5. Not only fiction, but pretty poor fiction.

A central part of this story is that Bruce Lee died a few months later, in 1974. Bruce Lee actually died on July 20, 1973.

The narative points out that Carradine was in a black suit, but the accompanying fake stills clearly show him in a denim jacket. The set looks nothing like The Tonight Show.

At least the video and channel descriptions point out that it just might be fiction:

Disclaimer: Narrations are dramatized interpretations based on publicly available biographies, interviews, and documented accounts. Some stories are fictionalized explorations of moments that could have happened, inspired by Carradine's documented philosophy and character.
