1983 Old School Documentary - THIS IS KUNG FU

Esta é um raro documentário chinês de Wushu que remonta ao ano de 1983, provavelmente elaborado pelo governo chinês como uma forma de propaganda do esporte. Ele reúne muitos praticantes famosos de Wushu Moderno da época, tais como o Time de Wushu de Pequim e um jovem Jet Li (que ainda fazia parte do grupo), demonstrando vários dos estilo tradicionais e contemporâneos de Kung Fu.

Classic. I bought the VCR tape long ago but now it was spoilt due to moss and fungus. Good to see it here. Thank you for preserving this tape.

Very skilled athletes no doubt but it might be more accurate to call this movie this is comtemporary wushu....

Saint Mars Hi, I just want to contradict the part where you said that they would be killed in real combat. My teacher was a former Tianjin team athlete from the 80s and I can tell you that the athletes from that time would have had a lot of combat experiences because they sparred and since China was a poor country then people were more rough fights happened quite often. Most of them would have had a traditional background before being selected into the pro teams. A lot of the old school wushu athletes from that time could actually execute the techniques very well In combat and use techniques from the forms instead of reverting to boxing like most today.

The best way to watch this is to mute the sound and play video game and dance music in the background. It has been the hit at innumerable parties, as the fighting syncs up so well to upbeat music. You can use songs from my "Kung Fu" playlist and thank me later. Just make sure that you play the song "Staying Alive" at the 52:55 mark.

This is not real kung fu.This is Wu Shu!

Sounds like someone should learn mandarin

@@deepfractal923 sounds like someone should study China's history. Wushu is the new name the communist party gave to kung fu when they reintroduced it after the cultural revolution.

[@isaac_alali23]

information to know: wushu in chinese means (martial arts) kung fu means (someone who is a master in something, it could be cooking, drawing, or martial arts ) so the right name is wushu but people now used to call it kung fu

[@josemartins7299]

@@isaac_alali23 Wu shu (Martial arts) are the modern official chinese government format to old ways of Kung Fu, often just gymnastics or folklore. But who believes how a ditactorial regime woluld allow martial practices by people! A toatal nonsense!
