I guess your right about that, but I would also call Lee a hero. I would also call Jackie Robinson a hero. Maybe Chan meant Hero along those lines.

Yeah thats a conspiracy theory, that involves the Triad community. He was challenged by the highest ranked Grandmaster in America(Wong Jack Man) because they felt he was breaking a certain code. Non-Asians were not allowed to know there 1500-ish years of technique and thought. Bruce beat Wong within minutes and kept teaching. I believe the story goes after that they poisened him causing the brain edema.
