Jet Li Explains the Secret of Self Defense | Late Night with Conan O’Brien 

He's not dead . . .

@@chefdean7257 but he ain’t acting anymore

@@chefdean7257 Not dead but Jet li did step away due to sickness and wanting to raise his kids.

FACTS

He's aged much due to sickness, sigh.

Don't forget donieyuen

Me too

Without out Bruce Lee We won't have jet li, Jackie or Donnie.

I'm in there bro 🖐️

Rubbish. ​@@Tony-rw1yj

Yep, one of my childhood heroes.😊

Yeah man so trueeee

Very true I use to admire this guy

This man is legend here on our island of Barbados 🤸

Got got that right😅

It is time to repent! It is time to BORN AGAIN! It is time to reject all sins! it is time to pick up your cross and follow the one who redeems your soul. This world serves BAAL, why you want to do the same? Are your eyes still blind, that you see not, all the idols of yours are showing off freemasonry hand signs?, neither do you see the clear signs of being inverted? Publicly known as being trans. GOD - the creator exist and god of this world exist also. One redeems, the other deceives. Between these 2 a choosing is to make, WHOM SHALL WE SERVE? Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. To the lgbtq++++: the lgbtq++ club/cult became to be, because of the masons depopulation agendas. search about them. Judge based on knowledge not based on feelings. feelings lie, humans understandings are false. opinions useless. TRUTH alone is what always stays mattering.

Same here brother

once upon a time in China?

Jackie Chan is a comedian fighter , jet Li reminds me of the Legend Bruce Lee more than Jackie Chan

RIP jet li, i loved him!

@@bobbymaldini7653 he's not die lmao

@nightraven6303 I mean in his movies Jet Li is always serious character in his movies that's my point, Fearless is one of my favorite movies of all time

@nightraven6303 yes i watched all his movies or most of them

❤

He has the cutest happiest smile!

He smiles a loooot in his "non american" movies 😉

very surprised he is really fun in the interview and so serious in his movies...really miss him ...loved kiss of the dragon scenes

Greatest movie martial artist maybe. The greatest martial artists earn their respect in real competition, not against stunt doubles.

@@Travvv94 which Jet Li also did, he was a champion before he was in film

​@@Ethan-wr2osJet Li was a champion in demonstration tournaments, but not in fighting. In real life he also did not fight against anyone, recognized by himself

@@Daniel_R_ nevertheless he still proved himself in real competition and against adults at that. He does spar with people (he's mentioned sparring partners) but no his competitions were not sparring. But that doesn't take away from the purity of his martial arts and just the vast amount of weapon knowledge he has, I've seen that guy fight with more weapons than anyone. He still came from a background of purely martial arts and the most intense training

i am 32 and i was growing up with jet lee and jackie :D strange.

Hes alive and well not dead

@@anthonynoll2972 I know, that's why I said "long live".

ru-vid.comcyagnrlgv1Q?si=_T8CI7sRD7ndJ5_H

It's Jet Li😂

You spelled wrongly his last name. His last name is Li not Lee. Dumbnut

Magic show

hes still alive

Also...they're all communist Chinese spies. Their names are on lists of financial scams to benefit china/Xi. Sadly, so does Michael Yeoh.

And what happened to Bruce Lee

Do you mean actors

@@RacerX1971 Bruce Lee died young. Jackie Chan said he always admired Bruce Lee as his senior

@@zeeone4492 they're actors in the movie but they're called martial artist in real life because they really master of martial art.. Aka they're the real Master in Kung-fu/wushu/taichi,so not just pretend to be one

that and The Enforcer are my favorite Jet Li movies

Agreed. Re-watched it several times. Still in awe. Too bad, we might never see that kind of jet li ever again.

Unleashed may 13, 2005

Indeed it is!

Why you guys talk about him Like he died, he Just stopped doing movies

​​@@alladeenmdfkr2255bro I also thought he died the way they said it 😢

🤣exactly

Ong bro

Or dancing a Techno Rave party dance

😂😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂😂😂

Jackie Chan did it too

lol I play badminton. I cant believe Jet said this. Good advice :)

Jay Leno would disagree. 😆

Hello 👋🏻 how are you doing,hope you are having a wonderful day?

ru-vid.comcyagnrlgv1Q?si=_T8CI7sRD7ndJ5_H

He doesn’t top Johnny but he was the last of the good ones.

