learn about. He was the greatest if not one of the greatest I never seen anyone use his feet like that before until Bruce Lee’s films started to pick up in the states. Superfoot was an artist I wanted to see more of him in the movies martial arts bouts wasn’t televised much that was boxing and wrestling thing. But Kool 😎 keep the informative clips coming of course I’m a subscriber. Oh I forgot to mention why I liked aikido and why it was fun. When I was at a class with my brother and the instructor was explaining aikido and demonstrated how to use a persons aggression and force against them I was floored. I was like I can avoid getting hit and make the other person look like an idiot oh I’m all for that. lol
Beerdy must put together his content after sipping beer!
Thank you for your 'down to earth' approach to Bruce's history -
Love this video, it's troubling how this "Beardy" fellow is literally damaging people's family legacies by actually making up nonsense about old pictures taken out of context, not only fabricating stories but just making up names and credentials. He Is a menace
love this video, thank you for the great story. Would have never know about Ernest Lee and his organization.
Thanks for watching 👍
As a Wing Chun student myself back in the day I am glad you are pointing out the truth, people who did not know me well thought I was full of crap when I tell them I trained under the lineage of Ip Man in the 90's under the same Wing Chun Academy which was founded by Ip Man I am privileged to have trained in this lineage, and it felt good when I demonstrated what I learnt on these critics, and I know Ip Man was not a man to mess with when he was around, Wing Chun in my experience is very effective and dangerous to the receiver, and the more one practices Wing Chun no matter if one is big or small the faster a person can be in a fight and the more dangerous a flurry of strikes will be, I love Wing Chun and respect to Grand Master Ip Man who even after he has passed away has helped so many people become exposed to such a great art...
Hello, brother-
The reason we say Ving Tsun, not Wing Chun, is because Ip Man did not want the art to be shortened to WC.
Take care.

Nice 👍
Nice to see you! Again!!
What most people recoganise to understand is that Bruce was FIRST and FOREMOST an ACTOR. He was born into an Acting family, both parents were actors.
Now add some very good martial art skills, good looks and hence the legend of Bruce Lee.
He was 125 pound 5.4" guy that lived and breathed a plan to hit the Asian martial arts movies and also ended up becoming an Icon in Western world as a Chines Martial artist.
He never fought a single tournament that proved his claims.
Thanks for sharing
he was a actor with some good books about martial arts and creating JKD while being a actor and dying with 32. maybe you did miss something along the line..how old are you? did you try JKD? some punches and kicks are unique to JKD and real good, and this with like 2000 years martial arts history. most martial arts experts grounding new styles or teach self defense..if they have some ambition outsida of "sparring" in a ring. this is that a tournament is in the end. bruce lee did make movies and fights without rules. sure there is no offical report on this, this is can become easy a crime.
Good video, I was there in the 60's and 70's, remembering The Green Hornet and Bruce as Kato, and the movie Five fingers of Death, which we believed started, for us, these kung fu movies 💪🏽😎
I was a student of Ernest Lieb in Muskegon Michigan in the late 1960s Very humble skilled instructor and a beautiful demenar saw a demonstration with Tadashi Yamachita and went to his dojo in Illinois he went into being in several movies
A well-researched and presented video!
ANOTHER GREAT VID PRINCE 🤴 , BEERDY COMES UP WITH THESE VIDEOS , BECAUSE HE HAS NO TRUE SELF ESTEEM ABOUT HIMSELF , INSTEAD OF DOING IT HONESTLY, AND LOOKING FOR PROPER RESEARCH, HE MAKES HIMSELF LOOK LIKE A FOOL . TO CONSTANTLY LIE , TO HIS AUDIENCE, MEANS TO CONSTANTLY LIE TO HIMSELF IN THE GAME OF LIFE.
Oh beardy, you been caught out again
I appreciate your facts check and your thanks to Beardy. Impressive work. May it inspirer others to check what is going on. 😽😻💖
Saw you training with Ash in I Liq Chuan. Hope you are still enjoying the training. Respect mate
Those videos with Ashe are 7 years old, I've been in Thailand since 2019. I'm hoping to get a retreat going out here, but I have to wait until my daughter is a little older - I saw you mention you also study ILC 👍
Rambo !!!🙇
inspiration is the Bruce Lee!!!🤹
This is what he put in the pinned comment on that video.
"The source for this story is the same guy who gave me the picture. He was there and saw this happen."
Great source, Beerdy. 🤣
Your videos are great by the way. I know people say not to waste time on him, but it's the only way to get the truth out as he blocks people who challenge him with facts.
