	Buster Crabbe
		Crabbe was born Clarence Linden Crabbe in California, but his parents moved to Hawaii when he was two years old; growing up in the islands, he learned to literally "swim like a fish." He was a champion boxer in high school, and went on to become a champion swimmer in the Olympics.
		Crabbe was at the top of his form as the rough-and-tumble sea captain and helped to make the serial one of the best of the later Columbias.
		Reportedly, PIRATES was Buster’s favorite serial, since it was the only one in which he played an original character and not a comic-strip hero, thus allowing him to play the role according to his own ideas and not have to worry about “measuring up” to fans’ preconcieved ideas of the part.

		Tarzan is played by Buster Crabbe, who won the gold medal in the 400-meter free-style at the 1932 Olympics, one of three formers Olympians to play the Lord of the Jungle that decade.
		Crabbe, whose previous film role was Kaspa the Lion Man in the Tarzan ripoff "Lord of the Jungle," is given little to do and is also in the running for the least articulate Tarzan of all time.

	DNK Amazon Store :: Tarzan and the Trappers/Tarzan the Fearless
		On the plus side, Crabbe has the requisite physique for the role and his expressions are more developed than Johnny Weissmuller's blank look; in addition Crabbe has one of the best Tazan yells that I've heard (this is in contrast to another Amazon reviewer who panned it).
		On the down side, Crabbe wears a loincloth that is ridiculously skimpy on the backside, almost like the costumer was gay and wanted to flagrantly show-off Crabbe's buns.
		Buster was OK but just not one of my favorites in the role.

		Buster Brown, Buster Crabbe and Buster Poindexter all came later, presumably owing their names indirectly to Harry Houdini.
		As Buster grew old the easiest way to care for him and not interrupt the act was to take him on the stage with them, and so this was done.
		"Buster" does not give the impression of having been taught; his work is so spontaneous and so accurate that it shows him to be above the average performer of his age in intelligence and indicates that he understands the value of pause and emphasis as well or better than many a performer of mature years.
