== Biography ==
Wall is a former karate champion. Among the martial arts Bob Wall has studied Okinawa-te karate under Gordon Doversola. In 1966, Wall along with karate champion Joe Lewis opened the famous Sherman Oaks Karate Studio in Sherman Oaks, California. In 1968 Lewis sold his share of the studio to Chuck Norris. He is featured in a number of films, most notably three appearances with martial arts master Bruce Lee. He appeared in the 1972 film ''Way of the Dragon'' with Lee, along with Chuck Norris. He then had a major role in Lee's most famous film (in the western world) as O'hara in ''Enter the Dragon'' in 1973. He later appeared in ''Game of Death'', Bruce Lee's incomplete film re-cut in 1978, and played small roles in Chuck Norris films, such as ''Code of Silence'' (1985), ''Firewalker'' (1986) and ''Hero and the Terror'' (1988). More recently, in 2009, Wall starred as a bodyguard in the film ''Blood and Bone''.
While portraying the dreaded O'Hara, an urban legend surrounding the making of ''Enter The Dragon'' claims that he never quite got along with Bruce Lee and that the fight on the parade ground where he smashed the bottles was more than just a managed fight. However, Wall and others present at the time deny this story, stating the tale was blown out of proportion and that Wall and Lee were actually good friends.〔(Bob Wall Interview )〕
Wall has studied several arts under many notable masters. They include Judo under "Judo" Gene LeBell, Okinawan Shorin-Ryu under Joe Lewis, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under the Machado Brothers.〔(World Black Belt Inc >> Bob Wall Bio ). URL accessed on April 6, 2010.〕
