We’ve come across this wonderful clip of the wonderful Buster Keaton from his 1920 movie, "One Week".

Buster Keaton was one of the biggest stars of the Silent Film era. From the same "school" of physical comedy as Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd and Fatty Arbuckle, he did all his own stunts. Keep that in mind as you watch this clip. Today we are so accustomed to seeing the fantastic on film through the creation of stunt doubles, camera tricks, special effects or computer generation that it is hard to appreciate the incredible timing and courage that this stunt required.

You won’t see this kind of stunt being done in our days!
