That's the first time seeing that clip.
It must have been like science fiction come true.

I have a 1913 program from a vaudeville theater in Syracuse,NY.It had the Edison Kinetophone as one of the acts on the bill.I remember comedian Lou Holtz commenting on the Kinetophone.He said that nobody thought much of it,really.edisonplayer
