@@unknowuser9821 Some things sometimes are better left unsaid, but since you ask. It broke some small bones inside his neck. It remained undiagnosed for a very long time, and caused him chronic pain. Eventually, related closely or not so closely to this incident, his adult life was marked by a downward spiral into alcohol and a messy private life. His shine was during his youth.
3:07 Fun fact, Buster literally broke his neck doing this stunt. He didn't realize it but did complain about neck pain for a while after. It wasn't until he had an x ray years later that doctors told him he had once broken his neck. His neck muscles were so strong that they just held the bone in place until it healed.
since his work is centred on the stunts, i think its impact on the viewers will be timeless. no need for much character speech, body language gets the message across!
I'm still in awe of the house scene; Keaton was like a human cartoon. The man was fearless and possessed big balls. It's miraculous that he lived to be an old man.
There is a very recent interview by Paul Petersen who did 275 episodes of the Donna Reed Show as a teenager. The Christmas episode of the first year, Buster Keaton played a hospital janitor who plays Santa. Paul describes the shoot. It was Shot at Stage 1 on the Columbia back lot with 20 sound stages. Word came around that Buster Keaton was going to be on the lot. Normally their entire production had 60 people. When word spread that Buster was going to be on the lot, all of the other sound stages shut down and more than 450 people came to stand behind the 4th wall and watch Buster Keaton do his thing. Donna Reed won an Oscar for "From Here to Eternity". She told Paul (who had previously worked with Sophia Loren and Cary Grant on "Houseboat"), he isn't just a celebrity, and not just a pioneer, Buster Keaton is a Giant! Thats what everyone in the industry thought.
The upper body strength this dude had was unreal. Do you understand how strong you gotta be and how strong your grip strength has to be to pull even half of this stuff off? I can respect an artist in his craft.
The water tower scene with the train was from the Sherlock Jr movie. Buster actually broke his neck when the tremendous amount of water hit him. He didn't even realize his neck was broken until a few years later. The 2nd house facade falling on him was from Steamboat Bill, Jr. It required amazing precision. Even being inches out of position meant the 2 ton facade would have hit him. The scene became his most memorable scene.
Seeing this guy do those stunts puts the stunts Tom Cruise does into perspective. I’m not dissing TC - not at all! But back then, I doubt he had months to prepare with a team of everyone to back him up should anything go wrong. Buster Keaton is friggin amazing. Wow. Just. Wow.
@@TheSRBgamer63? Tom cruise is one of most active guy in doing his own stunt. U don't have to diss other just to praise other both can be good . Also cruise stunts are different to Jackie's more dance/kung fu one's
Keaton was amazing, truly mind blowing, even some of his wire work stunts are incredible. It’s easy to see where Jackie got a lot of his inspiration from. There are a few stunt actors that were from the Hong Kong umbrella that are notable, Sammo Hung, Biu Yuen, Michelle Yeoh. @@80sguy27
There were great ones besides him - Lloyd, Chaplin, ... But Keaton was the best, I believe. These stunts: The ideas first - the ingenious set-ups - the precision in the choreography finally. Flawless..! What a genius.
Love Lloyd, Chaplin, Keaton, Laurel & Hardy, Raymond Griffith, Charlie Chase -- all brilliant, all different from each other. No reason to compare them, really... We all have our 'pets', but they were all incredible. My personal 'pet' is Lloyd, but I have to admit: if I could have spent some time with just one of them, it would have been Buster. His dedication, his lack of pretense, his total professionalism are really unmatched. He just looks to have been a wonderful guy.
Those things aren’t light either! Apparently many crew members walked off the set during the building falling stunt. They had run some test falls prior to the stunt and saw that their calculations were pretty unreliable about where Buster should stand and they thought he was definitely going to get killed. Buster did it anyway!
Almost look unreal...Buster is truly the best silent comic actor. He had such a sad life though. Suffered so much and he gave his whole soul to his art.
Well, not such a sad life. In the end, he was happily married, in demand on TV, bought a mini-ranch like he'd dreamed of back in the 1920s, and caught the reneissance of his movies' fame and the applause of the whole world. Is that so bad? :)
Hard to imagine how many injuries that poor guy suffered during his hey day! Old age must have been very painful but he trooped on until the very end. What a Man.
@@ethribin4188 Just came across your comment after watching Buster Keaton. Just out of curiosity, who would you say are the top three most important actors of all time? Mine would be Laurence Olivier, William Shakespeare and Clint Eastwood. Additional ones would be Tom Hanks, John Wayne, Michael Kaine, Sean Connery, Anthony Hopkins, Angela Lansbury Daniel-Day Lewis and Steven Seagal.

