Even during the promotion I told people that I didn't like Rush Hour. The jokes I didn't understand and the fighting, compared to my Hong Kong films was terrible. A lot of people didn't like it. But mostly people did like it, they really liked it. Rush Hour really brought me to the American family audience.

American stuntmen are smart - they think about safety. When they do a jump in a car, they calculate everything: the speed, the distance... But in Hong Kong, we don't know how to count. Everything we do is a guess. If you've got the guts, you do it. All of my stuntmen have gotten hurt.

I know that eventually, I'll have to change my life and my career, but I've got a lot of good years left in me yet.

When I got depressed, I watched Bruce Lee movies. I learned everything from Bruce Lee.

Family is not who's blood is in you, is who you love and who loves you

Being a stunt coordinator, I have to take care not only of myself but I have to make sure everyone is safe.

When I try to speak perfectly then I am not Jackie Chan anymore. Some words sound like I am trying too hard. The whole thing is not me.
