HANGING MUNCHKIN in The Wizard Of Oz: Original VHS Proof

at which point?
To everyone speculating on the face seen in the video, yes it’s from a 1978 trailer for the horror classic The Exorcist (which was banned due to concerns over the flashing imagery). There are 2 possibilities for this:
1. The user intentionally added it in to get attention and views.
2. Bits from the Exorcist trailer were (probably accidentally) recorded over the Oz tape which does tend to happen when it comes to old video tapes.
@Pentex Sucks i get you

And at 4:45 and 4:47
You just started a new conspiracy about your haunted VHS tape
@Leah Cortez Not all make-up. And nobody got cancer from anything in this movie.
@Leah Cortez Buddy Ebsen spent two weeks in an oxygen tent after the aluminum powder in his make-up kicked up a congenital bronchial condition he had, and a further four weeks convalescence at home. After that, he got back to work and made two movies which were released the same year as "Wizard."
He went on to a long career in which he created two iconic T.V. characters, namely Jed Clampett of "The Beverly Hillbillies" and the title character of the detective show "Barnaby Jones."
Mr. Ebsen died in 2003 at the age of 95.
As for his successor Jack Haley, he died in 1979 of a heart attack (ironically enough).
Neither death was in any way related to the movie they had worked on in 1938, and neither gentleman had cancer.
@Leah Cortez Not at all; you needed the whole story.
The tracking issues on your VHS have uncovered a face, way creepier than the hanging munchkin which always has been a large bird.
the hanging did happen srry but hollywoods covering it all up
Brett Janovich No it didn't sorry but you're an idiot.
Patowsky _ your an idiot for not knowing that he looked at the wrong version
Bornmrpringle And You're even more idiot since you can't see the difference between your and you're, and it's also funny because you're even more and more idiot since you believe this is real.

Dude, I used to have the VHS tape and watched it myself in the 90s. Even my mom knew about it before me. This isn't something recent that some UA-camr pulled out of his ass.
michael enochs this is the original dude the other ones are edited
there's a youtuber i can't remember his name it was like Joe-something but he debunked it already with some Q U A L I T Y research. so yea this isn't fake.
In the original one there was a body but when the HD came out they covered it with a bird.
No. Like.....no
Nope, it was always a crane.
Not true
According to notes made on the set, a setweight (used to keep things up) fell to early. In fact, you can hear something large hitting the ground in the original. Chances are, a light fell down, hence the reason why Judy Garland looked backward twice, but not directly toward the setweight. The light does indeed change, too.
Nothing fell; if something had, Victor Fleming would have yelled, "Cut!" and the stage crew would have fixed the problem. THEN they would have continued shooting.
I have an original VHS tape and there is “Someone” hanging from a tree!
I agree, I had it too and I remember watching it several times and seeing it clearly.
Is there a face too
Naw that's jus me vibing with the tree's :)
Did you see the two faces ?
Joseph Fargnoli Yeah he has a 50 year anniversary edition which was edited. Original my ass lol
I saw a interview with one of the munchkins a while back and he told the story of the munchkin who hanged himself on set and it made it onto the final cut of the movie. It was only one of many horror stories while making this movie
Rubbish. The scene in question was completed a week before the Singer Midgets ever got to MGM.
@@MaskedMan66 You don't know that.what were you alive in 1939 lol
That interview doesn't exist.
@@stewb2004 I don't need to have been; the people who were there have told their stories to historians who wrote books about the making of the movie.

who knows maybe yard sales or ebay.
I have a copy recorded off TV in 1987, and it's on that version.
WRONG. There is a video up showing the 1985 version with the BIRD. And another video showing that the "body" is digitally added in to stir up shit on youtube. Sorry but there is not now, nor has there ever been legitimate footage of anyone hanging themselves in this movie.

