In The Gold Rush (1925), Charlie Chaplin's life is endangered when his cabin is dislodged by storm winds and ends up teetering on the edge of a cliff.
Less than six months after the release of The Gold Rush, a copycat routine was touted on posters for Min's Home on the Cliff (1926).
In Seven Chances (1925), Buster Keaton appeared on screen being chased by a horde of hopeful brides.
Months later, Sid Smith suffered a similar fate in a Fox two-reel comedy called The Heart Breaker (1925).