seems like a poorly formed question since everyone will have different criteria for what constitutes "important" and have different subjective answers as a result I don't know why people argue about these things when there's clearly no objective answer
Buster Keaton were insane, genius, fantastic... This whole concept of making the whole movie running in 2D is cool even for today... This guy was one of a kind
Genial. Dominaba todas y cada una de las facetas: desde la idea, la ejecución, la capacidad física, y el impacto en el espectador. Un genio, creo que no tan valorado como debería. Único!.
In general, it's gorgeous. Until now, there has been nothing that would surpass it except for the technical quality of the film frame. And the acting of this actor is still top notch. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanx so much for sharing! Buster Keaton. What a man. He could do it all. And did! No CGI. No camera tricks. What you saw was all Buster. Wrote. Directed. Produced. Acted. Comedy. Drama. Composed, played, and sang. Conceived and executed stunts. Designed and built machines and props for gags. The famous watertower torrent broke his neck! (Sherlock Jr. --- Buster didn't account for such water pressure And he didn't know he'd broken his neck 'til years later at a routine exam when his doctor told him so.) And, oh, that well-known falling housefront bit! (Steamboat Bill Jr. --- He only had about a 2" clearance in that window.) Quite impressive! The Great Stone Face. (Buster found out during his time in vaudeville with his parents, that if he laughed during a bit, the audience didn't, so he trained himself to keep a straight face all the time.) The Greatest of All Time! A really great guy. The true Iron Man: broke most every bone in his body, and kept going. And . . . He had pinpoint accuracy with a custard pie at 27 feet, even in his later years! RIP, darling Buster, and thanx so very much for the magic, music, and memories. (Yes. I absolutely adore Buster Keaton. For 70+ years now.)
"The General" was my first Buster Keaton movie (about a year ago now) and I've never had such a visceral reaction to a movie as that. I've never been the sort of person to cover my eyes during a movie but there were multiple times I was almost afraid to watch, which sounds silly for such a fun, goofy film. He was one of the greats, and no one can deny that.
The first scene was a mistake. Buster was supposed to catch the building and he missed. It was such a great scene he incorporated it into the film. How he was able to catch that car without ripping off his arm is incredible. Dick Van Dyke asked him if there was any trick photography and Keaton said no. Amazing!!
He had to have had a harness under his clothes with a hook on his arm that caught the car. Getting yanked like that with no support would break arms and rip shoulders apart.
@@TehButterflyEffect Pretty sure the severity of the yank is much exaggerated by deliberately throwing his body horizontally. The car isn't actually going that fast. The flying in the air from the back of the tram is even better. I think I spied a wire. Still brilliant, though.
A true artist in of his craft, i remember watching as a child and being unaware of the skill required just to make me laugh, and did he make me laugh, thank you ❤.
I think there are some effects bro, if they changed the scenario when he sitted on the toilet then they also may have used some effects aswell like in the one when he holds on to a tram and then his leggs fly up like if the tram was going at 150 km/h wich was imposible at that time... more than likely they used some strings attached to the tram to make his leggs fly like that to give a comedic aspect to it... but the stunts are mostly real
What's the purpose of lying, though? You just watched a video that contains a lot of very impressive special effects... Did you think that waterfall rescue was completely live action? My gosh, the state of the internet... When will people think more than two seconds about what they are up voting? Did you somehow forget that "special effects" includes practical effects?
@@awesomeferret No need to get excited by using the strong word such as 'lying' as I did not mean to do so at all. I was talking about Computer Graphics, but I made a mistake in my word choice. Thank you for pointing it out. However, I think those who sympathized with this comment agreed with the context I was trying to talk about. Thank you.
The man was a genius. And he came along at just the right time. No studio these days would allow an actor to endanger himself this way (or herself, for that matter). Plus, he had a beautiful face. I've always had a bit of a crush on him.
Mr. Keaton, I have to ask you to forgive me. In my childhood, I've always loved - and laughed a lot - with Stanley & Laurel, as comedians (who was very, very well dubbed in my language, italian) and snobbing you & Charlie Ch. Now I know you both were geniuses and you really made The Silver Screen, in your own way. Kudos!
What a guy!! a true legend and a real cinematic hero! . No computer wizardry... just balls of steel and well thought out stunts (and i'm guessing some luck too..)
What makes great stunts outstanding? Well, making them sound like they just happened by chance. This man aced all narrow chances of survival probability to his favour. Respect.
The OG of Hollywood stuntmen, he set the bar, and very few have gotten over it even to this day, Used to watch the general with my granny and her brother (my great uncle) they introduced me to all the Silent era greats, keaton, chaplin, chase, keystone cops, then marx brothers, laurel and Hardy, the 3 stooges etc , still love all of these guys to this day.
Jackie Chan was inspired by buster Keaton. Jackie Chan is the greatest action star that ever lived. Anybody who doesn't believe me watch all his late 70s all of his 80s an early 90s up to drunken Master 2.@@victorlewis3251

Does anyone know the name of the piece of music that is played in the video ?
0:34 mr beast did a short of this
Just the gag ideas by themselves are genius. The fact that he actually did any one of these without getting killed is mind-boggling.
Do you really think because you are shown black and white footage means they didn't have green screen.

