1970 Bruce Lee rare footage Jhoon Rhee National Karate Championship 

He did not seek for attention or fame, and always humble with a warm smile on his face.

I miss Bruce so damn much! He died on MY 10th bday (07201973)! Even as a child, I didn't know of his passing at that age until I reached the age of understanding! On the 20th of this month, Bruce would have been DECEASED now for 47 years!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏⚰️😞😭😭😭😭😡😢😥😭

Thank you so much for sharing this video!!! My father was at tournament and I about fell on the floor when I saw him in the video! I remember him talking about the time he met Bruce Lee and Joe Lewis, and I still have the program from the event! This is incredible!

Thanks very much for sharing! It is indeed a rare footage of the one and only Bruce Lee

It's refreshing to see a video that actually delivers. So many times you see other videos purporting to show 'previously unseen', 'rare footage' of Bruce Lee and if you're lucky they just contain a photograph. This one is the real deal for once.

What a Great Momento to have of Bruce. Thanks for Sharing.

love him so much and forever!

Many thanks for sharing this rare video !

Thank you for this collection love you😍😍😍😍😍😍

Wow thank you for showing this footage never before seen.

Thank You for sharing this.

Wow.. Extremely rare! Thanks for sharing!!

And there he stood looking cool, the legend

The man Changed the world . If people was to think the way he did they would realise we are all the same. And realise our cups have been empty for decades...

Thank you Tom! Magical times

Thanks, for this rare video.

Thank you Mr.Bruce Lee for being apart of our lives and we will carry you in our heart until the end of us but you will live in our kids lives and it will go on and yes I’m 53 years of age ,love and miss you Sir.

Wow! I was there!

...saw some key people in the audience. Lee was assisting an injured competitor during time out. Nice touch. Ed Parker seated next to him in sunglasses. Ron van Clief also present. This is nice to see many of the men who influenced us in their prime.

Ooh very nice and cool video. Thank you

Wonder how much ‘rare and unseen’ footage is out there? There seems to be more coming out as years go by...👍🏾

Wow!! Definitely rare!! Thanks for the upload.

HONOUR AND ETERNAL GLORY TO THE GREAT SIFU BRUCE LEE.

My God! This footage is worth millions of dollars!

extremely rare. thanks

Bad as Hell! History! I'm glad someone caught a great time in the past.I got to meet Mr Rhee.R.I.P to him and Bruce Lee.Great to see the Diversity !Martial Arts Community Stil alive and Kicking. RESPECT.

All Brue Rare clips too short displaying this amazeing legend lives one absolutely nostalgic.... m

I was there. 6yrs old but don’t remember Bruce.

So rare amazing Footage

RIP Grandmaster Rhee

Very rare indeed. Thanks

You only see Bruce Lee very briefly. Also if you look closely, Ron Van Cleef was there also.

Yup any vid or pix would be considered treasure by many.. Thanks

Look at Bruce all cool and laid back, that was so nice of him to check on the man who was hurt. At the end he didnt seem like u wanted the camera in his face., or he was signing autographs, it was the face he made on chinese connection and fist of fury.😁😘 Lolol. But it was a nice close up of him when he isnt acting.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😍❤😍❤😍❤😍❤😍

Thank you all for your Like, comments, views and share :)

Thank you

Bruce Lee was too fast. Play it at 10% to see anything! Probably the greatest exponent of MMA ever to walk on earth. RIP Master.

If bruce was still with us hed be the most interviewed person ever and on most talk shows traveling the world maybe promote his movies etc

BRUCE LEE, THE REAL SUPERMAN.

FYI the injured competitor is none other than Mr.Joseph Hayes may he Rest In Peace.

There is no sound my friend in this video can you please fix that problem??!!

My Grandmaster was Duk Sung Don who was allegedly Rhees teacher also. Son told me that Rhee branched off from WTA to make WTF and created the point system for the Olympics. Son didn’t agree with going Olympic because of politics. Cool to see that I have some lineage seen here.

Finally an true new images of Bruce , short but does'nt mutter ... What i think about Bruce on the carpet. In my opinion he would put ko many of them becouse him never fight for fake, he punching and kicking so hard as know well Skip Mulling ....

Thanks for sharing . Rare stuff here !

So cool to see

Jhoon Rhee in Black Belt Magazine ( decades ago) stated that when he taught Bruce Lee his plethora of super kicks , Bruce would come only after all the evening sessions in the Dojo is finished thus they would end up till midnight. Jhoon Rhee is one truly humble and polite who wowed the USA.

