I knew the man personally and while i'm amazed at what BRUCE LEE'S original student,GRANDMASTER JESSE GLOVER comment about the speed of BRUCE LEE and yet he could'nt imagine anybody faster than SONNY is a statement of truth because we saw BRUCE LEE on his prime while we are seeing the SONNY well over 50 years old !!!

Sonny was a true warrior. Lethal and humble. Taught me a lot about life.

The blond woman is Guro Maija Soderholm. She does a fantastic job of breaking down Sonny's skills for her students. Sonny wasn't that old in this video, just his mid-50's. That's still prime for doing these arts.

No, I never traveled with Sonny. It's funny I just read your comment today. Last week I met someone new who knew Sonny from the old days (1980's).

Hey Stickman, I know you knew Sonny very well. Were you at this Demo in Germany?
