Kareem appeared with Bruce Lee in the 1973 flick,"Game Of Death",and many people to this day still don't know that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar became a very good,accomplished martial artist under the direction of Bruce Lee and certain aspects of Bruce Lee's JKD system.

I was never sure if Jabbar ever learned any of the joint locking,pinning,throwing,submission locks,or grappling aspects of Bruce Lee's system,but he was very good at punching and especially kicking with those Huge Size 22 feet of his!

Two very different body types there.

One thing about Dan Blocker, he wasn't really tall. I've seen him on Gunsmoke with James Arness and The Rifleman with Chuck Connors and both tower over him. He might have been 6-0 or 6-1.
