Written by Old Bluffer 2nd Jun 2005

Riggs (Mel Gibson) and Murtaugh (Danny Glover) work as a team to try and defeat their diminutive triad foe.
However, any passers-by would almost certainly have joined in on the Cantonese team, as at first glance the brawl resembles a grossly unfair mugging.

Wah Sing Ku puts up a pretty good fight though, especially as he probably only weighs about 5 stone, but he is eventually pulverised, stabbed and machine-gunned into enough of a ragged pulp that the policemen win - hurrah!

Memorable catchphrase: "In Hong Kong, you would be *dead*"

Wah Sing Ku was also shot with a machine gun by Riggs (Mel Gibson) while being underwater, that dealt the deadly blow to him.
Comment 2 by 'wolf' (reply to this comment)
Yes, he was shot indeed. That's what pretty much ended the fight that Riggs would have otherwise lost.
Comment 3 by 'old bluffer' (reply to this comment)
Thanks, I've added the "shot" category now.
Comment 4 by 'man in the universe' (reply to this comment)
This death is very discriptive!
Comment 5 by 'Matt' (reply to this comment)
Hmmm... I'd have to say that Jet Li does kick serious ass in this encounter. Unless you're watching the UK version, where most of Jet Li's attacks are cut out because he breaks and/or dislocates his attacker's arms at least once. Also, Li puts up an insanely good fight. Even being implaed on a pole doesn't stop him (even after Gibson twists the pole further in (another thing cut out)), and takes a dozen rounds of AK 47 rounds to finish him. I think the write-up needs to be altered in fairness. Li was not defenceless, he was extremely dangerous threat, made worse when Glover killed Li's brother.

You might want to put the killer as Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson), as he was the one who shot Ku with an AK-47, which was the fatal blow.

Mel & Danny 'both' killed him and he got nailed GOOD, too!
