John Wayne’s 350 lb. bodyguard attacked Bruce Lee — then watched him get crushed
(AI Bruce Lee Diaries) Backstage at a Hollywood soundstage in 1972, Bruce Lee arrived for a quiet studio meeting. What he didn’t expect was a challenge from a massive former Marine — the personal bodyguard of John Wayne.
The man believed real combat training made movie martial arts useless. Fifteen minutes later, only a handful of crew members would witness what really happened.
In this true behind-the-scenes story, discover how Bruce Lee — the star audiences knew from The Green Hornet — was openly mocked and tested in front of Wayne himself.
The 350-pound bodyguard thought size, strength, and Western military experience guaranteed him victory. What Bruce did next shocked everyone in the room — including "The [Grand] Duke."
This isn’t just another Bruce Lee legend. It’s the moment when raw Western power collided with a real Eastern understanding of movement, timing, and control — and when one of Hollywood’s toughest men learned that fighting isn’t about who’s bigger, it’s about who understands more.
For decades, this quiet backstage confrontation between Bruce Lee and John Wayne’s bodyguard stayed out of the spotlight. Now, the full story of how a 350-pound former Marine was taken down — twice — can finally be told.

The Yonaguni Monument (Japanese 与那国島海底地形) refers to Yonaguni-jima Kaitei Chikei, literally, "Yonaguni Island Submarine Topography," possibly a remnant of the Land of Mu (mythical lost continent).
The manmade structures are also called the "Yonaguni (Island) Submarine Ruins" or 与那国（島）海底遺跡, Yonaguni-jima Kaitei Iseki.
This submerged rock formation rests off the coast of Yonaguni, the southernmost of the Ryukyu Islands, in Japan. It lies approximately 100 kilometers (62 miles) east of Taiwan. More: Yonaguni
Where is Yonaguni?
Yonaguni (Japanese 与那国島, Hepburn Yonaguni-jima, Dunan-chima, older Juni-shima [2], Yunoon-zïma, Yunaguni-jima), one of the Yaeyama Islands, is the westernmost island of Japan [3], lying between the East China Sea and the Philippine Sea.
A mere 107.4 kilometers (58.0 nmi, 66.7 miles) separate the island from Taiwan at their closest points. It is administered as the town of Yonaguni, Yaeyama Gun, Okinawa, and there are three settlements: Sonai, Kubura, and Higawa.
There have been discussions to establish direct ferry services with Taiwan in order to bolster tourism. More: Yonaguni

Look at a map of the USA. The Gulf of Mexico is shown differently in each. Cuba is massive, as big as Florida, but is often minimized. All maps are politicized, which is odd since we now have low-flying satellites 20 miles up that can photograph and give us a real picture. But all "space photos" are manipulated CGI (computer generated images). They are warped, shrunken, expanded, enhanced, etcetera. There are 50,000-year-old pyramids underwater between the continental U.S. and the island nation. The mainland has Cahokia with its pyramid "mounds" in St. Louis, Missouri. A hop over the Gulf, Mexico has extraordinary pyramids in the Yucatan Peninsula and Veracruz.
Scott Ritter: Israel can't beath Hamas with technological superiority from USA because they are SOFT military
(Sam Crochet)
Dec. 15, 2023: IDF sucks, an all-draftee army of Zionist Jews lied to by their government, the Netanyahu Regime back by super right wing Likud Party.
Sickening dog face dabbed with cosmetic cheerleading genocide
And here is Jewish Zionist extremist influencer Caroline Glick, who has never seen enough killing of Arabs and Palestinians to satisfy her. She is bloodthirsty and a self-proclaimed super patriot for the state of Israel and more draconian methods than have already been used for 50 to 75 years. She will accept genocide but take nothing less than ethnic cleansing, running the Palestinians into the Sinai Desert or the sea. Now she's complaining that U.S. Pres. Joe Biden isn't giving the Israeli government and military enough weapons, enough backing, enough diplomatic protection, enough intel, enough money, enough military engagement. It's never enough. Since it is not enough, she says Pres. Biden has declared war on Netanyahu. Everything comes down to war metaphors.
Inside rural Russia: When military and patriotism are your life | documentary
(ENDEVR) Oct. 15, 2023: Inside Rural Russia | Town of Glory | ENDEVR documentary: A heroic Soviet past and a destitute post-industrial present make the provincial town of Yenya susceptible to the Kremlin's aggressive anti-Western propaganda leading to the militarization of society from kindergarten to pension age.
With few exceptions, Yelnyans raise their children to become good Russian patriots. They don’t mind the eerie, all-encompassing militarization of society [much as Americans do not mind or seem to notice the militarization of the entire planet with hundreds of US military bases all over the world, even in countries that don't want us there].
Filmed over the course of three years, this film introduces Western viewers to the small and prototypical provincial Russian town of Yelnya where people admire Russian Pres. Vladimir Putin for making Russia great again (MRGA).
Yelnya has remained economically marginalized ever since the Soviet Union (USSR) collapsed. But people have regained pride. They believe that Pres. Putin is bringing back glory and power to the Russian nation.
Not many object to the constant propaganda claims that fascism is threatening once again from the US and Europe and that Russia must stand ready to defend itself.

