Bruce Lee was the best martial artist to ever make a movie. Bruce was the real deal and influenced every martial arts practitioner who ever watched his movies. It's such a shame that both Bruce Lee and his son, Brandon, died so young and with so much left yet to acheive. RIP, father and son!
I’ve read a ton of stuff on it and though I like Bruce lee better and his movies are better but from what I’ve read Jet Li is supposed to be a better fighter. We need a Bruce Lee be Jet Li video
He got me through so many things in life when I was struggling I looked up to him like a father figure and it's strange because he was born on the year of the dragon and I was born on the year of the dragon 1976 July he passed away 1973 July 3 years before I was born he taught me so much about martial arts just by watching him reading his books etc. and I still cry when I think about him passing away I hope I get to see him and talk to him in heaven with our heavenly father if I make it there thank you God for giving us such a beautiful ,wonderful and awesome teacher who you took for obvious reasons probably a super soldier angel who kills demons
Not so fun fact: it is now believed that Bruce Lee died because he had a procedure to remove sweat glands off his body. He did this to appear less sweaty while filming, but it may have actually resulted in him overheating (don't forget the end of the video specified that the AC was off) and dying. It really is tragic to think that he could have lived so much longer.
@@tysquirt111 Engage in two things please: 1. Basic biology. Humans have the most widely dispersed sweat glands in the animal kingdom. They are literally everywhere on the human body. Such an operation would not and cannot exist. Okay I should end there, but just to throw in a little something to beat back the credulity on such matters: 2. Sweat is basic and extremely attractive in action movies. You'll see people sweating in the cold, in any remotely hot or active setting or situation, and of course streaming sweat in, dare I say it, pornos. Sweat is does not detract from an "action" (ahem) scene, it enhances it. Go ahead and try to remove a thousand sweat blands from the human body ... not only is it crazy, but it's actually counter-gproductive. If you're playing an FBI agent -- don't sweat a drop. If you're playing a physically active star, enhance the feel of physical activity by showing all the ... yep, you guessed it ... sweat.
@@dingfeldersmurfalot4560 bruce lee had the sweat glands under his armpits removed. This is pretty common knowledge. Any one of the hundreds of biographies on his will say that. I didn't mean all his sweat glands, just those. And they are extremely important. Heat stroke usually presents with swelling of the brain, which is what Lee allegedly died of. You're speaking of sweat as though you're talking about modern films. Bruce Lee was not a modern actor. Sweat stains under his arms annoyed him and he had them removed.
@@tysquirt111 This is probably the most bizarre theory regarding his death that I've ever seen, and I started in the early 70's. This is not at all something any of the hundreds of biographies of him will affirm, if there even are hundreds of biographies of him that are more than the crazy Hong Kong journalism of the time represent, which ascribed to him everything from Satanic ritual to Buddhist sainthood. Again, the human body has thousands of sweat glands, far more than all animals but dogs and wolves. Lee couldn't have taken his sweat glands out, to any appreciable extent, even if he had wanted to -- and for an action star, he wouldn't have. I appreciate your enthusiasm, but there simply isn't much sense in this theory. Think it through for at least a few moments, and you will likely settle in on a more sensible explanation.

Thank you Simon... for this one in particular. Every since as a young teen I saw Kato in the Green Hornet series, I fell for Bruce Lee. Now I don’t do martial art, or anything really physical, but that was not what caught me.. it was his style, his calmness his demeanour his way of talking so soft spoken you just had to listen. Yes so much has been said about this great man and it’s great you added your voice and research to solidify my love for such a man as the world will never see his better. He will always remain the top. Sounds like worship, it’s not, just true appreciation of a great leader. Some of the documentaries about him are also very revealing and great. Thank you again. I love this channel as I love all your other ones. 👍👍👍 namaste 🙏
Mr. Lee was my idol as a teenage kid in the 70’s. I remember it from the perspective of living in Mr. Lees time. It was devastating to me when he died and I still feel bad about his loss.
As a martial artist he’s always been an inspiration. Always made me want to push past my limits and improve as much as I could. Sad to say it’s been a while since I trained, but hearing about him reignites me to get at it again.
Thank you for doing Bruce’s memory justice by keeping it simple and sticking to the facts, especially those that that are rarely known or have been exaggerated. I would like to ask that you do one of these for his son Brandon as well.
An excellent and accurate biography there. I salute you. I can only add that Yip Man only gave Bruce a handful of lessons in Wing Chun. Bruce was largely taught by Yip Man’s top student, Wong Shun Leung. Bruce also didn’t consider Jeet Kune Do to be a style in it’s own right, but rather a philosophy on effective martial arts.
