1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Tonight on History's Greatest Mysteries,

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:10,000
he was an action hero, a cultural icon,

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:15,000
a martial arts legend on the cusp of superstardom.

4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,000
I'm Lawrence Fishburne.

5
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:22,000
On July 20th, 1973, Bruce Lee died tragically at the age of 32,

6
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:26,000
the official cause of death, a fatal reaction to aspirin.

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,000
On tonight's mystery, Bruce Lee's surviving brother

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
has questions about what really happened.

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,000
It was total shock. I mean, how could that be?

10
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,000
I need answers about Bruce's death.

11
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,000
Now Robert Lee has enlisted a former Hong Kong police detective

12
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,000
to launch an investigation into the truth.

13
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Do you think there was foul play?

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
Good question. You know, I would sure like to find out.

15
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,000
Was Bruce Lee killed because of bad blood?

16
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,000
Bruce pulls out knife, threatens that if Lowell Way says anything

17
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,000
or does anything, he's going to stick it in Lowell Way's neck.

18
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
Was his death self-inflicted?

19
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,000
I was rather shocked to discover Bruce had had his sweat glands removed.

20
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,000
Could the answers lie in Bruce Lee's previously unseen autops?

21
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:19,000
They look for arsenic. Quite a common way of poisoning people.

22
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:25,000
Or could Bruce Lee have been caught up in a gangland feud with Hong Kong's underworld?

23
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,000
The mysterious death of a true action hero.

24
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Who or what killed the one the only Bruce Lee?

25
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,000
The End

26
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,000
At the dawning

27
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,000
Of the morning

28
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,000
On the earth

29
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,000
Of the dragon

30
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:21,000
Today, Bruce Lee's brother, Robert, is a musician who lives in Los Angeles.

31
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,000
Bruce is far more than just his big brother.

32
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,000
He is his inspiration.

33
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:32,000
Into this world came a little dragon Bruce Lee.

34
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,000
Every time I do the ballad of Bruce Lee,

35
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,000
yeah, just think of him.

36
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000
It's hard not to miss him, hard not to think about him

37
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,000
because he is my idol, really.

38
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,000
For he was strong

39
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:54,000
and his will untame.

40
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,000
Well, this was early on in, you know,

41
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,000
I think this is taken in the 60s in L.A.

42
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000
Is the model?

43
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,000
Yeah.

44
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:17,000
In the late 1960s and early 70s, Bruce Lee had begun to find fame on American television.

45
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,000
Kato's right with the Deathly Art of Kung Fu.

46
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,000
Supporting roles in Hollywood pictures.

47
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,000
It's Lee, the underpunch.

48
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,000
And in low budget Hong Kong action movies.

49
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Against the dragon, even the best are better off dead.

50
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,000
But Bruce wasn't satisfied.

51
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,000
He had far bigger ambitions.

52
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,000
He did write down on a piece of paper,

53
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,000
which he put under his pillow every night,

54
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:54,000
that he wanted to be the highest made actor in the world.

55
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,000
He doesn't write down, man, I just really like a job.

56
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,000
He doesn't write down, I'd like steady work.

57
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,000
He writes down, I want to be the biggest star in the world.

58
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Like that's the level of his ambition.

59
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:13,000
As this rare interview shows, Bruce's ambitions reached far beyond simple fame.

60
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:20,000
He saw his films as the perfect platform to fight back against prejudiced and racial stereotypes.

61
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,000
In the United States, I think something about the Oriental,

62
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,000
I mean the true Oriental should be shown.

63
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,000
Hollywood sure as heck hasn't.

64
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000
You better believe it, man.

65
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:38,000
There's always that pigtail and bouncing around chop chop, you know, with the Iceland and all that.

66
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,000
Bruce always wanted to be a pioneer.

67
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,000
And I'm sure that's what he wanted, you know, people to remember him by.

68
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:56,000
On July 20th, 1973, Bruce Lee was in Hong Kong.

69
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,000
Awaiting the release of the movie,

70
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,000
he hoped would finally bring him the international fame he'd crave.

71
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,000
The film's brother presents Enter the Dragon.

72
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Made with one of the biggest studios in Hollywood,

73
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,000
he knew this film could make or break his career.

74
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:23,000
Enter the Dragon is the first time a Chinese-American male actor has ever starred in a Hollywood movie.

75
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:30,000
Starring Black Bell Call of Fame, undisputed martial arts champion and international film star Bruce Lee.

76
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,000
For Bruce Lee, this had been everything he'd been working for.

77
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,000
And if it succeeds, it will launch him into superstardom.

78
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,000
If it fails, he's never going to make it as a Hollywood actor.

79
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:46,000
And so this is the ultimate big break for Bruce Lee.

80
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Bruce is not just the movie's star,

81
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:53,000
he is also the fight choreographer and directs the martial arts scenes.

82
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,000
Fighting techniques are carefully choreographed by Bruce Lee.

83
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:02,000
This is a plan in coordination at the only protection against possible legal accidents.

84
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:11,000
Less than a month before the movie's release, Bruce Lee complains of a headache.

85
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Takes a painkiller, goes for a nap, but never wakes up.

86
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,000
His death leaves the whole of Hong Kong in shock.

87
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,000
One day he was alive and well and he was being Bruce Lee

88
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,000
and he was on the verge of achieving everything he'd ever dreamed of.

89
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,000
And the next, he just was gone.

90
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,000
How could their hero have died so suddenly?

91
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:48,000
The crowds and the cameras give Bruce's widow, Linda, little chance to grieve in pride.

92
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:54,000
An American, she and her two children, have only been living in Hong Kong for a little over a year.

93
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:59,000
Raymond Chow, who is Bruce's producer, business partner and his friend,

94
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:03,000
has to take on the role of like uncle or father, protector,

95
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:10,000
to Linda and the children through what would be a very unfamiliar ritual of a Chinese funeral.

96
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,000
What do you know about Han?

97
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,000
We know everything. We can prove nothing.

98
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:27,000
Just 30 days after Bruce Lee's passing, Enter the Dragon is released.

99
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,000
Enter the Dragon, where the world's greatest martial arts athletes meet the ultimate challenge.

100
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:38,000
To this day, the movie has grossed an excess of $400 million,

101
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,000
making it one of the most profitable films of all time.

102
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,000
Bruce Lee on screen is just captivating.

103
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,000
You cannot take your eyes off of him.

104
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,000
He's a shining incandescent star, the Kung Fu hero.

105
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:59,000
The idea of the Asian male as this martial arts master who beats up all the bad guys.

106
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,000
There was no question that he was the superstar of this particular movie.

107
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,000
I think for young people of Asian descent,

108
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,000
and I think young people of all kinds of backgrounds all around the world

109
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:18,000
to be able to see that picture was transformative.

110
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,000
It was like mind-blowing.

111
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:29,000
To this day, Bruce Lee is a global superstar and icon.

112
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,000
In death, his life's dreams had come true.

113
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:46,000
For Robert Lee and his sister Phoebe, the cruel timing of Bruce's passing still weighs heavily.

114
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,000
I think the Dragon is a very strong spirit.

115
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,000
I saw his mother in the movie.

116
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Almost half a century after Bruce's passing, they are still haunted by rumors.

117
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,000
After his death, so many stories floated around.

118
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,000
Oh man, my goodness.

119
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,000
Yeah, there's always this doubt.

120
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,000
I mean, how? Why?

121
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,000
I don't know.

122
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
But if there's a doubt, there is a doubt, you know.

123
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,000
That's all I can say.

124
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:40,000
The official autopsy claims Bruce is killed by an allergic reaction to aspirin in the painkiller he took.

125
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:46,000
I mean, I think there was a perception on the part of everybody around the world, particularly in Hong Kong,

126
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:51,000
that aspirin was just too ordinary to kill somebody so extraordinary.

127
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,000
Is that really how Bruce died?

128
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,000
I mean, it's hard for me to believe what this was, very difficult.

129
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,000
I need answers about Bruce's death.

130
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:07,000
At 72, Robert wants to understand why his brother died before it's too late.

131
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:12,000
And he knows just the man to reinvestigate Bruce Lee's mysterious death.

132
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,000
Hey Robert.

133
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,000
Hey Philip.

134
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:20,000
His old school friend, Phillip Chan, a Hong Kong police detective during the city's most volatile decade, the 1970s.

135
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Chan investigated murders, gangland feuds, and Hong Kong's most high-profile cases.

136
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:32,000
I remember there was one time he solved a hostage situation in the city.

137
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,000
He was able to get all the hostages out and all that.

138
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,000
He became a hero.

139
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:44,000
I know you are a stand-up person and you have done a lot of investigations.

140
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:52,000
And I trust you, okay? So, Phillip, so if you can really help me to come up with some good, solid information,

141
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,000
I would really thank you so very much.

