Now I'm willin' to believe this real because it's Bruce Lee and he is a legend of legend in the world of fighting. But--I may be pointin' out the obvious--surely this is special FX? Or have I am provin' my simpleness by saying somethin' we all know?

Surely this can't be real. No-one is THAT good, even the The King of Martial Arts, Brucey Lee.

Really, or does the line between the real and unreal confound us?

Oh, I think it could be very real. For a moment I was into checking out martial arts and some of the things, true documentation, of what they could do and what they do to this day is considered by some to be unreal. Nun-chucks are used as weapons so that basically means the person adapt at using them has the ability to make the end he's not holding hit wherever he or she wants. You do the same thing with a ping pong pad except it's one piece instead of two. Not only do I think it's capable for Bruce Lee to hit a ping pong back with a nun-chuck but I think others adept in nun-chuckery can do it as well.

Could it be fake? Of course. People fake a lot of shit. Even easier in this day and age. Could Bruce Lee do this? I definitely think so. He, like many others, has the ability to move his nun-chucks to hit a point he sees fit, he can see the ping pong coming just like the guy with the paddle, and I'm sure he's practiced deflecting even smaller and deadlier objects than ping-pong balls.

Yeah, it's a fake. Dude with nun chucks is an actor--I wondered why they never had a close up of his face. Chuck Norris and all his moustached glory would have been well and truly eclipsed had this been true.

I looked it up... It's actually a Nokia commercial.

However-  he did do some phemoneal things.  They had to use faster speed film to catch his movements on camera...  He also did 2 fingered push ups, in front of HUNDREDS of people in the 1964 Long Beach International karate Championships...




I happen to be doing s seminar on a really BORING topic... which will be veiwed by a room full of (assumedly) hetero women... So I spiced it up with BRUCE LEE REFERNCES and lots of topless, buff photos of Bruce!

Oh, yeah.... the older ladies tomorrow are going to LOVE my seminar....

I tried a one hand push up once. It didn't go too well. I don't even wanna know how much practice and training it would take for me to take on a two finger. I'm getting tired just thinking about it. Let me go take a nap.

Don't even get me started on Bruce Lee.  He was a physical beast! Apparently he had bad nutrition aswell, and yet was an absolute specimen.

The guy was intelligent, ripped to shreds, and a fighting machine--oh yeah, and movie star! I bet Linda Lee never bought a washboard, either; just used those abs.
