Kung Fu (1972) Part 3

The pilot movie for the Emmy-nominated series "Kung Fu" starring David Carradine. He is a man of peace in a violent land. He is Kwai Chang Caine, schooled in the spirit-mind-body ways of the Shaolin priesthood by the blind, avuncular Master Po and the stern yet loving master Kan. Caine speaks softly but hits hard. He lives humbly yet knows great contentment. He is the Old West's most unusual hero. But hero is not a word Caine would use. He would simply say, "I am a man."

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. -- Romans 1:22-25

@kyle2point By "more or less the same thing" do you mean they were big lizards? The Chinese and the Europeans both encountered these, either in their native lands, or on the silk road.

Dare I ask where the bones are for these dragons? ;)

And actually, the dragons are very different. Look at the limbs on a typical Chinese dragon characture, they are nothing like European dragons of old (ala St. George).

You are the new student, come closer!

[kyle2point]

they speak of dragons as if they are just like any creature, how could one learn the movement of a mythical creature? it's interesting to know that the concept of dragons originated in both europe and asia independently and there both more or less the same thing, i wonder if they really existed?

at 7:50 is the legendary Grand Master Ark Yuey Wong! One of the first, if not the first Kung Fu Masters to open his doors to non-chinese students. He was the Grand Master of the style I study, Sil Lum Ng Ga Kuen Kung Fu, also known as 5 families or Shaolin Five Animals. Truly a legend, anyone into Kung Fu in the American continent owes a debt to that man, thank you Sigung.
