    As a religious person, Johnny Bosch had made many accomplishments in his life. From watching many Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee movies, Johnny began to have a great interest in martial arts. He received the Purple Sash after a year and half of training. In his younger years, he use to be picked on and became a bully, but changed his ways with the assistance of his Kung Fu teacher, James Clark. Later on, his instructor told Johnny about auditions of Saban's incarnation of the Power Rangers (originated in Japan). This popular show was big with the kids in mid 90's (like me, haha). It's well-known for its teenager superheros who saves the planet with their zords. Johnny got the part of "Adam Park" as the black ranger in the second season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and got to show most of his martial arts-mad skills. He stayed for 2 more seasons, Zeo (black ranger) and Turbo (green ranger). After his time on the set of Power Rangers, Johnny moved on to voice acting in anime like Trigun and Akira. He has also starred in his movie "Extreme Hiest" (2001) and directed fight scenes in "Burning Desire". He worked a lot with Alpha-Stunts in film productions. Johnny is currently starring in several anime roles and in a Christian band called, "Eyeshine". :D There ya go. That's Johnny in a nutshell. XD