It was found out that the face that appears between static has been debunked by ScareTheatre. The face was found out to be from a trailer of the exorcist
I remember seeing that on tv as a child and it really creeped me out but no one else watching seemed to notice...for years I thought it was my imagination......☮️
You must have a pretty vague memory then
The face you saw at 4:05 is from the movie “The Exorcist” and Scaretheater debunked it in his video “Strange UA-cam Videos Episode 7”
I came here from that lol
Oh.. I though it was Michael Jackson ...
@@duckvlogs9601 I knew it wasn't him but it sorta looked like him lmao 😂
The face is a lot scarier in that flash image, imo!
Thank you x Was a bit creeped out by that face. Just saw the film yesterday!!
You cannot see it in this version of the video but, *something is in there.
Around 1997-ish I was doing part-time work for a film distribution company that among other things provided classic films to mostly art-house theaters that wanted to show say a title such as King Kong or whatever on like the 50th or 75th anniversary of a movie's release. At about that time I and three others were working on a project to get about a dozen or so copies of "Oz" ready to go out for its 60th in 1999. The copies we were working on were the original 35mm (if i remember correctly) movie theater prints from a 1950's re-release not 1980's video tapes.
Mostly the job was just going through the prints looking for obviously bad cut and repair work and replacing it from other already cannibalized reels of the same films we kept for such repairs. The last part of the job was to watch the film. Viewings not normally done on a big screen but, one of my co-workers was leaving the job so four of us had some beers and a little party in the screening room late one night. Making sure to look out, because the urban myth of the "hanging munchkin" was already a thing by then.
Now PLEASE let me be clear, I am not saying I saw a munchkin jump through a noose and hang himself. Nor do I believe that happened, however whatever it was kinda looked like it! Myself and the three people I were with were all in agreement that it looked sorta like it and that is for sure where the urban myth comes from. It sure looked like something that wasn't supposed to be there on the big screen.
To describe it I'd say it almost looks like there's something, maybe someone, lit up in silhouette behind a curtain (The blue background behind the trees in this case) stepping off a short stool or something, hanging themselves then swinging for a second. I'll repeat, don't think that it's someone killing themselves. I don't know what it was, trick of shadow maybe but, it was surely enough to feed this myth.
So take this however you want (again I don't think it's a hanging but damn if it doesn't look the business!) but, if you really want to see what caused this fuss you need to get a much older copy of the film, watch it on the big screen and look in the far background (and it's not the friggin bird! The bird can 'also' be seen in that scene) It's in the blue background area.
*I'm adding this part (a couple years after my original post) after reading some of the other comments. One commenter says a light may have fell during the filming of that scene. I think that could be a possibility. Let's say one of those big can lights fell. Some of those can be about 3 or so feet tall and can be about as or heavier as a little person. It would be up in the rigging secured in some way, could have a safety wire attached or at bare minimum the power cord so if it fell it could swing just like someone jumping through a noose. I don't know if that's what it was but, it's a possibility as good as any.
But at this point any argument as to what it is or was is pretty pointless. Without an older copy of the film, we're talking really old atleast 60yrs, there's no way to even see it to argue about. It's just not there in the newer VHS, DVD or digital conversions, so without a time machine or other way to get those copies we're S.O.L. Oh and one last time, it's not the freakin bird, whatever it is. we saw the bird back in the 90s same as you can still today.
It's always been a bird. Shut your cocksucker and stop perpetuating disproven bullshit.
@@rudypericolo grow a set. You need to get the fuck off the internet if your faggotty sensibilities as so easily bruised. It was always a bird.
@@rudypericolo pathetic projection. Face facts boy, you've been wrong about everything you've said. You're welcome to keep digging that hole.
My friend told me about this and showed me the video when we were about 10 or 11. It freaked me out so bad my parents had to calm me down and told me it was just a bird. And here I am 6 years later exploring this again

@@LeMarch14 Remastering only inviolves sharpening the sound and picture. The content remains the same as it has since 1939. Nobody died.
@@LeMarch14 That's not what or how remastering works, and yes it's one of the Eu's that got away earlier after they tried using real animals for the forest scenes, that one happened to not be caught in time and wound up on film to boggle simple minds for decades now.

