On the thing with „Bruce discarded Wing Chun“….I studied and still train JKD for decades, all of my teachers were first generation students of Bruce, so I think I got a pretty decent education on the art. When I read David Petersons book on Wing Chun „Pointing finger to the moon“ I found more valid principles on JKD in it, than in any other of the so called Jeet Kune Do books…..so what does that tell you?

This is a long one Sifu Alex, but I would love to hear your take on it. The trouble I see with a lot of Wing Chun guys is that most of them really become pros on defending themselves from their own style. Becouse every attack they do is somehowv a WC attack with the vertical fist. And then they learn to defend ithis attack that no one would do on the street, except if your fighting your own team mates . So basicly they learn to deal with their own style most of the time. And now and then they'll throw in some "street atacks" that no one would do anyway and then learn to deffend that imaginary attack from your Sifu who knows exactly how to deal with it especially when you do it slow "and you don't want to make your sifu look bad so you comply". All and all you learn somewhat to deal with your own style especially.. and some other similar traditional styles. Yet we complain on having big trouble facing street fighters who jab and hook and wrestle. Is it time that we start modernizing our approach and making our style relevant for modern time and space Whats youe take? Forgive my english.

Nobody killed him. No sign of foul play. Bruce signed up for early mortality when he refused to relax after his back injury. He collapsed before but wouldnt stop training. The other side is their failure to call ambulance early. And lack of MRI services to scan his brain from the start. Very unfortunate circumstances😢 In short, a not so advanced era where his condition could have been prevented by early detection.

I know there have been books written about Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison’s final months, weeks, days…. Would it be worth it for an author to delve into Bruce Lee’s final months in great detail ? Is there enough material ? Because I only know bits and pieces, mainly through this wonderful channel, but honestly I have a fascination for that kind of stuff. Has the whole truth ever been revealed ? Or is there enough to lay an interesting puzzle ? Let’s call it the shadow side of fame and fortune. I find these exceptional icons, whether in music, movies, sports, painting, politics and warfare, … even more interesting because of that often deeply flawed humanity in them, so many personalities often full of contradictions and hidden vices, full of drama.

Woow, a video reply for me!! Ohh look, Ashida Kim Corn! Thanks alot KFG!! :) Nice to know even the back drop of why this became a thing... One of the many reasons for asking this was indeed from watching videos by wackypedia of wang chung... Recently, I was quite intrigued with the unveiling of his sources. But few episodes in, I watch his guest trip and stumble at narrating his secret style now open to the public with the onset of dementia of his sifu... Convenient, no questions will be asked! There is even a point there where wackypedia inadvertently pointed out a paradox of the guest's assertion of yipman and his sigung's association.... *cut* video proceeds few moments later, hahaha... How can wackypedia take this with a straight face while murdering logic. Gave me a glimps this guy's mind and how good he is sticking different things together with his sticky hands... Anyway! :) Key to this were the use of the maxims to search for older links to other wing chun branches.. and then subliminally implying yipman stole them because their lineage is older!! ;P Hung Mun History with sprinklings of unverifiable things but then there are some genuinely interesting things name dropped that gave me pause... In short, another dumpster fire...

I think it would be hard to not crack up laughing with these two. Oh man. Mad funny. 5:20 right! The shifting. They don’t know that as well in GWOH SAO. Gor sao amd or mattress training. Meaning, it’s ok to try n tie somebody up, but when you can incorporate that loss of balance, with two hands on all cylinders, now we’re talking business. Touching light on your point about Europe and Hong Kong. 9:12 such a good point, about getting hit when it doesn’t look CLEAN. Ya, you’re gonna get hit. I was hoping that would help people understand why jkd focuses so much on 5 ways of attack and using bui gee and Cheung very aggressively. The idea of putting positive firepower on em ending it faster. Hope that rings through. 😬✊💯19:20 yup. Way less attention than in Europe. A few people instead of big rooms full of people. Not too serious. The attendance. 23:14 i heat that. As far as what each guy can do rather than how long they’ve been learning/teaching.
