Owen Cheung’s Incredible Leap in “Airport Strikers”

By minna March 31, 2020

Just a day before the premiere of TVB’s latest police action drama Airport Strikers <機場特警>, main lead Owen Cheung (張振朗) shared his excitement with viewers on Instagram. He uploaded a teaser clip of himself doing an incredibly high jump, and many Internet users commented that this scene reminded them of Eddie Kwan’s (關禮傑) performance in Ruse of Engagement <叛逃>. At the time, Eddie’s extraordinary leap over a building spurred many viral memes and parodies across the Internet. Owen’s stunt has the potential for virality as well.

As shown in the Airport Strikers video, Owen was pursuing a criminal in a building. During this intense scene, Owen made a superhuman leap off a parking lot to two levels below. The criminal was running down the stairs when Owen grabbed onto him, and they rolled down the stairs together. Showcasing his quick reflexes and strong fitness, Owen successfully pulled off a perfect example of world-class building jumping skills.

Netizens commented that they couldn’t help but be reminded of Eddie’s jump, especially when Owen exaggeratedly glided in the air for a few meters before hitting the ground. Invoking much laughter, netizens said his scene is highly comparable to Eddie’s super leap.
