All of the close-up shots of Harold on the outside of the building are actually small structures that were constructed on the roofs of actual buildings so the real high-level view was in the background. In reality he was only a few feet above a real building’s roof. These sets on the roofs of downtown buildings were kept very secret at the time, and Harold himself never admitted that they existed, even when he was interviewed as an elderly man. But there's at least one photo of one of them, which is how I know this is how the scenes were done.

Many people don't know this: Harold Lloyd lost his right thumb, index finger and half of his right palm during a photo shoot in 1919 so he was wearing a light glove with a prosthesis in this movie. Although this movie used "a few tricks" performing this stunts without half of your right hand is absolutely insane.

The studio wasn't going to risk the life of one of their biggest stars.

Thanks Hugo Cabret for bringing me to this good movie. :)

Absolutely Beautiful. You just watch it and think, what a Miracle. What a great Actor

Fantastic trick photography! Until I saw the definitive video showing how they shot this scene, I was convinced he was really 12 stories above the street. Super!

There is no trick photography. There are some cleaver camera angles. There is a platform below him just out of shot.

You are amazing. Love the piano piece--it soooo fits.

Просто невероятно! Какая-то черно-белая ерунда, но почему-то вспотели ладони и пульс участился. Возникло реальное волнение за этого чела, потрясающе!

Watched this today with my 3 year old daughter, she was LOL when he bumps his head. I used to watch reruns as a kid and loved his stunts.

I used to watch Harold Lloyd when i was kid in the 70s. His show used to be on TV every afternoon at 5:30 just before the 6 oclock news.

I just showed this to my little brother. Every five seconds: "Oh my gosssssh!"

Boy, won't he be pissed when they invent the elevator.

In the storyline he was only doing it because of a publicly stunt. He was going to receive a lot of money for it. And he was going to use the money to marry his girlfriend. In real life Mildred Davis who played the girl in this movie did marry Harold afterwards.

sarad matthew tigga What are you talking about? Even passenger ships had elevators for the passengers DECADES before 1929

Much better than modern movies today!

I saw a 1965 interview with Harold Lloyd in the recommendations on this movie. I’m glad to see he survived this then!

Harold Lloyd was another actor who was ahead of his time. Like Buster Keaton, he was also an amazing stuntman. RIP Harold Lloyd!

There was a platform 15 feet below him. Google the photo. He was no Buster Keaton.

I love how the piano is plaeyd in this Harold Lloyd clip.

Amazing movie! Wow, the suspense! Great job on the music!

Panic courses through my mind constantly what a frightening thing to perform!!!

I love Harold Lloyd

Great music composition! It really captures the mood while remaining true to the original; sort of like "The Artist."

i never thought i'd be this entertained by a movie from 100 years ago

It might have been a gag, but when his head hit the bottom of that ledge, it looked like a pretty hard hit to me, well done mr.Lloyd, well done indeed, you had to be tough to be in pictures in those days, thanks for posting these gems from a different era.

harold lloyd had balls of steel, i punked out of bungie jumping today at the fair cause of the height, looked down and nope, now imagine having to hold on to the ledges of a building no safety, knowing any slip will kill you, all in the name of entertainment, this guy needs life time awards etc

That's true. Him and Buster Keaton are the 2 great giants of the silent age. Nobody today would ever do the stuff they did.

you would be amazed how easy it is to fake that without CGI. He built prop pieces of building on the roofs of other buildings. The camera was on a wooden tower also on the roof placing it at an angle where the background is visible but the roof is not. Each section was on a higher building, so the background would show he was getting higher. But if he had fallen it would have been a short distance to the roof. REPLY

I know how it was done but it still gives me the shivers.

It looks more real than any of today's movies with all the modern effects.

The most striking scene in the history of cinema. The filming art at its peak. Thanks!

Amazing! It looks so real even today. Harold was a genius so was Buster!🎥
