Chances are good that this film is real. Pujol was the highest paid performer at the Moulin Rouge for almost 20 years. A doctor and a couple of nurses were in attendance at every performance because women wore very tight corsets then and some laughed so hard that they passed out. Le Petomane was a european sensation, sort of like the Michael Jackson of his day. Of course he would be filmed for posterity sake. The Kings of England, Spain and Belgium along with the Kaiser caught his act.
@Garramedia He IS! I have read that the only evidence left from Pujol`s preformance is a few pictures and a few seconds of scilente video! THIS IS THAT VIDEO!!!!!!
Oh, I know Le Petomane was real, but I doubt if this film is. His body language is a little too modern. Also, this film didn't seem to exist until recently; I haven't read anything about a long-lost snippet being found in an archive.
Le film est muet, quel dommage, mais merci mille fois pour ce document inestimable sur l'art de Joseph Pujol ! Qui se souvient encore de cet immense artiste ?
At last, a French contribution to culture. (Okay, and cheese).

@MrJimddddd It is real, you can try a search on Joseph Pujol. He had amazing control of his sphincter muscles.