Just like how your VHS randomly showed a face. I had one too. It was a Disney live sing a long musical. With Micky and the rest. Anyways after rewinding and rewatching it several times(family was poor, very few VHS tapes) And clicked play, a completely brand new random scene showed up. It was Micky and friends in a dark castle singing a childish scary song. Micky and friends were also in Halloween costumes. I clearly remember a Dracula with teeth. Anyways this happened once in my entire life. After finishing the tape, rewind and rewatch. The creepy Halloween scene was never found again. A one time thing. It was like a VHS glitch or secret.
Yessss 😮 as if you saw that too I know exactly what you mean I saw this on duck tails vhs and I was so scared I still can’t watch that film
Well, a Dracula without teeth wouldn't be much, would he?
The logistics of this alleged hanging defy all credulity. First of all, the forest scenes in The Wizard of Oz were filmed before the Munchkinland scenes, and thus none of the munchkin actors would yet have been present at MGM. And whether one believes that the figure on the film is a munchkin or a stagehand, it is simply impossible that a human being could have fallen onto a set actively being used for filming, and yet none of the dozens of people present - actors, directors, cameramen, sound technicians, light operators - noticed or reacted to the occurrence. (The tragic incident would also had to have been overlooked by all the directors, editors, film cutters, musicians, and others who worked on the film in post-production as well.) That anyone could believe a scene featuring a real suicide would have been left intact in a classic film for over fifty years is simply incredible.
Thank you!
I never thought it was a real suicide but rather a dark easter egg left in by the crew. I've seen some things left behind in old disney films and other cases regarding older films so it isnt impossible. But alas you're correct, theyd have noticed it so good point
@@atari_hmb "Alas?" You would prefer there had been a death?
@@atari_hmb P.S.: If you were in the crew of a Victor Fleming movie, you didn't mess around!
You read Snopes, eh?
My mom still has the VHS with that scene. I remember seeing it as a kid. I'm watching it now on HBO Max and it has a bird edited in it to cover that scene from a earlier scene when they met Tinman.
@Kefla That's what they want you to think.
Very clever. I love it. Make a debunking video to debunk an old urban legend/hoax of a hanging munchkin only to create a new urban legend/hoax of a creepy face in the static. The acting by the gentleman narrating wasn't superb but still very well done. The little comments and pre-explanations for the poor quality and static were a bit much and ended up giving away the illusion in retrospect but now I'm just being overly critical. But it's the little vocal inflections and small but telling remarks that can be the difference between nailing it versus not quite convincing the audience. But it's not such a bad thing to be a less than perfect deceiver. Most people have a hard time being completely natural while deceiving and to me, that's just an indication that the person is generally not a liar and still has a soul intact. However, this was still fun and I definitely appreciate the creativity and execution overall. God bless.
There's a lot of comments about people seeing comments about the face
I've actually seen the version where the munchkin was hanging. It did exist at one time
That version was clearly edited
It was faked, badly.
The Singer Midgets didn't even set foot on the MGM grounds until a week after this scene was completed.
@@MaskedMan66 it may not be a munchkin but it was a body swinging, seen the scene again today. it was somebody or something, it wasnt no dang bird.

this is actually the remastered version. the original shows something hanging and swinging slowly from side to side.
This is the original. The tree a munchkin is supposedly hanging on is part of a painting. How is someone meant to hang themselves on a tree that’s not real? I’m sure there was some props, but they definitely wouldn’t be able to hold up the weight of a human body, no matter how small. Part of the birds wing even shows up behind the munchkin. It’s clearly edited. It’s a bird, and it always has been.
rae 👁👄👁 so a bird just hangs from a tree moving side to side? shit went down bts back then. I’m going to believe that there was a midget hanging from a “prop” for as long as I live. honestly, anything could happen. we never know.

Bem eu vi um pássaro
While in classic film class in jr. High my drama/classic film class (elective) Mr. GORDON was/is a bright man who worked in the film industry and had the original copy (first edition release) and there is a person hanging in the back, there was no bird. He said that the editor who puts the movie together spliced the wrong scene in (at least it was his excuse but my teacher believed it was intentional because of the way the cast was treated let alone how bad the little people were treated since only a handful spoke English. Plus it is common for editors/splicers to leave in scenes where the actor died preforming on camera. A good example is Ben hur when the guy fall off the chariot and gets trampled to death. Yes, that really happened and he died.
What a load of bollocks! Blanche Sewell put the movie together in precisely the right order. The cast were not treated badly. Most of the Munchkins spoke English because most of them were Americans. The thirty or so men and women who were the core group of the Singer Midgets had come from Austria in 1919, and no doubt spoke English after 20 years here. Actors seldom died on camera-- none died in this movie-- and therefore it was not "common" to leave deaths in movies.
this is the edited vhs tape
It’s the exact VHS release where the hanging-munchkin-myth is supposed to come from. He even makes sure to show that in the beginning of the video.
You’d think literally one person out of the hundreds of crew workers would mention a little person hanging.
My guess is they didn’t have enough money to do re-shoots and they didn’t notice it till they started shooting the scene
@@battleb04n_43 The movie had a budget of nearly three million dollars. Besides which, retakes are unavoidable because you almost never nail anything on the first take, especially not in such a complex film as this. Nobody died on that (or any) set.
Exactly. Never mind hanging, you'd think they'd have noticed someone who wasn't supposed to even be there and wonder how he got past Security on to a closed set.
They must have noticed the hanging munchkin and put a bird on top because something about the bird looks extremely fake
True
I'm pretty sure they did I've seen other versions of the film where it's clearly a body

