Phillip Kwok's injury???

[KUNG FU BOB]

Hey guys, I've got a question that I know somone on this board can answer:

How did Phillip Kwok lose parts of the fingers of his left hand?

The reason I ask is, I just finished a painting of him, and when I showed my wife she said "Wow, I really love it. But what's with his hand? Why did you make it look like some kind of flipper or something?" :confused:

I told her that he had fingers missing from a real-life injury, and that it was not just a matter of sloppy artwork. At first she thought I was just pulling her chain (yeah, she's on a chain...so?), but then she asked me how it happened. "Did he lose it during a stunt, or a poorly choreographed swordfight?" I blurted out that he lost them when his brother accidentally cut them off with an axe. But then I didn't want to Ric Meyer her, so I admitted that this was what I vaguely remember hearing, but wasn't sure. Of course I said I'd find out, and she said "That's okay, I don't care that much about it".:p But now I'm curious. I don't know where I heard that, or if it's right. Anybody know for sure?

According to himself in an interview, he lost them while operating some heavy machinery.

I'm quite certain that October 21st 1951 is correct. I doubt he was as old as 33 when filming 5 venoms, and hkcinemagic.com also has this birthdate.

Yo Endsang, thanks Man! Also, that interview was sweet. And I followed that link to the Lo Meng interview which was also great. I remember Bobby Samuels and Rick Hopkins telling me some cool stories about hanging with Lo Meng (both on and off the set). They had nothing but good things to say about him. I thought he was tremendously nice when I spoke to him, and hope to see him again someday.

Teako, love those pics!

Dont feel bad. He was mostly shot at angles where you would not notice.
