Chow Yun Fat Gives Scheduled Talk Even After a Fall Which Led to a Hairline Fracture

The talk lasted for an hour and he talked about his film career and life.
He also brought up the tripping incident that happened a day before.
During the fall, Chow had scraped his palms and suffered a hairline fracture to his left rib.
He was told to stop physical activities for at least two months.
Had Difficulty Breathing and Laughing
It reportedly wasn’t easy for Chow Yun Fat during the talk.
He appeared to have difficulty breathing.
And whenever he laughs and coughs, it hurts.
The audience was reportedly moved by how Chow turned up despite his condition.
“Adversity Can Make You Stronger”
Chow said that sharing his experience with the youth was his way of giving back to society.
That sense of responsibility was what pushed him to attend the event despite the pain.
Speaking to the students, he advised that life is full of ups and downs, just like running.
Don’t give up when encountering setbacks because “adversity can make you stronger”.
“You can find a role that suits you, and you can be successful if you learn from your experiences.”
Remember, there is no miracle in this world, he said, only the accumulation of knowledge and experience.
