An embellishment to the skit that brought the biggest laugh of all. It wasn't Keaton's invention--he always gave his father the credit--but it was an idea that took the pratfall to the level off high art, a signature bit that would remain in the collective memory of an entire generation of viewers. As Wynn used a kettle of boiling water to loosen the grip of the molasses on his shoes, Buster hoisted on leg onto the counter, then the other, and seemingly paused in mid-air before plummeting to the floor--where the sticky stuff proceeded to saturate the seat of his pants.
How he did it without breaking his neck was a mystery to many, but to Keaton himself the technique was elementary.
"When he did the 'Butcher Boy' fall," Eleanor explained, "his feet were high enough that when he crashed, all his weight fell on the shoulders, which is where it should be. He's got that heavy muscle structure [and it] acted like a pad. The spine, the tailbone--nothing like that ever touched the floor. You could get hurt. But if you held your breath and tensed the muscles, it doesn't even knock the wind out of you."
(James Curtis, A Filmmakers Life, pg 536)

To correct a misconception, Keaton had never stopped performing. His longest…

Rod Serling ֍ Ed Wynn & Murray Hamilton in The Twilight Zone Season 1 Episode 2: One for the Angles (1959)
Street scene: Summer. The present. Man on a sidewalk named Lew Bookman, age sixtyish. Occupation: pitchman. Lew Bookman, a fixture of the summer, a rather minor component to a hot July, a nondescript, commonplace little man whose life is a treadmill built out of sidewalks. And in just a moment, Lew Bookman will have to concern himself with survival - because as of three o'clock this hot July afternoon, he'll be stalked by Mr. Death.
