The cause of Bruce Lee's death is unknown, and his son suffered another bad luck. Why didn't his friend Stanley Ho help?

If Bruce Lee were alive today, he would be moved to see the ending of Stanley Ho. But that didn't happen. Bruce Lee was ahead of Stanley Ho. Stanley Ho's only son Guo Hao (kwk-Ho) died at the age of 33 20 years after Bruce Lee's unexplained death. Why couldn't Stanley Ho take care of his family as his fame grew?

Bruce Lee, Ho's family

Ho Kai Fook's grandfather, Ho Kai Fook, is a top figure in Hong Kong's richest family one. Stanley Ho has 13 children. The third son, Ho Shi-kwong, is the comprador of Sassoon Foreign Company, and the ninth son is Stanley Ho.

It is worth mentioning that He Qifu’s half-brother He Jiantang is also a giant. Stanley Ho's adopted daughter Ho Aiyu is the second son of Bruce Lee, a well-known overseas kung fu star.

According to this level of relationship, Bruce Lee and Stanley Ho are actually related to some extent. Although they are not related by blood, they are nominally cousins. Even the sons of He Youjun and Xi Mengyao called Bruce Lee "cousin and uncle".

Speculations about Bruce Lee’s death

On July 20, 1973, Bruce Lee passed away in Hong Kong. The cause of death given by the hospital was "cerebral edema." No one could believe that Bruce Lee would die suddenly at the age of 33. In view of the statement given by the hospital, in fact, due to various insurance compensation, and financial problems, they specifically asked the court to determine the direct cause of Bruce Lee's death.

When the medical examiner examined the body's organs and fluids such as blood and urine, he found abnormal congestion in the internal organs and lungs, but no fatal disease.

The judge listed six possible causes of death: murder, homicide, legal homicide, suicide, natural death and accidental death. According to the jury's opinion at the time, six causes of death did not adequately reflect the facts of the case, and Bruce Lee's death was listed as the seventh: unknown cause of death.

In fact, Bruce Lee himself knew that he was dead. When filming "Enter the Dragon", Bruce Lee said to his uncle Shi Jian: "Uncle Jian, I know I won't live long." Bruce Lee also publicly stated many times that "even if I die, I will not regret it." Said his favorite song is "When I Die".

However, no one dared to provoke Bruce Lee in Hong Kong at that time. Former gang leader Chen Huimin once said: "The gangs at that time did not dare to provoke Bruce Lee. His death may be because he was too practiced." Bruce Lee's complicated relationship meant that even the gangsters dared not touch him, let alone Stanley Ho.

Bruce Lee passed away at the residence of actress Ding Pei. Although Ding Pei admitted that Bruce Lee died in his own home to take care of Bruce Lee's body, the outside world seemed to hate him because of love, so Bruce Lee fans blamed Ding Pei for his death. Under the influence of public opinion, Ding Pei gradually withdrew from the entertainment industry and married film and television tycoon Xiang Huaqiang.

To sum up, the most likely cause of Bruce Lee's death was his excessive exercise and gradual deterioration of his physical condition, coupled with his own emotional problems and his dependence on drugs to maintain his image, which accelerated his physical decline. The speed of collapse.

The death of Bruce Lee's son

If Bruce Lee's death was an accident, then the death of his son Lee Kwok-hao is no longer considered an accident.

His father, Bruce Lee, died when he was eight years old and he inherited his father's business. He dropped out of school to start his acting career. Li Guohao learned martial arts from his father since he was a child and has great potential to become an international martial arts star. Unfortunately, he died young.

On March 31, 1994, while filming The Crow, Lee was hit by a real bullet fired from a prop gun. He died in the hospital on April 1, 1994, and this film became Ang Lee's last film.

Ang Lee spent $14 million on "The Crow," which he considered his breakthrough film. Had this tragedy not happened, the film might have catapulted Ang Lee to international stardom, just like his father Bruce Lee had done 20 years earlier with 1973's "Enter the Dragon."

Of course, the actor who shot the bullet was innocent, but no one was responsible for the death of Li Guohao, but the police did not want to pursue too much, and many aspects should have been checked without checking. The death of Li Guohao was related to that of his father Bruce Lee. Death is more like a murder than death.
