As the son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee, Brandon Lee had a lot to live up to. Just as the handsome young actor was carving his own path in Hollywood, tragedy struck.
Isn't it enought to say that Hollyweird hated talented people... it could have happened to many of those sloppy wealthy actors at the time just why brandon lee? His death will never sit right with me.
Wife Linda Lee once said “People always talked about how Bruce Lee died but they forgotten how he lived life.” Maybe we all should learn from Bruce and Brandon to live life to the fullest while we are on this planet.
Had Brandon lived, there’s no doubt in my mind that he would be one of the most popular actors in Hollywood today. The man is extremely good looking and charming. He’s also a great actor, speaks perfect American English, a martial artist and philosopher wise beyond his years. I don’t think there’s any leading man in Hollywood today that can touch Brandon Lee had he lived. Not Tom Cruise, not Keanu Reeves, not Will Smith, not Brad Pitt...none of them.
Completely agree! I believe the career trajectory of each of those you listed would’ve been extremely different had Brandon lived.. instead he remains forever young 💔
He had almost no fan base before making Crow he was just a B actor being Dolph's side kick. It was only until he got killed making Crow when people started actually acknowledging him. Its pretty sad actually.
Add to that the scene in the movie Game of Death where an actor playing Bruce Lee its shooting a scene and gets shot by an assassin that’s supposed to have a blank bullet
Around the time of Brandon’s death, there were rumors that he had started poking around looking into the circumstances of his Dad’s death. As in all things, probably a good idea to take the rumors with a grain of salt, but who really knows for sure except for the people directly involved and they’re past talking. It is possible that what were thought to be “discreet inquiries” weren’t so discreet after all. RIP Bruce Lee. RIP Brandon Lee. I pray your souls found each other in the afterlife. Two beautiful, vibrant men taken from us way too soon. 😩😭
After the Baldwin situation came out and so many discrepancies not to mention how they dramatized the whole thing to pronounce him innocent in public eye even before investigation I have no doubt this was intentional
Never heard that rumor other than those crazy conspiracy theories about his dad's poking the chinese mafia... but I saw an interview of his where the person ask him about these crazy rumors about his fathers death involves the triads and spiritual stuff and brandon's reply was " I really don't keep up with them " but your comment is a different story here.

Hey Mr Fazza im looked up the history of a lot Arab countries that were made independent after fall of Ottomans.What I found from Saudi Arabia to Dubia you are related. The lands we know as Saudi Arabia was a gift by the British to the Al Saud tribe family for their help in the war against Ottomans. Same with Dubia one of the relatives or cousins of the Al Saud got the kingdom of Dubia as a gift by the British. Before they got the lands from the British for helping defeat Ottomans the Al Saud tribe and extended families were bandits in the deserts who robbed travelling caravans which made them rich powerful and grew in size. The most interesting details of the history is that because Ottamans lost the war against British and Al Saud tribes the Muslims lost Jerusalem to the British. Just like the deal made of gifting Saudi Arabia Dubia etc the British also had a deal with the Zionists to gift Jerusalem and big part of then Palestine to the Zionists. So the absolute fact of history is that the Al Saud tribe and their extended family were responsible for the loss of Jerusalem and the Al Aqsa and Dome of the rock. Still not sure why Muslims blame the Jewish people when the real reason for losing some of the holiest places in Islam was the Arabs mainly Al Saud and the then rulers of Dubia. Then the blame goes on the Zionist and British by doing deals with lands that don’t belong to them. The real owners were the Muslims Jewish Christians who lived in total peace and harmony for centuries. When I shared my research with a few friends they were amazed they didn’t know anything about the history. One of the friends is a go happy hippie kind of girl. She had a completely different conclusion which she said was that in truth leaders of the Muslim World the Kings of Saudi Arabia Dubia have a traitors bloodline.They got the lands from treachery. Thanks just wanted to share some history with your highness prince of Dubia
@@supermariogamer4622 unfortunately Brandon was going to easily carry his fathers legacy and be a mega martial arts 🥋 star. Brandon definitely was talented.

