Kung Fu Not Real, Right?




Yo Mr Trivia,


My Friend Spencer and me have a bet for 10 dollars American, about Kung Fu. I say that it's a series of clever camera tricks, stunt-work, wire-work and computer generated animation that makes it look as though human beings are doing super-human feats of stength, athleticism and acrobaticism. It's origins are in the US television show of the 1970s "Kung Fu" starring David Carradine. It is all fake like another American show of the same era "The Six Million Dollar Man" starring Lee Majors. (Who, at that time, was married to Farrah Fawcett.)

Spencer says Kung Fu is an ancient Chinese martial art whose best practitioners can perform amazing feats of strength and speed.

Which of us is right?

P.S. Thanks for your help with the "According to Jim" question.



Hi Massimo,

Thanks for your comments. I am here to serve. As for the bet, Spencer is right again. Pay the man.
