Bruce Lee’s marijuana use has been recently well documented, mostly thanks to Matthew Polly’s 2018 biography on the martial arts icon that had him interview at least a hundred of his friends, family, and colleagues. Lee was said to have enjoyed smoking weed and ingesting hashish because “it raises the consciousness level,” but did the actor have a more serious drug habit?
Enter Robert Baker, who started out as a volunteer for the iconic “one inch punch” demonstration in 1964, and would eventually become Lee’s close friend and confidant.
Baker would be known for his role in Lee’s 1972 film Fists of Fury, but according to Polly, he was also “long rumored to be Bruce’s dealer.” The author of Bruce Lee: A Life stated that it was “assumed by many” that Bob, as he was called, simply supplied the actor with marijuana.
Recently released private letters between the two seem to suggest that it was much more than that.
Heritage Auctions has since authenticated and put up various memorabilia from Bob Baker’s Bruce Lee collection on sale, which includes over 50 letters that Bruce and his wife, Linda sent him through the years. Most of them were handwritten, and many used Lee’s personal Jeet Kune Do letterhead stationeries.
These personal correspondence discussed various topics such as their developing friendship, plans for their film careers, and Lee’s back injuries. Perhaps more striking, it also contains numerous references to drugs, including marijuana as well as cocaine.
The handwritten letters allegedly document different instances of Lee trying Baker’s “holy stuff,” recovering from their get togethers, and having nights out with “little recollection of what had happened.”
So, what I take from this is Bruce would have trained in Stockton with the Diaz bros.?
B, b, but… his daughter, who knew him for about 4 years of her life, while she was still taking naps and learning to not shit in diapers, says that her father–who cheated on her mother more than once and was allegedly with his mistress in bed when he died-- was an amazing man that faggot Tarantino shouldn’t use as a basis for his fictional character in his fictional movie and white men need to stfu and stop trying to tell her about her dad (again, a guy she “knew” as an infant and toddler) because he dealt with racism or some shit. You expect us to believe he was a pothead and coke head? How fucking dare you…?
Anyone who has seen the “be like wataaahhhh my friend” interview has to already know that guy tripped his balls off on multiple occasions.

Let this be a lesson kids, no matter how good of friends you are with your drug dealer, eventually you will end up fighting him…
BREAKING NEWS: Rich Famous Person Did Drugs!
Surprising based on his image, not surprising at all outside of that.
Well, his daughter bitches about poor old Bruce in the US of A, instead of moving back to China. So I guess it runs in the family to be a twofaced fuck.