He was so beautiful. My favorite movie of all time is "The Crow" and I've never seen the sequels because it just didn't seem right to do the sequels. RIP Brandon....you are dearly missed. 💔

It still upsets me so much that he was shot on the set of "The Crowe". What were the idiots of the set thinking to not know that one of the guns were loaded 😤nobody was ever held accountable for his death.
On March 31, 1993, Lee was filming a scene in The Crow where his character is shot and killed by thugs.[91] In the scene, Lee's character walks into his apartment and discovers his fiancée being beaten and raped. Actor Michael Massee's character fires a Smith & Wesson Model 629 .44 Magnum revolver at Lee as he walks into the room.[92] A previous scene using the same gun had called for inert dummy cartridges (with no powder or primer) to be loaded in the revolver for a close-up scene. (For film scenes that utilize a revolver where the bullets are visible from the front and do not require the gun to actually be fired, dummy cartridges provide the realistic appearance of actual rounds.) Instead of purchasing commercial dummy cartridges, the film's prop crew created their own by pulling the bullets from live rounds, dumping the powder charge and then reinserting the bullets. However, they unknowingly or unintentionally left the live primer in place at the rear of the cartridge. At some point during filming, the revolver was apparently discharged with one of these improperly deactivated cartridges in the chamber, setting off the primer with enough force to drive the bullet partway into the barrel, where it became stuck (a condition known as a squib load). The prop crew either failed to notice this or failed to recognize the significance of this issue. In the fatal scene, which called for the revolver to be fired at Lee from a distance of 3.6-4.5 meters (12-15 feet), the dummy cartridges were exchanged with blank rounds, which feature a live powder charge and primer, but no bullet, thus allowing the gun to be fired without the risk of an actual projectile. However, since the bullet from the dummy round was already trapped in the barrel, this caused the .44 Magnum bullet to be fired out of the barrel with virtually the same force as if the gun had been loaded with a live round, and it struck Lee in the abdomen, mortally wounding him.[93][94] He was rushed to the New Hanover Regional Medical Center in Wilmington, North Carolina, where he underwent six hours of surgery.
Growing up as a young Adult this Movie really had me on the edge. I seen a Crow yesterday with it's Top beak missing and they are masters at flight even flying side ways.I was inspired to create a Crow/Brandon lee tribute. The sequels were so successful and it was because they weren't fully with Brandon lee Spirit to excel his Father's name.
DEFINITELY NOT A MISTAKE FOR BRUCE HIMSELF RECIEVED SEVERAL THREATS AGAINST HIMSELF AND HIS SON THAT THEY ARE PROMISED TO NEVER EVER HAVE NO MALE OFFSPRING OF HIS SEED IN THIS WORLD 🌎

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️💖💖💖💖💖 Both Bruce and Brandon lived their life in what they loved and enjoyed. I believe someone out in the mist was afraid of their success. Father and Son will both be remembered 💪

Cause they have American features right.... But the youthful face of the Chinese. I mean keeanu is in his 40s and still looks twenty. Asian's have good youthfulness unlike me who looks 40 in his 20s😂😂
He was so beautiful... Bruce Lee, an incredible intellectual, artist, embassador, and martial arts legend. Brandon, a fine actor, bright light, talent, and worthy son. So sad he didn't get to have children.
I searched about Brandon Lee and came here after learning of the tragedy of Halyna Hutchins. Here we are again after nearly 30 years mourning another tragedy happened the same way whilst filming. It seems like nothing has been learnt. So so sad.

