00:30But behind the fame lies a story most fans have never heard.

00:35Until now.

00:37Many people think Jet Li was simply born gifted, or that his Hollywood fame came easily.

00:43Some believe his movements are exaggerated for the screen or enhanced by wires.

00:48Others assume his success was built on flashy choreography alone.

00:52But these assumptions ignore the grueling reality.

00:57Years of relentless training, personal sacrifice, and even political pressure.

01:03To truly understand Jet Li, we need to go beyond the myths and uncover the man who lived through them.

01:09Jet Li began training in Wushu at the age of 8, under strict government programs in China.

01:16He practiced 8 hours a day, 7 days a week.

01:19By 11, he won his first national championship, against adults.

01:25He was later asked to perform for U.S. President Richard Nixon, who jokingly offered him a bodyguard position.

01:32What most fans don't know is that Li suffered multiple injuries during his career

01:37and lived with a hyperthyroid condition that threatened his health.

01:41Despite these setbacks, he kept going,

01:43driven by a deep belief in martial philosophy, inner peace, and self-mastery.

01:49One story goes that he trained silently in seclusion for weeks,

01:54just to master a single breathing technique used in Fearless.

01:58Perhaps the most astonishing revelation?

02:03because the producers wanted to control the image of his martial arts.

02:08He refused to compromise on authenticity,

02:11even if it cost him millions.

02:15not just as a martial artist, but as a man of principle.
