Subject: Jackie Chan awarded honorary Oscar

Written By: Philip Eno on 09/02/16 at 6:39 am

Action movie star Jackie Chan is to be given an honorary Academy Award for his "extraordinary achievements" in film. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences also voted to give honorary Oscars to British editor Anne V Coates, casting director Lynn Stalmaster and documentary maker Frederick Wiseman. Academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs described the recipients as "true pioneers and legends in their crafts". They will be honoured at the Academy's Governors Awards on 12 November.

Call it what it is--they're awarding him for staying ALIVE.

All the injuries that man has sustained, and he can still WALK? Hello! LOL