142
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,000
Do you think there was foul play?

143
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:03,000
You know, good question. You know, I would sure like to find out.

144
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:10,000
The Hong Kong authorities keep the official records of any mysterious death out of the public domain.

145
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:15,000
But Chan thinks these vials could provide vital clues.

146
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,000
I still have to get into the official record. The coroner's inquiry?

147
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,000
Right.

148
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,000
I cannot get it myself. I need your authorization as a member of his family.

149
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,000
Yes, I'll be more than happy to do that.

150
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Okay, okay, Robert. I think I would be very happy to help you.

151
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,000
Well, thank you.

152
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:37,000
The memory of a great hero, your beloved brother.

153
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,000
I'm very interested and I will help.

154
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Thank you, Phillip. I really appreciate that.

155
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,000
You're very kind. Really. From the bottom of my heart, really. Thank you.

156
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Okay, so please wait a minute.

157
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,000
I will.

158
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,000
As Bruce Lee passed away in Hong Kong,

159
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,000
Phillip Chan will send to his investigation in this city.

160
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,000
His first step is to reconstruct the day Bruce Lee died.

161
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,000
He starts with veteran journalist Robert Chow.

162
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,000
Come on in. Come on in.

163
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,000
Sorry to interrupt.

164
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,000
No, no, no, no.

165
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:22,000
In 1973, Robert Chow was an editor of one of Hong Kong's most popular

166
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,000
English-language newspapers, The Star.

167
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:30,000
Now, how did Bruce Lee's death come into your notice?

168
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,000
It was on a Friday night, you know, the 20th.

169
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,000
I think it was around about 11, 11.30.

170
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,000
That night, now we had stringers at hospitals.

171
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:46,000
The Star relied on freelance journalists known as stringers,

172
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:51,000
who prowled Hong Kong, searching for breaking news stories.

173
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:57,000
And the stringer actually went to the police desk in the hospitals.

174
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:02,000
So they did confirm that Bruce Lee was hospitalized.

175
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,000
And he was dead on arrival.

176
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,000
And then everybody went mad and, you know, crazy,

177
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,000
and we all followed that up.

178
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,000
That was how the story came about.

179
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,000
Knowing that the press had the story,

180
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,000
Bruce's business partner Raymond Chow releases a statement,

181
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:26,000
claiming Bruce collapsed at his family home while walking with his wife, Linda.

182
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:31,000
It is a story that is not only about the story of the deceased,

183
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,000
it is a story that soon unravels.

184
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:40,000
It was about two days later that the news came out that, you know,

185
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,000
Bruce Lee didn't die at his home.

186
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:47,000
As Raymond Chow claimed, he did, right?

187
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:53,000
This is actually the telly that says where Bruce Lee was actually found.

188
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:59,000
Ambulance number A43 was summoned to Bicken Hill Road,

189
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,000
on the second floor, flat A2.

190
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,000
A 32-year-old man was taken to Queen Elizabeth Hospital,

191
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:12,000
and he arrived at 2,300 hours that night, certainly not Bruce Lee's home.

192
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:19,000
This apartment on Bicken Hill is the home of 26-year-old actress Betty Ting Pei.

193
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:25,000
It is here that Bruce Lee is found unconscious and not breathing in her bed.

194
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:30,000
The two were reportedly having an affair.

195
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,000
Why do you think Raymond Chow lied?

196
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:38,000
What Raymond Chow wanted to do was to protect Linda, you know,

197
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,000
expanding of your husband's disability,

198
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:47,000
and even worse was that he was actually in bed in his girlfriend's place.

199
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:52,000
Raymond Chow told the press that Bruce Lee had collapsed at home with his wife

200
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,000
to try to cover up the affair.

201
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:01,000
And this turns this into the biggest scandal Hong Kong has ever seen.

202
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:08,000
Because of Raymond Chow's deceit, the death of Bruce Lee is shrouded in mystery from the very beginning.

203
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:13,000
The immediate thing the public learns is that they were lying about where Bruce Lee died,

204
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:18,000
and so their assumption, quite naturally, is what else did they lie about?

205
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,000
Maybe they lied about how he died.

206
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:31,000
In Hong Kong, former police detective Phillip Chan's re-investigation into Bruce Lee's death is underway.

207
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:40,000
He has discovered that from the very beginning the martial arts superstars passing was shrouded in deceit and lies.

208
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:47,000
Bruce Lee didn't die at his home, you know. As Raymond Chow claimed, he did.

209
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:55,000
Nearly 50 years after the event, a myriad of rumors and theories still swirl around Bruce Lee's death.

210
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:03,000
But with the help of Bruce's brother, Robert Lee, Chan has obtained documents which might contain the truth.

211
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:09,000
In this envelope are Bruce Lee's death files, official documents from the court in question to his death.

212
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:17,000
These documents would include his autopsy report, toxicology report, statements from witnesses, police officers and medical officers.

213
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:22,000
The Hong Kong government has never publicly released these records.

214
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,000
At his office, Chan scours the evidence.

215
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:37,000
I'm looking for inconsistencies in that base account, and for any decision which would be strange, dubious, and worthy of my further investigation.

216
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,000
He creates a timeline of the day Bruce Lee died.

217
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:51,000
On July 20th, 1973, Bruce arrives at the home of his alleged mistress, Betty Ting Pei, at 5 p.m. But he isn't alone.

218
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:59,000
With him is Raymond Chow, Bruce Lee's business partner and producer on the film Enter the Dragon.

219
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:06,000
What I'm interested in is understanding what Betty Ting Pei, the actress, and Raymond Chow say happened in the apartment that night.

220
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:17,000
According to both witnesses, the three sit down and discuss the script for Bruce's planned follow-up to Enter the Dragon, a film called Game of Death.

221
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,000
At 7 p.m., he complains of a headache.

222
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,000
Betty gives him a painkiller which contains aspirin.

223
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:35,000
Bruce goes to sleep and Raymond heads off for dinner, leaving just Bruce and Betty in the apartment.

224
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:43,000
At 9.30, Raymond calls to check on Bruce. Betty says she can't wake him up.

225
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Now, if you found somebody in your bed unconscious and unresponsive, what's the first thing you do?

226
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:57,000
You'd tell 999 call an ambulance, but that's not what happened.

227
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:06,000
Raymond tells the police he rushed back to the apartment and rang for medical assistance.

228
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,000
But not for an ambulance.

229
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:17,000
He called his personal doctor about 20 times and there was no answer. Then he called Betty's personal doctor.

230
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:27,000
Ten minutes later, Dr. Eugene Chu arrives and finds Bruce is not breathing and there is no heartbeat.

231
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:32,000
He tries CPR but can't revive him.

232
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,000
It's Dr. Chu who finally calls the ambulance.

233
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:49,000
Bruce doesn't get to the hospital until 11 p.m., a full hour and a quarter after he is first found unconscious and unresponsive.

234
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,000
Bruce Lee is officially declared dead at 11.30 p.m.

235
00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:01,000
When the public learns Bruce Lee died in Betty's apartment, she is seen as a prime suspect.

236
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:14,000
The Bruce Lee Betty Ting Pay scenario is like one of the classic lock room mysteries, which is that Bruce, Raymond, Betty are together at Betty's apartment.

237
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:19,000
Raymond leaves. Betty and Bruce will learn in the apartment Bruce dies.

238
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:28,000
This thing is Bruce is the one that ended up dead. Betty must be the one responsible because there was nobody else there.

239
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,000
Her lifestyle choices further fuel public suspicions.

240
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:42,000
Betty Ting Pay ran with a fast crowd and was involved in the darker aspects of Hong Kong show business and the underworld.

241
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:54,000
There are death threats against Betty Ting Pay and there were bombing threats that occurred where the bombers wrote on the bomb, Betty Ting Pay knows why Bruce Lee died.

242
00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:02,000
But she wasn't the only person in the apartment. Raymond Chow is also in her home on the night Bruce Lee died.

243
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:08,000
Why was Raymond so slow in giving Bruce the medical help that he needed so desperately?

244
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:15,000
Over the years, questions have been raised about his role in Bruce Lee's death.

245
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:26,000
Raymond's persona as a shadowy figure, as a bad guy, as the untrustworthy element in the equation.

246
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:34,000
It comes from a very obvious scenario, which was that it was show business and Bruce handled the show and Raymond handled the business.

247
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:40,000
Raymond built up his company Golden Harvest from nothing to being a leading studio in Hong Kong's movie industry.

248
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,000
But in doing so, he also built up a reputation for ruthlessness.

249
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:56,000
Raymond Chow was known as the smiling face tiger because he would smile to your face and nod and agree to everything and then he would rip you apart when you turned your back to it.

250
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:05,000
Raymond and Bruce had made three films before Enter the Dragon. All three had broken box office records in Hong Kong.

