Asia Wave Slightly Hurts Li

Martial arts actor Jet Li (Hero) injured his foot as he protected his daughter from tsunami waves that flooded his hotel in the Maldives, Hong Kong newspapers reported. Li, who also appeared in such SF films as The One, was with his daughter in the hotel's lobby on Dec. 26 when huge waves gushed into the hotel, the Apple Daily newspaper reported, quoting a friend vacationing with Li, according to a report on the Associated Press.

3. He was saved by the wire harness which he wears 24/7
Right as the tsunami hit, his out-of-frame stunt team yanked on the wires to jerk him to safety.
