Back in ‘the day’ when I used to read Black Belt magazine like a reverend reads the Bible, I practiced that spinning backfist daily.

I will forever be amazed, but unsurprised, at the speed with which professional athletes react. Batters hitting fast balls, fighters like the above, race car drivers of all flavors, slopestyle mountain bikers, etc. When you watch pros there are times when you know you could duplicate their efforts but you need 2, 3, 4 times more time to react.

Watch videos of F1 drivers doing a ball drop drill before races. They can smoke NFL players and that's documented. Crazy.

Yeah, I think people sometimes forget Norris was a 6 time, undefeated champ. He wasn't just an actor. He truly was a bad MFer.

I remember an interview where Chuck said when Bruce Lee contacted him about playing a part in his movie, Chucks first question..."Do I really have to lose?"

Showing my age but I remember seeing this movie at a drive- in and then wanting a Porsche. I just watched it again and it didn't age well, but the movie poster is legendary.

Soooo many of those 80's action flicks were just down right awesome when they came out.

Now you rewatch one - and you realize, wow, no wonder it only cost a million dollars to make that movie.
...it's still a "good" movie
...but it's "70's Good"
