Tony Jaa THE MUAY TAI WARRIOR


Tony Jaa studied and trained rather extensively in the ancient form of Muay Boran. Jaa is 5' 8" [68 inches/173 centimeters] tall. His taste in films are obviously linked with martial arts; ANYTHING with Bruce Lee, Jet Li or Jackie Chan, but Jaa insists that his two all-time personal favorite films are Fists of Fury and Police Story. Tony Jaa once worked as a stunt double for actor/martial artist Robin Shou in the film adaptation of the popular video game Mortal Kombat 2. The entire production budget for Jaa's film Ong Bak Warrior was a little over $3 million US dollars [not much at all compared to Hollywood's martial arts films].
