Filmed on European locations including Prague, the film tells an amazing story about a man’s love for his son and more so his selfless effort to preserve innocent lives in the potential of a catastrophic denouement.

Billy’s relationship with the Hollywood entertainment scene goes back to 1983 where he portrayed a character on televisions “The Greatest American Hero” and launched himself into the cult classic role he played in The Karate Kid.

Not giving away any of the fun viewers will see, Billy says “This is a great video. If you have enjoyed the Karate Kid movie, you are going to love this”. The proof is in the pudding as the video has become a favorite to people logging on to www.youtube.com as well as the homepage for the video itself at www.sweeptheleg.com.
