This must have been a lot of fun to make! Buster had that stiff leg, flat foot mannerism that you picked up on. Gotta have strong arms to take the brunt of those pratfalls! Hope you make more of these. Making a Keaton, Lloyd, Chaplin video tribute would be awesome!

That's the reason for the baggy pants.

I agree, you did a great job. Thanks for posting.

@drmoonrat: Seriously, you should have been alive in the 1950's so you could have played His Truly in "The Buster Keaton Story".

I thought at 1:31 you fingered the guy. Lol, but wow. You did a great job in capturing Busters mannerisms and falls.

The little tribute within a tribute, to Joe was excellent! (For those who don't know, Buster was part of a Vaudeville act as a child w/his family. Buster's father, Joe Keaton made famous, that gag where he put first one leg then the other on a table.) You hover an instant like Joe did. Forget those who don't think the pratfalls r as important as death-defying stunts. U have that move so perfectly, & u didn't break ur neck! They'll never understand! I do pratfalls too... U make it look easy!

@cinemahawk I love Keaton's death defying stunts, but I think I'm more impressed with his intricate prat falls. He never just fell down. He would always twist and flip and bend in a weird and interesting way.

try it on a train. or in some death defying way.

@bill291212 I've done my share of that now. Still nothing compared to Keaton.

@jenlikeshorses For the most part, yeah. This was actually just a spur of the moment video I made just as a Keaton impression.
