Later on, I did train with someone well over 6ft, and his kicks scared the crap out of me, so much, I was too afraid to hold the focus mitt.

After all I think self defence styles are constantly evolving and by reviewing each others work in a more constructive fashion would help everyone out. Anyway, love your videos keep up the great work! Peace from the UK.

I wish to say two comments. Firstly had Bruce Lee lived long enough to incorporate those magnificent 3 fight scenes in to a movie & I mean a movie that he would be proud of I feel this could have been one of his best ever films. The film the game of death had it's moments,highs & lows apart from those 3 fights when Bruce Lee was in film for around 15 minutes in the theatrical release version. Secondly this memorable fight was very different from this version. I think the talking part between the two didn't really fit in & wasn't necessary as for the scene with the light & how it affected Kareem I didn't mind that unfortunately not shown in the movie. I have the DVD with extras & special features showing the full fight also between Kareem & 2 other martial artists.
