After recovering from the shock, the second thing that would come to my mind is a saying that my big brother, Sammo Hung, once said: 'being able to grow old is a fortunate thing,’” he said, adding that “for us stunt people, we don’t know how lucky we are to be able to grow old.” Chan acknowledged the care and concern over his health and cleared doubts by revealing the truth behind his weak appearance. “I want to take this opportunity to let everyone know, don’t worry! It’s just a character appearance for my latest movie. The character requires me to have white hair, a white beard, and look old,” he admitted.