Youve literally shown the fully colourised version of oz with the bird edited in. This isn't original lol.
The movie was shot in color, and there was a saurus crane, as well as other birds, throughout the Tin Woodman's first scene.
@@MaskedMan66 Yeah, but what I was saying is that, in the original release, it is far less easy to discern that the hanging man is an emu spreading its wings. This video is taken from the later, re-release of the movie, in which the bird has been digitally changed to look more like a bird. There is literally two different releases of the movie, one where the bird looks like a hanging munchkin, and another where the bird is edited to look more like, well, a bird, which is this one.
So it makes little sense why the op would analyse the re-release and not the original and be all like "it's CLEARLY a bird" when he's literally watching the wrong version lol.
@@jamesp3142 There's no hanging man and no emu; the bird was a saurus crane. In the original release, seen in theaters in 1939, the image was sharp and clear. It's film and video copies that got a but muddy, especially when shown on television, but thanks to some carefully-preserved prints and remastering technology, copies now look as good as the first prints from all that time ago. But make no mistake: there is only one version of this movie. Anything you see online that looks like a "hanging object" is a fake from only ten years ago; an isolated clip with CGI put on it.

@@kaywee4200 There was no need to. It was just a saurus crane. Though to be sure, Ray Bolger nearly freaked out on the set because during one break, the crane jumped at him, thinking his straw stuffing would make a good lunch!
@@MaskedMan66 idk there's a lot of things we can't always trust but you believe what you believe, you know what I mean
@@MaskedMan66 I was a young child so about 20 years ago.
I've never seen the original, but we had a copy of the remastered version on VHS. I remember seeing that part when I was growing up, but I thought it was the Cowardly Lion just jumping around in the background of the set.
SO WE JUST GONNA ACT LIKE WE DIDNT JUST SEE JIG SAW WHEN IT BLINKED OUT🤔🤔🔥
Maybe that scary ass face was the face of the ghost of the munchkin that killed himself. Anybody think of that one? Kinda makes you think doesn't it. lol
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THAT
Ghosts aren't real though
@@regularwaterfowl1749 how you know that?
@@pancakezzzz come back after you've seen a ghost. Then we can talk.
You don't have the version with the hanging munchkin buddy, sorry hence the big wing flapping bird in the background. This was the replaced footage. If you have Shudder, they just released season 2 of cursed films and low and behold, the first episode is about the Wizard of Oz and of course they talk about this. There's a hardcore collector on there and he shows the only VHS version that DOES have the alleged hanging munchkin scene. So, if you want to see it for real, go watch cursed films season 2 episode 1 on Shudder.
It's always been a bird dumbass. You can still see the wings clipping around the edit job of the "hanging" version.
Dwarves had yet to have any scenes shot when the forest scenes were being filmed.
Bro its fake. Theres a video debunking the errors. He makes very good points. I have yet to see a version of the hanging that looks legit honestly. The scarecrow whole arms disappears when near the “munchkin” anything glitches near the munchkin.
Face appears when the tape messes up:
Dorothy: I'm heading home now
Indeed
That face is from the exorcist from a unreleased trailer but it got me good the first time tho nice job darek😂
A scaretheater viewer I see? A man of absolute culture
@@failyore2 I pointed it out first not to blow my own trumpet but look in the responses to
Mr!13580742's comment (you will have to hit show more a few times)
DVD and Film Bloke I saw your response and it doesn't matter who pointed it out
I love having just completely ignored the face that popped up during the static... Like what the heck was that.
RENAME THIS VIDEO TO: "I love the Sound of My Own Voice so Skip to 4:55 to See F**k All" seriously 😐
Agreed, it was definitely just a dude talking and wasting everyone's time, playing a shitty video as proof of nothing.
God, I read this 4mins 55secs too late.
Can anyone please explain why there is a face
ccantrell117 I saw it too
Because the majority of humans are born with faces
Captain Howdy.. from the exorcist..
I can clearly tell a Bird from a Haging something in the background, besides, the hanging occurs over the blue background light and it's clearly not standing on the ground while the bird is clearly stood up on the ground in front of some trees... btw, the exorcist face on the video just adds up to the whole mystery behind this scene.
There's no hanging.
Ummm... this isn't the original??
This one is the remastered Wizard of Oz. If you go and watch the ACTUAL original, you will definitely see the hanging munchkin...
Haha! This was total BS. He even added the face right at the exact part. He sure fooled some people though
Cake It Up it's a bird, not a hanging munchkin...

