[TONELONGJKD3930]

[xTLzZ]

[xTLzZ]

@pussiestrocker shes older than ur grandma u idiot

[pussiestroker]

Is that Linda back in the day? Damn, she was hot.

[yeon723]

@pussiestroker That was not Linda.

[21xxx21]

Who disliked this video is now probably dead

[Crossover3king]

0;59 the girl nxt to him yow

[handpro]

The dislike bar is just like Justin Bieber penis, he just don't have it.

[billvw1974]

Taken too soon ,bruce had so much more to give us.

[sylart57]

@Timmevds I wasn't referring to his fighting skills, but his eternal soul.

[2pacslimshady]

Bruce lee forever will be missed!

''Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.''

- Bruce Lee

[sylart57]

Yeah, it's kinda heartbreaking that he didn't believe in God. I still have a lot of respect for him though...but, it's really a shame.

[bigkckrva]

@sylart57 he believes.."everyone that lives under the sun? is equal to 1 universe".. , that make sense if u think about it..

[jimmychuang]

@sylart57 he believed in god actually, he just didn't believe any religions. It's pretty easy to understand, this man broke the rule of traditional chinese martial arts, he was the 1st dared to say no style was complete, and considered style should be changed and improved.

This man just didn't believe any system and rules, and he didn't believe authority. but he believed in GOD, just not believing in religions. he said religions only separate people. It's right sometimes.

[chingate691]

@jimmychuang On belief in God. - To be perfectly frank, I really do not believe in God. If there is a God, he is within. (Striking Thoughts, Bruce Lee, p. 76)

[XXXXNanoXXXxxx]

@jimmychuang Bruce lee didnt believe in god! he even says it here and in his memos and in his books!! And also who the fuck believe in god? LMFAO... ALL HAIL ZEUS!! dumbest shit ever...

[jimmychuang]

yeah maybe, but Bruce was not a hater, he didn't deny religions, he respected for what other's belief, I think you should, too.

[Timmevds]

@sylart57 how is that heartbreaking? that's one of the most awesome things he found out he shouldn't trust god to do it for him he found out he had to do it himself

[PANZYUTUBEIS]

THANK YOU!!!!!!!

[mcpartridgeboy]

what the hek is BL doing in a karate competition

[SheaGrubbs]

@mcpartridgeboy Most Karate tourneys are open, meaning most styles of Martial Arts can enter. On May 7th, I'm actually competing in the Cottonbelt Karate Nationals and I'm in Choy Li Fut Kung Fu.

[kounavongkid]

i love finding bruce lee interviews i havent seen yet

[DariushUFC1985]

what did bruce answer when he asked if he belives in God?

[kounavongkid]

@DariushUFC1985

To be perfectly frank, i really do not

[DariushUFC1985]

@kounavongkid thank u

[casketmouth]

@DariushUFC1985 no he didn't

[Leaklips]

Wow, thanks a lot for this video, this is a rare gem... Really great footage

[S1NGL34ss4ss1N]

I like the fact that there's no dislike, this video deserves it!!

[DarkAteeq]

He Deserves This..

[S1NGL34ss4ss1N]

@DarkAteeq Yes he does, he deserves more than this... I respect him

[vincent7125]

when you punch there are no fixed position in jkd punch it can be right , left, or even back, unlike most martail art when they punch thier head in fixed postion

[noformstyle]

Who is the blonde next to Bruce??

[MrAnderson1985]

@noformstyle If I'm not mistaken I think thats his wife Linda.

[noformstyle]

@MrAnderson1985 She doesn't look like Linda at all. Anyway Bruce deserve to tap that :)

[TheIntiman1]

I have never seen this video and i havebeen searching for brucelee everything everywhere ,really god that you have this video , Thank You!!

[ohdamnitsdee101]

really wish i could hear him teaching

@___@

[10supermans]

YALL PEOPLE JUST WANT BRUCE TO FIGHT AND FIGHT TELL HE LOSE FUCK YALL THERE AINT NO JERRY CONNY HERE SORRY NO GREAT WHITE HOPE !!!!!! ha HA fuck yall bruce is the best????

[RISEUPOLORD]

@10supermans There's no need to be racist. For your information Bruce Lee was part white, his grandfather was German on his mother's side ( which is why the majority of the Chinese schools rejected him ) because of him being 25% white.

