Okay, so let me get this straight. They did all of that...1. Together. 2. In-between instruments,3. On top of big ass stairs, 4. In the fuckin 40's?!?!?! How? How in da hell can you jump about 10+ feet and land in a wide ass split. about 4 or 5 times and then stil get up without any hand help whatsoever. Then dance yo ass back up the big ass steps only to slide down the slide IN SPLIT FORM!!! So i think (yeah)I just shit my pants. lmao.

fayard was 29 and harold the shorter one was 22 when this film was made in 1943.Gregory Hines said that if a biography was ever filmed about the Nicholas Brothers that their dance routines would have to be computer generated because no one duplicate them. I agree totally

Fred Astaire got it right - simply the best. Bet they weren't on his salary though...oh well, saw this when I was a child and it just gets better with age!

To put MJ is the same sentence with talented acts like the Nicholas Brothers and Fred Astaire is a crime.