There was never a hanging munchkin. People today have convinced themselves that 1939 was like some kind of dark age - the idea that someone could kill themselves on a film set and it wouldn’t leak is absurd. There were hundreds of people on that set, before the director said action (as with any movie musical) there is a lengthy process of lighting, touching up make up, spacing the choreography amongst otherthings before they even do a first take. For that one sequence, they would’ve been on that set for days. Do people honestly believe in the hours spent on that set that nobody noticed? That they honestly only saw a dead actor after they had printed the film? And the gossip columnists in those days were even worse than today. This movie was a huge, huge deal. One of the biggest books of the century being given the Hollywood musical treatment was huge. It was constantly in the press. If stories of the munchkin that got stuck in the toilet, the original writer being fired (which was not the story the studio released) the original director being fired (again that wasn’t what the studio tried to spin) the munchkins being drunk on set, the wardrobe department having issues with Judy Garlands weight etc etc - made it into the press when the studio didn’t want them to you honestly believe that an actor killing themselces on a set of hundreds of workers did not leak?
It is actually the original, someone actually added the munchkin In to it. If you watch any wizard of oz movie it’s not there.
I always thought it was someone hanging themselves too until I saw it on the big screen back in the day. It's an ostrich.
4:05 I’m more interested to know what that face is right here! I watched this exact same VHS over and over again as a kid. If there was a hanging man in that scene I would have noticed. Instead, I remember noticing a large bird in that scene and wondering what it was. The answer is a crane. If there’s a hanging man, which I highly doubt, it must have been on a tv or VHS release before the 1989 release.
The face is from "The Exorcist." If you watch the whole of the Tin Woodman's intro sequence, you'll see lots of birds.
4:06. That's the face of the dead face who hung himself during this movie. They added the crane back in the 60s. This is the ghost face of the dead man haunting and cursing this movie. Reason Judy died so young and had troubles after this movie.
THANK YOU. Finally someone on UA-cam who isn't just using the same doctored video
It's obvious Derek added the face because 1) other Wizard of Oz VHSs don't have it, 2) it's the same face from the original Exorcist, not to mention it's probably copyrighted, and 3) he was staring at the screen with his eyes on the munchkin. I'm sure he would have seen the face himself and addressed it, which he didn't. It was a good one though. ;)
There was no Munchkin.
DUDE ITS ONE AM HERE AND I THAT FACE SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME
yk something is scary when it scares the man behind the slaughter
@@Charlie-oc9yo yes
Man, it's legit. You need the white original collectors edition with the orange/red wizard of Oz at the top. Just watched it. That blue 50yr anniversary one has the bird. Find the right copy and check for yourself. It's there.
now I'm going to have nightmares about your ghost face possessed vcr player,tbh I expected the exorcist face to pop up and scream when you put the tape in and then I saw the face when the video was tracking so I wasn't far off!
did anyone else see that creepy face when the vhs started messing up?
This was the 50th year addition, in the original there is no bird, they added it in to cover up
Research has been conducted viewing microfiche of obituaries in California newspapers during 1938, the year of filming. Indeed, one Harold “Stubby” Hensold, who stood 4’ 0” and was an extra in Oz, perished during that period of time from “windpipe constriction by garrote”, according to the LA county coroner. Although there was no mention of it occurring during filming, many members of the cast recalled that Harry seemed despondent for several days after not being cast as a Lollipop Kid despite a last minute plea to the film’s director, before he “stopped coming to the studio altogether”. He stopped coming because of his suicide by strangulation. After this scene was shot, the director and two stage hands promptly cleared the soundstage and cut Harry down, according to one of the stage workers, Willie Moses from Alabama, who wept like a child as he revealed the secret that he kept for a lifetime while he received hospice care for malignant biliary cancer, according to the Montgomery Star Gazette. Even Judy Garland was never privy to Mr. Hensold’s quiet passing as he hung himself from the catwalk above the soundstage using a length of common cotton rope of exactly the span found missing from Harry’s own backyard clothesline. Forensic studies have since confirmed that, in proportion to the soundstage trees, the hanging object was, in fact, between 3.8 feet and 4.1 feet long, validating Mr. Moses’s death bed revelation. Because the film was wildly over budget, and to cover up any speculation as to his personal involvement in “pushing Harry over the brink”, as Willie put it, the director chose to use the footage rather than do a costly reshoot, and audiences were none the wiser. Eventually, in the remastered 1989 version, out of respect to the Hensold heirs, and to prevent today’s more sophisticated children from focusing on the tragedy, a California condor was filmed at the Oakland Zoo and edited over the “dead Munchkin”.
