A highly detailed system of movement and training already existed (and has for hundreds, if not thousands of years) in China. Jackie Chan came up in the existing system. Parkour is just a copy of a subset of Chinese Acrobatics.

They will surely be another to raise the bar. The problem is that Jackie raised it so high it's going to take almost a life time to run into someone as talented, creative, athletic and funny as he is. Oh... and as lucky as he is too! There's been quite a few scenes that could of EASILY killed him. It's almost like DEATH - 'Hi Jackie! Catch you later!'. Course Jackie is like - 'Of course, be seeing you soon with my next brush with yea!'. I got to admit, either death doesn't scare him or he's just so positive that he's not going to die that death just goes meh... got to respect the guy, where like friends after so many close calls. Of course death is eventually going to cash in but Jackie is definitely going to make him wait. World loves watching Jackie act and he seems to feed off of that very attention so the world is constantly getting his best. The best ending I'm hoping for is he dies of old age after tempting death so many times! :) He's definitely one in a billion in talent and just flat out luck!

According to Jackie (and he was backed up by several people) he looked at what the director wanted and then went ahead and did all while explaining the the moves. The director loved it, but the next day when the insurance people heard what was planned, they nixed it immediately since they thought it was way too dangerous.

@RazorEdge2006 3 года назад

@@chrism45 Well, gymnastics had been around for centuries, and parkour has roots in gymnastics. I'd classify Lloyd, Chaplin and Keaton as gymnasts, rather than parkour free-runners. It was Jackie Chan who was largely responsible for the evolution from gymnastics to parkour. Chan got much of his early gymnastic skills from the Peking Opera School, where he spent much of his youth, along with Sammo Hung and Yuen Baio. Speaking of Yuen Baio, he's very underrated. I remember him doing some parkour-like stunts similar to Jackie Chan, yet he rarely gets much credit. Probably because his career didn't really take off much compared to Jackie and Sammo. Either way, Chan was the biggest influence on parkour, which was clearly based on what Jackie Chan was doing.

@planetdisco4821 3 года назад

So glad you mentioned the camera angles and editing of HK vs Us movies. Mr Chan himself has mentioned that he doesn't like the jump cuts and shaky camera work of Hollywood as he regards it as a bit of a cop out. If you look at his classic movies he always sets up the camera angles so that you see the whole of the fight choreography etc. Not to mention the meticulous planning that's involved. As far as I know he still holds the record for the number of takes for one scene, which from memory is flipping a piece of gum off a wall and into his mouth in "The Armour of God" he also broke his spine in that movie. His spine! The man is a legend and I once bumped into him on the street when he was filming that bridge scene in Melbourne. He was really nice! Major Chan Fan here lol...

Action movie making in Hong Kong way back in the 70s to the 90's relied very much on genuine authenticity, guts and a fair modicum of good fortune on the part of the performers. The movie studios there did not have the budget nor the expertise to match the Western/Hollywood productions, so all they could do was to lay everything on the line scene after scene after scene. Now of course there were safety wires because Jackie Chan was the star, and you cannot have him badly injured. However, he is very much his own stunt man, and all the blows to the head were real.

@danielhicks4826 3 года назад

Its an insane special era and will probably never see the likes of it again, Chan is objectively something insanely special and talented and skill, I mean he's not just the best stunt man maybe ever he's simultaneously the best choreographer arguably in all of cinema history as well. Side note check out his good friend and fellow class mate at Chinese opera/martial arts etc. school Yuen Biao, and frequent co star, he's great all around to but might be the most acrobatic technical actor in martial arts movie history! Chan himself says Biao was a total natural by like age 6 then just got better and better. But wow Chan seriously nothing like him.

@OmarZaki 3 года назад

@jamesloll4601 3 года назад

Jackie mastered the most important aspect of taking the impact from a long jump. You lock you legs they are going to break but if you hit the ground without trying as hard as you can to stand, your going to completely collapse. He always kept his knees slightly bend but the moment he felt his feet touch? More like guessed his feet touch he went into power stand mode. Too early, legs straighten and lock... broken leg or two. Too late? You are going to pick yourself up hopefully after you power slam your entire body into the ground. Anyone who watches Jackie can easily tell he has some insane reflexes given the very speed he moves.

