    Some of the feats may be he but some have eyewitnesses. If more than three I generally accept. Such as finger thru Coke can…700 lb bag he could really move it .. today’s kickers can’t budge it. It’s in Dan Inosanto gym so anyone can test it. Dan has top respect over decades.He is a witness to what Bruce could do to 700 lb bag. Same with smaller heavy bag slapped to ceiling.
    One feat is with Silliphant Oscar winner.ex fencer he assumed he would be ok with real knife Lee handed him. At first joking but then he got serious. “Bruce could kick me at will..my hand, leg, head!” He also said Lee could kick the ceiling he was a human panther.
    See James DeMile interview Temple of the Unknown / YouTube…
    There was one interview I read…I haven’t read it anywhere else…maybe others can verify. AAAU coach said a test on a helmet with a sledgehammer. The helmet withstood the blows. Bruce punched it with bare fist and caved it in. This is unbelievable except for his proven kicking power..
    Also many witnesses that he could lock out straight a 80 lb dumbbell with one hand for 20 seconds. Joe Lewis said he knew heavyweight lifters who couldn’t do that.
