Not as famous as Bruce Lee, Leung Ting is nevertheless still a former student of the late and enigmatic Ip Man who popularised the art of WingTsun (also known as Wing Chun) and whose life story was the toast of Chinese cinema late last year.

Above: WingTsun master Leung Ting (right) during a demonstration at an overseas class.

Low-key Leung still has a class, held every Saturday night inside a nondescript building in Yau Ma Tei, Hong Kong, although since he is in his 60s, no longer attends in person.

To mark the 35th anniversary of Bruce Lee’s death, the History Channel will air a new two-hour documentary, HOW BRUCE LEE CHANGED THE WORLD on May 10th, 2009 at 8pm ET.

Produced in cooperation with Lee’s family, this documentary looks at how the actor and martial artist’s legacy has shaped and influenced the world since his death.

From the History Channel press release:

He was able to perform superhuman physical feats that have yet to be equaled, such as a two fingered push-up and a lethal blow called the one-inch punch.

Since his death, Lee has been recognized as a visionary who changed not just action movies and martial arts, but an icon that created this very simple image that is endlessly reproducible to this day. From his role as Kato on television’s “Green Hornet” to his groundbreaking debut film “Enter the Dragon,” Lee blew up the stereotype of how Asian characters would be portrayed on screen forever. With no one able to fill the void after his death, a rash of Bruce Lee look-alikes and copycat films emerged inspiring a whole new film genre.

A cinematic journey, this special takes the viewer across the US, Asia and Europe exploring Lee’s influence on popular culture worldwide— even joining Shannon Lee on a trip back to her father’s roots in Hong Kong; nearly fifty years after Lee arrived to make his first kung fu film. HOW BRUCE LEE CHANGED THE WORLD also features in-depth interviews with actor Jackie Chan, comedian Eddie Griffin, rappers LL Cool J and RZA, Marvel Comics’ Stan Lee, and renowned film directors John Woo and Brett Rattner among others. Lee’s friend and business partner famed Hong Kong film producer, Raymond Chow gives a rare interview.

If Bruce Lee smoked, this would be his lighter. Its a flame lighter contained in one end of a chrome metal pair of nunchuks.

Not that he would have smoked of course. But then the other stick contains a flashlight which he wouldn’t need either since he could see in the dark as well as punch within an inch.

The flame lighter nunchuck is 9 1/4 inches full length.
