I met a guy here in the islands that use to know him well and trained with him some.

It was kinda neat seeing the photos of them together hanging on the walls at his beach resort here..

Bruce and Skip met and became close friends in 1959, when Bruce was “only” a dishwasher at Ruby Chow’s restaurant on Capital Hill in Seattle, Washington

UU

The last time I saw Skip he asked me to sign as a witness to his will..

Great guy Skip was, and wish he was still around..

There is quite a bit of info about Bruce on that website, but you have to dig around to sort it out as the navigation is terrible..

Worth the time if you are interested though..

Yeah, and they backed the camera off too, shooting wider shots than they would normally, because Bruce moved so fast he could jump right out of frame.

Very cool to see.

The last form he does, tiger/crane, has definite similarities to the beginning of a tiger/crane form I have learned.
