Promoting their new book about Bruce Lee, Simon & Schuster have put out an amusing video about Bruce Lee’s Jewish ancestry.
Bruce’s great-grandfather Mozes Hartog Bosman left Rotterdam, Holland and his butcher shop, to end up as the Dutch ambassador to Hong Kong.

He bought a Chinese concubine, and had six children with her. Mozes went bankrupt and abandoned his family for California, but his six children grew up to be the richest men in Hong Kong.
Mozes’ son Ho Kom Tong fathered Grace Ho. Grace maried Li Hoi Chuen, and they had five children, the fourth being Lee Jun-fan, aka Bruce Lee.
