    a photo of Hung Ga's Tit Kiu Sam?

    this bio site has a photo that they claim is tit kiu sam. Interesting but is it provable?

    The times of his life does not match the picture of this person.

    A better picture of Tit Kiu Sam, it would be nice to see his forearms and knees.

    This picture is pointless to martial artist. Its just another picture.

    yep just like the supposed Wong Fei Hung picture. Nothing can be gleaned from it in regards to martial arts.

    Greetings,

    The guy in the picture appears to be an amputee. Check for the left arm and notice how the fabric of the jacket hollows out and just hangs.

    I think he's got his hand up under the hem of her skirt, coping a quick ankle-feel...

    Never heard he had a wife.
    Always heard he was involved with some Shaolin monk for a good deal of his life.
    But, here nor there.

    Does it matter to us?
    Kung Fu is good for you.

    According to his family, Tit Kiu Salm died young.

    In his life he did have a wife and kids along with his opium problem.

    He has family in Guangzhou according to Tit Kiu Salm's brother's family.

    Yes, I understand he died because he overtrained a particular gong while still in an addictive state.

    Leung Kwan (Tid Kiu Saam) died at over 70 years of age. He lived from 1815-1887.

    From the outlook of the two persons in the photo, it does fit with the time period of China when Master Leung Kwan lived. Wait a minute, I think I have seen the same photo of the man before.
