The Life of Bruce Lee – Learning From Legends
In my first ‘Learning From Legends’ video, I looked at the life and lessons of Arnold Schwarzenegger. I had planned to cover Houdini next, but there was a huge number of requests to cover the life of Bruce Lee first – and so here we are.
I’ve discussed Bruce Lee a few times on this channel. And to be honest, there is so much content out there recounting the life and biography of Bruce Lee, that I’m not sure I have a lot to contribute to that discussion. I recommend Bruce Lee: Fighting Spirit for those interesting in a detailed biography, and apparently the recent Bruce Lee: A Life is also a very good read.
Instead then, I’m going to take a look at some of the highlights and most interesting points from Bruce Lee’s life. Using this information, we’ll try and deconstruct what made him the global icon he became. Not just his philosophy, his training, or his martial arts – but his decisions, actions, and demeanour. What can we learn from Bruce Lee the man?

For 45 years, fans, experts and forensic pathologists have offered different theories, ranging from the supernatural (killed by an ancient curse or bad feng shui) to the ridiculous (poisoned by Japanese ninjas) to the ironic (the figure known for the catch phrase "Be like water" drank too much water). Conspiracy theorists blamed his luckless mistress, painting her as a sinister black widow. Now, the first authoritative biography of the crossover martial arts movie star, Bruce Lee: A Life, reveals the true timeline of his last day and a compelling new explanation for his demise. His final day on earth started well. On the morning of July 20, 1973 in Hong Kong, the 32-year-old box-office phenom met with Australian actor George Lazenby, who played James Bond in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969), to offer him a part in his upcoming