After sitting here for long periods of time watching videos hosted by Simon I believe I can officially say this: Simon Whistler is the doorman to the RUclips rabbit hole. Some fascinating stuff across all the channels. Well done sir.
1. James Coburn is not Lee Marvin, and it was Coburn, one of Bruce's students, that he was working with on the proposed movie 2. Bruce trained with William Cheung, not William Yung.
So glad you posted this. I can’t even count the number of professed ‘professionals’ that state Bruce had never been in a real fight, sanctioned or otherwise. Here, you stated not one but several instances where Bruce proved the effectiveness of his style against true fighters, both boxers and mixed art professionals. Great job. Of course, you and your crew always do a great job!
The one thing missed from this video was his influence on martial arts as a whole which also influenced his movies. Bruce Lee was an avid student of other martial arts, some of which came from his boxing training but also from working with jujitsu expert Wally Jay who believed in bringing in other martial arts into someone's training. Lee brought in other marital arts techniques into his fighting style which would later be known as Jee Kwon Do. In the book that Lee later published there are a variety of martial arts techniques which are not native to Kung Fu. In short Bruce Lee is also one of the first proponents of mixed martial arts. He also revolutionized the fighting in martial arts movies by adding other techniques, for instance the high kicking style see in his movies are more Korean influence than Chinese. Lee also influenced other marital artists and probably is the one responsible for many people studying the martial arts in the first place.
I had the absolute honor to meet Dan Inasanto during a seminar@ a dojo in northern Virginia... what a wonderful human. at the age of 70, he had an iron grip I will never forget, he was teaching knife fighting defense/offense tech and spent some time helping me refine the moves, seriously one of the best experiences of my life
Bruce Lee was more than just a martial artist, or than a movie star. I was an icon. His philosophy itself could take up an entire video. Bruce taught us to be like water. Not to fight life, but to fill the spaces that life reveals to us, the openings it creates when we aren’t even aware of them. He lived by not getting frustrated when he lost out on Kung Fu. There will never be another Bruce Lee.
First channel I ever elected to get notifications from. Now it's a high point for the day. This, TopTenz,Today I found out... fantastic work from all involved. It's one of the few forums where the host just simply presents the topic in a most entertaining way, without showing bias. Except Hitler. You can't hide that Simon. You really hate the guy :) Good on ya.
“Too Chinese to play Shaolin monk”. I love the stories where bigots suffer from their own bigotry. They could’ve had a legendary show, but lost the chance due to their own racism. Lol.
@SUCKMEOFF ROPER How is it specific? Its just Hollywood but in india, or is it just white people you must bully? if you knew about bruce lee you would know that he said Hong Kong cinema is no different, they like only Chinese heroes, so why don't you complain about that?
@SUCKMEOFF ROPER "The majority of white people are racist" Congrats, you are a racist. No they are not and you definitely cant speak for all of them. It's just ALOT of the silver-toweredx Hollywood millionaires who are. Though today, they act like they care for different ethnicities and ideologies.
I always used to confuse those Two as well. But for a "Bruce Lee aficionado," it's a well known fact that Bruce & Coburn were close friends as well as Teacher & Student. Even thinking of Lee Marvin in the same realm as Bruce is a testament that this "Biographer" needs to check his fact more carefully. LEE MARVIN! Imagine Bruce with him in all of his "Naked gun" films!? ; )
When you make Bruce Lee bleed and he proceeds to dab his fingers in the wound and taste his own blood.. it's on like Donkey Kong. " The art of fighting without fighting " - BRUCE LEE
As a martial artists and is being in a martial art family this man is my hero , is wisdom was beyond his age. One of my favorite quotes of his is: “running water never go stale” I love that!
Great video. I've never been a huge fan of Kung Fu movies or Bruce Lee for that matter, but I find his power and discipline incredibly inspirational whenever I hear about him.
Bruce Lee feel in love with the art of fighting since childhood. Ironically, he was of slight build and not of a robust body type. A true legend - got his photo on my bedroom wall
I would love to have seen what Lee's *_ORIGINAL_* version of _Game of Death_ would have been like, given how reportedly the plot was supposed to be about an ex-martial artist having to fight his way up a five-level pagoda tower in order to save his family from a Korean underworld gang.
This was very good,I showed this to someone who said that Bruce was just an actor..he went very quite when I showed him what Bruce had achieved in his short life..excellent video. "There is no help but self help" -Bruce Lee
Damn, a Bruce Lee, Lee Marvin film. I can not imagine how awesome that would have been! Btw, Didn't Bruce Lee help come up with the concept for the series Kung fu? The video made it sound like it was a role that he simply didn't get.