251
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,000
But in the months before Bruce's death, the two were openly clashing over money.

252
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:22,000
Bruce Lee was growing in frustration about what he perceived as being the inaccurate accounting and that he had not had the money back from his films that he should have done.

253
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:30,000
He would just confront Raymond and say, OK, I'm seeing in the trades the movie's made this much money. Where's mine?

254
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:41,000
In response, Bruce had started talking to other studios about making films without Raymond, leaving Golden Harvest in danger of losing its golden goose.

255
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,000
There's no studio who wants to lose their biggest star to some other studio.

256
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:54,000
And I think the situation was even more extreme for Golden Harvest because Bruce Lee was such a dominant part of their revenue stream.

257
00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:01,000
Probably 80% of their revenues was based on Bruce Lee. So it was an existential threat to have Bruce Lee lead.

258
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:13,000
Public suspicion has continued to swirl around Raymond Chow and Betty Ting Pei. But in 1973, both were cleared of any wrongdoing.

259
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:21,000
Obviously, the authorities didn't think there was any suspicious circumstances and there was no outplay. But why did they rule that out?

260
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:33,000
Former Hong Kong police detective Phillip Chan has zeroed in on two people of interest in his investigation of Bruce Lee's death.

261
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:42,000
Bruce Lee's alleged mistress, Betty Ting Pei, and his business partner and collaborator, Raymond Chow, owner of Golden Harvest Films.

262
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,000
Do you think there was foul play?

263
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,000
I would sure like to find out.

264
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:53,000
With the aid of Bruce's surviving brother Robert, Chan's been able to get access to previously unreleased documents.

265
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,000
This is a death certificate issued by the Hong Kong Register of Births and Deaths.

266
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:06,000
And down here it says the cause of death was acute cerebral edema due to hypersensitivities.

267
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:19,000
Cerebral edema is swelling of the brain. The authorities claim it was triggered by a hypersensitivity or allergy that Bruce Lee had to the aspirin in the painkiller Betty gave him.

268
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:29,000
They were coming to death by misadventure. This means that the death is considered to have been caused by an accident, which happened because of a risk that a person took voluntarily.

269
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:35,000
The authorities decided that Betty didn't know Bruce would have a fatal reaction to the tablet.

270
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Obviously, the authorities didn't think there was any suspicious circumstances and there was no foul play. But why did they come to that conclusion? Why did they rule that out?

271
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:55,000
This official verdict is based on one big assumption. The fatal swelling of Bruce's brain was caused by the aspirin in the painkiller.

272
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,000
But does the evidence back this up?

273
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:15,000
Chan is on his way to the office of one of Hong Kong's foremost forensic pathologists, Dr. Philip Baer, to review a key document in Bruce Lee's death files.

274
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,000
Hi, Philip.

275
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,000
Hello. Thank you for having me.

276
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,000
No, not at all.

277
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:26,000
Well, I brought some documents relating to Bruce Lee's death.

278
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:36,000
The first thing I would like to find out is about the cerebral edema. I know in layman terms it means the swelling of the brain. But how does it kill you?

279
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,000
Oh, it's simple. Let me show you.

280
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,000
Let me show you.

281
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:56,000
The brain fills up almost all the space in the skull. There's very little spare space. As soon as the brain swells, where is it going to go? There's nowhere to go.

282
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:15,000
Now, this is the underside of the brain. This is your brainstem. This controls your breathing. And this is exactly sitting against the bone here. So when this brain swells, it pushes down.

283
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:24,000
And that brainstem gets crushed. So you can't breathe. And when you can't breathe, of course, you will die.

284
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,000
Okay, so this is the autopsy report.

285
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:42,000
If Bruce's fatal cerebral edema really was caused by an allergic reaction, Dr. Baer would expect the autopsy to note skin rashes and swelling across many parts of Bruce's body.

286
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:55,000
No description of swelling of the eyes, of the lips, or of the tongue. No mention that there was any skin rash. Okay?

287
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:11,000
And if you... Here it talks about the respiratory system. So the airways, there's no swelling. So nothing. There's nothing here that would suggest to us that Bruce Lee had...

288
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,000
an allergic reaction that would kill.

289
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,000
Basically what you're seeing is that Bruce Lee did not die because of his taking aspirin.

290
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:31,000
Personally, if you ask me, I don't think so. The autopsy report shows no evidence that there was an allergic reaction.

291
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:43,000
In 1973, the authorities misinterpreted the evidence in the autopsy. The fatal swelling of Bruce Lee's brain must have been caused by something other than aspirin.

292
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,000
So, what's the latest?

293
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:50,000
I've talked to one of the top forensic pathologists in Hong Kong.

294
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:57,000
And, well, he told me that there wasn't a shadow evidence that your brother died of.

295
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,000
No, I don't. An aspirin.

296
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:00,000
Okay.

297
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,000
So, yeah.

298
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,000
So what?

299
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:07,000
So we have to cover up the other angle. One of the first things that I would like to look into would be foul play.

300
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,000
Hmm.

301
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:23,000
During those months, and maybe May, June, or July, did he tell you any stories about any encounters, you know, unusual encounters, like fights or, you know, challenges?

302
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:28,000
And physically, did he bear any signs or anything that was unusual?

303
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:34,000
He didn't mention that, you know, he was challenged by one person on the set.

304
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:48,000
You know, he actually walked up to Bruce during a break and says that, you know, he's like, well, Bruce Lee, you know, I've seen action fighting, you know, your heroism on the silver screen.

305
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:54,000
But I don't know how well you can do in life person.

306
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,000
Hmm.

307
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:09,000
The Hong Kong film industry in the 1970s was notoriously rough and violent, and Bruce Lee reportedly did make enemies, some with connections to the city's seedy underworld.

308
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:14,000
In 1970s, Hong Kong's not the wild west. It was the wild east.

309
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:27,000
In 1973, Bruce Lee died from swelling of the brain. The authorities ruled this was caused by a fatal reaction to aspirin.

310
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:32,000
But a leading forensic pathologist has cast doubt on this verdict.

311
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:37,000
The autopsy report shows no evidence that there was an allergic reaction.

312
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:42,000
Basically what you're seeing is that Bruce Lee did not die because of this taking aspirin.

313
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,000
I don't think so.

314
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:49,000
If aspirin didn't cause the deadly swelling of Bruce Lee's brain, what did?

315
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:53,000
Could the answer lie in Bruce Lee's past?

316
00:28:53,000 --> 00:29:02,000
Growing up in Hong Kong, Chan remembers hearing stories about Bruce Lee's legendary love of violence and fighting.

317
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:09,000
Bruce Lee's mother gave birth in San Francisco at 712 a.m. on November 27th, 1940.

318
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:15,000
According to the Chinese zodiac, Bruce was born in the hour and the year of the dragon.

319
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:28,000
The dragon represents the pinnacle of power and the sort of myth, the legend of Bruce Lee is really bound up with this symbol of him as a dragon.

320
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:34,000
From childhood, Bruce lived up to his birth sign. He was infamous for his fiery temper.

321
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,000
Oh yeah, don't cross Bruce.

322
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,000
He was not very good at tempering, but he was very kind.

323
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:47,000
But it was Bruce's short views that led him to the martial arts skill which made him famous.

324
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:53,000
He was a little bit like a little boy. He had his own cleverness, right?

325
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:57,000
He didn't like to read books, he was a good man.

326
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,000
He had a makeup on, he had a makeup on every day.

327
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,000
He had a makeup on all day.

328
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:10,000
Bruce Lee's family moved back to Hong Kong in 1941.

329
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:15,000
Growing up in the city in the 1950s, Bruce studied win-chun,

330
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:21,000
a style of close-up fighting that uses quick arm movements and powerful kicks to defeat opponents.

331
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:26,000
He learned this skill alongside this man, Chan Chee.

332
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,000
Their teacher was a kung fu legend.

333
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,000
This is my seafood, yip man.

334
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,000
This photo is very important.

335
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:43,000
I remember when I first started doing the win-chun, this school, yip man school.

336
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,000
This is yip man. This is me.

337
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:54,000
In recent years, the Grandmaster, yip man, has risen to mythical status,

338
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,000
even spawning a series of movies about his life.

339
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:05,000
But much of his fame comes from one very naturally gifted student, Bruce Lee.

340
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,000
Even to me, to do the win-chun, I'm not stupid.

341
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,000
But of course, cannot compare with him.

342
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Because he catch quick, clever and give what we call the sky gift.

343
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:26,000
Then, a British colony, Hong Kong was rough, chaotic,

344
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,000
and flooded with refugees fleeing communist China.

345
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:35,000
Bruce found this the ideal place to show off his natural skills and vent his anger.

346
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,000
I'm not a little bit of a kid.

347
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,000
I'm not a little bit of a kid.

