This is a clip from the movie Boarding House Blues starring Moms Mabley and an all black cast, from 1948.

@ MrAsavill I'm so glad I finally found this on youtube! Thanks CineGraphic for posting! He is wonderful! Who taught him to dance?

[MrAsavill]

This was my grandfather's older brother, Uncle B.B. is what we called him. Where did you find this video?

@MrAsavill

Was he born this way? I've heard of him but this is the first time I've ever seen him dance. He was quite impressive :)

[carpy1]

What's next? on A Roller Skate?

[SurferJoe1]

Fantastic! 

For his encore, he wins an ass-kicking contest.

I saw short footage of this on a movie. Is him and James Stacy the only famous people who are missing an arm and a leg?

[sharimorgan]

You guys are a MESS!! I keep laughing at your comments EDLEGSIM & CineGraphic and then I have to ask God for forgiveness! LOL I do admire this guy for his courage because some people would not have the courage to dance with one leg and one arm. May Crip Heard RIP. And yawl stop it!! LMBO hahahaha

@bigteetheman

When did he die? I saw him at a show on the south side of Chicago in the 1980s, and he looked to be around 70 years old then, but his act was as good or better than this video. He was great! Also, do you know what his real first name was?

[umajunkcollector]

and I thought Mean Gene the Dancing Machine from The Gnng Show was amazing!

[dranieloffschu]

very inspiring :)

take it away criiieeeip lmfao

[3Hunter7]

Encore!!.

[beavercreekhigh]

he was great. I guess he had a lot of practice.

[twobarbreak]

Crip was a legend in Harlem, and the Andy Kirk Orchestra even wrote and dedicated a song to him.

[EDLEGSIM]

If he was missing his other arm and leg instead, I would say he was "all right."

[CineGraphic]

And if he had no arms or legs, he would be on a roll...

I can't think of anymore options, guess I'm stumped!

[asmilesa]

If his leg was amputated at the knee, he'd be Neal

@CineGraphic ....IF HE WAS IN A PILE OF LEAVES YOU'D CALL HIM RUSTLE?

@CineGraphic

Eats left-overs.

He did this single-handedly, no-one gave him a leg up.

If he were a woman, he'd be a can dancer.

If his height increased by 12 inches, he'd grow a foot.

If he were in a canoe, he'd get into trouble for annoying the other boaters by continually rowing in a circle.

He went fishing and caught a fish this long (hold out one hand).

He tried to rob a bank, but he was unarmed.

His agent said "break a leg;" he said "Which one?"

Enough, this guy is impressive.

@CineGraphic Yes, there's nothing left.

[JosTango]

I will email my friends to see this one !

Best Regards Joseph