I remember that I first saw Enter the Dragon back in 1973. This inspired me to enroll in a Tae Kwon Do academy. I watched all his movies, but the one that really enthralled me was Enter the Dragon. I watched it 8 times over the course of 4 years. At the first chance I get I'll watch it again. A real master and artist. RIP Bruce
What my karate teacher taught me - if you can avoid fighting do so - the best thing to do - is to run away...if you need to... defend yourself... then run..fighting is a last resort...
Simon, it is not the most complete bio of Bruce Lee but in 17 mins is pretty damn good. (y) Another great video , Simon :) I think i have seen most of this channel's videos but there is no way i'm watching a bio of a fool ( Pierce Morgan) not even if it is 1minute long. lol
He'll always be the big boss. RIP Bruce & Brandon.💞 Dan Inosanto was friends with my kids' sensei. He showed me an old photo album. He also sparred with Chuck Norris back in the day. Pretty cool.
I’m actually watching this so I can watch an ERB video, great video though! This was the first I ever saw of your channel, and I know this is an older video but still, great job!
i am the Bruce Lee biggest fan in the world of all time yet i never knew He did percussions on The Way Of The Dagon too! now i will have to watch and listen again, thanks for this! i love your channel!
Well done, but I believe you left out the fact that Betty gave Bruce one of her equagesic's before he laid down. That is what caused the next cerebral edema event that ultimately took his life (allergic reaction to her medication).
one-of us Pretty well documented...look it up. Also - strange that though her apartment (where Bruce was at) was only 14 minutes away from the hospital, it took them over 45 minutes to get him there. :-/
"A fighter is not a fighter if he cannot win a fight against himself."

One of my favorite quotes ever- I recite it in my head often
You see many jokes about Chuck Norris but not a single one about Bruce Lee.
That's because *Bruce Lee was no joke*
Bruce lee is dead that's why
Oof
Because unlike chuck norris, bruce lee could act
Chuck still has this breathing thing mastered that's the difference
Man if there were more people like Bruce Lee many other people might have a future...
That just goes to show that no matter how tough you are everyone needs rest and he didn't get enough. RIP

100th like so far, and I agree completely!
Bruce Lee was a highly intelligent master of Kung Fu, a great teacher and author and philosopher. He was taken too soon as was his son Brandon. RIP

I love that Bruce was born in the same day and month, and came to my home country and film here at least once in his life time.
WE NEED Brandon
Father and son
He was my role model when I was growing up. Thanks Bruce 🙏
great details,but one is incorrect he injured his back while doing the 'good morning' exercise
i am the Bruce Lee biggest fan in the world of all time yet i never knew He did percussions on The Way Of The Dagon too! now i will have to watch and listen again, thanks for this! i love your channel!
Enter the Dragon is how I found out about Bruce Lee
Well done, but I believe you left out the fact that Betty gave Bruce one of her equagesic's before he laid down. That is what caused the next cerebral edema event that ultimately took his life (allergic reaction to her medication).
Wow, first time I heard that.
one-of us Pretty well documented...look it up. Also - strange that though her apartment (where Bruce was at) was only 14 minutes away from the hospital, it took them over 45 minutes to get him there. :-/
-Chow dragged out time due to Lee leaving for Hwood , he rather Lee be dead than Hwood or others profit on him
Long live the legend of the Dragon. Rest in everlasting Peace, Bruce Lee.
All of these are so fascinating! Thank you, Simon, and crew!
Really love the music playing in this one
Theodore Roosevelt would be an awesome biographic
Bully! Just bully!
That was one of the better bios I've ever seen on him. Good work!!
very impressive that he could die on "january the 20th 1973" and then still manage to dub enter the dragon on "may the 10th 1973"
That was THE best video you’ve ever done. Loved it. Bruce Lee was my God when I was young.
Bruce Lee legit looks like my 5th grade teacher wtf
like in his 20s
did u teacher say "don't think! FEEEEEEEEEL" ?
Bruce Lee, FTW. An Absolute Legend.
@biographics Please make a video on Yip Man ! =D The movies about him are awesome, but I doubt half of them are true!
Bruce lee is an idol to any person that does any sort if sport
How about a video on Niels Bohr?
I think this has become my favourite bio!! Well done, please keep it up x
RIP Bruce & Brandon Lee u 2 died 2 young. 🙏
Still and will always be the greatest of all time!! Gone way to soon.
I don't remember any of this being mentioned in "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story."
This was a fantastic biography my friend. One of the best I've seen thank you🐲🐉💯
