Terrific video of Buster Keaton. Incredible stunts in a pre-CGI world. Just some amazing clips; I honestly don't know how he did some of this stuff.

That was *cool*! I'd never heard of the fellow before, which is no surprise given the evident vintage of the film. As to how he did it -- the man was a talented gymnast and acrobat, but if you watch full screen you'll see where there was camera trickery without CGI. Different camera speeds, split screens, and hidden wires. Still magical though! :D
