cerebral edema (cause is unknown) sorry if it's been said before. but that's the only legitimate reason i have heard of
Well... Oniw17, it wouldn't make sense that Bruce was a cocaine user because he never manifested the physical symptoms of being a cocaine user. For example, Bruce's resting heart rate was on average around twenty something beats per minute (extremely low!) In fact, at UCLA facilities where he got his June 1973 physical it was also very low. A cocaine user would have a higher than normal heart beat. Bruce worked out hard, but that's very possible without drugs. Look at Olympic gymnasts and marathon runners and such. They don't use drugs, yet they push their bodies to the limits. Bruce was no different... and he was a very serious, dedicated, and disciplined martial artist, which is why he pushed himself so hard. Bruce actually stopped working out the last few months of his life (as he was told to by physicians). He had become lethargic and a bit ill and had lost a large amount of weight for no apparent reason. He was under enormous pressure and he had definitely overworked himself. He became an insomniac the last year of his life and was experiencing frequent mood changes, depression, and anxiety attacks according to some loved ones. For those reasons, it is VERY possible Bruce used some sort of tranquilizer to relax him (and by very possible, I mean he DID use tranquilizers). I don't believe any were illegal (other than the marijuana, which actually isn't even a tranquilizer), but I do believe he became overdependent on them.
Well... That's a good point you made, one_raven. I agree, someone should start a JKD thread here and discuss Bruce's philosophy, which is very connected with Eastern philosophy. By the way, I also own the book you are talking about.
the shaolin masters killed jun fan and his son brandon with a Kameamea wave for teaching the western devils the secrets of chinese combat, no wait he died snorting coke right phlog ? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! peace.
Lee Jun Fan, one of Bruce Lee's names. He was also kown as Li Yuen Kam for a while, and also Sai Fung, a feminine name, which is a tradition to confuse evil spirits or something. The Nurse that delivered him gave him the name 'Bruce' but he didn't use it until he went to college. His screen names are various translations of 'little dragon', as he was born in the year of the dragon.
no it was because he chased the brown dragon Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! yeah he was given a girls name because the evil spirits wanted to molest him when he was younger. they should have used a coin sword to whoop the evil spirits ass. take that shar chi Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! peace,
Why dwell on his death or all the bad things he might have done. Instead we should focus on his teachings and learn from him. Isn't that what he wanted us to do?
