I wouldn't be surprised. Lee met a lot of martial artist from a variety of fighting styles. In the process of doing this he traded techniques and applications with them. I almost het to mention this name because of all of the worship he get on yahoo Chuck Norris and Lee worked together on a movie. I'm certain they would have shared things with each other.

Most of the kicks Lee used in movies are frowned upon by Wing Chun teachers as over the top, superflous, too risky or pointless. So most likely he picked them up from watching other martial artists.

It's entirely possible, as Bruce lee always said "no Way is way!" as a concept of basically using whatever works for you, do it, that's how he came to make JKD after all.

From what I know some kicks came from savate & muay thai modified and probably other kicks.
Savate has a lot of kicks like tkd but they are very different except the spinning kicks seem the same.

Interesting. This could be true. But it well documented that Bruce met a lot of other martial artist and that in those meetings they shared martial arts with each other. He could have influence Lee as well as many others too.