[10supermans]

@RISEUPOLORD i was not being racist but all the white people on here was saying nagative shit so this was to them if u fit in that catagory ow well im a fan of bruce lee so that means i no what race he is and when u broke it down to me how much percent of white is in him hes still chinese because if u mix any color with whit u still get another color white right i am black if u mix me with whit im still a nigger to u white right / just because he got fame hes white then chinese NOT hes a chinigr

[RISEUPOLORD]

@10supermans I wasn't attacking you, I just think we shouldn't react to racism with more racism or with hostility, that way we would never solve anything in this world.

I'm a big Bruce Lee fan as well, anybody who can punch 6 times in one second gets my respect lol

Peace.

[10supermans]

@RISEUPOLORD well im sorry that we both said things we r sorry 4 so like roddny king said lets get a long lol peace !!! 10SUPERMANS

[10supermans]

@RISEUPOLORD well another thing i love everybody im black im not a racist i hope u dont think that ok little buddy thanks 4 writeing me back 1 love peace/10supermans

[RISEUPOLORD]

@10supermans God be with you my friend.

[5674trackrunner]

@10supermans LOL

[redhairedMadao13]

@RISEUPOLORD I didn't think that I would find another guy as well informed as me about Bruce Lee.. Nice to meet ya man :P

[dinotim88]

@RISEUPOLORD No, the majority of the Chinese schools rejected him because he has White students. According to the old masters, martial arts should be passed down to Chinese only.

[Mikelovision]

@dinotim88 he was talking about before Bruce Lee had his own school.

[rockos414]

bruce lee was atheist?

[tougeRSTi]

I'm glad you uploaded these footage of Bruce Lee. I'm just learning more and more new things about Lee. I just recently seen Ip Man 1, 2, and 3. Found out that Lee was trained under Ip Chun, master of Wing Chun.

[666Jackdevil666]

@tougeRSTi

There is only ip man 1 and 2 ......... and Ip man - The legend is born

Where did the Ip man 3 come from?

[tougeRSTi]

@666Jackdevil666

I was in China Town in Chicago, IL and I just HAD to stop at the video store and Ip Man 3 was the first thing I saw. They have 2 versions with different covers, one is in only Chinese and the other version has English subs.

[rocasopa42]

Bruce Lee sucks :0!!!!!!!!! He was too good for tournaments. Onlyfor show. Limiting his abilites? whats wrong? wasnt the king of fighting a fast learner... Bruce Lee physique was beyond imaginable that he could've "break" other competitors???

[peacemaker083]

This is a real treasure. I love Bruce. I'm 27 and grew up watching him. I really want to find the video of him fighting Muhammad Ali. Ali didn't get a single hit on him. I am wondering if that's part of a documentary and also this video. Can it be bought on dvd? Or downloaded?

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@peacemaker083 It doesn't exist because it never happened. Kinda like bearded idiots rising from the dead and such like.

[peacemaker083]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Awww, someone needs a hug.

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@peacemaker083 Yes, but not from you. Thanks all the same. ;-)

[mj19580]

@peacemaker083 what a shit comeback, you horse manure stinky son of a bitch

[peacemaker083]

@mj19580 Troll harder

[universetechnique]

[nashorie]

[nashorie]

i have been waiting to hear bruce say he studied under yip man and learnt the wing chun system

[jacksblack1]

@nashorie He says it at 5:02  did you hear it. He spells it

[Bababa77ify]

Hey Leute, Ich hab da eine Frage. Könnt ihr mir sagen, was Bruce Lee in 6.23-6.28 sagt? Ich wird gefragt, was seine Hobbys sind, aber das letztere kann ich nicht verstehen, zu undeutlich,Weis das, vl. jemand? Danke(=)

Hey, Guys. I have a question. Can somebody tell me, what bruce lee says in 6.23-6.28?? cannot understand it. Thank you:D

[patatje]

Hey, Guys. I have a question. Can somebody tell me, what bruce lee says in 6.23-6.28?? Thank you:D

[dwain1987]

an atheist, even more respect for this guy, he knew about life.

[autohckr]

Wow, I learned something new about Bruce. He was an atheist. I knew he was a philosopher but he would talk about god and the devil changing places at lightning speed when discussing yin yang, and to think, I was there at this tourney and later again in '67.

