Lam Ching Ying lived in a world of his own. He rarely let the outworld into his life. Rarely can we find private photos of him on the Internet. I would like to share with you what I have found.

Working with Bruce Lee
A mysterious game - "Game of Death"
On Kim Tai Jung's official site, he states that he saw 90 mins of Bruce Lee continuous Game of Death film footage back in 1975 with Lam Ying Ching (this did not include any pagoda scenes but Lam stated these were all filmed by Bruce Lee). Lam Ying Ching can be seen playing a karate fighter in outside picture stills against Bruce Lee.
Rumours - Original Unedited Footage (over 4 hours exist)
-Full Original Script by Bruce Lee (100 pages exist)
Original Cast - Bruce Lee, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Ji Han Jae, Dan Inosanto, James Tien, Chieh Yuan, Nora Miao, George Lazenby, Hwang In-Shik, Bob Baker, Bolo Yeung, Lam Ching Ying, Wu Ngan, Lee Quin, Betty Ting-Pei
Personally I think they are all somewhere in Lam Ching Ying's legacy, as he once mentioned that Bruce handed his notes over to him, just before his death!!!

Rare Private Photos

Movie Awards
25th Hong Kong Movie Awards 1983
A fade black and white newspaper cutout. A really unique photo of a smiling Ying.
This is the one and only photo with punctual details. It was took on the 27th September 1992 in Shibuya Pantheon in Tokyo, Japan. At the Tokyo International Fantastic Film Festival Crazy Safari was presented. Lam Ching Ying was the Featival's guest star.

This picture was taken in Hong Kong around October 1987 when Mr. Vampire bacame a huge hit. As I understood a certain Japanese travelling company organized a "Spirit Vision Tour" to Hong Kong. Part of the program was a meeting with the Sifu himself.
This photo I published is collected from a Japanese ladies site. I couldn't get in touch with her. If she contacts me I will do as she wishes: link back or remove it. Thank you!
