    How Bruce Lee Changed The World

    Anybody else catch it tonight on History Channel? You don't realize how much more he impacted other stuff besides martial arts.

        He kicked Chuck Norris's butt onscreen thats enough in my book.
        Lo there do I see my Father.
        Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
        Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
        Lo they do call me.
        They bid me take my place among them.

          He was an amazing, spiritual man.
          Read his book, Striking Thoughts. It's a bible to spiritual life.

          And he was the real thing. He fought for real, his power was no movie trick.
          He did the "one inch punch", striking down a man by just moving his fist forward one inch. And that guy just flew back!

          And did you see the footage in the home of James Coburn?
          You see Coburn hitting his punching bag. Nothing special there.
          Then Lee hits the bag full force and that thing exploded in a cloud of vapour!!!

          We never saw the true glory of Bruce Lee, all his potential.
          Check out his biopic "Dragon".

            I DVR'd it last night. He is one of my favorite people. Interesting guy. I can't wait to watch it tonite.

              Seriously Bruce Lee was probably the closest thing to a real Super hero we've had. Makes you wonder....

                  I'll have to find this. I have always been a Bruce Lee fan. He did have a positive influence, but there was so much tragedy surrounding his life, and much of it self-inflicted. He was a real walking contradiction.

                      The fact that so many body builders look up to him is amazing in itself. I loved hearing Jackie Chan talking about working with Bruce as a stunt man.

                        I too was amazed at how ahead of his time Bruce Lee was. Jacking Chan saying over and over that Bruce Lee was number 1 was very respectul. Good program.

                            bruce lee was definitely an all around person. he had great physical strength and abiltiy matched with spiritual and philosophical in sight.
