Evidently, you guys don't know the events that occurred during the rehearsing of this scene. In the original sequence, Bruce did exactly what you were suggesting, a spinning back or thrust kick, but as Bruce turned, he cut his left hand on one of the jagged edges of the glass that Wall was holding. The production was held up for about 7 days because Bruce needed stitches.
The guy Bruce Lee is fighting is actor/martial artist BOB WALL, who also was in Bruce Lee's previous movie, WAY OF THE DRAGON, and Bruce's final movie GAME OF DEATH.
First off, who's gonna get up after being kick with that full blast side kick after absorbing the previous blows in the match? The broken bottle scene, then the leaping stomp, was Lee's thought process for the audience!
While filming, They did the bottle breaking scene before the shuffle kick. In the bottle breaking scene, Bob accidentally cut Bruce’s hand (you can see the bandage when they shot the scene again) and Bob was nervous about the shuffle kick scene. He kept asking anyone who had just spoke to Bruce or was near him “is he pissed off?” To which he was told “Bruce is gonna get ya” while chuckling. Bruce have the kick a little bit more juice than they rehearsed. 😂 Also, Bruce did not do any flips in the film, those were done by his acrobatic stunt double. I forget his name, but he was the pervert landlord in Kung Fu Hustle.
You're spot on...the accident with the bottle happend cause Bob Wall held it to long after the kick...so Bruce was very pissed of this dangerous mistake and you're right about his stunt double...Bruce couldn't take risks due to his back injury and that stund double was the best and lookliked Lee's twinbrother
the first 'trap' was not a grab and pull down. It is Pak-Dar-simultaneous slap block to the forearm/wrist while punching. If you can slow it down or have frame advance, you can see it...or if you've had any Wing Chun/JKD/Hung-Gar training, as it is a common technique.
O'Hara was already to go and Bruce knew it so the outside Cresent kick was just disarm him..very smart but in production Bruce got cut because O'Hara (Bob Wall Rip) was to slow to get in position a Bruce was to fast as a result production had to stop till Bruce healed. Bruce was so fast the camera man thought about another career.
Regarding Bruce kicking the bottle out of Wall's hand, not only would it be impractical in a real fight, (and something he would probably never do) but from what I understand it didn't even work as a stunt the first time either. Supposedly Wall's timing was off and Lee actually cut himself on the glass on the first take. Some people suggest that later Lee got revenge by kicking Wall so hard when they shot the next scene that it broke his ribs. But I don't think Bruce would be that petty and he and Wall were close friends as Wall was his student for many years by the time this was shot. Also, in Lee's book Tao Jeet Kune Do he has an entire chapter devoted to closing distance and timing your attack, and he exemplifies those techniques in the scenes before the bottle attack, where he is delivering the roundhouse kicks just as Wall starts his move. Though I doubt he would use those kicks in a fight. They just look better on screen. It's a great book for anyone getting into marital arts.
@@ryanramkissoon1630 True. His film fighting style was something he developed just for the screen. The closest we'll ever get to seeing Lee's real fighting style is the short clip of him doing full contact sparring at the LB tournament and even that was tempered.
I recently learned that too. He apparently had no problem with gymnastic kung fu manuevers until he injured his lower sacral thoracic nerve in 1969, just 4 years before his death. And since the movie thing only happened for him at the last 1.5 year of his life he needed that stunt double for any landing that reverberates to that spine area. He was also prescripted a form of steroids to heal that thoracic injury.
The outside crescent kick againt thr broken bottle attack wasnt Bruces first choice. He had another sequence that he came up with but during the first take ir maybe rehearsal, Bob Wall let go of the bottle too late when Bruce did a spin and ended up slicing Bruce's hnd open.
@@codylowecommunion Bruce was my childhood hero and at 53yo I'm still amazed at what he's done. People can say bad things about him now but the man was WAY ahead of his time.
ODH is Left handed. His jab and left hook are highlight reels. Be boxed in conventional stance his whole career... Only TBud has been so dominant being ambidextrous... . Say whatever but he struggled last fight, he has no biz at that weight class. 147 welterweight is the limit. I hate the Canelo call out because Canelo is fully built for 168 and no lower. Horrible fight for TBud even though he's the better fighter. Size matters.
I don't think the words "Bruce Lee" and "miss" should really be in the same phrase. For frick's sake, the guy played ping pong with a nunchaku! Compared to that level of precision, kicking the guy's hands in the perfect moment is really piece of cake. I don't mean for us, mere mortals of course... Also, a jab like that from him in my opinion could totally knock down someone. Remember, he exercised with 135 kg punching bags, he did 1500 pushups in one go. For his size he was unbelievably strong. Once he dislocated someone's shoulder with a slap (!) that according to him wasn't even that strong.
Ping pong footage is not Bruce Lee. It was done in black and white in the 2000's as a promotion for an overseas product. IIRC it was for the Nokia phone. Just Google "Bruce Lee ping pong Nokia" and you'll find info on it.
Bruce Lee was more powerful than you think
that is a factttt

