Hes only 55

Apparently has some medical conditions. Some people get luckier than others. Pat Summit is a good example.

Unfortunately, yes, it happens even to my favorite martial artist Jackie Chan.

He was great in The Foreigner

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Yeah hyperthyroidism

I don't think it would be unbelievable if he were older than 55 but I don't know

Yeah Jackie got old but he was still bad ass in The Foriegner

 

[Chris Craig]

I don't think it would be unbelievable if he were older than 55 but I don't know

Yeah I wondering if we are being messed with here...he looks 70 or 80 there

He was. I watched the movie in theater in China before it came to the states.

Too bad we won't see him doing the same stunts he did in his prime. He is truly a bad ass!

 

[BigGameDamian]

He's still doing Expendables 4?

Jet Li? No he had to retire because of his health

 

[Natebishop3]

It's crazy what health issues can do.

My dad went from a pretty young looking guy for his early 60s, to currently looking like he's 85 after lung cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. It aged him almost over night. He's 68 now and he's tiny, he's brittle, and he looks 20 years older than he should.

 

[riverman]

It's not the years, it's the miles

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

 

[Chris Craig]

Terrible

 

[MARIS61]

It's not the years, it's the miles

It's the luck of the draw.

 

[Chris Craig]

It's the luck of the draw.

True. Some people age very well...look years younger than they are for ages. Some people age the opposite. Damn genetics.

Jackie did his own stunts and it's expected for him to carry those injuries into his aging body.

Yeah he broke a lot of bones and put his body on the line for many years and many films.

 

[LeeRC]

Sucks about his health but I wonder if there are better photos.

Bad lighting, shaved head, body positioning, and old man glasses could make anyone look bad.

For reference, here's one of him a few days earlier but with a hat to cover his shaved head and him walking upright:
