Is this boy a reincarnation of Bruce Lee?

Maybe, if you believe in that.

In a video posted on Youtube on 1 May, Ryuji Imai, a 5-year-old Japanese boy, perfectly executes Bruce Lee’s famous nunchaku fight moves from the movie Game of Death.

The clip has since garnered over 4 million views.

In the video, Imai is seen executing the moves with a nunchaku, completely in sync with Bruce Lee in the movie, which plays on a television behind him.

Nunchaku is a traditional Japanese martial arts weapon, consisting of two sticks connected by a short chain, or rope.

Imai is a big fan of Bruce Lee, according to the description on the Youtube video.

Scrolling through Imai's Facebook page, one can see just how big a fan the little boy is of the late Hong Kong-American martial arts legend.

The page, which has more than 19,000 followers, showcases videos of him training in martial arts routines and pictures of him posing in a "come-and-get-me" stance.

ABC News even had a feature on him, with the anchor commenting on his impeccable skills, “Is that not the most incredible thing you’ve ever seen?”
