12. Fists of Fury The Mid-Air Knife Kick
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFNfkEXSKJg The 1971 film Fists of Fury (aka The Big Boss) was the first major role by Bruce Lee. Its far from his best movie, however it is said to have swung the path of martial arts movies since away from sword play to more hand fighting. Theres the inevitable end of film fight scene with the bad boss and, with the boss and Lee circling each other, the boss decides hes going to throw his final knife. In a moment of pretty awful continuity, that well let slide in this instance, Lee drops to the ground, raises a leg and kicks the knife out of mid-air and straight back into the big bad boss. Its just lucky the knife didnt hit Lee's foot the other way round