Oh hey, I'm almost famous?
Thanks for the shoutout my dude - and carry on with the great work. Today, I learned to try harder when fact-checking :)
Thanks for all the research! The real story is much cooler.
Thank you for the real story
How cool is it that Bill Wallace was your mom's teacher? That blows my mind. I always respected him so much because I also tore my ACL at a young age and never got it fixed.
Keep them coming Bro!!! Bring the facts!!!
Beerdy recently said that Bruce was sucker punched on Enter The Dragon and shows the picture. The picture was from a scene in the movie where the guy hits Bruce. So his lie is actually recorded as fact. This is not helping Bruce but damaging his own credibility. Bruce doesn’t need lies to make him look good. Also Bruce would never hit a guy with his arms down. And the picture shows after Bruce punched and the guy looks fine. So it’s just to get ratings.
I have worked with people like Beerdy before. They have to tell lies to make themselves feel better about themselves even when he knew everyone's he was lying.
What about master Vic Moore???
People who were really there say he blocked Bruce Lee's 1st 2 punches. Master Moore says what we see on film is the last hit where Lee attacked a different area than where he said he was going to...
I love your channel.. much respect.. keep on punching and kicking!
Im 65 and have been looking for classes but where i live the classes are fairly expensive at least for me who is on social security . Do you have any suggestions of where i can find a good training program in wichita kansas i could afford i really like aikido
I see a lot of Jhoon Rhee in those pics... another guy that changed "Americanized" TKD, and ultimately helped create the basis for what became American Kickboxing and what we see in Sport Karate today.
Ernest Lieb didn't die during a Karate training in Germany, he died during a measurement run of the Transrapid at the Transrapid test facility in Emsland (Germany) on September 22, 2006, when it hit a workshop vehicle at a speed of around 170 km/h. With Ernest H. Lieb, 22 other people died, including another American and three other german karateka.
"Tragically, Ernie died in Lathen, Germany on Friday, September 22, 2006, in a maglev (magnetic levitation) train accident along with SFC Charles (Chuck) C. Krum, 5th Dan A.K.S., Mattheas (Matze) Augustijn, 1st Dan Shotokan, and Dagmar (Daggi) Wichterich who were both German A.K.S. students. Mr. Lieb and Sgt. Krum had traveled to Germany to conduct an A.K.S. seminar. They will all be sadly missed."
I don't wish to spoil anything for anyone, but I look forward to the "Grandmaster Baxter" clip 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the amazing video
Thanks for watching 👍
Master Lee of Hwa Wrang Do would've been a challenge. 1973 my big bro took lessons in Oxnard, Ca from him. He demonstrated stuff from "That's Incredible" show later. Master Lee was incredible so Bruce must've been even better. Joo Bang Lee of Tae Kwon Do Korea won the national karate contract instead of Master Lee. And Joo Bang Lee says every where that Bruce would knock him out no chance real time. They sparred many times and was quite above his level. With speed too
Great! Thanks you for sharing!
I studied karate as child and into my teens. I never was a snob or prejudice of other disciplines. Probably because I also engaged in wrestling and did rather well. There’s so many styles and I wish I could learn them all but we only have 1 lifetime
Good for you and thank you! So much B.S.
Forwards down forwards punch. Even Bruce couldn't take the dragon punch.
Skipper Mullins was fairly well known back in the day
That's what I learned when I made that other video 👍
Skipper Mullins is/was one of the best Martial Artists/Black Belts of all time and he can back it up hands down.
Keep on researching Prince. Can't say I ever heard of Beerdy. I lived across from Oakland Tech in the 1970's where James Lee went to school. Their studio was a few blocks away, but had closed in the mid 1960's. I took judo with Wally Jay in Alameda. I liked the workout. Punching somebody and drawing blood just wasn't my thing, but as a slippery playground wrestler, I always went for the throat. End of story. Bruce Lee got me running on the track at Oakland Tech, after reading his reflections on that famous challenge fight at his Oakland studio when he tired out.
Glad you all still find inspiration in this amazing martial artist, but don't forget to cool it. If you live in over-drive, take meditation seriously. I know Bruce's philosophic side, it drew me to him. He needed more chill time to experience the finer points of having a body-mind like water. He also liked to dress up, act rich, have fancy cars and servants.
The shadow side of status is that it draws you out instead of inwards. Action is exploited instead of internalized like a true Shaolin monk. If he lived longer, beyond the point of wanting to make it, where he could also question and unravel the self, we'd see a deeper side of Bruce Lee with an awakened mind. Now that's a story worth fantasizing.
