I know that there was a music video done in the same style, but this film was a old musical as far as i can remember. Someone like Danny Kay or Donnold Conner.

Old style musical. Its NOT singing in the rain...the scene takes place during a sunny day...the charecter is waving to people as he bounces down the street.

The film is "Small Town Girl" (1953), and the actor who jumped down the street was the late Bobby Van.
The clip is featured in MGM's "That's Entertainment, pt. 2"

Okay, not Singing in the Rain. But pick any other Gene Kelly movie and you'll see him doing the same thing, but dry.
Donald O'Conner did a slapstick number called "Make 'Em Laugh" but it was done indoors on a stage set. He was supposed to be the comic and was doing his routine backstage while the stage hands etc. were carrying furniture around to dress the set, and he was jumping over, under and on top of all the stuff that was going by.
Danny Kaye did some very funny routines, but dancing wasn't one of his skills.

Gene Kelly in Dancing in the rain

Gene Kelly from Singin' in the Rain was recently re-worked into an advert. It was a remix and they imposed Gene's face onto a body-popper. I wasn't that impressed.
The same film had Donald O'Connor in it and he was amazing.
