Jackie Chan, the Hong Kong actor, director, producer, stunt co-ordinator and writer, has appeared in more than 100 films since 1972, including The Big Brawl (USA 1980), Around the World in 80 days (USA/Germany/Ireland/UK 2004), New Police Story (Hong Kong/China 2004) and the three films in the Rush Hour series (USA, 1998 – 2007). Many of his films include outtakes of stunts that have gone wrong - so far his injuries have included breaking his nose three times, both cheekbones, most of his fingers and his skull.

A certificate was presented to Jackie Chan for this record and for the 'most credits in one movie' during the official launch of his movie 'Chinese Zodiac' (2012), by GWR Greater China President Rowan Simons. Speaking about the achievement, Chan said: "Achieving these Guinness World Records titles is recognition of all my life's work".