His shoes look long and clownish?? Magnetic shoes .
Have you guys ever seen this Indian actor called Akshay Kumar??
Let's not forget he was also usually quite drunk...
He looks pretty lit in some of those films.@@tam1876_
With those stunts, it’s amazing that he lived so long.
As well as Jacky Chan
Exactly what i've thought. I even looked up when he died. He made it till 71 which is amazing based on these stuns. The guy was insane
That's only one side of the story. The stunt with the water tower wounded him for life and caused a lot of psychological pain as well.
@@orchidahussuhadihcro9862can you elaborate on what happened?
@@unknowuser9821 Some things sometimes are better left unsaid, but since you ask.
It broke some small bones inside his neck. It remained undiagnosed for a very long time, and caused him chronic pain. Eventually, related closely or not so closely to this incident, his adult life was marked by a downward spiral into alcohol and a messy private life. His shine was during his youth.
This has got to be the strongest argument that stunts need an oscar category
Jackie Chan has been saying this for ages!
Could have great stunts in very bad movies most of time. It's like comparing Tom Cruise to Buster Keaton!!!!!!
They could call it a Buster
They have one already

He didn’t “literally” break his neck, he just broke it.

No, he used 'literally' correctly

Over 100 years later and we are still here in awe of you❤
There has never been another like Buster Keaton
Actually they say Jackie Chan is the modern day equivalent, I can’t argue
On multiple occasions Jackie Chan said Buster Keaton is one of his biggest inspirations
Wolf Larson did a lot of stunts in Tarzan that were scary and dangerous!

most of the gags used in later films and animation were invented by silent era talent including Buster.
I was going to ask if he died on the job, so thanks for answering!!
У меня тоже сразу возник вопрос - а дожил он до старости? На вопрос уже ответили, спасибо!🙂
初めて知りました。素晴らしい演技です。これがRUclipsで見られるのは本当に嬉しい。

You can clearly see he's an extremely skilled gymnast - AND a bit of a madman to do these things.
Engineer and mathematician. With imperrfect timing things would of gone real bad for him.
Con varias fracturas como medallas
Keaton was a movie genius with the brain of a first-class mathematician and engineer plus balls of solid titanium. His stunts are still amazing!
Absolutely.Jackie Chan has said in interviews that Buster Keaton was a huge inspiration.
Oh yeah - and Jackie referenced Keaton's "Steamboat Bill Jr" house-fall gag in Project A Pt II
I've been a worshipper at the Church Of Buster for decades and I've never heard it better put.

Surprisingly that didn't hinder him at all.
That's explained why it took him for a while to stand up after the water tower falls
I wonder if 1:09 contributed to him breaking his neck aswell.
didnt he break his arm with the facade stunts because he was a few inches out of alignment?
Thank you for telling about the broken neck. I was going to, now I don't have too. LOL

They are frigging heavy. It has to be a prop.
I was doing some landscaping recently, and we were using wooden sleepers.
I can attest to their weight!
They were approx' 60kg.
Definetely a hollow prop. It would be about 50Kg at that size, considering an average 400-600kg/m3 wood density.
They could be balsa, or even hollow balsa.

This man aced all narrow chances of survival probability to his favour. Respect.
Настоящая магия! Спасибо, интересное видео!
Just amazing. He was so strong and coordinated
I was laughing so hard I almost peed on my self. He was fantastic.
Wonderful! Including the perfect musical accompaniment! Thanks Rafael!
Still impressing us and making us laugh from a hundred years ago..
Excellent¡ super professional..amazing...never forget mr Keaton😢
The OG of Hollywood stuntmen, he set the bar, and very few have gotten over it even to this day, Used to watch the general with my granny and her brother (my great uncle) they introduced me to all the Silent era greats, keaton, chaplin, chase, keystone cops, then marx brothers, laurel and Hardy, the 3 stooges etc , still love all of these guys to this day.
Pure genius.
まさに体を張った演技に脱帽。黎明期を語る上で無くてはならない存在であり、命懸けで観客を楽しませた生粋のエンターテイナー。
He was as a bit of a Magician…
His family toured with Houdini. It was Houdini who gave Keaton his nickename "Buster"
👏😂👏Pero que excelencia, no había visto nada igual👌🏽👍🏽🤩hasta ahora😃👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
It's amazing ❤ he's a hero .
They did not have any CGI or fake stunts back then. You either pulled it off or it was a Closed Casket situation. Brilliant Man. My Respects, RH
Гениальные трюки от гениального мастера трюков. Даже на сегодняшний день эти трюки просто супер. Нет никакой комп.графики и зелёного фона.😮😮
Бастер Китон и Чарли Чаплин- маэстро трюкачества
This is better than and more awe- inspiring than today's special effects!
0:56 The Amazing Spider-Man 2... Got the reference 🤩
Можно бесконечно смтреть на 3 вещи: на огонь, на воду, и на трюки Бастера Китона!
Непревзойденный до сих пор!
Tom Cruise: I do my own stunts
Buster Keaton: Hold my beer
Jackie Chan
Jackie Chan!!!
@@OF.91 Jackie Chan is the only other star in the same league as Keaton.
Jackie Chan was inspired by buster Keaton. Jackie Chan is the greatest action star that ever lived. Anybody who doesn't believe me watch all his late 70s all of his 80s an early 90s up to drunken Master 2.@@victorlewis3251
Buster Keaton: Hold my train
