Did Bruce Lee beat up 40 people?

Seeing that YA is about to shut down I may as well ask this question now (should have done it a long time ago). A long time ago someone told me back in high school that Bruce supposedly took on 40 people at once and came out on top. A longtime friend told me that it wasn't literally 40 people that he fought. Something like that would have been impossible even for Bruce Lee he tells me. According to him it was actually 5 - 6 really good masters who challenged him once. Saw a video on Youtube that talks about the former incident but not the later. 

Any info on this would be appreciated. Thanks in advanced and sorry that YA is going to close. This was my ''go to'' answer site for the longest time.

Good bye. 

Update:

Meant to say I saw a video on Youtube that talks about the ladder incident. Not the former lol. 

Update 2:

    There are a ton of claims about Bruce Lee and no proof of many of them. He did test his skills against others in primarily friendly matches, and he was very talented. All you can really do is ask yourself how many of the stories that don’t have proof sound too good to be true.
