Buster Keaton chase scene

Buster Keaton in a chase scene from his feature "Seven Chances" (1925). Some rocks are involved.

[@DebbieGallant2869]

He was THE most brilliant actor/director/stuntman/writer in all of Hollywood history. He was a freaking genius! God, I LOVE this man!!!

[@stevebailey3827]

"Some rocks are involved" -- understatement! Beautiful chase scene, beautiful score.

[@dhog41]

Fantastic scene. One of the best chase scenes in cinema history....but Keaton reportedly hated it for the unfair reviews it got. Personally, I loved this film. The man was a genius. MGM ruined him.

[@LauRa-re9un]

What unfair reviews? asking 10 years later...

[@Sahil-Singh.]

@@LauRa-re9un He was dead 9 years before.

[@SAOProductions1955]

Buster Keaton had to be some kind of athlete to do what he did here - not to mention in terrific physical condition.

[@Dorelaxen]

He came from a circus family and trained as an acrobat from a very young age.

[@SnickersEatsCookies]

@@Dorelaxen he does have an amazing story doesnt he

[@OxymoronicRomantic]

1925. When frames covered in painted canvas could actually pass as boulders. Love the movie magics. And, damn, that man was FIT.

[@hooskerdu1]

I remember the boulder scene from when I was a young child. Have loved Buster Keaton from the moment I saw this scene way back in the 60s.

[@94XJ]

Buster Keaton laughs at The Fast and the Furious. He don't need no car!

[@worldofbusterkeaton]

94XJ he might not need cars, but i bet he’ll be able to do really cool stuff with a nissan skyline , bugatti veyron, and ferrari!! ;)

[@MikeB3542]

He didn't need a stunt man either...that's Buster doing all that stuff.

[@Ungtartog]

Buster Keaton, the original stunt man!

[@jfcc9086com]

And actor!!!!!!

[@theresadimaggio7241]

oh Thank you Rtn. i loved this movie. i cant believe all the stunts BUSTER DID. tHANK YOU MY friend

[@animavivere]

You know, Keaton didn't actually want to make this film but couldn't refuse. The scene with the rocks was one of the only things he added himself. Originally it was suppose to fade out right after he hits the first stones. But Keaton, after completing the film and reviewing it, said it was missing something and added the scene with the rolling rocks...

[@JOJOBANANAZ1]

EASILY THE GREATEST COMIC ACTOR OF ALL TIME

[@midnytevega2777]

I dont care how bad ass you are...you will never be "buster Keaton running down the hills while gigantic rocks threaten to flatten you" badass

[@Ryuzaki4x]

He did Parkour before it was cool

[@Erador]

You need to recut this and add the part where all the brides are coming out of alleys and stuff by the hundreds =P This is easily one of the greatest, most entertaining chase scenes of all time.

[@dhog41]

....1:33....Whoaaaa, that man was an athlete. I have so many of his films on dvd and I'm always having to muck around with them trying to figure out how he could possibly do some of the stunts that he performed. Amazing. I guess it comes from his childhood on the Vaudeville stage with his mom and dad.

[@xioxitozona19]

BUSTER KEATON FUE Y SERA SIEMPRE.......UN GENIO!

[@squelto]

i like the part where he's like "screw it i'll take on the rocks instead!"

[@tongakhan230]

These greats were one of a kind. Amazing!

[@ferdinandogobbi]

Simply fantastic

[@gentiangentian1]

WoW ... He has never been beaten, ... he's so FAST!!!

[@clockworkmultiverse92]

Wow! Indiana Jones only had to run away from one boulder.

[@GIngerBreadHouse97]

luv the bit with him in the tree!!!

[@ianmatthysen9549]

This scene rocks!

[@tdsfa0727]

two words: fully committed.

[@GIngerBreadHouse97]

he was a legend!

[@petergibson2318]

We need more comedy like this to make us laugh out loud. Where are the new 21st century comedies?

[@petritimonen9941]

Tuo oli sitä aikaa jolloin ei tunnettu näitä stuntteja jotka tekivät nämä vaaraliset kohtaukset. Buster Keaton erittäin taitava.

[@s.d.0]

3:40 Did I just see parkour being invented?

[@henrysarmiento6796]

The king of parkour even when no body knew what it was back in 1920'S

[@mikemaximum9953]

And thous... Mario was born when he was in video games doing these type of stunts.

[@frankupton5821]

I didn't know they had rock groups in the 1920s.

