I much prefer Buster Beaton over Charlie Chaplin. my favorites are Sherlock Jr., Steamboat Bill Jr. and The General. TCM has Beach Blanket Bingo with Frankie and Annette as well as an older Buster Keaton on today.

I enjoyed Sherlock Jr. Keaton broke his neck doing the stunt at 1:57 in the top video. Literally. He felt something was wrong but did not know to what extent until years later when he had an x-ray for some reason. The doctor looked at the x-ray and asked, “When did you break your neck?”

Still trying to find any footage of Charles Amador, a.k.a Charlie Aplin, the mexican Charlie Chaplin.
Don’t forget the much overlooked Harold Lloyd!
“Safety Last!”
Back in the days where a stunt double meant you saw the picture twice.
