Puzzle Description:

Jackie Chan was born in 1954 in Victoria Peak, Hong Kong (then a British Overseas Territory), as Chan Kong Sang (meaning "born in [Hong] Kong") to Charles and Lee-Lee Chan, refugees from the Chinese Civil War. He was nicknamed Pao Pao (literally meaning "Cannonball") because he was always rolling around as an infant.

Really nice image, Petra. Just the right amount of challenge too.

I really like this puzzle. I especially like the stylized face and the lack of a distinct line alongside the face.

This looks more like Bruce Lee than Jackie Chan.
#9: Petra Lassen (Stjarna) on Feb 24, 2009
LOL I disagree!

I was in the middle of this puzzle when my husband walked by and said, "That's Bruce Lee." My son has a t-shirt with a very similar (if not the same source) graphic of Bruce Lee. I can't find one on-line, but here's another picture of Bruce - http://www.flickr.com/photos/8817873@N07/569463010/

and here's Jackie for comparison - http://www.jackiechan.com/
I gotta go with Bruce.

I actually thought it was Syler from Heroes at first. But when it was done I can see Jackie Chan. :)

I love it! Petra I really like your puzzles! Can you do more?
#14: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on May 25, 2009
Nope. Apparently she can't. :-)

Sorry all. I've been away for a loooong time, the last 4 weeks on rehab for my rheumatism in Montenegro (former Yugoslavia) and the internet connection was lousy so I couldn't even play webpbn. Now I'm home for a few days but I'll be leaving for the US in less than 5 days. I get back a couple of weeks later, a friend comes and stays with me for a week and then I plan 2 weeks holiday with my mom nad my kids.

Welcome to my life.

Oh, and I get to work 40 hours a week, too. At least 40 hours. Lucky me.

So honestly, I haven't had much time to make puzzles but I WILL be back once life slows down and my head stops spinning!

Petra, it sounds like you really need the R&R. I hope you enjoy your visit in the US and your holiday time with your family.
