Mr_Pitbull Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 Imagine the power and strength of Bruce Lee for trials riding, I was reading an internet article about him and how he trained it purely facinated me, this is what i found: Lee's feats of strength are the stuff of legend; from performing push-ups - on one hand! - or thumbs only pushups, to supporting a 125-pound barbell at arms length in front of him (with elbows locked) for several seconds, or sending individuals (who outweighed him by as much as 100 pounds in some instances) flying through the air and landing some 15 feet away as a result of a punch that Lee delivered from only one-inch away, the power that Bruce Lee could generate -- at a mere bodyweight of 135 pounds -- is absolutely frightening. Not to mention some of his other nifty little habits like thrusting his fingers through full cans of Coca-Cola and sending 300 pound heavy bags slapping against the ceiling with a simple side kick. Also standing infront of a person (static) and perfoming a backflip over the person. (Y) Im sure most of you will realize how much power and strength this guy had, one of his punches is like being hit full on by a car. He died from a headache tablet as his body all his life was so pure and not used to chemicals, except Gel to help him train. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

totaltrials Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 I thought he died from mysterious circumstances which i always thought meant they didnt have a clue. He is a monster, he must have been something special indeed, his films are awsome too. Phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 I thought he got kicked in the stomach while training and it ruptured somthing, he didnt get it looked at and died because of it? and yes, with his kind of physique he could have been awesome at trials!!

BananaLlama Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Argh, he had a hypersensisitivity to an ingredient in a common headache tablet. I hate people who talk bullshit, his body wasn't used to chemicals, that'd only make it more effective. Basically he had an extremely serious allergic reaction to something as common as paracetamol, he was just so fit he'd never had to use it before nor was he tested for it because it is so rare.

BananaLlama Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Wasnt there a programme about how he died the other week, it had his wife on it? Yes on Channel 5, they did a Bruce Lee weekend, with Big Boss, Enter The Dragon and The Way of the Dragon I believe, with the documentary and the lost interview. It's been on a few times now, but still interesting to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhenoVenom Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 Not only did he kick and hit hard, but so amazingly fast. I don't remember what the movie was, but there's a scene where he trains kicking in front of a mirror... those kick are so fast, wouldn't have a chance of trying to block it... and he had to slow down he's moves so the cameras could get them :S RIP Bruce Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