Israel has revealed its own immorality and inhumanity, its own PR and propaganda, its own plans for genocide and settler colonialism. The world is onto Zionism and the war crimes behind this European-style colonial project. #scottritter#hamas#isr

U.S. Marine and U.N. Inspector Scott Ritter seems to delight in Israel's genocidal onslaught of Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem. Will there be a Free Palestine, a separate state, a "two-state solution" or even an eventual "one state solution"? He thinks one or the other is inevitable, even as the IDF attempts to throw the civilians of Gaza into the sea or into the Sinai Desert of Egypt. Now he has "good news" for Hamas. Scott Ritter thinks Hezbollah has taken North Israel and IDF, Israeli militants, must withdraw its troops from Gaza. There is no sign of that in the mainstream media, but there may be on the ground or by Ritter's sources in the U.S. military, spies, aircraft carriers, CIA, NSA, NSC, and other spying drones.

"'From the river to the sea' was invented by the rabid rightwing Likud Party that supports current Israeli PM Bibi Netanyahu. It cries that pro-Palestine peaceful demonstrators sing it, but they wrote it to excuse their genocide against Arabs, Palestinians, Gazans. There is a rightwing in Israel even more bloodthirsty than CIA Asset Netanyahu. Illegal Israeli settlers are glad to kill to steal homes and land. Netanyahu's government hands out automatic weapons for them to do it. And they do.

(Navy Media) VERENIGDE STATEN. This is an eye-opening exploration. UN Weapons Inspector and US Marine Corps Officer Scott Ritter reveals shocking truths about Israel's war on the civilians of Gaza (where there is or was a Hamas) and the West Bank (where there is not now nor previously a Hamas).

The West has not thought Israel's War on Gaza through, with Dr. Haitham al-Haddad
(Islam21c) Oct. 26, 2023: At a time when the world is engrossed in the Israeli war on Gaza, Shaykh [Sheikh] Dr. Haitham al-Haddad provides a much-needed analysis on the state of affairs apart from Israeli disinformation and propaganda.
In this week's Islamic Thought video by Islam21c, Shaykh Haitham delves into a variety of topics including the strategic miscalculations made by the West, the role of the Muslim Ummah, and the broader implications for global order and justice.
Key Takeaways
1️⃣ Israel has already lost its war: Shaykh Haitham evaluates the state of Israel's military efforts, scrutinizing the nation's failure to secure a decisive victory despite superior firepower.
2️⃣ The future of the conflict: An incisive look at where this enduring struggle is heading, considering factors such as international law, geopolitical alliances, and the role of global superpowers.
3️⃣ Existence is resistance: The very existence of Palestinians stands as a form of resistance against the occupation. Shaykh Haitham discusses how, even in the event of an Israeli "win," the nation would find itself isolated, its actions standing in stark opposition to the values of justice and human rights and perceived as respecting neither by the [2 billion strong] Muslim world.
4️⃣ A clash of civilizations? This conflict has far-reaching implications and is increasingly perceived in the Muslim world as a struggle between Western powers and Muslims. The West's selective application of justice has only served to fuel this perception.
5️⃣ A crisis within the Ummah: Shaykh Haitham criticizes Muslim political leaders, arguing that they have failed to represent the Ummah effectively, instead opting to suppress it from within.

