Question

Fans discuss identifying a clip from the clip show where Kramer jumps between rooftops; most agree it's from The Cadillac episode, with some noting it may parody Hitchcock's Vertigo.

I was just watching the syndicated rerun of the pre finale clip show and saw one clip that I can't place: It was a far shot of Kramer (I think) jumping from a tall rooftop to a shorter one in an almost batman-like fashion (yes he is Batman!). What episode is this from? Thanks!

And some think it is a parody of a Hitchcock movie - Vertigo(?) So I rented the movie to verify this but the scenes are shot quite differently.

When I first saw that scene, I thought it was a parody of The Godfather Part 2, when Vito Corleone is walking on the rooftops when he assasinated Don Fanucci.

Well, DeNiro is on a rooftop but he's all alone. There's no chase involved.

involved.

I know now that it's not a parody of The Godfather, but when I first saw that clip of Kramer on the rooftop, I thought that the scenes had a lot of similarity.

Thanks to all who answered. I'm nor surprised I couldn't place it. Not one of my favorite episodes.
