How did Bruce Lee die?

On July 20, 1973, the world-famous action movie star Li Liaolong died suddenly at the age of 32. This news shocked all movie fans, and what was even more shocking was that the cause of Bruce Lee's death was an unsolved mystery.

According to Bruce Lee’s lifetime friend, the well-known film director Mr. Zou Wenhuai, at 2 o’clock in the afternoon on July 20, 1973, Zou Wenhuai came to Bruce Lee’s home and the two made some comments on the outline of the script for "Game of Death" comminicate. At 4:30 pm, they came to the home of Ding Pei, another actress in the play. The three of them talked about the script for more than two hours. At 7 o'clock in the evening, when they decided to have dinner at the Japanese restaurant downstairs of the Hyatt Regency Hotel, Bruce Lee suddenly said: "I don't feel well, I have a headache." Ding Pei immediately gave Bruce Lee an aspirin and asked him to go to her bedroom to rest. At about 8 o'clock, Zou Wenhuai left alone because he was going to pick up the male movie star George Lazenby.

At about 8:30 in the evening, Ding Pei went into the bedroom to see Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee was already asleep. She couldn't bear to wake him up, so she called Zou Wenhuai: "He is sleeping soundly now, so we won't go to the restaurant to eat. "At 9 o'clock in the evening, Bruce Lee still didn't wake up, so she made another call to Zou Wenhuai.

At 9:45 pm, Zou Wenhuai came to Ding Pei’s house. Seeing that Bruce Lee was still awake, he tried to wake Bruce Lee up, but Bruce Lee did not respond. Zou Wenhuai pushed him and slapped him on the face, but he couldn't wake up Bruce Lee. Ding Pei had no choice but to call a private doctor named Zhu Bowai. At around 10 p.m., Dr. Zhu arrived and examined Bruce Lee. At that time, Lee was unconscious, had no heartbeat, pulse and breathing, and was on the verge of death.

When another doctor named Deng Baozhi examined Bruce Lee at 11 o'clock that night, he determined that Lee was dead, but still gave him an "intracardiac injection of emergency" with epinephrine. There was no death after the injection. reaction. At 11:30 pm, another doctor, Michael Mai, officially signed Bruce Lee's death certificate, and a superstar fell.

On July 28, the official announced the cause of Bruce Lee's death: brain edema caused by an allergy to painkillers, leading to death. This statement has puzzled experts in the medical field. So far, there is no precedent for death from aspirin allergy in the world. Why did Bruce Lee die suddenly? There were different opinions from all walks of life for a while.

Professor Hawke from the American Medical College believes that in order to pursue the limits of strength and speed, Bruce Lee exercised too hard every day and damaged his body due to his eagerness for quick success and instant gain. In addition, his improper training methods led to blood disorder, and he suffered brain injuries caused by many fighting competitions, all of which were the reasons for his sudden death. The report of the famous American doctor Kneit (Bruce Lee's personal doctor in the United States) also proved Professor Hawke's inference: Bruce Lee was overworked for a long time. After filming "The Way of the Dragon," he fell seriously ill and had to be hospitalized in Los Angeles for examination. After being discharged from the hospital, he proudly announced that his physique was better than that of an 18-year-old boy. However, in fact, he had already suffered from a brain tumor and could only live for two or three months at most. Dr. Kneit said that he was in good health because he couldn't bear to see him suffer a blow, and asked Bruce Lee's family to pay more attention to rest and recuperation. However, Bruce Lee did not take the doctor's words to heart. Finally, Bruce Lee, who suffered from a brain tumor, suddenly became brain-dead due to an allergic reaction to the drug after taking aspirin. Kneit speculated that Bruce Lee's brain tumor was caused by excessive training, overexertion, and accumulated brain problems.

Just when the public was gradually accepting Dr. Kneit's "brain tumor theory", Bruce Lee's wife Linda revealed to the outside world that Bruce Lee had many grievances. In the entertainment industry, Bruce Lee had conflicts with some actors, and also fell out with several directors over script issues. Especially after he defeated the Japanese karate champion in 1971, the Japanese martial arts community hated him even more. Therefore, public opinion circles believe that the possibility of murder cannot be ruled out in Bruce Lee's death.

Bruce Lee's personal assistant, Hasson, was also skeptical of the "brain tumor theory". He said that after filming "Way of the Dragon", Bruce Lee did go to the Los Angeles Hospital for a physical examination. But he didn't do a brain exam.

Bruce Lee trained hard, increased the load, and tried to make breakthroughs in muscles. He was always looking for fitness equipment that could effectively help muscle training. Later, on the recommendation of his assistant Fate, Bruce Lee began to try this muscle concussion machine.

In this private detective's conjecture, all this is the conspiracy of the "Yamaguchi-gumi". They bought Fat with a lot of money. During the trial period, the oscillation frequency of the machine was within the normal range. After Bruce Lee decided to use the machine, Fatt replaced it with another specially made machine. Subsequently, Bruce Lee's muscles became very strong in a short period of time, but the damage inside his body, especially his brain, gradually and unknowingly worsened, paving the way for his sudden death a year later.

When Dr. Cherry was entrusted by Hazen to conduct research and analysis on the cause of Bruce Lee's death, the Japanese were afraid that his conspiracy would be exposed, so they sent people to the doctor's home to coerce and induce him, first promising a large amount of money, and then using the doctor's Threats to his family's lives caused the doctor to give up publishing his research conclusions.

Just after this claim was rejected by experts as lacking evidence, an American reporter claimed to have met Fate, who was once Bruce Lee's assistant, in Tokyo, Japan. After meeting an acquaintance, Fat, who was dressed luxuriously, looked extremely nervous and left in a hurry. Dr. Kneit, who proved that Bruce Lee had a brain tumor, died in a traffic "accident" two months later.
