At 70, Jackie Chan remains a global icon, but his recent appearance at the Australian Open finals on January 25 had netizens buzzing—for unexpected reasons.
The Hong Kong action star was spotted in the crowd, and while many were thrilled to see him, others couldn’t help but comment on his aging appearance. Some pointed out that his eyelids looked “heavy” and that he appeared “tired.” But did they forget he turns 71 in April?
Despite the chatter about his looks, Jackie quickly reminded everyone why he’s a legend. In a video posted by the Australian Open’s social media page, he was seen in a gym effortlessly twirling a baton before executing lightning-fast strikes. When he handed the baton to another man, it became clear just how unmatched Jackie’s skills remain.
He also demonstrated his famous party trick—placing a piece of candy in his open palm, giving his arm a quick smack, and sending the candy flying into his mouth. His companion managed to pull off the trick too, earning applause and a hug from Jackie.
Fans were quick to praise him, with one commenting, “Jackie really knows how to make friends,” while another noted, “This shows just how popular Jackie is worldwide.”
While time may pass, one thing is certain—Jackie Chan’s legendary skills and charisma are here to stay.
