Bruce Lee would have been 70 years old today

As a kid, I was a HUGE fan of Bruce Lee, and back then I wondered how he would have turned out as an old man, filled with unsurpassed zen and wisdom, and what crazy movies he would have done in the 80s as a middle-aged action star.

Some people call him the grandfather of MMA, since he's the man behind Jeet Kune Do. To me, he was an icon, an entertainer, a teacher and a warrior that left us much too soon. Here are 5 of his most well-known clips that prove he is just that. Don’t believe it? He even beat Chuck Norris!