Great information!!
I like to add in addition to your great video:
Anyone, no matter who, that states "I HATE THIS OR I HATE THAT!" are actually saying"
"I FEAR THIS & I FEAR THAT!"
Hate & Fear are born of ignorance...
To remove both:
UNDERSTAND ALL!
To Understand ALL is to live in harmony with ALL!🙏
GREAT content I LOVE hearing everything real about Bruce.
That is some STRANGE shirt Bruce is wearing in the fight in the Beerdy image. The very high turtleneck, it appears to be hiding a sling that you can see across his front and up to the corner of his right neck, is that a gun holster, under that shirt? And there appears to be something a matrix in front over his belly button. Is that a metal cage that will mess up the opponent’s hands if he gets punched?
Damn Earnest wit Chuck Norris? Sheesh. The karate scene in the 70s n 80s seem REALLLY lit. Throwing hands like men should
Nice vid. Respect.
I studied Wing Tsun in the early to mid 80's so effective you could fight in a phone booth :) great short range style..
*Wonderful Video.*
I remember Skipper Mullins. He was a tall lanky black belt rivaled Bill Wallace as a kicking specialist. The guy was practically all legs and very good at it. Very interesting that he took some lessons from Bruce also that’s a steroid like to hear more about
The more I learn about Skipper, the more impressed I am by his accomplishments. He faced Chuck Norris in the finals for Grand Champion at Ed Parker's Long Beach Internationals in '68 and was winning at one point. He even gave Chuck a black eye with a surprise backfist.
I wonder if that was something he practiced with Bruce because, up to that point, he was thought to not have any hands.
@@GoldenbellTraining I really enjoyed your video. As a young 16 year old in Dallas, Texas, I started training at Allen Steen's Karate school. Skipper Mullins lived in my neighborhood, and had been a recent student of Mr. Steen. Mr Steen was the first to receive a black belt under Jhoon Rhee, considered the Father of American Tae Kwon Do. In 1966 Mr Steen defeated both Chuck Norris and Joe Louis in the Long Beach International Karate Championship. I trained at this small karate school under Mr. Steen and tested for Brown Belt with both him and Jhoon Rhee grading the testing. Skipper Mullin's younger brother, Mike, trained with me at that time. Skipper went into the military, as many of us did at that time, and eventually came back. The stories about his lightning fast feet were true. Mr Steen and Chuck Norris remained good friends, and Mr Steen retired from competition in 1967. I moved away and continued to study Tae Kwon Do through the years, but later settled into a style called Shaolin Chuan Fa, which combined Shaolin Kung Fu styles with Kenpo. I became a black belt in that style and, though older now, continue to learn and now enjoy channels such as yours. Thanks for all the work you put into your research so the rest of us can learn and enjoy it.
Thanks for the facts. Beerdy is actually doing Bruce Lee a disservice with his stories🤔
Not only Bruce Lee - he's making up fake stories about real accomplished people who always turn out to be friends with Bruce.
@@GoldenbellTraining so true,thanks for pointing that out
Since when do you qualify as a Grand Master at 7th Dan?! Nah………9th and above. Wallace is a true legend.
I began my studies of karate in 1967. One thing I have learned is that the "history of martial arts" that is passed out to naive students in karate schools (I have studied at several) is often total nonsense. If you want to know the REAL history of martial arts you have to go online and find books from legitimate sources. It's far more complex than most martial artists, even experienced instructors, ever realize. And the fake stories surrounding Bruce Lee are the worst. I loved this video!!!
I thought a Grand master had to be a 10th degree black belt, not a 7th degree? !
Bruce had to slow down to be filmed. His speed was unbelievable. He could kick 3times in one blink, and his hands were even faster.
yes, and you saw it
Bruce was fast, but this rumor about cameras having to slow down in order to capture his speed is campfire folklore. The fact is, slowing down the camera would have the opposite effect. If a cameraman wants to slow a subject down, they speed up the camera. Also, Bruce couldn't kick three times in the blink of an eye. In fact, none of the best kickers in martial arts could accomplish that.
@@TomBleecker he’s joking
@@Ivorytickler12341 What makes you think he's joking? I've seen this false claim made for decades.
Calm down fanboy, you sound about 12 years old.
Julian changing this life karaté was not the way of martial arts
Real cool!
Bruce went missing for three months in 1967 we now know he lead a 6 man crew of Marines in to North Vietnam to capture Ho Chi man Bruce took out 500 NVA but Ho Chi man was able to escape.
