Bruce Lee's Grave Site | A Closer Look At The Paved Ramp With Rail For Access

If you ask me who was my hero growing up (and even today), ten times out of ten I would tell you Bruce Lee.
The man, the legend, the movie star, the cultural icon... Bruce Lee paved the way for so many. Bruce Lee changed the world.
Today I decided to visit Bruce Lee, one day before exactly 49 years after his death. I decided to go one day early to avoid any potential crowds. In this vidieo I also share my insights on the paved ramp and rail to assist access. This is a new addition to Bruce Lee and son Brandon Lee's grave sites.

A little bit about me...
My name is Dennis aka Lao Ocean (also aka Dr. Wtpho, but more about that later) and I'm a Lao American KZbinr based in Seattle, WA. Seattle has been my home since 1980. My videos and vlogs consist of walking tours in Seattle and abroad, travel, and things related to the Lao diaspora. I drink way too much coffee, eat pho 20PHO7, and also make food and food review videos. 🤓✌️

Been over 25 years since saw Bruce and Brandon’s grave. ✌️

Brings back memories of my visit to his grave in 2018, thank you very much!

[@jwfloating-world]

Thanks for a great start to my remembering Bruce today. I agree with the bad vibes from there now, but also understand from the wearing out of the surrounding area. Still not keen on the railings and now with the bench being placed against the wall means you can't read the inscription on the other side. The inscription on Brandon's grave is taken from the book The Sweltering Sky and was to be included in his wedding 10 days after he was shot. There are some videos of him reciting the inscription which are very moving to watch. Thanks Dennis.😁✌🐉🐲

Cool 😎, I suppose to pay a visit to the gravesite later on this year, sometime in October.

[@paulleavell4317]

Thank you! Your video tours are Great‼🥰💝😁

[@sysomyoung7437]

Awesome!!

[@belladonnachronicles3369]

One of the reasons I moved here. The love of my life is moving here soon from Florida & is originally from the Philippines 🇵🇭 ♥️. One of the 1st things I'm gonna show him are the grave sights & then the statue you showed of Jose Rizal on Beacon Hill. Such good men😔❤️. Thank you for your content!

[@LaoOcean]

Two great humans, indeed.

[@theresashelton7063]

Wow it's really changed. I agree it doesn't flow the energy feels stagnant.

[@user-qs7kk9xy2h]

I first watched The Chinese Connection as a child and have been a big fan of Bruce Lee ever since. It's Lake View Cemetery. If I'm a fan, I want to go to the Holy Land. I renovated the area around the grave and it has become very good. I was surprised when I saw it on KZbin for the first time.

That was awesome Mr. Ocean... Thanks brother...

[@gi169]

GiL69 loves your video 💘

[@Ssssfs]

Thank you!!! Hello from Russia

[@jacksonlima2300]

I'm from Brazil my biggest dream in my life is to visit their graves I'm a Bruce Lee fan I hope one day to able to be there

[@archipelagobrown7349]

They would definitely want that. Remember they were celebrities and not regular men. It's to kinda secure the area of the grave yard. And i think it stands out for the fans to locate the place without issues

[@HolgerDanske]

I went there last year and chanted portions of the Lotus Sutra for the repose of their souls.

[@Koohai]

Bruce Lee is one of my heroes. I went to Seattle for vacation recently but, I did not get a chance to go to Bruce and Brandon’s grave site. Anyways great video and big respects to Bruce and Brandon Lee.

[@wmst5065]

I guess they took down the trees that used to be near the headstones. It's almost theme park like now.

The metal fencing around it is new. It was not there when I visited the Lees in July 2017. When did the Lee family/Lakeview Cemetery have it installed?

[@fattylovehandles8819]

i was just there a few weeks ago

[@user-wt5cc4of7r]

I think they built that some people would have easy way to get to Brandon and Bruce's grave

[@squatch545]

My first visit was in 1975.

[@rosenelson8023]

Quite a few years go my daughters took me on a " Death Tour"where we visited Bruce and Brandons graves, we also visited Jimi Hendrixs grave, the cemetary where Bruce Lee is buried was on of the most peaceful cemetary that I have ever visited.

[@colinj5291]

When did they do all the additions? I seem to remember the graves being under a tree with no railing or bricks.

[@ryananthony2614]

Rip peace Bruce lee

[@yianhinsaechao7898]

the QUOTE on BRANDON's tombstone is by PAUL " THE SHELTERING SKY " RIP BRUCE & BRANDON LEE..

[@zakkrick]

It’s a lot different from the last time I was there in 2004. The is cement and metal gates, back then there was only green grass all around

[@superdragon4ever]

I was there in June and the railing wasn't there. Don't remember about the paved ramp butt the railing for sure wasn't.

[@reginaldshelton4562]

I think that its very peaceful so bruce and brandon can rest in peace and as long as both of them received jesus as their lord and savior their with god their physical bodies are dust or going back to dust if their not quite a skeleton yet but very soon i hoped that they found jesus before they died because if not oh god their not at rest i dont know what they beleved in i hope they found jesus and not budda and if they received jesus as their lord and savior they will rise at the gathering away😊😊😊😊

[@grantchow13]

It’s a ramp, nothing more.
