Congratulations to the Winners!

Rabbit and Monkey Riddle Winner: Kirstin Hinterleuthner from Germany

Jimmy Muro Question Winner: Kai Cheung

In a recent diary entry, Jackie told a riddle and invited his fans to send in their answers. He also asked a question about one of the crew members of Rush Hour 3. For both questions, Jackie offered a prize to the person who could guess the correct answer. Wow! So many people emailed to take a guess! We have gone through all the emails and have chosen the winners from among those who sent in the correct answers.

The riddle Jackie told was this: There is a monkey and a rabbit. Each thinks he is cleverer than the other. The rabbit said, “I know a place where I can sit, but you can’t.” The monkey said, “No, way, I can sit anywhere I want. I can climb a tree, and sit on a branch. There’s not one place in the world that I can’t sit.”

Jackie's answer:  The monkey can't sit on his own back, but the rabbit can sit on the monkey's back.

The Jimmy Muro question:  Why does Rush Hour 3's Director of Photography Jimmy Muro wear a black head covering?

The answer: To prevent his blonde hair from being reflected in the glass windows on the set.

We tried to think of some really cool prizes for this contest, so we went and raided Jackie's closet. Actually, we raided the storage room where the wardrobe from Rob-B-Hood is kept:

We chose two of Jackie's shirts from the movie to present to the winners:

For Kirsten:

Thank you to all the fans who sent in their guesses. There were a lot of creative answers to the Jimmy Muro question and many of you correctly guessed the rabbit/monkey riddle. We chose the winners from among those of you who guessed correctly.

We hope you've enjoyed this contest and we're sure that you'll see more like it in the future. Of course, we can't always offer pieces of Jackie's wardrobe as prizes since there is a limited number of his costumes. The shirts that we have chosen for prizes in this contest have duplicates. When filming a movie, there are several copies of the most-used pieces of wardrobe. Therefore, Jackie owns several of each of these shirts, but all were used in the production of Rob-B-Hood, including the ones we have awarded as prizes.  

Winners: please email to webmaster [at] jackiechan [dot] com so we can send you your prize.