[ghosthunter7393]

brucekirk89-possibly jesse glover-bruce lee's 1st african american student.

[brucekirk89]

I met a 65 year old black guy in one of my classes in Seattle,he told me he learned from Bruce personally there on the James hill in Seattle???

[ComicBookGo]

@brucekirk89 Sounds like Jesse Glover. He's one of Bruce's main students, he witnessed the battle between Bruce and Wong Man Jak. If that guy is Glover, you should ask about the fight and get back to us!! :)

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@ComicBookGo Actually, Jesse didn't witness it at all. Even though he was Bruce's first student, he was with him during the Seatle period, whereas the Wong Jak Man fight was later, during the Oakland period. Only a pregnant (with Brandon) Linda Lee and the late James Lee were present from Bruce's camp as well as several friends of Wong Jak Man.

[ComicBookGo]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Thanx for the correction friend. Now I know. Is Wong Jak Man still around to relay to us that fight for a final confession of how it all went down? I'd love for Linda Lee Cadwell to tell us more about all of Lee's combat situations, as I know they are multiple. "In the Summer of 64 in HongKong two thugs stalked Lee at the Kowloon Star Ferry, Lee dispatched one w/a spinning kick to the shin frightening the other to retreat"

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@ComicBookGo I don't know if he's still alive now, but there are many accounts on the internet that claim his version of the fight was different from Lee's. Apparently he said that it was a draw and that he could have beaten Bruce if he wanted, but was afraid of seriously hurting him and then getting in trouble with the law! He made out that the fight lasted 20 minutes, not just a couple and that was due to him defending all Bruce's attacks until Bruce got so winded that they agreed to stop.

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@JesusCockInAllahAss While I doubt this is true and it should be noted that apart from one Chinatown newspaper printing Wong's version soon after the fight, which got Bruce furious and caused him to go to the newspaper office and force them to print a retraction, nobody challenged Bruce's version openly while he was still alive.

However, while the Lee camp say the fight took place as a result of the Chinese not wanting 'westerners' to be taught, Wong actually taught westerners.

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@JesusCockInAllahAss So, this part is probably propaganda by the Bruce brigade to make out he was the good guy and keep his legend unspoiled. Wong claimed that he'd been in the audience at some demonstration Bruce had put on where he [Bruce] had claimed he could beat any man in San Francisco and Wong had seen this as a challenge. Bruce was known to be very arrogant, so I believe that Wong was probably telling the truth in this respect, but who really knows? We weren't there! :-)

[ComicBookGo]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Right, I recall that response of Wong Jak Man, I would like to see if he is able to repeat it though. I forget the Malaysian masters name, but India seems to popularly believe one Malaysian (tho I cant recall his name he's well known in MA circle) denied that he ever fought Lee, a man he respected, but then decades later he finally confessed that he and Lee did bout in a serious match of respect and honor to see who is best. He wrote a book including this account

[peacemaker083]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Bruce whipped his butt and with a name like yours I don't think you're in any position to speak on truth. Not that I believe in Allah, cause I don't. But it just shows your immaturity.

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@peacemaker083 You weren't there, so you do not know conclusively. I believe he won as well, but we do not KNOW. Do you see the difference between belief and knowledge? Wait, of course you don't. Going by your other comment to me, you are obviously a silly Christian... and yet ironically have the audacity to call me immature.

Oh yeah, and another irony is YOUR username. I was discussing in a civil manner with someone else when you turn up and cause trouble with your assholishness.

[peacemaker083]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Nothing you do is civil because from the start you show your true nature with having such an immature id. Looks like someone wasn't hugged enough. Aww, you need a hug baby? Does baby need a diaper change? Waa.

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@peacemaker083 1. YouTube is a place for fun, so yes, my username is immature, but it's also designed to annoy people who are even more immature, i.e. religious types. Relate much?

2. While I concede that I can and have been immature, that does not mean I cannot be civil with people and demonstrably I have been, so you clearly fail there.

3. You are a hypocrite because you are obviously as immature, if not more so, than I am. The difference between us is that I admit to it.

