The Stunt That Almost Killed Jackie Chan

Jackie Chan has been injured countless times doing his own movie, which has affected his health over the decades. Was it worth the risk? Only Chan can answer that, but that's because he's still alive. One tiny misstep in any of those movie stunts could have spelled his end. 

Half of this video is an overview of Chan's rise to stardom, which is worth the price of admission in itself. Then we get a look at the closest Chan ever came to dying in a film stunt. There is also a minute-long ad in the middle. (via Digg)
