Jackie Chan once feared he had killed someone in a fight.
The martial arts expert was convinced he'd murdered someone after a brawl which occurred when he was just 17.
Jackie, now 54, said: "When I was 17 or 18 I was on the street fighting with three friends and we fought seven people. We beat them all up and then we ran away. After the fight, I was hiding and shaking and I was scared.
"The police car is coming, the ambulance is coming, then I thought, 'Did I kill somebody?' Then, the next day, I looked in the newspaper to see if I had. But in the old days news was not that quick, so I couldn't tell."
Jackie also revealed he enjoyed making movies more when studio bosses allowed him to do perform all his own stunts.
The 'Rush Hour' star - who holds the Guinness World Record for 'Most Stunts By A Living Actor' - added to Maxim magazine: "When we were making films in Hong Kong, we had no money, we didn't have protection. I have to risk my life jumping from building to building. Roll camera, jump, cut and then later on - hospital!
"Today you can't do this because Hollywood has protection. I look back at the old films and even though I got hurt, I'm glad I did it. I chose to do things my own way. It's Jackie Chan's style, risk my life and never give up."
Throughout his movie career Jackie has suffered numerous injuries resulting from stunts that have gone wrong. He has broken his nose, both cheekbones, his neck, several fingers and dislocated his pelvis.
He also has a permanent hole in his head after he fell out of a tree and fractured his skull while shooting 'Armour of God'.
