Member krakatoa1883 Posted June 18, 2010 Member Share Posted June 18, 2010 I don't know the tittle of this 70's classic, or really remember the plot except for one specific thing that takes place during a fighters training. The fighters teacher makes him do push ups with eggs under the palms of his hands, and if he gets tired and smashes them, then he has to eat the eggs as his meal. The master also puts large rocks on his back causing him to smash the eggs each time. After a long time of this, ( I seem to recall that this push up training took months in plot time ) the training fighter is quite sick of always eating eggs as his meal. By the end of his training he has fingers like steel and is so strong that when the rocks are romoved from his back, he floats up into hand stand finger tip push ups. I hope this sounds familiar enough to someone so that they can tell me the name of the film I am searchinf for. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Administrator KUNG FU BOB Posted June 18, 2010 Administrator Share Posted June 18, 2010 That's INVINCIBLE SHAOLIN, a Shaw Brothers film. And the fighter is played by the inimitable Lo Meng. Great movie! And it's getting it's first legitimate USA release real soon. Next month maybe? Look it up on HKFLIX.COM bro, it's (the legitimate region 1 release) from Funmation. Enjoy.

Guest kifaru Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I'm looking for one that has 4 or 5 brothers who each master a style in order to defeat if I remember correctly 5 manchu masters. One brother masters the whip chain, one brother masters crane style, one brother masters the staff. I don't remember the other styles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careful if you go to buy it, there's one that stars Jet Li (also a great film), but the one you want stars Ti Lung and David Chiang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