348
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,000
I'm not a little bit of a kid.

349
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,000
I vent his anger.

350
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:54,000
In crowded Hong Kong, students from rival Kung Fu schools staged bloody challenge fights,

351
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,000
wherever they could find space.

352
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:05,000
The win-chun people, what they learn, they like to try to see, can work or not.

353
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,000
So we're usually relied to fight with our side.

354
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,000
When he was seven years old, Carmel Chow became one of a small number of people

355
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:19,000
to have witnessed Bruce Lee fighting for real.

356
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:27,000
There's only one fight, which I saw myself, which is up the rooftop of this building.

357
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,000
I begged my brother to take me up to dinner to watch.

358
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:37,000
He didn't want me to go there, because obviously it was insolable for me,

359
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,000
but since then, he took me there.

360
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:45,000
Even though he was only 17, Bruce was an old hand at these challenge matches.

361
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:50,000
Let's go to the rooftop now, where the fight took place.

362
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,000
Fight happened here.

363
00:32:54,000 --> 00:33:00,000
Bruce came up with his mates yelling, shouting, so when the guy says,

364
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,000
ready, and they start the fight.

365
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:10,000
And within minutes, the other guy was being knocked off,

366
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:15,000
being hit badly, and Bruce walked away and within no time.

367
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,000
So it happened very quickly.

368
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:21,000
And I saw the other guy lying somewhere here, I think, with blood in his face,

369
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,000
really badly injured.

370
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,000
He's all bashed up by Bruce.

371
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,000
I think he came back with a black eye.

372
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,000
It was the first time I saw Bruce with a black eye.

373
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,000
And I said, wow, what happened?

374
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:40,000
He said, you know, I got the black eye, but you know what?

375
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,000
My opponent, he lost a lot of teeth, you know, from the fight.

376
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,000
You know, so I know I won.

377
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:59,000
Martial arts did prove a perfect release for Bruce's temper.

378
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,000
But his love of fighting also landed him in trouble.

379
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:08,000
Around 1958, Bruce was involved in so many fights, you know.

380
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,000
He was being observed by the police.

381
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,000
He said, you know, if your son involves in another fight,

382
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,000
we'll definitely, you know, take him to jail.

383
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,000
Bruce's parents took radical action,

384
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:38,000
sending the 18-year-old to the United States with just $100 in his pocket.

385
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:42,000
But as this footage from 1965 reveals,

386
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,000
Bruce gets his big break in Hollywood

387
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,000
because of the talents he learned on the rooftops of Hong Kong.

388
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:51,000
What's interesting about Bruce Lee when you see him in that screen test

389
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,000
is he's got this real charisma.

390
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,000
They ask him to show some punches and kicks,

391
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:59,000
and he grabs this, like, 60-year-old cameraman

392
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,000
and has him stand there while he throws these punches

393
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,000
that are faster than the eye can see,

394
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,000
but like millimeters from the man's face.

395
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,000
No one had ever seen this before.

396
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:17,000
So this is the break that he needs to launch his sort of Hollywood career.

397
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,000
It is this spellbinding display that lands Bruce his breakout role

398
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,000
as the Green Hornet sidekick and driver, Cato.

399
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:28,000
Each week, they ride with Cato and the Green Hornet

400
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,000
on their relentless fight against crime.

401
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,000
But despite his star billing,

402
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,000
Bruce is treated as a second-class citizen.

403
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,000
He didn't want to play the part of Cato initially.

404
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,000
He had to play the houseboy to a white guy.

405
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,000
I'm with you, boss.

406
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,000
He was telling me how disappointed he was.

407
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,000
You know, not being used as the main character.

408
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,000
But I guess back in the 60s, you know,

409
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,000
there's still discrimination going on.

410
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:55,000
Cato strikes with the deadly art of kung fu.

411
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,000
He was paid the worst of any of the actors,

412
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,000
even though he was the second lead in the show.

413
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,000
He got paid half of what the secretary,

414
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,000
who had no lines on the Green Hornet, got paid.

415
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,000
The ratings start off pretty good, but then they take a nosedive,

416
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,000
and then they're like,

417
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,000
it's not good, but then they take a nosedive,

418
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,000
and it gets canceled.

419
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,000
After just 26 episodes,

420
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,000
Bruce's first taste of U.S. stardom is over.

421
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,000
He is now another jobless actor in L.A.

422
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,000
But as a non-white male,

423
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,000
he finds it difficult to land the lead roles

424
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,000
he feels his talent deserves.

425
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:34,000
Back in 69, he only had $50 left in the bank.

426
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,000
That's what Bruce told her.

427
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,000
So he decided that maybe he should get a job

428
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,000
as a security guard.

429
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,000
But then they said, no, no, no, you cannot do that,

430
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,000
because once you start doing that,

431
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,000
Hollywood will not use you anymore,

432
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:53,000
because, you know, you've really gone downhill.

433
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:58,000
But there is opportunity on the other side of the Pacific.

434
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,000
Raymond Chow offers Bruce Lee a movie deal

435
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:04,000
with his new studio, Golden Harvest in Hong Kong.

436
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:08,000
Bruce Lee very much was worried that he would make a movie

437
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,000
that was terrible, and so he wanted control

438
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,000
of the script and the martial arts choreography

439
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:15,000
in the movie.

440
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,000
And Raymond Chow said, I'll give you whatever you want,

441
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,000
because Raymond Chow was desperate.

442
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,000
Bruce jumps at the chance to return to Hong Kong.

443
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:27,000
But could this choice be linked to his death?

444
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,000
Philip Chan wants to understand

445
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,000
if Bruce Lee's short fuse made him enemies

446
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,000
in 1970s Hong Kong.

447
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,000
On his return to the city, Bruce instantly struck up

448
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,000
close relationships with his stuntmen,

449
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:50,000
socializing with them both on and off set.

450
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,000
One of them was Ah Bee.

451
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,000
Ah Bee, when you did Enter the Dragon,

452
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,000
you were very, very young.

453
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:00,000
How old were you?

454
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,000
You know, we were 18 years old.

455
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,000
We didn't have a bank.

456
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,000
You were really young?

457
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:07,000
Of course.

458
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,000
In this castle, there was a ballroom.

459
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,000
We were playing pool.

460
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,000
When we were young, we would play basketball

461
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,000
all the time.

462
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,000
The Po Hing Snooker Club was a place where movie stars

463
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,000
rubbed shoulders with members of Hong Kong's

464
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,000
organized crime gangs, the Triads.

465
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,000
These mobsters controlled much of the city,

466
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,000
from nightclubs, bars and movie theaters,

467
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,000
to gambling, massage parlors and opium.

468
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,000
They were infamous for handing out brutal and often fatal

469
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:39,000
beatings to anyone who stood in their way.

470
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,000
In 1970s, Hong Kong's not the wild west,

471
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,000
it was the wild east.

472
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,000
I mean, Sam Oh Hong, who Bruce Lee had fought

473
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,000
at the beginning of Enter the Dragon,

474
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:56,000
has a unique round scar between his nose and his mouth.

475
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,000
And that's actually the shape of a coke bottle

476
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,000
that had been broken off and then driven into his face

477
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,000
like that during a gang fight.

478
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:09,000
Hong Kong in the 70s was rough and chaotic,

479
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,000
and this violent atmosphere extended to movie sets,

480
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,000
where Bruce Lee seemed wary of everyone.

481
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,000
Hong Kong's name is a name for the movie.

482
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,000
Hong Kong's name is a name for the movie.

483
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,000
Hong Kong's name is Hong Kong's name.

484
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,000
Hong Kong's name is Hong Kong's name.

485
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,000
Actually, he's lose control.

486
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:02,000
According to a close friend, Bruce Lee was getting into fights

487
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,000
in the months before his death.

488
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:08,000
Could this be the smoking gun Phillip Chan has been looking for?

489
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:12,000
A head injury sustained in a fight could fit the fatal brain swelling

490
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,000
that claimed Bruce Lee's life.

491
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,000
But who would dare take on Bruce Lee?

492
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,000
And who would have a motive?

493
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:24,000
One suspect, a director Bruce Lee publicly quarreled with,

494
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,000
Low Way.

495
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,000
According to multiple witnesses,

496
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:32,000
10 days before Bruce Lee's death, their feud turned violent.

497
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:36,000
Bruce pulls out a knife, threatens that if Low Way says anything

498
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,000
or does anything, he's going to stick it in Low Way's neck.

499
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:48,000
Former detective Phillip Chan has learned from a personal friend of Bruce Lee

500
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,000
that the film star was getting into fights on movie sets

501
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,000
shortly before his death.

502
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,000
He said,

503
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,000
he will really get into fights.

504
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:04,000
A blow to the head sustained in a fight could trigger swelling of the brain,

505
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,000
the known cause of Bruce's death.

