Bruce Lee: The way of stopping the fist
Bruce Lee is “the master of Kung Fu.” Lee Jun Fan, famously known as Bruce Lee, was a very popular actor who starred in many famous motion pictures. Throughout his life, he studied many different types of fighting styles. He wanted to learn how to win any battle, therefore the best way to do that, is to expect and know all the punches, kicks, and whatever else that might be thrown his way. With all of his experience, he started fighting unconventionally. Bruce Lee created his own fighting style, the only Non-Classical Kung Fu there is, Jeet Kune Do.
Jeet Kune Do roughly translated means, “The way to stop (or intercept) the fist.” This style was depicted in all of his major films (Game of Death, 1978; Enter the Dragon, 1973; Tand shan da xiong, 1971; and more). This style has grown increasingly popular, and currently there are schools around the world that teach this fighting style.
Bruce Lee died July 20th, 1973. This was only three weeks before the movie, Enter the Dragon was released on the “big screen.” One day on the set, he finished some scenes, and started complaining of a headache. So he decided to take some headache medicine and take a nap. Lee never woke up after that. He died of brain swelling, or Cerebral Edema.
Though Bruce Lee has been dead for many years, his fighting style and movies still live on. His movies are nearly legendary, if talking about Kung Fu movies. RIP Lee Fun Fan
