Proof positive that Buster Keaton was the greatest of the silent film comics. Of course, he didnt always come out of his stunts unscathed. At 4:25, youll see the water tank bit. What Keaton didnt know at the time was that being doused by all of that water actually broke his neck! He didnt find out until several years later, when a doctor x-rayed him and found the fracture. And see if youre clever enough to figure out how he pulled off the trick at 1:53. Ill tell you this, its not a processed shot...its a single take, done live, no edits. ;) https://youtube/watch?v=_J8XM1_rOTg