(WQ) Do people know what an implosion is? Most do not. It is an explosion. Why? When the pressure outside is greater and a crack forms, the pressurized space collapsing with tremendous force. So forceful is the collapse, the implosion, that it immediately causes an explosion. Try it. Take a fluorescent bulb or better an old TV tube. Set up a high-speed camera. Then make a crack in it with, say, a baseball bat. Now play the tape back in slow motion. See how the tube draws in then immediately, with explosive force, shoots out? That is an implosion, which triggers an explosion. So what happened at the bottom of the sea or below the water at some as yet unknown depth? The pressure outside the submersible capsule got too great. At the bottom, where the Titanic sits, the depth is 4,000 feet. And the pressure is 6,000 lbs. per square inch. That means that one inch of the sub is bearing the weight of two SUVs, and this is true for every inch of the sub. When it cracks -- and it was bound to crack because it was only built to withstand pressure to a depth of 1,300 feet, according to reports coming in. The sub had been used multiple time, each time pressurizing and decompressing it, which would apparently weaken the structure. It would, therefore, not take much to instantaneously cave in and immediately obliterate the contents as the sub descended. It was doomed. And the view from it is bad, very bad, with just one small hole at the tip for everyone to look out of, no seats, and nothing to do but get claustrophobia and cold, in the dark and praying to get through it. Now they've been reborn. Will anyone else be taking the tour?
UPDATE: Five missing after Titanic sub "Titan" disappears in Atlantic Ocean | OceanGate
(Christina Randall) June 20, 2023. As a search and rescue mission continues for a private submersible that went missing while on an expedition to explore the wreckage of the Titanic, more is emerging about its five passengers. Among the confirmed passengers are British businessman Hamish Harding; Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his teenage son, Suleman; and French explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet. Stockton Rush, the CEO of OceanGate, the company that operates the vessel, is also inside it, the BBC reports. OceanGate billed this trip as an opportunity to "become one of the few to see the Titanic with your own eyes." The company said the fee for securing a seat on the vessel was $250,000.00 (a quarter million U.S. dollars), according to its website. The trip was billed as more than mere tourism, however. OceanGate notes that each of its dives has a scientific purpose. More from CBS News: cbsnews.com/news/who-is-o...
Missing Titanic sub has 40 hours of oxygen left says US Coast Guard
(BBC News) June 20, 2023. A tourist experimental submersible (not actual submarine) that went missing on a visit to the wreck of the Titanic with five people on board has just 40 hours of air left, the U.S. Coastguard says.
The search to locate the small, deep-diving vessel is ongoing after it lost contact while diving near the wreckage of the Titanic.
The research vessel Polar Prince lost contact with the crew of the Titan sub an hour and 45 minutes into its dive.
Tour firm OceanGate said it was exploring all options [including discounted prices for future voyages to the bottom of the sea?] to get the crew back safely.
Gallows humor is the worst humor, but sometimes it's the only thing for a tragic situation -- a helpless tragedy as people are dying, and the whole world is helpless to save them. That's capitalism, that's freedom, that's adventure. Climbing Mt. Everest (or the possibly taller K2) involves risks, real risks. That's the thrill, that's the accomplishment Should free agents like OceanGate be stopped because daredevils died? An airline was taken down and the bodies of the deceased never recovered; therefore, we must all stop flying commercially. It's too dangerous! We need regulations, a nanny state, restriction. Let's join forces to end travel by sea, submarine, and airplane. We need to walk and take trains. Wait, no, trains are too dangerous. Just look at Ohio and India. It's foot traffic and bikes, but all bikes must have training wheels attached, and everyone must from now on wear safety helmets. Can ya imagine? So the only question left is, Might they find Osama bin Laden's fake corpse down there? How about that diamond? And how much of a discount are we talking about? It was $250,000.00 a ticket before. Half-price now?

It has steep canyon walls measuring a full 1 mile in height from bottom to top. Its height and depth rivals that of the great Grand Canyon.
Wiki image conceals shore and size of canyon.
It is the largest such submarine canyon along the west coast of the North American continent. It i snot know how it was formed. The only theory allowed is insufficient to explain it, saying it was by a process known as turbidity current erosion.
Many questions remain unresolved regarding the nature of its origins. As such it is the subject of several ongoing geological and marine life studies being carried out by science.
Monterey Canyon begins at Moss Landing, California, which is situated along the middle of the coast of Monterey Bay, and extends horizontally 95 miles (153 km) under the Pacific Ocean.
It terminates at Monterey Canyon submarine fan, reaching depths of up to 11,800 feet (3,600 meters) below surface level at its downstream mouth.
It is a part of the greater Monterey Bay Canyon System, which consists of Monterey, Soquel, and Carmel Canyons.
The canyon's depth and nutrient availability (due to the regular influx of nutrient-rich sediment) provide a habitat suitable for many marine life forms.
The Soquel Canyon State Marine Conservation Area protects a side-branch of the Monterey Submarine Canyon. Like an underwater park, this marine protected area helps conserve ocean wildlife and marine ecosystems. More