506
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,000
But who would want to hurt Bruce?

507
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:14,000
In the past, suspicion rested on Bruce Lee's business partner and producer Raymond Chow.

508
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:18,000
And Bruce's alleged mistress, actress Betty Ting Pei.

509
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,000
But Chan has unearthed another person of interest

510
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,000
who had a fraught relationship with Bruce Lee,

511
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,000
the film director, Low Way.

512
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,000
It is well known that Low Way and Bruce Lee had a long running,

513
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,000
often very public feud.

514
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:36,000
This feud had been running like a sole opera.

515
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:42,000
In 1971, Low Way was the director on Bruce's first martial arts film with Golden Harvest,

516
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,000
The Big Boss.

517
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,000
From the start, their relationship was hostile.

518
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:50,000
Low Way was an egomaniac, and Bruce Lee was an alpha male,

519
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,000
and they clashed as you would expect.

520
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,000
But Big Boss broke box office records in Hong Kong.

521
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:04,000
In 1972, the pair reunited to make a second movie, Fist of Fury.

522
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,000
The film is an even bigger success,

523
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:10,000
but their relationship deteriorates to name-calling and sniping in the press.

524
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:16,000
Low Way had done interviews in the media where he played down Bruce's ability

525
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,000
and played up his own directorial skill.

526
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,000
Low Way thought Bruce Lee was a snotty, little disrespectful actor

527
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,000
who wasn't giving him enough face,

528
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:30,000
and Bruce Lee thought Low Way was a, you know, a know-nothing, second-rate hack

529
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:35,000
with a too big of an ego and unprofessional behavior on set.

530
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,000
And they both were probably right about each other.

531
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,000
Just 10 days before Bruce's death,

532
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:43,000
Hong Kong's newspapers reported that his feud with Low Way

533
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:47,000
had escalated beyond insults and name-calling.

534
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,000
When I was digging through all this material,

535
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,000
I found something very intriguing, an incident

536
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:55,000
which took place on the 10th of July, 1973.

537
00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:00,000
Now, here's the headline, which is in Chinese, my translation.

538
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:03,000
A conflict broke out between Low Way and Bruce Lee

539
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,000
during a screening at the Golden Harvest Studio.

540
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:10,000
It almost developed into a bloody incident, but friends intervened.

541
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:15,000
Police had to be called to the scene to end the film studio storm.

542
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,000
That's what they called it.

543
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,000
Bruce pulls out a knife,

544
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,000
threatens that if Low Way says anything or does anything,

545
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,000
he's going to stick it in Low Way's neck.

546
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:27,000
Low Way, then, having been threatened with a knife, calls the police.

547
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,000
Low Way would have lost a lot of faith in that incident.

548
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,000
Would it have triggered an act of revenge?

549
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:36,000
I cannot rule that out as a possibility.

550
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:44,000
I'm afraid I have to put Mr. Low Way as one of the key persons of interest.

551
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:49,000
Supposedly, Low Way had a dark side.

552
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:55,000
In the late 70s, he was contracted to direct Jackie Chan's first films.

553
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:59,000
There was a falling out, and Jackie refused to work with him anymore.

554
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:03,000
According to Jackie, Low Way sent mobsters to intimidate him

555
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,000
until he came back on set.

556
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:11,000
In Hong Kong, mobsters mean only one thing, the feared and violent tryouts.

557
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:17,000
In the 1970s, there were tens of thousands of tryout gang members in Hong Kong.

558
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:22,000
Coming into contact with organized crime was a fact of life for the city's residents.

559
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,000
And Low Way wasn't the only one of Philip Chan's suspects

560
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,000
with alleged connections to the mob.

561
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:39,000
Bruce was found unconscious in the bed of 26-year-old actress Betty Ting Pei.

562
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:45,000
Betty was running with a fast crowd. She was gambling, she was drinking too much.

563
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:50,000
So that meant that Bruce sometimes had to stamp in and pick up the pieces when stuff fell apart.

564
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:56,000
Betty's fast lifestyle reportedly drew her into the seedy world of the tryouts.

565
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:03,000
Betty had run up a lot of debts, gambling, and some triad thug was demanding she pay him back.

566
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:08,000
Bruce and Betty met this guy and his henchmen in some shadowy back street.

567
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:14,000
And the guy got paid by Bruce, then he's been all cocky like you see even.

568
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,000
The great Bruce Lee has to pay Big Brother so and so.

569
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:23,000
And in response, Bruce takes out a coke can, takes a finger, stabs it through the can,

570
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:28,000
and the carburetor beverage sprays all over henchmen number one.

571
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:32,000
And Bruce throws that down, gets in the car, and he and Betty leave.

572
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:39,000
He was not intimidated by anybody and he felt as he famously said to tell you the truth,

573
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,000
I could beat anybody in the world.

574
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:53,000
Could disrespect for the triads or a feud with Low Way have made Bruce Lee a target?

575
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:59,000
Through his contacts in the movie industry, Chan has received a previously unheard audio recording

576
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:05,000
of a retired actor who Chan knows had connections to the criminal underworld.

577
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:14,000
The actor claims the official verdict is wrong. Bruce didn't die in Betty Ting Pei's apartment.

578
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,000
I was a kid.

579
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,000
I was a kid.

580
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,000
I was a kid.

581
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,000
I was a kid.

582
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,000
I was a kid.

583
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,000
I was a kid.

584
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,000
I was a kid.

585
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,000
I was a kid.

586
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:47,000
I was a kid.

587
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,000
I was a kid.

588
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,000
I was a kid.

589
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,000
I was a kid.

590
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,000
I was a kid.

591
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:57,000
I was a kid.

592
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,000
I didn't die.

593
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:07,000
Chan knows from years of experience that brutal beatings fit with the triads' modus operandi,

594
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:13,000
but would the organized crime gangs really have targeted someone as high-profile as Bruce Lee?

595
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:18,000
He can only be certain by talking directly to a self-confessed triad.

596
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,000
A��u t breathing into the house?

597
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,000
You're dead.

598
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,000
In his investigation into Bruce Lee's death,

599
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,000
Phillip Chan has unearthed a new lead.

600
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,000
I'm going to talk to him.

601
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:38,000
People are taking the blood and the blood.

602
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,000
The blood is not well.

603
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:44,000
A recording that alleges Bruce was beaten to death

604
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,000
by triads with metal bars.

605
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:50,000
Chan has discovered Bruce had reportedly clashed with the mob.

606
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,000
Bruce takes out a coat can, takes a finger,

607
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,000
stabs it through the can,

608
00:47:55,000 --> 00:48:00,000
and the carbonated beverage sprays all over Penchman number one.

609
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:04,000
And 10 days before his death, Bruce had threatened director Lo Way,

610
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:07,000
a man with suspected links to the criminal underworld.

611
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,000
Bruce Lee got into Lo Way's face

612
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,000
and essentially physically threatened him

613
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:14,000
if he talked smack about him to the press.

614
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:21,000
In the 1970s, organized crime activity in Hong Kong

615
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:24,000
was centered in the seedy area of Mong Kok.

616
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,000
Phillip Chan was a detective

617
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,000
trying to keep law and order in this neighborhood.

618
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:33,000
He knows triads are secretive and rarely speak in public.

619
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:37,000
But he has convinced a former gang member to talk.

620
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:42,000
Today, Chan Y. Mann is a wine importer.

621
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:47,000
In the 1970s, he was a martial arts film star in his own right.

622
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:51,000
He had learned his fighting skills as the personal bodyguard

623
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:54,000
of one of the most feared triads,

624
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,000
the heroine kingpin, Fat Boy Kwon.

625
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:20,000
As an actor, Chan Y. Mann worked with both Bruce Lee

626
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,000
and his arch enemy, the director Lo Way,

627
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,000
a man with a known connection to the triads.

628
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:29,000
Phillip asks about the altercation Bruce Lee had with Lo Way

629
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,000
just 10 days before his death.

630
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,000
We're told that Bruce Lee went into Lo Way's office one day

631
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:39,000
and brandished a spring knife and threatened to beat him up.

632
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,000
Did you know about this?

633
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:54,000
I was afraid that he would be so scared.

634
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:57,000
I didn't mean to beat Lo Way.

635
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,000
I thought that would be the case.

636
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:03,000
Lo Way told me that he would beat me up.

637
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:08,000
Maybe he would have died if he had beaten Lo Way.

638
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:13,000
According to Chan Y. Mann, Lo Way brushed off this altercation

639
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,000
as nothing more than a clash of egos.

640
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:19,000
He is adamant the director had nothing to do with Bruce Lee's death.

641
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,000
But how about the infamous triads?

642
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:25,000
Since Bruce Lee was such a great fighter,

643
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:29,000
would any triad who wanted to advance

644
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,000
want to challenge him?

