    Lot of folk my age (ie, me) couldn't do that stuff. That's pretty awesome.

    I really can't believe how old he is, I wonder how well he can fight.

    Probably not well at all... But probably fantastically for a guy of over 90 as he appears in fine shape... which is really the point I think.

    Good for him! I find the old masters (along with women) tend to be some of the best, as they can't use brute force. They will show you how to do techniques the right way!

    Are you sure he's not some young guy wearing actor's makeup to look old? ;)
    Dude can move. I'm impressed with his fluidity. He looks almost like a dancer. I want to move like that when I'm 91.

    I've no doubt he wouldn't be the guy who falls over when he throws his 1st punch as we've seen in youtube octagenarian fights!

    Probably clean out the whole Senior Citizens' activity room.

    As a former Fu Hok practitioner that was really nice to see. Well,except for the cartwheel.

    Showoff.

    Awesome. Dude's a badass ninety-one-year-old. I hope I'm in that sort of health at that age.

    Also, I'm really glad there were subtitles. Totally cleared up what he was saying.

    I remember seeing a 70 year old master performing a few sets when I was starting kungfu. Impressive. Seeing a 91 year old perform to the same level, pretty damn amazing.

    There are some tough old geezers out there.
