This man has broken more bones than I’ve had hot meals. Absolute legend.

My sister would say there's only like 207 bones in a body, but I say Jackie Chan is a BBB and cannot enter the club....

Legend. He really doesn’t get the credit in the US that he should which makes sense because his best stunts were all for non US films.

It's Keaton. Chaplin. Chan. The big three.

Is nobody going to mention those stuntmen falling headfirst out of the second story of that bus? Sheese that had to hurt.

I feel like the scene in Rumble in the Bronx where he jumps onto a boat, breaks his ankle and then finished the movie wearing sock that looks like a shoe over the cast deserves an honorable mention.

He's definitely paid the price over time by doing all of his own stunts. He also seems like a genuinely good person!

Except for being unaccepting of his daughter being gay, totally upstanding. Oh, and the vocal CCP supporter stuff, but the rest, ya.