645
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:35,000
And if you defeat Bruce Lee, you immediately make yourself famous.

646
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,000
You rise from the ranks.

647
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:51,000
You don't want to be famous.

648
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,000
You want to be famous, right?

649
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:57,000
Or no one wants to do that?

650
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:02,000
The black society is trying to make it possible.

651
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:04,000
It's impossible.

652
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,000
A man at the very heart of the triads

653
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:18,000
is categorical that the gangs had no interest in harming Bruce Lee.

654
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:23,000
His status as an idol and symbol of power to Chinese people around the globe

655
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,000
meant he was untouchable.

656
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:28,000
Philip Chan is aware this is only one man's opinion,

657
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:33,000
but he knows it is in line with the information in Bruce Lee's death vials.

658
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:37,000
The triads are renowned for carrying out violent beatings and attacks.

659
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,000
But could Bruce Lee have succumbed to this?

660
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,000
One thing I would expect to see is if a person is attacked,

661
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:49,000
he would raise his arms to defend himself and deflect the punches.

662
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,000
That would surely leave Bruce Marx on his arms.

663
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:54,000
Here's the out-of-the-sea report.

664
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:57,000
First of all, on the very front page it says,

665
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,000
there are no signs of injury.

666
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,000
This is vital evidence.

667
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:05,000
Then further down here, it notes that his scalp is free of bruising

668
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:10,000
and his scalp shows no evidence of fracture or injury.

669
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:13,000
It says Bruce Lee's ribs are not fractured.

670
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:17,000
Now none of this is consistent with a violent attack.

671
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:22,000
I have to conclude that there's no evidence to suggest that Bruce Lee was ambushed

672
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,000
and attacked by the triads.

673
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:31,000
It is time for Philip to share this new information with Bruce's brother, Robert.

674
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:32,000
Hey, Philip.

675
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,000
Hi, time for an update.

676
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:35,000
Okay.

677
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,000
Do you remember our old friend, the triad guy?

678
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,000
Chen Weiman?

679
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:41,000
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

680
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:49,000
I tend to believe his analysis that Bruce wasn't involved in any triad attack

681
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:54,000
or any triad ambush or any triad animosity at all.

682
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:55,000
Does that go to here?

683
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:57,000
Of course he was well loved by the triads.

684
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:58,000
Yes, yes.

685
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:04,000
So we can cast those things aside, you know, when it comes to foul play.

686
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:08,000
But Robert isn't satisfied that murder can be ruled out.

687
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:15,000
A friend who worked at the funeral parlor that prepared Bruce Lee's body noticed a strange detail.

688
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:23,000
Well, come to think of it, I mean, I met one of our family friends who was family owned the funeral parlor

689
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:26,000
that Bruce's service was carried in.

690
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:31,000
And she told me that, you know, she noticed that his nails were black.

691
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:37,000
Were Bruce Lee's black fingernails a sign of foul play?

692
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:43,000
It matches a popular theory of how Bruce Lee died, but one that has never been proven.

693
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:46,000
One possibility is that, you know, he was poisoned.

694
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:56,000
Martial arts superstar Bruce Lee died from swelling of the brain.

695
00:53:56,000 --> 00:54:01,000
The official verdict, it was triggered by an allergic reaction to aspirin.

696
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:07,000
But a new investigation by former police detective Phillip Chan has raised doubts.

697
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:13,000
Basically what you're seeing is that Bruce Lee did not die because of this taking aspirin.

698
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:18,000
The autopsy report shows no evidence that there was an allergic reaction.

699
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:23,000
Now Bruce's brother Robert has brought up an alternative possibility.

700
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,000
Bruce's fingernails were black.

701
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,000
They said, why could that possibly be?

702
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:31,000
One possibility is that, you know, he was poisoned.

703
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:37,000
Some poisons starve the victim of oxygen, which can lead to blackening of the fingernails.

704
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:42,000
And poisons can trigger swelling of the brain, the cause of Bruce Lee's death.

705
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:49,000
But this information is from one witness who saw Bruce's body at the funeral parlor in 1973.

706
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:54,000
Chan searches Bruce Lee's death vials for other evidence that Bruce Lee was poisoned.

707
00:54:54,000 --> 00:55:00,000
He finds a potential clue in a statement by Bruce Lee's business partner Raymond Chow.

708
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:04,000
This is on 10th of May 1973, just 10 weeks before his death.

709
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:14,000
Raymond Chow describes how one of his workers rushes into the room and tells him that Bruce has collapsed in a sound studio.

710
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:23,000
Raymond describes Bruce struggling to breathe, pale, drenched in sweat, and convulsing.

711
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:29,000
He then rings the doctor and orders four of his employees to carry Bruce Lee into his own car.

712
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:32,000
Then he drives him to the Baptist hospital.

713
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,000
And here we have exhibits eight and nine.

714
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,000
Police statements from two doctors.

715
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:50,000
In these statements from 1973, the doctors describe Bruce as completely unresponsive and showing little sign of life.

716
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,000
They diagnose him with swelling of the brain.

717
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:57,000
The same condition that kills him just 10 weeks later.

718
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:04,000
As one doctor trained remarks, he was very close to his death medically on that day.

719
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:07,000
Now that sounds like a very serious condition.

720
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:15,000
The doctors inject a drug called mannitol, which reduces the swelling and saves Bruce's life.

721
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:22,000
The medics suspect the swelling of Bruce's brain was triggered by toxicity or poisoning from drugs.

722
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:30,000
This is intriguing. Bruce cheated that once, but on the second occasion he wasn't that lucky.

723
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:42,000
Within a 10-week period, he has two collapses and one near-death experience and one fatal experience from cerebral edema.

724
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:47,000
So my logical conclusion is those two things are linked.

725
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:59,000
And if you want to understand the reason he died on July 20th, 1973, you need to look more closely at what happened on May 10th, 1973, 10 weeks earlier.

726
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:04,000
And if you can explain what happened that day, you can explain why Bruce Lee died.

727
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:14,000
A poisoning link between the two events was investigated in 1973 and the spotlight fell on one illegal drug.

728
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:25,000
Cannabis was found in Bruce's autopsy and as official records reveal, he admitted to eating some moments before he collapsed on May 10th.

729
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:36,000
There is no known medical link between cannabis and swelling of the brain, but could this lethal condition have been caused by something else in the marijuana Bruce consumed?

730
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:44,000
I think the question is, was his cannabis in some way tainted on those two special occasions?

731
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:52,000
And if it was tainted, was it somebody had intentionally tainted the cannabis to hurt, to weaken him or even to kill him?

732
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:58,920
The

733
00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:09,000
Cann returns to forensic pathologist Dr. Baer to see if there was anything at Bruce Lee's autopsy that points to poisoning.

734
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:17,000
So this is the toxicology report. They look for alcohol in case he drank a lot that wasn't there.

735
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:27,000
Morphine, we know morphine is common in heroin. They found nothing. They did a lot of other tests, heavy metals.

736
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:37,000
So quite a common way of poisoning people and particularly arsenic is one. Lead would be another one that's common.

737
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,000
Those were found.

738
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:46,000
Can we say conclusively that there's nothing in the autopsy which suggested that there was an administering of poison on Bruce?

739
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:58,000
A lot of the poisons that you feed someone are irritants. So the stomach would show bleeding or they might be vomiting or having diarrhea.

740
00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:02,000
So we're not seeing that. We're not getting that history.

741
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:10,000
There is no hard evidence that Bruce took poison cannabis or that he was killed by any toxic substance.

742
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:25,000
Everything that we have in terms of the toxicology report, the autopsy report, the way Bruce was supposed to have died doesn't support really poisoning.

743
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:37,000
Previously, Chan had ruled out a physical attack as the reason why Bruce Lee died. Now he has eliminated poison.

744
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:52,000
With no evidence of foul play, he can exonerate his three suspects in the case. Bruce's business partner, Raymond Chow, his alleged mistress, Betty Ting Pei, and the director of his first martial arts movies, Lo Wei.

745
00:59:52,000 --> 01:00:00,000
But if Bruce Lee wasn't murdered and if he wasn't killed by an allergic reaction to aspirin, why did he die at just 32 years of age?

746
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:10,000
Could the answer to this mystery lie with Bruce himself? Could he have been secretly suffering from a medical problem? And could it have been self-inflicted?

747
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:15,000
I was rather shocked to discover Bruce had had his sweat glands removed.

748
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:32,000
In his investigation into the death of Bruce Lee, Philip Chan has eliminated the official verdict that he died from an allergy to the aspirin in a painkiller. And he has found no evidence that Bruce Lee was a victim of foul play.

749
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Everything that we have in terms of the toxicology report, the autopsy report doesn't support really poisoning.

750
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:55,000
Now Chan is returning to an event that happened 10 weeks before Bruce's death. On May 10th, Bruce collapsed because of swelling of the brain, the same condition that claims his life in July.

