Robert Wall (a.k.a. "Bob Wall", born 22 August, 1939 in California) is an American actor who specialised in martial arts.
He featured in a number of films, most notably two appearances with martial arts master Bruce Lee. Bob Wall appeared in the film Way of the Dragon with Lee, along with Chuck Norris. He also starred in Lee's most famous film (in the western world) Enter the Dragon. He later appeared in Game of Death, the Bruce Lee's uncompleted film re-cut in 1978. The film is widely disowned by Bruce Lee fans, and is considered a cruel joke. Bob Wall, among others who participated in this film claiming to be close friends with Lee, are often criticized for insulting his legacy.
Trivia
- During the making of Enter The Dragon it is said he never quite got along with Bruce Lee and at the fight on the parade ground where he smashed the bottles the attack at Lee was more then just a managed fight. Wall and others, however, deny these allegations stating the whole event was blown out of proportion.
