chronophotograph from the late 1800s by Étienne-Jules Marey

This piece is truly fascinating - not a true film clip but rather a sequence of still photographs taken in quick succession, using techniques similar to those deployed by the better-known Eadweard Muybridge, here animated to display the model’s movements in action. Also noteworthy, his fine moustache, and the tan which reaches no further than collar and elbow!