[Blackjesus3]

ur so lucky u got this video

[CoDWaWMapack2]

umm can anyone answer this when he does the two fingerd pushup does he use his thumb

[fuckyoucibaikia]

@CoDWaWMapack2 It's actually 1 thumb and 1 finger push up.

[GetDamage]

wow, he practice for 2 hours everyday. That's discipline.

[Ezol1]

This interview was just amazing! Glad I found it! :D

[gdrocker93]

I'm 5'7 1/2 and 140 lbs. Only difference I aint that shredded lol

[ZTArtist]

5'75 feets = 1,75 cm.

so why everybody think and say that he was 1,71cm tall?

[MJafro]

@ZTArtist No 5'7.5 = 171,45cm and 175cm = 5'9 if you want to translate it to metres 5'7.5 would be 1.7145m you should not put comma characters between centimitres!

[tsi2568]

5 stars of course. Bruce sure was the greatest martial artist ever.

[captaingrumbleweed]

Why do some people insist on telling others their idea of religious "truth"? If your view is true it will ultimately become self-evident.

More to the point, wouldn't it be better if we looked within ourselves for deeper meaning, instead of following millenia old doctrines? Why not just take the time to think about this without any outside influence, instead of being told what you are by a particular system?

Using no way as way doesn't just apply to fighting.

[jukijunk]

@captaingrumbleweed

Bro i defidently agree with u on that. Bruce lees take on martial arts and styles can apply to religion as well. I mean its really pointless arguing about religious views, this truth or that, or whatever. Because every religion has their own doctrines and beliefs and values. Just like what bruce said about styles, whats more important is what it means to be a human being. And how can we all live and grow together and free ourselves without being restricted by limitations.

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@jukijunk Bruce's main philosophy was derived (and perverted) from the works of the utterly brilliant Jiddu Krishnamurti, who had been hailed by the Theosophical Society (think the MMA of religious organisations) as the new incarnation of the Messiah at the turn of the 20th Century. At the age of 34, Krishnamurti broke away from the society that fostered him and from that point on till his death at 90, he basically ripped the intellectual shit out of religion and beliefs of all kinds.

[jjamonit1]

Its a shame he did not believe in the very One who created him...and blessed him with his abilities. You think he(bruce) would acknowledge and praise this fact) yet he Foolishly Chose not to and basically turned his back on the Creator. God is more powerful than Bruce Lee's abilities..and philosophy. God is and Always will be life and love..sad to see Bruce was not in acceptance of that?

[blakeada999]

where is your humility? perhaps he did believe in the one who created him... how can you reasonably expect that your concept of God be his?

[jjamonit1]

My concept...this is how it is..he said he does not believe in God...therefore, lost

[blakeada999]

"How it is", you say? Then you know all there is to know about your creator?

[jjamonit1]

How do you get that from what I wrote? No one will know All of it until it is revealed to them by the Father God once in heaven..read the Word.

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@jjamonit1 And the fact that you do believe in God, without any evidence, shows me that it was not Bruce, but YOU who is lost. You said you believe in Jesus, why not Muhammad or Brahma or Odin or Buddha or Zoroaster? Your belief comes from either your upbringing (i.e. mental conditioning) or because you read something which you thought appealing and stuck to it. Others, with equal belief to yours, think Allah or some pagan god is true. They are as limited and wrong as you are in their beliefs.

[JMACisDOPE]

@JesusCockInAllahAss -well i believe in GOD i believe one exist out there out of all the Gods..Jesus is the most talked about n shit..y is that??

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@JMACisDOPE Because until this century Christianity was the most warlike religion on earth. If you disagreed with the church throughout history then you'd end up chopped into little bitty pieces. Jesus is popular because the people spreading his name did so out of hate, violence, oppression, terror and murder, otherwise you'd probably not have heard of him. Have you heard of Mithra or Apollonius of Tyana? I doubt it, but both sounded veeeery much like Jesus except they came BEFORE him!

[JMACisDOPE]

@JesusCockInAllahAss...so if hes not that important then y is there BC and AD??

jst..how did Jesus outlast all the other prophets??

so i take it you are an atheist?

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@JMACisDOPE 1. I never said he wasn't important, did I?

2. "then y is there BC and AD??" - I already answered that. Christianity has the foothold it has and affects so much of the world because of the violence (not love!) carried out in it's name.

