VIDEO: Bruce Lee Wins in Ping-Pong with Nunchaks

Text

Video

The YouTube footage shows Bruce Lee beating two opponents in table tennis, playing with not a racket, but nunchaks.

The person and work of Bruce Lee have been revived in a new Nokia commercial for its N96 phone -.--.-Brice Leewhich will be named after this legend of martial arts.

The Bruce Lee edition comes with his face engraved on the phone and in the specially designed box comes an action figure of Bruce and a pair of nunchaks. The N96 is, of course, equipped with all the rest, more practical advantages.

The phone is somewhat pricey, it costs 1,300 dollars, but then, it is Bruce Lee.

Not everybody is thrilled with the commercial. A comment beneath the video says that anybody who falls for this advertising campaign is an idiot.

But there were some “idiots” who liked the advertisement and, most probably, the phone too.

Other people are certain that Bruce Lee is still very much alive, that he faked his own death to finish the game against those who had tried to kill him.

Whether this is good or bad use of a legend is open for discussion, but it did attract a lot of attention.
