January 27, 2011 Elisabeth Donnelly “…the secret is in landing limp and breaking the fall with a foot or a hand. It’s a knack. I started so young that landing right is second nature with me. Several times I’d have been killed if I hadn’t been able to land like a cat. Imitators of our act don’t last long, because they can’t stand the treatment.” — Buster Keaton tells you how to fall, 1914.
