Found this neat video collection of stunts from the '20s.

10 minutes long...I particularly liked the Thunderbird popping its parachute toward the end. We found parts of the system for deploying the parachute when we reassembled that airplane last winter.

Also, it's hard to not laugh at a Jenny crashing into a building or a guy taking a bath under a baloon.

The third segment with the Travelair and the guy sliding to a stop reminds me of a flight I took once on TreeTopAirlines (TTA) before Lorenzo got a hold of it-
