- A year before Pearl White did the same stunt in “The Perils of Pauline”, Mabel Normand clambered into a hot air balloon, and lowered herself down from it via rope! As Mabel told “Photoplay” magazine: “The balloon got up about two hundred feet when (director) Mack Sennett pretended the going up of the balloon was an accident and yelled to climb down the hanging rope. When I landed… I sure had some choice words for Mack!’” Thanks to David Glass for the 8mm film print. Enjoy it here with my accompaniment!
Scanned from my super 8mm film print on a Wolverine Reels2Digital super and standard 8 film scanner.

So, hot air balloons were a thing at the beach before paragliding, I guess. Impressive that Mabel Normand actually lowered herself down that rope!
Nice transfer Omar (and the accompaniment is terrific too.... as always!)
And it’s all thanks to you for the print! Thank you so much for the kind words. Just received “The Paper Doll” in the mail today- I’ll be putting that up soon as well!
Mabel faints into Fatty's arms, but just bounces off his gut lol