The thing about Jackie landing all his parkour stunts with a squats with such ease is that he was a martial artist before doing the stunts on film Omar.

@OmarZaki 4 года назад

Thanks for checking out the video! I’m sure that definitely helps him, but that’s not all there is to it. He obviously does these types of stunts all the time and probably trained his body for them specifically and the best way to train your body to be strong enough to take big drops like that is to do it a lot at different levels. (3ft drops, 5ft drops, 10ft drops, etc). Your body gets good at specific exercises by doing them over and over. Like I said, Martial arts definitely helped strengthen his muscles but doing these types of stunts/training also does as well.

@juansconsuegra 4 года назад

Omar Zaki I know bro, remember I’m a martial artists as well and when I did at least 2 type of parkour tricks once I didn’t get injured because of my martial arts background lol. Anyways keep it up and can’t wait to see more of your reaction videos soon😁😁

@KarlHeinzofWpg 3 года назад

I was such a Jackie Chan nerd/fan that I made a 3 hour long VHS tape in the 80's with all the stunts I could find (so I had to rent each movie, borrow another VCR, copy the tape, yadda yadda yadda). Some of the best stunts were in Police Story. You showed some of them, but the 3 cars careening out of control down the hillside village with all the stunt guys jumping off the roofs is a classic scene. And when he pushes the baby carriage and then jumps out of the path of car which is trying to kill him (it almost did), it was unforgettable. Oh, and when the two stunt guys crash head first through the top window of the double decker bus onto concrete. Hello union rep?! Anyway, nice reaction. I'd LOVE to see Jackie react to parkour!!

@pirobot668beta 3 года назад

Jackie's team blocks out the all action for a stunt and figure out where the hands, feet and body of the actors make contact with props and surfaces. Those contact areas are first cleaned, painted to look like they are still grimy, then treated to make them either slick or sticky, depending on the action required. Nail a landing on a narrow log? Spirit-gum! Tacky surface for a no-slip landing, but easy to pull away. Slide down a ladder? Leather pads concealed in the palms. You can slide easily without burning your hands, but a tight grip will slow you down. Nothing left to chance! Think of Circus Performers in the Western World...amazing stunts, performed nightly.

@corrosivecabal 2 года назад

2:28 he originally fell from the tree and split his head open. This was the first time he cut his hair short for a movie, he never did short hair again. And as of today is still invincible. Also, I 100% agree with what you say about action/fight scenes needing to be zero or at least very few cuts to keep the intensity up. I know there's only so many Jackie Chans, only so many stunt performers that also act, and only so many trained fighters who also act, but come on, just a little extra time and effort in a scene makes a big difference.

@@FolacticsFootball "Trepanning", or drilling a hole in the skull, is a pretty ancient human pseudo-medical practice. It was thought to be an effective treatment for many ailments because it supposedly released evil spirits from inside the skull.

@BenTan89 3 года назад

The reason they (Jackie and his crew) didn't do rehearsals is because they have 1 take most of the time because film was incredibly expensive back in the day in HK. Also for places where they book to have the stunts filmed are often only booked for a few hours tops before business for the property has to resume - thus, no time to set up elaborate strings and safety net setups. You arrive, you do your shit and you get lost. That was how it's done back in the day. Fun fact; In movies featuring both Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung, they will often troll Jackie by intentionally screwing up a scene so that Jackie has to do the stunt again.

Back in the 90's action movies were all about getting a "name" attached so camera work had to change to hide the fact that most of them couldn't actually do any of the crazy shit their character did, so we got these cutcutcutcutcut fight scenes with "dynamic" camera movement (fight goes one way, camera rolls the other). Jackie's big thing is to get really good fighters and choreographers and pull the camera back so you can see the talent on display. I'm very much a fan of Jackie Chan and the biggest most regular fight I have on sets with Directors is trying to get them to pull the camera back to show the fight scene I spent weeks choreographing instead of zooming in to be "more involving".
