Before Watching The Video Below, A Little Bit Info About Tony Jaa

Tony Jaa is a Thai martial artist, actor, action choreographer, stuntman, director, and traceur. Prior to becoming a leading actor, Jaa worked as a stuntman for Muay Thai Stunt for 14 years, appearing in many of his mentor Panna Rittikrai’s films. His martial arts films are credited with helping to showcase the Thai combat systems of Muay Thai, Muay Boran, and “Muay Kotchasaan” (a fighting style Jaa and Rittikrai developed in 2005). His Thai films include Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior (2003), which was his breakthrough role, Tom-Yum-Goong (2005), Ong Bak 2: The Beginning (2008), Ong Bak 3 (2010), and Tom Yum Goong 2 (2013).
Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior in 2003 Jaa did all the stunts without  mechanical assistance or computer-generated effects and it showcased his style of extreme acrobatics and speedy, dance-like moves. Injuries suffered in the filming included a ligament injury and a sprained ankle. One scene in the film involved fighting with another actor while his own trousers were on fire.
“I actually got burned,” he said in a 2005 interview. “I really had to concentrate because once my pants were on fire the flames spread upwards very fast and burnt my eyebrows, my eyelashes and my nose. Then we had to do a couple more takes to get it right.”
Jaa’s films captured the attention of his hero, Jackie Chan, who asked director Brett Ratner to cast Jaa in Rush Hour 3. “I gave the director videos of Jaa because I think he is the most well-rounded of all action stars,” Chan told the Associated Press. “The director liked him a lot,” Chan said. However, Jaa mentioned that he is unable to participate in the film because of scheduling conflicts with Ong Bak 2.
