Considering he was in his mid fifties, he really took one for the team.

To the OP, OMG yes! Couldn't agree more!That's the funniest part of the whole movie to me. LOL I rented it On Demand last week, and that's one of my fav parts. LMAO I crack up everytime I watch that part. Hilarious!

You know, that was the one thing that stuck with me the most from when I first saw this movie as a kid. Nobody could do 'em like Buster. And, yes, he continued to take falls right up until his last movie at age 70.

Buster Keaton was really the best when it came to pratfalls.

Terrific comedian!

He was quite a cutie in the twenties, too.
