How he was skating that flawlessly?! I'm more and more amazed by his craft, he was way ahead of his time and his legacy still lives on. Charlie Chaplin was/is the best thing to ever happen to film industry. It's been already 45 years since his death, but I still see deep meaning in his art. Rest in peace Mr. Chaplin❤

[kristennification]

Not only is his talent in this video obvious, the effects used to make it seem like he's dangling from the 'edge' was groundbreaking. This dude was way ahead of his time and still a joy to watch today. It's funny when you get older and learn to appreciate stuff like this.

By God, that lower store is a glass painting done right on the set! The camera is moving on a nodal point. That is a hell of a clever trick.

Chaplin was truly unique. An international star before radio and TV promotion, his films found a special place in the hearts of millions, here and abroad.

[moyrawoodward]

He’s unbeatable - and timeless. Wish he was still with us.

Even knowing it's a matte painting camera illusion trick doesn't take away from the mastery of this scene at all or the fact that Chaplin is NAILING his marks EVERY TIME. He still has to "sell" the illusion and gets so close to the 'edge' with each pass. Legendary talent.

Wow! How stunning that girl is! She’d still be a star today, her beauty is timeless.

No one is equal to this scene till today. Best comedy scene

[Turtlefast]

The legend at his best! And the gorgeous lady is Paulette Goddard😍, and the chemistry between those two is very real, as they were married at the time! Lucky Charlie!

This is what is called a combination of genius and beauty

[kalMHe]

How he started walking away with her was hilariously funny

[saibaldas]

My heart was pumping fast like hell when he was skating along the edge!!!😨😨

C'est incroyable comme il danse en patinant... il est fascinant ! Tout ce qui est difficile pour nous a l'air si facile pour lui! Le travail ne lui faisait pas peur... sa réussite il l'a drôlement méritée!! 🤩😍
