It can't get any more inspirational than this...

A TEENAGER with 95 percent burns covering his body once felt like a “monster” but is now chasing his modelling dreams.

Meet Abbas Alizada aka “Afghan Bruce Lee” (10 Photos + Videos)

Wow. Bruce Lee's doppelganger for sure!

“I want to be a champion in my country and a Hollywood star,” says Abbas Alizada as he’s swirling nunchakus at Kabul’s desolate Darulaman Palace, a place where he trains twice a week. He is one of ten kids in his family and he bears an uncanny resemblance to the late martial arts legend, Bruce Lee. Thanks to the internet and TV, and his recent success at a martial arts tournament in Kabul, (all which were practically unheard of until the toppling of the Taliban after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks), Alizada is rapidly gaining fame.

“The only news that comes from Afghanistan is about war. . . . I am happy that my story is a positive one,” Alizada said.

From the ruins of an iconic bombed-out palace above Kabul, the young Afghan man bearing a striking resemblance to kung fu legend Bruce Lee is high-kicking his way to Internet fame, aiming to show another side to his war-weary nation.