Cool ass rare video!!

Very cool!

The TRUE founder of MMA. Jeet Kune do is TKD, Wing Chun, Grappling, Kuk sool won Hapkido, boxing, fencing and street fighting. OSS and respect little Dragon see you when I get there. 🙏🏽🙏🏻😇🐅🐉

Truly rare I believe this was the tournament that influenced Bruce to train his legs more Wing Chun is his foundation style kicks we're not high .He saw Rolly Hawkins demo at that event it changed him a bit Hawkins had beautiful kicks

If you are here for Bruce Lee, go to 1:48 and 5:48

cliff williams from black tiger vs yellow dragon w/tong lung (supposed to be a sequel to way of the dragon)........am i correct insaying he is there kneeling with the trophies?

Fast forward to 5:44 to see Bruce Lee ☯

Very well. Thís Golden age of the martial art in San Francisco. In a epoc Bruce Lee growing in visibility with your colegue

1:47 Bruce Lee on the right side checking on hurt opponent.

would have been interesting to see him participating or training for this type of competition

This is actually a 2 vs 1 match but Bruce lee was too fast until it looks like these two were fighting with each other...

IT'S SAD TO KNOW . A LOT OF THEM IN THIS VIDEO ISN'T HERE WITH US AND THOSE LITTLE BOYS ARE NOW GROWN MEN. THEN ON ONE HAND THIS WAS IN 1970. THE VIETNAM WAR WAS GOING ON..THREE YEARS LATER IT HAPPEN ON JULY 20,1973.

That hurt opponent was none other than joe hayes one of the best fighter in any generation.he is in the black belt magazine hall of fame. AND JOE Hayes was rated in the top five for more than five years. he fought and beat guys like joe Lewis bill wallece ron vanclief mike warren williamoliver and his fight with Toyotaro miyazaki are legendary.

Not Much.....But Absolutely A Great Deal.

He appeared at the end of the footage and was one of guests only.

Bruce: a just good actor, no fighting

Un héros .

My master bruce lee

Fantástico

Heureusement que le karaté à beaucoup évolué avec le temps. La discipline a Bruce Lee était avancé dans l'art du combat

Nice to see a young Michael Warren ...

Jhoon Rhee was a taekwondo person

Three seats to Bruce Lee's right, Daniel K. Pai. This is from the late sixties.

Just compare the people to the ones today

良く!　こんな貴重な映像見つけたな！

The Audio voices are missing.

I heard that in 1972 bruce lee lost a match in a champioship in US against a german fighter, I hope to see the video

*STRIKE FIRST* *STRIKE HARD* *NO MERCY*

Wo findet man ein Video ,.daß Bruce Lee im richtigen Wettkampf zeigt?

Incredible rare as!! Who is the guy bruce is sitting next too?? With glasses

What ever happened to Joohn Ree ? I live in Texas not far from where his school is or was .

Classic

Dont waste your time.Bruce was to fast in this video I saw only his glasses

This was when there was greater unity within the Karate world, to where even Taekwondo was considered what it truly is: KARATE. Korean Karate; but Karate, nevertheless. The old school martial artists realized this. ..

I met Bruce at Rhee's 68 DC Invitationals. Anybody have video of that? Steve E in Md

Devia ter continuado a carreira de dançarino de Tcha tcha tcha.

The guy on right, from 3:00 to 3:06, looks & kicks like Mike Warren. Wish there was more sparring footage of him

It looks like Chuck Norris sitting next to Bruce Lee. Maybe they were talking about Way of the Dragon..?

Ver o Bruce lee lutar de verdade nada ne kkk

And Lee not participating in these touchbutt point fighting tournaments is why people say he wasn't a real fighter. Ignore his ahead of it's time jkd

Had Bruce got his back injury at this point?

That's why Bruce Lee didn't fight because Skipper was there 😎😁.

Top

Very interesting and perhaps a bit weird that Bruce attended this event. Didn't he dislike Karate? Judging by the video clips of him (I realize they are brief) he seemed quite bored.

Bruce Lee ko award ki jarurat nahin hai bahut award hai

i think i saw Jackson 5 in there momentarily

at 3:17 look at the knuckle conditioning on the guys right hand...

Bruce Lee 1:48, 5:43

I'm so sad why he dies so fast

He died cause he had his arm pit glands surgically removed cause he thought sweaty pitts looked bad on film...and it cause what happened to him ...look it up.

李小龙先生永垂不朽

Bruce lee vs top MMA fighter today. Who would or will win?
