Pure Genius - Putting on the Ritz

You'll have to excuse me for adding a musical number to my blog, but this is genius and Fred Astaire's dancing and routine in this clip are outstanding!!

  3. Wow, that was an incredible performance!

    I'm intrigued as to how he got the cane to keep jumping back up into his hand.

    Certainly the knowledge is googlable but I'd rather keep my sense of wonder.

    Reminded me of how Dr. Frankenstein and his monster attempted to emulate this dance onstage at the monster's offical introduction to the world. (In the movie Young Frankenstein.)
