Was there a particular sort of martial arts trick
or move you had to learn that you had to do
like a thousand times?
Is there anything that was, like, a little tough for you to,
to wrap your head around?
It was all easy.
The most difficult sequence for me was the wooden dummy
sequence in episode one,
partially because,
we couldn't really hide with a stunt man in that.
In that one. So-
Do you wanna explain it a little bit
so that people know what you're talking about?
It's Wing Chun and he's practicing his punches
and blocks on a dummy, a martial arts dummy,
which it's just like a, it looks like a tree trunk with,
with wooden branches sticking out
and they're meant to be arms and legs.
And so it's a practice mode
and so he's getting a workout on
and that was a tough sequence to memorize.
And it's an extremely intricate discipline. Yeah.
Very interesting. It looked like you were
working out the dummy, not the other way around.
Thank you, my man.
Yeah, you kicked some ass.
