@Jazzmanchgo, Fayard eventually retired when he got old and he might of had some problems. Word was that it was always more work for Fayard, But Harold was still doing splits and dancing almost until the very end. Check out the challenge scene in the move Taps with Gregory Hines and Sammy Davis Jr. A 68 year old Harold was still doing jumps and splits.

@amensupremera Correct me if I'm wrong -- but didn't they end up pretty severely disabled (ruined tendons in their legs) from all those splits?

@amensupremera I believe that's where Donald O'Connor got it from (cf. his "Make 'Em Laugh" routine in "Singin' In the Rain") -

No hands splits. Amazing, never took a dance lesson in their lives. I get chills watching these most wonderful men.
