I was surfing youtube today and came across these Hong Kong commercials from the 80s. They make me laugh and feel sad at the same time.

Do you recognize this guy?

I actually thought by drinking Libogen I would be able to kick ass like this dude.

I seem to remember a lot of period piece Kung Fu in the commercials back then.

This one isn't, technically, a Hong Kong commercial but it's set in Hong Kong.

I like the martials arts access to the ATM. Are they trying to get his card, his money, or himself? Anyway, if I had to surmount that obstacle every time I needed $$$$ my savings would definitely not be whittled away as quickly.
