Jackie Chan Trivia
|
- Despite the minimal formal education he received, he was made an honorary doctor of social science of the Hong Kong Baptist University, and an honorary fellow of the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts.
- Has a permanent hole in his head from a stunt accident.
- In his action scenes, his punches and kicks actually connect with their targets. He has his actors wear special padding in their feet and body to prevent serious injury.
- In the act of performing his own stunts, he has broken his nose three times, his ankle once, most of the fingers in his hand, both cheekbones and his skull.
- His stunt team is trained to perform the way he does. They must match him move for move, speed for speed, and so on. Because of this, many other actors have trouble working with him. For example, Ron Smoorenberg was doubled in "Who Am I?" (1998) because Jackie couldn't keep up with his movements and didn't trust him.