751
01:00:55,000 --> 01:01:09,000
On the first occasion, his life is saved by fast-thinking doctors. Bruce jetted to Los Angeles for a full medical checkup. While in California, he visited his younger brother, Robert.

752
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:21,000
When he came back to LA in May 1973, did he mention about his condition in the hospital and the emergency of that situation, that particular time?

753
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:33,000
No, I mean, he just brushed all those details aside because to him, I mean, he said that it wasn't a big deal.

754
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:45,000
Bruce Lee may have told his brother it wasn't serious, but according to the doctors, he had stopped breathing and was extremely close to death. Why would he pass off this episode so lightly?

755
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:55,000
If he had a health problem, let's presume, would he be the kind of person to just keep it within himself and not tell anybody or would he confide into anyone at all?

756
01:01:55,000 --> 01:02:08,000
You know, he... Okay, first of all, his pain threshold is pretty high because I remember he was shooting Marlowe, one of the movies that he was doing with James Carter.

757
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:24,000
And in between shots, he was showing people his flying kick. And one... I mean, some muscles pulled one of the ribs and it broke the rib, okay?

758
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:32,000
So they took him to the hospital and lo and behold, I mean, come afternoon, after lunch, they were shooting again.

759
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:35,000
Yeah, he would bear the pain and...

760
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:41,000
Anything he can just, you know, continue doing, he'll do, you know?

761
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:53,000
If Bruce Lee had a history of ignoring medical issues, was he keeping a condition secret that caused his collapse in May and led to his death 10 weeks later?

762
01:02:53,000 --> 01:03:04,000
As purely as an exercise in logic, you would say, he collapsed in May, he died in July. What links these two events?

763
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:09,000
Could there be a clue in the task Bruce was doing on the day of his first collapse?

764
01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:16,000
What happened on May 10th is that Bruce Lee was redubbing lines from Enter the Dragon.

765
01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:28,000
The day was the hottest day of May in tropical Hong Kong summer and they turned off the air conditioning and people there describe it, the room is becoming like a sauna.

766
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:41,000
So while Bruce Lee is doing these lines, he starts to feel dizzy, he needs to take a break, he walks out of this superheated room, he goes to the bathroom and he ends up collapsing on the floor.

767
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:45,000
Did he collapse because of something he'd done to himself?

768
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:59,000
Once I looked at May 10th, I was rather shocked to discover that six months earlier on November 15th, 1972, Bruce had had his sweat glands removed.

769
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:08,000
There was no medical reason for this extreme surgery. Bruce had the sweat glands removed from his armpits because he was a perfectionist.

770
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:15,000
He had been doing all these martial arts scenes with his shirt off and they kept having to kind of wipe him down between takes.

771
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:24,000
And he was like, he went to the doctor and said, can you do anything about this? And they said, well, actually we can remove your sweat glands.

772
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:37,000
That sweat glands is a symptom of that idea of like, you know, if I need to achieve a goal, I don't mind what it costs, I don't mind what's involved with it, I'm going to do it.

773
01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:40,000
If nobody else has done it, that's fine. I'm going to be the first one.

774
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:51,000
Did Bruce's decision to have the sweat glands removed from his armpits leave him unable to control a critical biological process regulating his own body temperature?

775
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:57,000
Bruce's collapse on May 10th bears the classic hallmarks of a medical condition that can be fatal.

776
01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:08,000
There are certain symptoms of heat stroke that are common throughout. One is faintness, dizziness, headache, collapse, convulsion, and cerebral edema.

777
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:16,000
But how about on the day he dies? Does he have symptoms on July 20th?

778
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:24,000
He is at the apartment of Betty Ting Pei on a day, which when we look back at the records was the hottest day of the month of July.

779
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:33,000
And when I spoke to Raymond Chow, Raymond Chow said that Bruce Lee had been demonstrating kung fu scenes from his upcoming movie.

780
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:39,000
And at a certain point, Bruce complained of being dizzy and feeling like he had a headache.

781
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:51,000
Betty Ting Pei gives him one of her pain medications. He takes it, he lies down, and he never gets back up again.

782
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:59,000
On the day he dies, Bruce does have some symptoms that match heat stroke, which can cause fatal swelling of the brain.

783
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:04,000
Could this explain Bruce's sudden death?

784
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:14,000
Chan returns to the office of Dr. Bear to scour the autopsy for other evidence that Bruce died from heat stroke.

785
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:21,000
Interesting question. Let me answer the swag glands first.

786
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:27,000
Your armpit swag glands or the axillary swag glands, they're not that important.

787
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:36,000
Because we have swag glands all over our skin for temperature control, they're not critical at all.

788
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:42,000
Humans lose most heat via the swag glands on their chest and back.

789
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:48,000
Our armpits play virtually no role in regulating our body temperatures.

790
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:52,000
I don't think that surgery is important.

791
01:06:52,000 --> 01:07:04,000
But to be sure, if we look at the autopsy report and here we have it, here it talks about the microscopy of the kidneys.

792
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:08,000
So it's looking down the microscope, looking at the kidneys.

793
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:15,000
One of the things with heat-related deaths is that your muscles, the cells die.

794
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:22,000
The protein in the muscles actually would leak out and get into your bloodstream.

795
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:29,000
And this protein actually will clog up your kidneys, but it's not that.

796
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:35,000
The histology of the kidney here is entirely normal.

797
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:41,000
The autopsy contains no evidence of kidney damage, meaning heat stroke can be ruled out.

798
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:47,000
But Chan has uncovered that Bruce had a history of hiding medical problems.

799
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:53,000
Maybe there was another health issue that the martial arts superstar was keeping quiet.

800
01:07:54,000 --> 01:08:00,000
Could there be clues hiding in plain sight in this fight scene from Enter the Dragon?

801
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:10,000
Bruce had lost even more weight and looked significantly skinnier in that footage, which was the last thing Bruce ever shot.

802
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:18,000
Just a few months before his death, Bruce Lee was filming Enter the Dragon.

803
01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:23,000
Some have said the final scene filmed in the movie holds clues to his death.

804
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:33,000
From the photographic record that we have and the film record that we have, Bruce maintained a certain fighting weight throughout the bulk of the shoot of Enter the Dragon,

805
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:36,000
where he was ripped up, cut.

806
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:41,000
Well, if you look at him in the underground fighting chamber when he fights with all the guards underground,

807
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:46,000
you just see every part of his physique popping out against that black background.

808
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:55,000
A month after filming has finished, studio executives watch a screening and agree they want to see more of Bruce at the beginning of the film.

809
01:08:55,000 --> 01:09:02,000
So they decided to pay for the fight sequence between Bruce Lee and Sam Orhang, which was the last thing shot for the film,

810
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:07,000
the last thing Bruce ever shot that we know of in this lifetime.

811
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:14,000
And by the time they came to shoot it, Bruce looked significantly skinnier in that footage.

812
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:32,000
Phillip Chan wants to know if this is a trick of the camera or if Bruce Lee really had lost weight.

813
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:39,000
And if so, could this be linked to his sudden death?

814
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:51,000
Bruce Lee was famous for making strong friendships with his stuntman,

815
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:57,000
and appeared in many of his films, including the last scenes Bruce ever shot, is Yen Wah.

816
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:12,000
Yen Wah was Bruce's stunt double in Enter the Dragon.

817
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:29,000
Unlike Bruce, Yen Wah trained in Chinese opera which placed emphasis on acrobatics.

818
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:35,000
His superior tumbling skills are apparent in Enter the Dragon, if you know where to look.

819
01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:40,000
So this, they shot the opening scene at the end of the shoot.

820
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:09,000
The finished movie is edited so it looks like Bruce does everything in the scene.

821
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:13,000
But according to Yen Wah, that wasn't the case.

822
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:28,000
This wasn't the only time in the scene that Yen Wah doubled for Bruce Lee.

823
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:40,000
It might look like a piece of Bruce Lee magic, but it isn't totally of his own making.

824
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:16,000
Do you see anything very, very different in his physique and his mentality compared to the beginning of the shoot?

825
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:40,000
Chan has confirmation Bruce Lee did lose weight during the last months of his life.

826
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:44,000
Yet Yen Wah doesn't think this signaled a physical health problem.

827
01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:02,000
But was the result of Bruce overstressing himself?

828
01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:26,000
He believes the stress of trying to make Enter the Dragon a success was the root cause of Bruce's weight loss.

829
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:35,000
He was already getting into his 30s and perhaps if we wanted to read something more poetic into it, he had a sense that time was running out.

830
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:42,000
I think he was driven and obsessive and, you know, and utterly committed day by day to achieving his goals.

831
01:13:57,000 --> 01:14:06,000
Bruce's autopsy backs up Yen Wah's opinion that the weight loss was caused by stress rather than a deadly medical condition.

