I believe he did a few.

Jack was the opposite of most people: The older he got, the stronger he got.

I love Bruce Lee, but, as usual, as time goes on, the tales surround him grow taller and taller. The fact is that Jack Lalanne was a million times more physically fit than Bruce Lee. Jack was much stronger than Bruce, and he had a ton more endurance. And Jack PROVED his fitness by all the crazy things he did. My college professor witnessed Jack towing those rowboats, in Long Beach Harbor, at 70-years of age. He said it was the most incredible thing he's ever seen a human being do.

Bruce Lee has become a fantasy figure surrounded by so many lies and myths, that it's hard to believe anything about the poor guy is true.

Jack wasn't doing pushups. When you do pushups, your arms are directly under you. Here, they're outstretched, which is considerably more difficult. The fact that he was doing them with one hand, is nothing short of insane. Very few people can do that.

As for Bruce Lee's two finger pushups, my fat old karate teacher could do those.

it was one finger one thumb, and in terms of overall strength, the regular Lalanne push up is about as difficult, but the one arm version is another level. Lee's is impressive, but not the most effective exercise. other than the necessary tendon strength in the hands and fingers, it's not much harder than a regular one arm push up, and you can get more effective finger strength training doing L sits and/or handstands on fingertips, since that hits all of the fingers.