3. "jst..how did Jesus outlast all the other prophets??" - Umm, he hasn't. People still believe in other ones. The Buddha for instance was around about 500 years before Jesus.

4. Yes, I'm an atheist, just like good old Bruce Lee here. ;-)

[JMACisDOPE]

@JesusCockInAllahAss ya jesus has like 2 billion followers to date!

but ahh bruce lee was da shit he whoop anybody his speed is still UNMATCHED..u agree? jet lie aint got nuttin on bruce

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@JMACisDOPE I agree! I also agree that I could be completely wrong about religion as well. I'm not that much of a dick to believe I know everything! :-)

[JMACisDOPE]

@JesusCockInAllahAss haha yup

and datz good at least u admit it..not like all the rest of the arrogent atheist least u honest..but i believe that God exist..imean there has to be..look around u kno

[JayDee98765]

@JMACisDOPE If god exists, why did she make atheists?

[JMACisDOPE]

@JayDee98765 ..he didnt ppl CHOSE not to belive that he exist

[JayDee98765]

@JMACisDOPE But how can people choose when god created them? lol ..

[JMACisDOPE]

@JayDee98765..what are u tryin to say??

[JayDee98765]

@JMACisDOPE Nothin bro, take it easy :)

[JMACisDOPE]

@JayDee98765  lol iight cuzz u too

[JayDee98765]

@JesusCockInAllahAss That name is hilarious.

[JayDee98765]

@JesusCockInAllahAss And also, I have a few of bruces books, which one says hes an atheist? I know he was a philosopher but...

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@JayDee98765 He says it in this video! At 2:56 minutes in...

Alex Ben Block: "You don't have to answer this if you don't want to, what is your religion?"

Bruce Lee: "None whatsoever."

Alex Ben Block: "You believe in God?"

Bruce Lee: "uuuhhhh, to be perfectly frank, I really do not."

[JayDee98765]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Oh!.. I have yet to watch this actual video lol I breath a sigh of relief upon knowing this information about the great Lee. I am an atheist myself, youve made my day sir :D

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@JayDee98765 Ha ha! I'm glad to have helped and as for you being an atheist, I guessed from reading your sarcastic little exchange with JMACisaDope. Word of advice, don't waste your energy. ;-)

[JayDee98765]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Oh come now, you just cant help it sometimes? I'm aware of the complex arguments of dawkins and hitchens but it doesnt hurt to be a little childish on occasion :P But yes, its like talking to a wall. Peace bro :)

[mj19580]

@JesusCockInAllahAss jesus cock in ya dadz ass you son of a bitch

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@mj19580 LOL! Ok. Just as soon as he's finished 'spreading his blessing' all oer your dad first. ;-)

[lzuccari]

you really need to open your mind and stop bealiving church shit, the concept of creation and heaven is no other than the result of human intelligence and superiority complex, and the fear of death. take it or leave it

[jjamonit1]

My mind is open and as is my heart. Jesus Is Christ and Saviour of All..who call on Him and believe He is the Son of God. If you believe this...not..then..Im sorry

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@jjamonit1 If your mind was open then you wouldn't have come to a CLOSED conclusion, would you? 

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@jjamonit1 Why should he praise something obviously false and only believed in by those of low intelligence such as yourself? There is zero evidence for 'A' God, let alone YOUR specific version of him. All you have displayed is unbelievable arrogance that the wonders of life, death and the universe can be reduced and contained within the confines of an evil, silly and contradictory book from 2000 years ago. Thankfully some of us have moved beyond such ridiculous and childish desert myths.

[peacemaker083]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Low intelligence? Again you show your ignorance. Plenty of intelligent people have been a Christian. Bach is one fine example!

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@peacemaker083 Einstein and Jung smoked. Intelligent people can do dumb things. While I am doing it here, I should point out that appealing to authority is not intelligent and neither is being a Christian or calling yourself by any other stupid religious name.

[peacemaker083]

@JesusCockInAllahAss Aww someone needs a hug.

[JesusCockInAllahAss]

@peacemaker083 LOL! You're obsessed with hugging. If I hug you will you leave me alone? :-)

[dongbu0124]

Could you upload the next part of this footage series? I wish I could watch long beach 64 version of One inch punch much better.

[LucasPicturesUK]

Great footage man 5 stars
