I found this interesting, I knew he did all of his own stunts, but this is unbelievable what he did to get good shots.


I'm thinking of watching some of his older movies now, are they in English or not? I know drunken master is a good one, but I've never seen it. Any suggestions?

ENJOY!

    I remember reading about a scene he did where he had to kick a ping pong ball through a tiny hole or something, took many, many shots, but he did it!
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    my brother and i used to watch rumble in the bronx ALL the time...


    i think jackie chan actually broke his foot jumping from one building to another, so they put this sock like thing over the cast, only the sock had a running shoe pattern... so it looked like he was just wearing two shoes... and he went on with the movie...

    oops nm: i should have watched before posting... they showed the clip where he breaks his leg

    While I don't really enjoy his "funny" movies, I was thoroughly impressed by his stunt skills. He is insane for doing some of those things, especially the helicopter one.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    speak of the devil, right after reading this thread today at work (video store) some guy (who went on about his love for nickelback) asked me what that movie was with owen wilson and "that chinaman"

    :eek: THAT, CHINAMAN? are you kidding me? you dont refer to jackie chan as, THAT chinaman..

    The Legend of Drunken Master is the greatest. Police Story 2 is up there... the whole shopping mall scene is unreal.

    First Strike has the ladder fight, which is just about the coolest fight I have ever seen.

    He probably didn't know it's a derogatory term now. I remember Steve Kerr got into trouble for referring Yao Ming as one but he wasn't aware of it as un-PC. he thought it was like calling Tony Parker as Frenchman.

    customer: what was the name of that asian martial arts guy?
    me: (first asian guy who comes to mind) jackie chan?!
    customer: NO (insinuating my stupidity)! i said ASIAN, he's chinese.
    me: ?
