If you have never seen a Jackie Chan film before, you are in for one wild ride. They are a unique blend of visual comedy, incredible stunts and electrifying fights. What makes them so special is that Jackie performs all of his own stunts, no matter how crazy, no matter how dangerous. And they are dangerous. In the course of his career Jackie has broken nearly every bone in his body and come within a hair's breadth of death...No one will insure him.

See! Jackie fall from a tall building. Handcuffed...
See! Jackie drive through a town. Literally through the town...
See! Jackie run down the side of a building. While it is falling down...
See! Jackie leap from the top of a car park.. Onto a balcony across the road...
You'll laugh. You'll gasp. You'll wince. You've never seen anyone like Jackie Chan.
