When Jackie Chan goes out with his bodyguard, the bodyguard feels safe.

[@Sprizys]

I'm surprised he even needs a bodyguard.

[@anonymousreviewer169]

@@Sprizys when you're that popular, particularly during his peak years, you'd need a group of bodyguards to keep the fans away whilst out in public. It's not rooted in fear; it's just the only way you can navigate outside without coming to a full halt.

Did Jackie just call Conan a dickhead? Lol

The makers of Kung Fu Panda must have watched this interview and decided to make the master a Turtle

[@Shinja_Sleepwalker]

Jackie is a once in a lifetime character. There is something about him that is reminiscent of a dad. He has all these horror stories about the way that they did things in his day. Broke a finger? Pop it into place lol.

[@chrish4439]

I think he may have confused breaking with dislocating when it came to the fingers. This was back when his English wasn't as good. The way he describes just popping it back in doesn't sound like a break.

[@anonymousreviewer169]

@@chrish4439 while that may be the case, inside the martial arts world, breaking and dislocating are often used interchangeably -- for better or worse. In this sense, although he is not an actual martial artist, it sounds authentic.

[@garychrome1027]

He's not a model father figure

[@Astro-lh5od]

He even sings beautifully. What a legend

What a legend, holy moly. We're all lucky to have Jackie in our world.

[@levent.a.7280]

A legend? Don't forget he is from China

[@quackwalks]

No doubt, one of the most bad ass actors/stuntman/martial artists/and anything else probably. He knows hospitals are expensive, but he wants to make movies, he wants to do the stunts, and so not to burden anyone, he'll set his own damn bones and get on with the schedule.

[@kuldimanas]

And then there's Jackie Chan beside him

[@isaiahskates6587]

@@kuldimanas bro you are a genius lmao

Jackie Chan is that guy with black hair?

Jackie Chan's so thrifty you'd think he was dirt poor. But he's filthy rich, he could buy the entire hospital.

[@mirsabuddin5735]

Conan is a real actor. This hole in Jackie's head was also talked later after so many years (around 2017). Conan still gave a first timers response. 😂

[@Damateos-pn8ct]

Well….I guess touching it might give you a more emotional response😂😂

Memory lapse.

Jackie is a wonderful character ❤

[@marijanstojanoski3328]

Conan and Jackie should make a movie together action comedy they are realy interesting together

[@IamLegend32]

Can't believe I never thought of this! Jackie Chan's interviews with Conan are the best. If I remember correctly, Conan even had Jackie in as his first guest on the Tonight Show. They have awesome Chemistry. A movie with them two would be amazing!

Hey guys, just wanna say I love the comments section on Conan videos. It’s a nice warm fuzzy time going down memory lane with you folks! :)

[@brorjordas1979]

I remember well that my very first Chan movie was the Snake in the Eagle's Shadow. On VHS back in the 80s days. Oh man, was I once happy to get my hands on a DVD copy of it! But, yeah.. A big fan of Jackie ever since. And oh man, Jackie was cool in Cannonball Run 2 along with Richard Kiel!

[@ChaserXaviour]

Well handled, Conan. I was right, there with you with what you where saying about these shows getting crazy and you have no idea where you're going at, with it. 2:07-2:10 Good to see that things didn't get out of hand with you and Jackie Chan. He can be a very dangerous man and I've seen just how quick his reflex's are but his not like he used to be when he was young to dominate people just because of how easy things where for him but then again, its hard to say what is all an act but all of the injuries, its speaks volumes about himself with just how much he can endure but its good to see how much you follow into the story to make an enjoyable experience for your guest.

[@quasar8744]

I'm not even born at this time, few months later tho..both are legends❤

[@jimmaurer8361]

If you've never seen Forbidden Kingdom, I highly recommend. A fight scene between Jackie and Jet Li is totally epic. And overall a very entertaining movie

“Whats wrong with you today?” proceed to check his temperature in the most asian way😂😂

[@surfwriter8461]

I'm amazed that his hands and fingers are not showing much evidence of prior injuries. A lot of basketball players, for example, have badly bent or disfigured fingers from getting those fingers jammed and broken. (I have a couple like that.) But he says he just pops them back into place, followed by a daily routine of flexing in a certain way. It's pretty amazing, but I think you either have to have a very high pain tolerance or a masochistic attitude to keep subjecting yourself to such injuries. Let a stunt guy get hurt, that's wiser. As for the drunken master style, it reminds me of Tai Chi Chuan in its martial application. A famous saying is "the whole body is a hand"--meaning any part of the body can be used against an opponent. You flow with the energy of the attacker, using his force against him, etc.

[@zumragulkartall8863]

Which movie are they talking about cause I'm curious about that his bodyguard played the role