Hello 👋🏻 how are you doing,hope you are having a wonderful day?

Same here mate

What movie?

What movie?

@@marklouisepascua Unleashed

they all were decades to early, thankfully its changed now and Asians can also get an Oscar

Jet Lee was passing away right?

He is alive@@SalamAkbar-w1x

@@SalamAkbar-w1x fake news lol

@@SalamAkbar-w1xhe turn into monk

@@SalamAkbar-w1x He's not passing away, he just stepped away from the film industry. He has been battling illness but he's not dying

Jackie Chan is a performer at heart who happens to do martial arts part of his training(+Singing, choreography, comedy, drama, theater), Jet Li is a fully fledged martial artist who got into movies

he got hypothyroidism just like me. I lift weights and run in my 20's but after getting this sickness, I feel like my energy has been sapped. I still run and go to the gym, but I get fatigued easily.

Wait a couple more years

@@Kopie0830 Me too, get on Levothyroxine, your Dr. will prescribe.That is the hormone your thyroid releases

​@Kopie0830 go to Dr Berg Y/T there is a lot of safe ways to mange ur 'ism , get hormone test as I'd this condition & minimal adjustments can safely reduce symptoms..

my fav movie of his

Kiss of the Dragon and Legend are his two best movies hands down.

so many hits Jet has, once upon A Time in China series, New legend of Shaolin, MY fav US Film was Kiss of The Dragon, My Father is Hero, , also Hero a great film, so so many, Black Mask, so so fast, US filmmaker couldn't catch his speed on film except for Kiss of tHE dRAGon which I believe were European filmmaker, Fearless as well was great, Tai Chi master ,, so so many hits

@@E24G no they STILL couldn't keep up with him on Kiss of the Dragon lol him and the shorter of those two blonde guys were fighting so fast the camera just wasn't keeping up

@@Ethan-wr2os you're right.. ohh what is his name the small blonde dude, he was I think in District B13 , JET LI true legend!!

prove it!

In a way, he kills you with his smile

@@hamidomrani3960 Yeah because after a smile like that how could you want to fight him lol

Haha true👍

Killer's smile 😂😂😂

Don't forget Samo Young

True, but atleast we still have Donnie Yen

Don't forget Jackie Wu Jing and Iko Uwais

Don't forget Chow Yun fat

Tony Ja

They are creation of that time,and time pass by.Golden age past.

Fearless is very underrated IMO . Purfect movie of true life character

Twin Warriors.... deep message behind this movie

@@TheFelonizedkriminal He was actually filming for Fearless when he took this interview, if you look at his hair the front half is shaved under that cap he's wearing. So this is right after Unleashed has come out and he's begun filming for Fearless here, or at least got the haircut necessary for the role

In Fearless he is a savage

Then try the one jet li multivarse

This was almost 20 years ago. Original Air Date 05/06/05. Hope he is doing better, last I heard not so much

Those two are comedians in their own way.

@@KeithHiew Jackie Chan maybe but I never saw Jet Li as a comedian in any sense lol

Both of them have great personality and sense of humour. You can see that even when they are not speaking their native tongue, their Chinese interviews are fantastic to watch.

@@Ethan-wr2oshis early movies had lots of comedy elements, maybe a cultural element if you don’t appreciate

@@leedonghae435 I know but referring to Jet Li as a comedian isn't really a good title either, that's what I am saying 😅 he is a martial artist. Jackie Chan you could even say is naturally more of a comedian considering he grew up in Beijing Opera, but not Jet Li.

I'm kinda surprised that he & Conan the same age and born only 8 days apart 😅

This was 18 years ago?

Pretty sure this is the interview at the time of his movie Unleashed going to theaters. Which was 2005.... Conan stopped production in 2009 and had absolutely nothing to do with the writers strike of 2023..

@@Dassick89 correct. But shows in general aren’t being produced because of what was happening. Just something I miss watching at night. Cheers!

Jet Li has recovered from his illness too which is GREAT news

Right he could be Steven Seagal lol

Speaking of non-disrespectful hosts (*cough*Kimmel*cough*), Jonathan Ross is another one, probably due to the fact that he is a big fan of the genre.