[@歯王純]

凄いです これは　スタントマンではなく　 すべて　バスターキートンさん　御本人で　撮影したんですかね？ FROM JAPAN 2019.10.9

[@そのまんままつやまひきぐん]

なかなか日本語コメント見かけないのは悲しいとは思います。私は昭和の終わり頃にTVのCMで白黒フィルム映像でﾊﾗﾊﾗﾄﾞｷﾄﾞｷで無事乗り越えるシリーズを見て顔だけ覚えました。平成1桁に喜劇王バスターキートンｻﾝ紹介番組見て記憶にあった白黒フィルム映像が蘇り📱生活2年生の今はｷｰﾄﾝ映像を探しまくってます。ﾏｼﾞｯｸのﾀﾈみたいな部分も見えましたが名ｽﾀﾝﾄﾏﾝ喜劇王だと今も思います。

[@Dorelaxen]

Keaton was a true madman, but in the best way.

[@billynunn]

BRILLIANT !!!!!!!

[@carrite]

That dude was the greatest stuntman ever, maybe.

[@SERAPIO934]

La genialidad de Buster era infinita.

[@09kirankumar]

He deserves alot more fame

[@johnkelly2952]

The great silent acrobat comedian.

[@angchengann5037]

Yah....finally watched a movie without CGI!

[@davidjonathanavalostornero8016]

2:50 wtf this is literally Touhou life action movie.

[@greekmillennial4540]

The inspiration for Mario video games?

[@europa_bambaataa]

the freewheeling violence is the best. still entertaining today for the same reasons. the carefree way that they just portrayed things- like, "the world is dangerous". wow. so different today.

[@TheRealSugaBabi]

LOVE THIS!

[@SkellionPowalskiz]

Did he actually do all off that? I'm a little skeptical of the tree scene, but the rest is pretty awesome.

[@bobdionne4625]

Styrofoam hadn't arrived until 1944. Whatever those boulders were, cork, paper mache had to pack a dangerous wallop. There was probably a studio backdrop warehouse full of these awaiting the next cowboy movie. But only! Buster Keaton concocted this absurd scenario

[@maccafan1974]

3:50 Faster than a locomotive!

[@troyking1546]

Bro was the original Tom Cruise

[@mickesmanymovies]

Jackie Chan's biggest source of inspiration! He has copied/imitated a lot of Keaton's stunts in his movies.

[@Nuffflove]

Very funny chap.always enjoy watching......

[@tomfuterill2621]

cool

[@laeliebabe]

Them's real rocks?! That's a REAL TRAIN?!?

[@muhrvis]

Catchcry Fake rocks, but still...

[@AHHHHHHHHHHHHl]

Only the first ones are real, the rest are made of paper mache

[@jorgelaiguera1431]

No ! Las rocas no son reales , pero el si .

[@jorgelaiguera1431]

Si las rocas fueran reales , el podria hacerlo igual , era fantastico .

[@joseluisalvarez1411]

genial

[@yelloweyes2]

I´m not sure if he was in the tree while falling, but he actually did jump in from the cliff. That´s pretty dangreous and insane, at least.

[@jpsned]

Pretty clear to me it's a dummy in the falling tree. As soon as the tree is on the ground, you can see the edit.

[@robertknorr752]

But he jumped into the tree didn´t he?

[@samanthawright8832]

yeah, he jumped. after he jumps there is a cut, tree falling with the dummy, cut, he stands up from the tree. but he is insane and did some awesome stuff!

[@Sandals101]

I laughed when he ran in front of train !

[@glenngibbs1267]

Sheer brilliance

[@fredh1201]

SPEEEEEEEEED!!!!!!!!!!

[@hummingfrog]

Wow, very impressive CGI for the time period! (Of course there's no way they would let a valuable actor take risks like that for real. Would they?)

[@dfgalvin]

Keaton did all of his own stunts. He started in vaudeville as a kid with his dad throwing him around the stage. He was quite an acrobat.

[@mwasevamwandilawa2719]

I don't think those are real stones...

[@hummingfrog]

@@mwasevamwandilawa2719 No, obviously not, but he (if that's really him) is really running and tumbling downhill and making some real leaps. No movie studio today would allow Tom Cruise to do that, even if he wanted to. (I'm pretty sure though that they cut and used a dummy for when the tree was actually toppling over. That's not a stunt -- you're going to hit the ground just as hard as if you had missed the tree completely).

[@hummingfrog]

@@HarvardHeinous OK, respect. Even with the wire, that was an insane stunt. What were they thinking?

Wow it looks sooooooo dangerous 💪🤩😳😳