I don't think it was an accident. He was on the verge of superstardom. Plus, I read that he was looking into the untimely passing of his father. No coincidence, imo.
@@susanrike7476 This rumor is quite new to me other than the spiritual aspect of their passing involving so many crazy conspiracy theories about bruce poking the chinese triads... but this seems like a behind the scenes investigation that may have got him killed so sad you can't even trust your friends around u anymore.
Yeah I remember when all this happened and the first thing I said was that wasn't an accident you don't accidentally put a 45 caliber bullet inside of a prop gun and I'm sticking to that story still to this day I don't care what anybody else says that was not an accident that's bullshit and it was done on purpose
They didn't use a prop gun, for some insane reason they used a real gun. I guess they were going to use blanks in a real gun for some idiotic reason. Probably to save cost. Instead of buying a prop gun that can only fire blanks someone working on the set said I have real gun and we can use blanks. It was probably a gun they kept loaded on their nightstand and they just brought it in loaded and nobody ever even looked.
So sad. Although I train and am an instructor in his Father's art of Jeet Kune Do I was more of a "fan" movie wise of Brandon's films. The Crow is a great performance by him but I think it was only the start of what could have become. Rapid Fire is still my favorite Martial Arts movie. So much potential cut short :(
How come no one was charged for the "negligence" in the shooting death of Brandon Lee? How did a "live" round get into the chamber of a gun which shoots blanks? So many unanswered questions.
The Crow is my favorite movie of all time. Bruce Lee was a hero of mine growing up. I always think about what could have been. Such a tragic story for both but the world should be thankful for the gifts they gave us while they were here.
I remember Brandon's character in Showdown In Little Tokyo- he was extremely funny there, especially in the torture scene! It may be a not so good movie, but he was quite a wisecrack there. I also nearly squealed when he knocked off the gun from Dolph Lundgren by back flipping. He was quite a charmer there.
He got shot in action, just like his father. Sadly. Huge legends! The scene in the crow, where he gets shot a lot and falls off the table, is where he got shot in real life. His stunt double finished the movie.

@@thebyronicmann8292 I don't believe I said Bruce was a good actor, but Bruce is a legend in martial arts, his son was a wannabe! We weren't discussing Bruce to begin with were we?
Steve Mcintosh I don’t believe i said Brandon was a good actor either. I said he was destined to be a massive star. Arnold Schwarzenegger wasn’t a good actor but he has great charisma. Brandon also had great charisma and star quality and before you start comparing Arnold’s charisma to Brandon’s Judge Arnold how he was at the very beginning of his career.
He and I were the same age. It's so heartbreaking what happened to him,and he had such an amazing future ahead of him. I was a huge fan of his,and his father. They were both beautiful, talented men.💙💙

This is tragic, I really hope that he is with his Father now. Bruce & Brandon are missed by many , we only got to see a smidgen of what they had to show and tell. Wise , strong and polite. Personally I hate how Hollywood treated Bruce......it was wrong !
Brandon Lee is a gentle man. I never knew he was such a talent, a kind soul and very artistic individual not just in kungfu but acting aswell. I think Brandon would have done amazing films and works had he lived longer. He had class, he could kick, punch and dance in the rythm of the beat. He could be like a water and could act. It's just sad not seeing his other works and projects. Thank you to the person who made this wonderful short video about him. Had it not been for you, I would not have known this legend.
Sad story, the loss of his dad was huge for him, yet he carried on with such strength of legacy and courage. Someone put that .44 caliber bullet in the gun. It couldn’t happen by accident. A box of blanks has no live rounds in it, know what I mean. That case needs to be reopened.

@@Alpha11 "Brandon Lee was indeed shot while filming. It was a tragic accident involving a gun firing blanks. A fragment of a dummy bullet, from a previous scene, was lodged in the gun and fired into Lee, fatally wounding him. Some mystery remains surrounding the film of the incident, with some saying it was destroyed, and others saying it was confiscated by police. It was not used in the movie. The scene was rewritten and re-shot using a double, and the manner of his death is different than what happened in the fatal accident. "No credible evidence links the tragedy in any way to organized crime or martial arts overlords. Everything that happened was fully explained by the events of the day, no external mysterious forces required." Dunning, B. "Hollywood Myths." Skeptoid Podcast. Skeptoid Media, 21 Dec 2010.