Where'd you get all of this? Sounds interesting.
Source?
Here’s my theory
I think that there was a munchkin hanging himself because if you read all of the articles, it just says it was the shadow of a crane in the back. But why would they hide it with a bird. If it was just a crane they wouldn’t of hid it! Sus
Um…a crane is a bird…
Stupid bitch.
Munchkins had yet to have been called to set during the forest scenes. Those trees are part of a 2D painted background.
It's not a crane (as in construction equipment) but a sarus crane (a bird).
Okay, so this is the remastered edition with the bird. The original VHS release clearly shows a small figure swinging from a rope. A very clear video clip of this can be seen at the Derek C channel. I have run both copies side by side and both are identical except..... one has the small hanging figure and the other clearly has a large crane like bird. It is very strange and it does look like the bird was added later to hide the hanging Munchkin! This mystery keeps building.
The original VHS shows what was on the set in 1938, namely a saurus crane. Remastering doesn't mean monkeying with the movie's content. The Singer Midgets were not even in Hollywood when the Tin Woodman's first scene was completed.
@@MaskedMan66 You are obviously wrong. It's not hard to find the original footage. No crane. Stop acting like you know more than you do.
@@BigL231 I know what the people who made the movie knew, as does anyone who reads the right books. It's a simple matter of common sense; when dead bodies turn up, people stop what they are doing and call the police. That's what happens in the real world.
What you erroneously call "the original footage" is a many-times-proven fake created by a UA-camr within the last fifteen years.
4:00 YOU CAN SEE A OZING WHITE FACE!!! 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Looks like a set up. To get people to mention the face.. Well done
Paul Walker I miss you. R.i.p.😭
The reason why u didnt see it is bc they noticed it in the scene, and retook the scene but somehow the original scene got leaked and u can see a hanging body
you have the remastered 50 anniversary vcr from 1989
So?
+Henry Stanley Its not the original movie its the re-edited version. The original came out in 1939 i do believe and you can clearly see a person hanging in the back round.
I remember this distinctly too! We were watching in school and everyone was talking about it. I said "no guys it's just a bird" then someone said "no that's the wrong scene". It was the ending scene when they meet the lion. We all huddled up to the tv and lo and behold in the upper left corner of the screen you can clearly see a guy swinging from trees. Probably a stage hand. The remastered version blacked it out with shadows.
yeah it says 1939 on the packet to. I just find it scary and strange that the picture went all bad right at the perfect moment , some face appeared , then it changed to the bird.
So there's a crane way in the background? In comparison to the people the crane is not only the 'only' non part given animal in the entire movie, & way practically out of scene, but would be about 10 feet tall if standing next to tye actors. Something seems not right!
The first night I saw that face, I woke from a night terror, I sprung up and turned on the light just to make sure I was safe. Since then I haven't been able to sleep restfully, I toss and turn and I think about the face. I wake up soaked in cold sweat and paranoia. I hope you're happy.
best comment EVER!!
bahahahaa!
He has the remastered version. You can see the bird flap its wings. But in the original original, yes there is a dead Munchkin hanging. Yet they have covered it up so well that there is very little versions with it in the frame.
I just wanna say something …
One of the people on set broke the dogs paw 💔🥺
Not this set. It was when they were filming the scenes in the West; one of the Winkie soldiers accidentally stepped on Terry's paw. It's likely it was only sprained, though, since she was back on the job in two weeks.
The face is jigsaw
I saw jigsaw too. Scary!
No matter how many times I try to see anything else, all I can see is a bird extending its wings. 🤷🏻♂️
You do realize that they added the bird in the "remastered" editions right? It's not that hard to insert blue color back there and put a bird's wing.
Except it is. We’re talking about a film that’s 80 years old. This seemingly "remastered" version from 1989 looks the exact same as the recent 4K release. It just wouldn’t have been possible to replace an entire part of the background on three different negatives this astonishingly convincing in the 80s. It would have cost way too much.
@@robinanwaldt "it was have cost way too much". You say that as if this is not one of the highest grossing movies of all time, LoL. Come on, to them, editing in a bird is merely a small price to pay to ensure that one of the greatest movies of all time, remains that way.
... once again the bird has always been there. No hanging figure.
