Two thumbs for Endoperez and K!
One small comment on mentioned Bruce Lee: Tai Chi was the first MA he studied.

Actually, it can be seen as he often preferred relatively low "half-horse" stance to the high frontal one which he learned later in win-cnun (sp?).

Wing chun?

Quite probably. I don't have English books on subject on hand.
By the way, a practical application of tai chi was shown in the film Shootfighter with Bolo Yeung for those interested.