832
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:12,000
Bruce's heart is normal. There are no signs of disease or evidence of a heart attack.

833
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:17,000
All of his other internal organs, except his brain, are noted as being in good shape.

834
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:24,000
There are no signs of any disease that could account for Bruce's weight loss in the last months of his life.

835
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:34,000
With this final piece of evidence, Phillip Chan can discount a medical condition as the cause of Bruce Lee's death.

836
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:42,000
He has already eliminated poisoning, a hit by the triads, and the official verdict of fatal allergic reaction to aspirin.

837
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,000
He is running out of options.

838
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:51,000
But could the mystery of Bruce's passing finally be solved by a brand new theory?

839
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:55,000
I wasn't expecting that answer, but I accepted.

840
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:06,000
In Enter the Dragon, Bruce Lee announced himself on the world stage.

841
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:10,000
He brought martial arts to a global audience for the first time.

842
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:18,000
The movie is one of the most profitable ever made and proved that a Chinese American could be the hero in a Hollywood film.

843
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:25,000
For anybody who has felt like they're the underdog, Bruce was like a hero in that respect because you could be like,

844
01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:32,000
oh wow, look at this five foot seven guy who weighs maybe 120 pounds.

845
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:42,000
Beating up all of these villains and he's able to do it with grace, he's able to do it with dignity, and he's able to do it with a sense of style.

846
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:48,000
You're like, I can be that too. And that's the power of representation.

847
01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:54,000
As well as breaking down barriers, Enter the Dragon is one of the most influential movies in the history of cinema.

848
01:15:54,000 --> 01:16:02,000
When you watch a movie like The Matrix or Jason Bourne, what you see is Bruce Lee-type choreography.

849
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:09,000
It's high impact. It's like hyper realism. And yet it's grounded in a certain kind of messy reality.

850
01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:20,000
It's bloody. It's bloody. It's brutal. It's not dance choreography. All of our fight choreography in the West is Bruce Lee fight choreography.

851
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:25,000
But cruelly, Bruce never knew of the movie's cultural and financial success.

852
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:33,000
One day he was alive and well and he was being Bruce Lee and he was on the verge of achieving everything he'd ever dreamed of.

853
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:35,000
And the next he just was gone.

854
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:40,000
Leaving the people of Hong Kong in disbelief at the loss of their hero.

855
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:45,000
They had already in the newspaper Bruce Lee was dead. They had to come to the funeral to be absolutely sure.

856
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:53,000
It just didn't feel like it could be possible. And you see the massive throng of crowds outside.

857
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:56,000
And then you see the mass of people inside the funeral home.

858
01:16:56,000 --> 01:17:03,000
And you get a sense of the loss and a communal sharing of grief.

859
01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:09,000
Those who knew him personally struggled for answers.

860
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:15,000
It's hard for people to believe. So much for the loss of his hero.

861
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:22,000
Shocking. How come the age is still young and very strong and very famous? Why?

862
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:28,000
I don't know. It's really unfair to him.

863
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:33,000
He's a genius. A genius. A genius of kung fu.

864
01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:39,000
There is one person who has never fully come to terms with Bruce's passing.

865
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:52,000
After his death so many stories floated around. I wish somebody could really prove to me the real truth.

866
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:59,000
Bruce's brother Robert has asked his friend and ex-detective Phillip Chan to reinvestigate.

867
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:05,000
But he has struggled to find a cast iron reason for Bruce's death.

868
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:13,000
Now he is returning to forensic pathologist Dr. Baer who has spotted something unusual on the night that Bruce Lee died.

869
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:23,000
Now as far as the information I gather from all the documents you have, the equagisic that Betty gave Bruce.

870
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:27,000
It wasn't something that Bruce took regularly.

871
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:31,000
Equagisic is the painkiller Bruce takes to combat a headache.

872
01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:37,000
It contains aspirin but also another drug called meprobamate.

873
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:43,000
Realistically the discussion boils down to the aspirin and the meprobamate.

874
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:48,000
In 1973 the official verdict was Bruce Lee was killed by the aspirin.

875
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:52,000
But there is no scientific evidence that he reacted to this drug.

876
01:18:52,000 --> 01:19:02,000
Aspirin is so common now. People take it for prevention of stroke, for prevention of heart attacks.

877
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:06,000
So that leaves us with this, with meprobamate.

878
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:12,000
Meprobamate is a tranquilizer which was very popular in the US during the 1950s.

879
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:18,000
Under the name Miletown, it was prescribed to millions as a reliever of stress and anxiety.

880
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:24,000
But in recent years the drug has been banned in numerous countries because of its harmful side effects.

881
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:35,000
There are reports of people having idiosyncratic reactions to meprobamate and it possibly causing death.

882
01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:42,000
These idiosyncratic reactions are hard to predict as they only happen in a handful of people.

883
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:46,000
Dr. Baer thinks Bruce was one of the unlucky ones.

884
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:53,000
The probamate caused this swelling of the brain in Bruce Lee leading to him dying.

885
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:59,000
So Bruce Lee was killed by idiosyncratic reaction to one tablet.

886
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,000
Yep, sadly.

887
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:07,000
This is a brand new theory.

888
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:11,000
Meprobamate has never before been put forward as Bruce Lee's killer.

889
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:18,000
But the emergence of new scientific evidence in the years since Bruce died makes it a prime suspect.

890
01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:26,000
Just as in 1973 the conclusion is that Bruce Lee's death was a tragic accident, his fate was sealed.

891
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:30,000
The moment he chose to take a single equa-jizic tablet.

892
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:35,000
Would his death be pinnace?

893
01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:47,000
Well, from what we know of the scene, the description was he looked like he was in deep sleep, lying there peacefully.

894
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:55,000
And probably because of the cerebral swelling he was unconscious so again probably no pain either.

895
01:20:57,000 --> 01:21:03,000
For Chan this marks the end of the investigation.

896
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:06,000
But there's one more person he needs to talk to.

897
01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:10,000
Bruce's brother, Robert Lee.

898
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:11,000
Robert.

899
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:12,000
Yes.

900
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:14,000
Are you ready for my conclusion?

901
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:15,000
Yes.

902
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:18,000
Okay.

903
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:25,000
First of all I would like to tell you that your brother didn't die of an allergy to aspirin.

904
01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:31,000
And there was no evidence of Bruce being the victim of foul play.

905
01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:46,000
Now, despite your brother's reluctance to review medical problems to you or anybody else, you know, I can't find a link between a medical condition and his death at all.

906
01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:49,000
We actually, we left no stone unturned.

907
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:50,000
Okay.

908
01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:58,000
I returned to what happened on that, on the night of 20th of July 1973.

909
01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:11,000
The only thing out of the ordinary was that he took that, that one single tablet of equa-jizic, okay, and contains aspirin but aspirin isn't the only thing in that.

910
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:15,000
There's another chemical called myobermin now.

911
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:26,000
In recent years, medical findings have discovered that this particular element could have a fatal effect on some patients, although it wasn't known at the time.

912
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:33,000
The conclusion that I reached therefore is that your brother seemed to have reacted to myobermin.

913
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:37,000
And this, this was the only thing that killed him.

914
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:41,000
So it was a very tragic accident.

915
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:55,000
Well, I wasn't expecting that answer, but coming from you, I accepted, I accepted.

916
01:22:55,000 --> 01:23:09,000
It's very unfortunate. I can, I can share your feelings now that we've been involved in this for a while and at least we can get a lot of the other so-called mysteries out of the way and do him the justice he deserves.

917
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:18,000
But I can tell you one thing, there was no pain. He passed away peacefully.

918
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:23,000
Yeah, yeah. Thank you. Thank you, Philip.

919
01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:30,000
I was expecting to get an answer that will make me fall off my chair, but instead it didn't.

920
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:55,000
But I felt good and peaceful about it because I was hoping that it will not be foul play, that it will not be some freak weird person trying to kill Bruce, you know, this so solid and scientific and answer that I can really accept.

921
01:23:55,000 --> 01:24:08,000
Bruce passed away when he was 32 years old, when he was at the prime, at the peak of his physique and at the peak of his intelligence.

922
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:18,000
And he did something that nobody can achieve. And I think I have closure now.

923
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:20,000
Bruce will always be with us.

924
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:25,000
Yep, he will always be with us. Yep, that's right.

925
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:33,000
Bruce Lee's death has always been surrounded by mystery and subject to wild conspiracy theories.

926
01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:39,000
Now this investigation has forensically searched through the evidence and arrived at a new conclusion.

927
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:49,000
After almost five decades of hurt, Robert Lee finally has an answer for how his brother, the greatest martial arts movie star of all time, really died.

928
01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:54,000
Thank you for watching History's Greatest Mysteries.
