I have been watching this video for 12 years now and everytime I see it ...just gives me goosebumps...video is still the same just screen sizes has changed
Got to respect Donnie! It's not easy to maintain such high Physical abilities at late 40s. Most action star and professional athletes are either out of shape or off their peak at this age.
what a cracking vid! with a great tune.so action packed! and entertaining and smoothly pieced together- it seems like every! DY film is in there somewhere. truely fitting trib to The Don.10/10
Zhen Zi Dan is also a great actor and shown his acting skills in Ip Man and its sequel. He's been a perfect Shifu Yip and I could watch those enthralling movies hundreds of times with the same enthusiasm!
I just want to let you know man, Donnie Yen is a massive inspiration for me and sometimes when I'm not feelin' it, I watch this and it just pumps me up so much and gets my drive back. Thanks a lot man.
@LucaLongoTKD agreed, this guys music choice was great. it separated his video from all other donnie yen tribute videos because the other donnie yen tributes have the oddest music for a martial arts video. like seriously who the f* puts trance and dance music on a martial arts video, its kind of insulting.

MunnabhaiBluffmaster Thanks man! I really love this though. Truly inspiring. Still working through my own film career, but Donnie is definately up there in terms of inspiring action stars!
OH yiggy-yiggy-yeah! Now THIS is a Donnie Yen Tribute, baby! I love this song "Diamond Eyes"! Now, every time I hear it I will think of Donnie MuthaFREAKIN' Yen!!! The man is an ULTIMATE MEGA BEAST!
Tracy Bounds , so many of them to choose but my favorites are Legend of the a Fist, Flashpoint and Ip Man 1and 2, I like all the others too but these three are on top of the list for me.
IMO donnie is better than jet li tony jaa and jackie chan. him and bruce lee are top notch as far as quickness, physique, accuracy, and all that good stuff. good vid man
@itzAcutie the difference is that donnie yen is pretty much an MMA fighter. He said the he loves the UFC and called it the most real combat. He also said if he didn't have an injured shoulder he would have considered joining. I think he would have done well, he legitimately is a great fighter.
Donnie Yen and Sonny Chiba, the best martial arts has produced. Sorry Jackie and Jet. And Bruce, thanks for brining it to the US, but it would have happened sooner or later. \

Great video! It is almost perfect! It would be perfect if you have added more grappling movies(BJJ, Wrestling) moves scene from SPL, Flashpoint into your video. Donnie Yen is really a special martial artist because despite being in Asia, he is a MMA and UFC fan, and utilises alot of Grappling in his movies. If you can capture the essence of him doing armbars, rear naked chokes, triangles like those scenes in flashpoint, it would be a perfect video. BJJ is now the most effective martial art.
if you're saying that, you seem to think bruce lee's movies are based in fact, while only fist of fury was based in fact and a bit of embelished legend everything else he wrote himself, yes bruce lee was an amazing fighter in real life, no doubt in that but donnie yen is an equally capable fighter,imitation is how we first learn, that includes you and learning how to speak then you develop your own style, which donnie yen has since the 90's
Not the best music, but the editing was great. I love Yen Tsidan. I think it would be a gorgeous video set to some roaring symphonic music like Holts' Mars, from the planets or something. Really fun to watch this.
I like all the other screen fighters because at least they don't go on some tv show thinking they can imitate bruce lee and his moves and believe he is some real fighter, it's a joke. You ever wondered why Jackie chan or Jet or any other actor doesn't go on tv show and act like donnie does. Because they know are actors. And most of all they don't imitate bruce lee. I used to like donnie when I was younger, his old old movies were great. But now he is just funny to me.
@MobliefighterJC thanks for the compliment, glad you enjoyed it. Donnie is one of the best action stars of current time. It took about a few days to finish and i am pretty pleased with the outcome too, check out my previous Donnie Yen tribute done to Sabotage by Beastie Boys. Peace

he imitates him ONLY when playing a role bruce lee has played and yes tons of them now a days do who grew up watching bruce lee, not to mention musicians, rappers and MMA fighters so imitating one so influential is not so bad "all martial arts begins with the art of imitation" akisame koetsuji sensei
@MunnabhaiBluffmaster Watch UFC 1 -3. Even Donnie Yen mentioned in the making of SPL that he feels that BJJ is the most effective modern martial art. Look up gracie challenge. Donnie Yen has been trying very hard to implement BJJ and MMA moves into his movies, he has mentioned that he is a MMA fan and has great respect for UFC fighters. So i think it would be really good to put more of his MMA fighting style into the video. =)
@SaisenseiHQ Thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed it. It took about 3/4 days to actually finish off and i have to say im pretty pleased with it too.
@DanKaz92 its from Ip Man 2, it's not in the movie but was included in the trailer - why they never showed it in the actual movie beats the hell out of me asits such an awesome combo
Donnie yen, badass kicks, badass punch, slam the shit out ppls. Overall he fcken awsome. forreals i have never enjoy seen some punch and kick the donnie, i do like jet li too but for some reason the way donnie punches is sooo..idk i can't explain it
and just for clarification, when donnie yen isnt playing a bruce lee character where do you see bruce lee imitation? the fact he kicks and punches? truth be told bruce lee was imitating the grandfather of mixed martial arts in enter the dragon
@MunnabhaiBluffmaster such as shame, oh well, ip man 1 and 2 still go down as 2 of my all time favoroute martial art movies because of the fight scenes and semi true story
@PTigris7 thanks for the comment, but as for BJJ - every martial art is as effective as the person who is using it. There is no such thing as a style better than the other.
I know Samo is not some great fighter, because he is also a screen fighter and he has fatness lol. But I have heard that Samo had fights in his school. And he and Jackie chan followed the same master, with Samo being the senior pupil. We all know how brilliant Jackie chan is, so that says something. What has Donnie done to show me anything. Apart from getting lucky and meeting a film director that gave him a shot at being a movie star.
@clawrence14000 maybe due to limited creative control that martial arts stars get in Hollywood and typecasting, why do you think Jackie Chan rarely makes films in West and has recently moved back to China/HK for movies?
@CrazyyBodyguard but considering his earlyobscurity to where he is now, he's getting the recognition he deserves, hes also the highest paid HK actor at the moment
@davidxuling thanks, wow now it's 56 comments and 55 thumbs up and 0 thumbs down, must have got the hater repellent on this video lol anyways glad to know you've enjoyed my vid and makes me happy for the positive feedback