​@@williamnunn8847Really? Damn, Yeah!

Jackie Chan ain't that humble, Bruh. He is more of an asshole than anything. But being such a high public figure in China he kinda must conceal who he really is. And yeah maybe today he is humble, but back then he was a constant drunk and whore fucker and beat his son. Dunno if that translates as being humble. But like I said, he might have learned his lesson it seems.

Yeah in the description they put (Original Air Date: 5/6/05), so indeed this was a little over 18 years ago

Now. It makes sense.

​@@Lakeone_Unbelievable. Wow!!! Great video quality for 2005

Hello 👋🏻 how are you doing,hope you are having a wonderful day?

My intro to Jet Li was LW4 as well and I found him terrifying. Having Jet Li in it was the best way to end the franchise.

@@marisgoldenhour6212 They are working on a fifth installment! 😃

@@zdp85magic They gotten too old for this shit.

ru-vid.comcyagnrlgv1Q?si=_T8CI7sRD7ndJ5_H

That’s when I first saw him, too. I was like uh oh, we’re gonna be seeing more of this cat someday.

How is he today?

@@scpk2246 some report him as alive and well. He has a condition known as hyperthyroidism which has limited him to not taking the more physically demanding roles as of late. He's also 60 years old. Might be time to ease up a bit. Then again, I don't know. He's a physical wonder. I'm 62 and am not lol! Arthritis becomes an issue in your 60s sometimes. At least with me. I didn't see it coming. Don't know what effects hyperthyroidism has on a 60+ year old body as in Mr. Li's situation.

@@primusmoss-ln6jcoh, that's nice - jet li is just a cool guy - and missed by many

@@scpk2246 oh yeah! I totally agree with you! He's one of my favorite all time Martial Artists! He's exciting to watch onscreen!

He’s telling us To 1. Give a soft appearance 2. Act like you’re disoriented 3. BUT, be about that action

best movie.. black mask was good too

I know that movie like the palm of my hand couldn't get enough of it

good story 🤣

Epic and underrated! I liked The One, too

@kozigreek Man, totally forgot about The One

He will have just started filming for Fearless when this interview happened, the front half of his head is shaved under that cap, which is probably also why he wore a cap for the interview lol

I like the movie when he wears that collar around his neck and acts like a dog

Me too

Mulan (Disney Movie 2020)

Truly a masterpiece

Seriously. This movie made me a fan. After watching Fist of Legend, I had to go through Jet Li's back catalog and watch all his older movies!

Wholesome is a descriptor of food.

phew

... Tai Chi Master.

Kiss of the Dragon is overlooked. Bridget Fonda is awesome in that film as well.

@@wvusmc I loved Kiss of the Dragon, maybe my favorite English-speaking role of his

Hero is Great

That would be really cool

Nope no Hollywood bs. Hollywood turns these legends into lesser versions of themselves

@@Lilianjade Donnie Yen actually pitched an idea to Jackie Chan to make their own Asian version of the Expendables, and Jackie said he would do it only if Jet Li agreed to be a part of it. I don't think it will happen now but could you imagine?

​@@Ethan-wr2osseems like it is not going to happen, is it? or is it in the making?

@@sky23papa naw it was just a pipe dream Donnie Yen pitched to Jackie Chan so nothing has come of it beyond a conversation between them. I don't think it will, mostly due to Jet Li stepping away from cinema

i had a sudden urge to shave my hair bald and go live in some cold mountain

Get your inflatable flailing arm tube man at Inflatable flailing arm tube man and tube man emporium

wait..what!!??

this was filmed in 2005, I thought this was 2023 also~

Conan looks exactly the same here and now though

He has now aged 2024

He is really ill right now, he has some sort of thyroid disorder if I'm correct.

​@@ryr635r u sure?

@@suhtangwong This isn't new news. I myself was very worried for Jet Li because he disappeared from the lime light. It was already reported he had this condition almost a decade ago when I did some digging. You don't know? Correction: I found this out over a decade ago, so he has been sick for quite some time. His current condition I wouldn't know about.

He directed a movie once and the experience made him swear to never direct another movie so I am not sure that will happen lol

​@@suhtangwongYeah, it is true.
