This is a real section of building and the stunt was based solely on measurements. If he stood even a little bit off from the mark, he would have almost certainly died. The prop house weighed over two tons.

Buster Keaton is my favorite classic comediante, amo su arte, el mejor junto a Chaplin. Gracias por el video.

who, the poster or the person in the film? cos buster keaton (in the film) coulda died in that clip, he actually let people drop a wall on him...if he had been just an inch or two in the wrong place, he would have died.

Buster Keaton was an amazing guy! He has a lot of people from our modern day doing some of his stuns!

He's a true visionary who's unmatched today! It's crazy how he did all of his own stuns and barely got hurt

they probably had the wall fall many times and drew a thin outline where it would never hit or use physics and calcuate it or something

Probably, but his stuns where his father used to toss him around stage was unmatched he even stated that if it wasn't for his cat-like landings, he would most likely be crippled or died.

A lot of people tried the stunt and died or suffered injuries. I studied up on him lol
