Summary:

"OFFICIAL BELGIAN FILM. NEW WAR GAME A favourite pastime of the Belgian soldiers. Two men are strapped together and endeavour to use one anothers hands, resulting in a real mix up". Single shot of man with comically shortened legs and odd arms makes faces at the camera in front of a group of laughing soldiers. The man hidden behind reveals his arms to be the arms shown, the man in front's arms being the 'legs'.
