Did You Know?
| Trivia | Jackie Chan doubled for Chikara Hashimoto for the scene where Chen kicks him out of the window. He took the kick and flew several feet. Bruce Lee immediately checked to see if he was okay. Chan played a guard Lee kills in Enter the Dragon (1973). See more » |
| Goofs | When Bruce is spinning the two Bushido students in the Bushido school, they are clearly two lightweight dummies. See more » |
