Video Explores How 1920s Filmmakers Pulled Off Death-Defying Stunts Without Dying

A new video from Lost in Time dives into some of the wildest and most iconic movie stunts from the silent film era.

This is a behind-the-scenes look at how legends like Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, and Charlie Chaplin pulled off seemingly impossible feats of physical comedy and danger… without modern safety gear or visual effects.

“In this video we’re breaking down how they pulled off the craziest stunts in the 1920s from Hollywood legends Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd. I have made 3D animations showing exactly how each scene was filmed, and it is amazing how creative they were back then.”

And those animations really drive it home. Watching them reveals just how much thought and trickery went into making these death-defying moments is fascinating.

This is just a reminder that the roots of modern movie magic were built with brains, not just bravery.