Awesome comment. Never knew that

Believe it or not Bob Wall was sometimes Lee's bodyguard.
@@ErnestoGuaderrama-ny9bsNo, that was another Bob. Bob Baker, who played the Russian fighter Petrov, in Fist of Fury/Chinese Connection.

Yueh Wah is the name of the stuntman.

Bruce lee didn't have a stuntman he confirmed that he did all the moves himself
@@jordancharm6780He did. Yuen Yah was his stuntman for all his flips and somersaults. For all the fighting moves it was 100% Bruce Lee.
the first 'trap' was not a grab and pull down. It is Pak-Dar-simultaneous slap block to the forearm/wrist while punching. If you can slow it down or have frame advance, you can see it...or if you've had any Wing Chun/JKD/Hung-Gar training, as it is a common technique.
The actor's name is Bob Wall he was also in Way of the Dragon.
He's also a martial artist and partner under Chuck Norris. Always praised Bruce until he died then started talking crap
You should see BRUCE LEE in the
WAY OF THE DRAGON. the bedroom sean. The speed of him he is infront of the mirror...
love that scene
My favorite Bruce Lee
I rewatched this movie the other night and it convinced to take a Jeet Kune Do soon!
When bruce side kicked ohara into the crowd, the guy behind bob wall got a broken arm from the impact!
10:59… ✌️
I thought Lee jumped on Wall’s neck. Couldn’t THAT kill someone?

Problem is Bruce did not fight like this in real life

I agree 100 percent. Great book as well
Actually Lee did get cut but not on his legs or feet, no. The kick was unharmed.
@@paulpolpiboon9535 Yes. It's been a long time since I read about it but I think Lee was cut on his hand or arm.
The guy in the yellow went on to play as the villain Blind Man in the Billy Chong movie Jade Claw.
I just recently learned that wasn't Bruce doing a flip. Bruce actually had a stump double.

It was written that Bruce fought strong side forward. It meant you were quicker in your response and actions.
My g Bruce was not just an actor Bruce was really strong and his speed is really fast.
Whenever one shows this scene, YOU MUST start off with the “Mr. Lee… ARE YOU READY?” part. To not do so is a travesty!
facts. #failed
kick flip on Ohara´s face was not bruce , but his stunt , Yuen wah
I think O'Hara actor is Bob Wall.
an outside shin would be a better choice or an outside elbow chop if you are going to intercept and counter that kick was for the cameras :)
You're absolutely right, but is it gonna look good in a movie?
😂
Bob wall a student of bruce lee and becomes bodyguard and co actor
The outside crescent kick againt thr broken bottle attack wasnt Bruces first choice. He had another sequence that he came up with but during the first take ir maybe rehearsal, Bob Wall let go of the bottle too late when Bruce did a spin and ended up slicing Bruce's hnd open.
Wow. Had no idea!! Thanks for the info!
@@codylowecommunion Bruce was my childhood hero and at 53yo I'm still amazed at what he's done. People can say bad things about him now but the man was WAY ahead of his time.
He kicked the bottle. Out of his hands because! He just side kicked him across the island!
He so fast

He never played ping pong with a nunchaku, that video was fake..
You guys have no idea what your talking about, respectively.
Great reaction guys have you heard of Michael Jai White?

Bruce Lee is still alive also Brandon Lee his son they are in witness protection program do your research 🧐
BRUCE LEE was to fast
Cocaine does that.
