M/Ss of an African-American man, the ’Hoodoo’ man, sitting on a box, breaking glass bottles with a hammer as a small crowd of people stand around him. We hear him say he is going to dance on the glass and that it is good for rheumatism - children in the crowd laugh. Various shots of the man dancing on the broken glass in bare feet (youch!) as a man in the crowd plays a banjo. Another man in the crowd speaks to the Hoodoo man (“What you gonna do now, boy?“) and the Hoodoo man does some fire-eating, to the amazement of the crowd. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLO
