It did! The part where the elephants march around the edge of the screen, especially, was EXTREMELY revolutionary at the time. No one had ever seen anything like it. It's a famously new and creative use of the medium.
My dad is 87 years old and he was 10 when this movie was released, so I told him that a live-action remake is in production. He said: If I don't see a proper pink elephants scene, that movie will be bullshit!
I remember being equal parts creeped out and fascinated as a kid. This sequence definitely had a lot to do with making Dumbo a standout movie even if it had nothing to do with the plot. I wish there was a feature available that had the animators talking about drawing and putting together that scene. What the idea was, what they were trying to create, how it came to life, etc. Bc these guys absolutely made history here and it must have been a special experience.
Maybe they were just trying to show off their animation skills here. Disney's saying, "Look at how much more fluent this animation is compared to Snow White"
I remember when I first watched this with my grandpa when I was 7. He looked at me and said "I used to see pink elephants every Sunday mornin". My innocent mind interpreted what he said as "Pap-Pap watched Dumbo every Sunday" and not "Sarah, Pap-Pap got shitfaced every Saturday night".
Actually, it has a good point. Somehow, Dumbo has to decide to fly. If he wasn't boozed up, he probably wouldn't have gotten the idea that he could fly away from the hallucinations.
Actually the lyrics are this: ¿Quién es? ¿Quién va? Ya empiezan a desfilar, viene y van mira qué saltos dan Serán quizá parientes de satanás Ya están, ahí Entorno a la cama van al revés como acrobatas Terror me dan me quieren enloquecer Qué voy a hacer, Qué voy a hacer Ya no me puedo embriagar Al que abusa del licor se le aparece una visión son elefantes en color que espantan y dan terror Yo que al diablo desafié y que la cola le arrranqué los paquidermos tricolor han hecho que pierda mi gran valor ayy que horror Déjenme en paz no puedo más ya se van, ya se van las ánimas del terrooooor Las ánimas..... Las ánimas...Las ánimas
I'm not a huge Dumbo fan, but this scene. Man! Absolutely fantastic. The music, the animation. Nothing nowadays could top this. This was all drawn by hand. No computers or cgi back then. Its amazing.
Hand drawn animation tends to hold up very well as an art form since it’s advanced as much as it reasonably can. Unlike newer technologies that are constantly advancing and becoming obsolete inside a decade. The downside to hand drawn is that it’s also obscenely expensive as you have to have a team of artists going frame by frame. Technology has helped automate the process somewhat with key frames but again there’s only so much you can do before you loose the hand drawn aesthetic.
There's a lot of comments about how people found this creepy when they watched it as children, and I can see how that would be, but I also think that we should really talk more about how creative and impressive this sequence is. Like damn, this came out in the 40s? The animators at Disney must have been very skilled.
They were truly pioneers, inventing new technologies to create art that human eyes could have never seen. I think the psychedelic aspects are also ahead of their time. Some of this imagery is ripped straight out of the mainstream from a quarter century in the future.
This is my favorite scene from any movie made by Walt Disney. I can’t get over how freakin cool it is! Even more than 80 years later, it’s still a freakin masterpiece. :)
For those of you who don't know "seeing pink elephants" is a euphemism for drunken hallucination caused by alcoholic hallucinosis or delirium tremens. The term dates back to at least the early 20th century, emerging from earlier idioms about snakes and other creatures. An alcoholic character in Jack London's 1913 novel John Barleycorn is said to hallucinate "blue mice and pink elephants".
There is a Belgian brewery called Huyghe! They have a brew called delirium tremens, on the bottle there is a pink elephant. Thanks for the information!!!!
I remember watching this as a kid and being all creeped out. Meanwhile, my dad's just like "I don't know what Dumbo and that rat were drinking or how strong it was, but I want some."
I think this entire saying was to demonstrate what you can do with animation. So much fluidity, something that becomes one thing transforms into another. To a lot of people this is scary of how surreal it is. But this is in all honesty the best demonstration on what you can do with animation. In the span of nearly 5 minutes they show so much
Thanks I hate it. Honestly though, that was Disney at the time. Bambi & similar animated movies had a lot of "animation porn", which nowadays wouldn't really work. This didn't need to be in the movie, this wasn't to advance the plot*, it was to demonstrate the animation. It's pretty, but that doesn't mean it's good (coherently).
LuckoDaStars oh yeah. This is what happens when an animator or animators just let loose and let the imagination run wild and put their skills to the test. After all, Animation is a medium where the limits are literally ones imagination.
Beginning of LSD. You figure this was made in the 40s/50s or older? Not sure exact without looking. But if older then 50s... It would be heroine. Wizard of Oz cast was fucked up on that shit lol. Especially Dorthy. But this is nothing compared to Yellow Submarine(the Beatles cartoon) far as trip effects, but still great.
There was a reason for that Kids were gonna watch this, and I mean young kids So if he actually made that scene in the remake creepy and disturbing You'll probally see some kids crying or covering their eyes because they were scared
copying is not "doing justice". whats the point of a remake without handdrawn animations if you just redo the thing with ppl? I think they paid homage to this scene in a tasteful way with some subdued melodies without upsetting the pace of the remake with this old school acid vibe this here had. hell, they could have tried to redo this, but it would never have been as creative and authentic, so Im glad they didnt even try
This is weird because not many alcoholic drinks can give you hallucinations and Dumbo was clearly drinking champagne in the scene prior which isn't a drink known to cause hallucinations
As a teenager when I re-watched this for the first time in years I noticed something about that man made out of elephant heads. The one in the groin area doesn't have a trunk 😂. I can picture Disney watching the animators as they drew the frames back in the late thirties and 1940 and he saw one of the animators had originally drawn it with a trunk and said "Whoop! We can't use that!" 🤣😂🤣😂
Same ! When I was a kid I couldn’t wait for this scene to be over since this scene use to scare the living crap out of me . Now I like this scene , and honestly I would choose the original over the live action any day!
The eye on the pyramid in the dollar bill was put there in 1935 The movie Dumbo came out in 1941 The Twilight show came out in 1959 So Dumbo couldn't have reference the Twilight Zone if anything both Dumbo and the Twilight Zone referenced the eye of Ra aka the all seeing eye of lucifer on the pyramid on the 1 dollar bill. or it could just be a confidence There is also the third eye 👁️ that people claim is opened when they do psychedelic drugs. So it can just be that But the 3rd might actually what the Epyptians we're referring to when they venerated the eye of god, the pagan sun god Ra. Later on known as the eye of Horus. Alester Crowley said I'm his book, that Horus pecks out the eyes of Jesus. So Horus isn't exactly a nice guy. at least not in the Occult world of mythology. Obviously it's all fiction, right?
This is really a masterclass in animation. And for how old this scene is, and for how amazing it still looks. Especially 2:53 and on, just amazing for this scene being older than my grandparents
Then that shows you need to watch more movies. Especially if you judge a movie's quality by... weird animation and acid trips, of all things. Rather than, you know, a good plot, likable characters, etc.
Music to eat Froot to Acid wasnt available recreationally until the 60s, it was first synthesized a couple years prior to the making of this movie in europe, and the pink elephants refer to drunken hallucinations
I haven't watched Dumbo in forever, not since I was around three years old or so. Watching this as someone old enough to be drinking, I cannot help but admire this sequence for a slew of different reasons. I can understand why this terrified people, with just how visually chaotic the whole sequence is, especially with the random bursts of elephants exploding. When the song gets to its lyrical segment, it very much spells out that this is supposed to be disturbing, for some reason. But me? I can't help but just enjoy it. I don't remember being scared by this as a child, and I'm still not scared by it. I just can't help but find the elephants adorable and easy on the eyes, and especially I find them funny with just how uncontrolled the sequence is in terms of creativity. It just does whatever it wants, no rhyme or reason. If it wants to adapt elephants into some other culture, be it in good taste or not, it does it by turning elephants into camels, pyramids, and belly dancers because why not. If it wants to have the elephants dance or turn into vehicles or asexually reproduce, the animators made that happen, too. Old cartoons were trippy and pushed the envelope in a way that paved the way for this, quite frankly, innovative sequence of animation. I want to know what the creative process behind this sequence was. Considering that Disney animated films were written while they were animated, what led them to make all of these particular visual choices? Especially when, as everyone knows, it hardly has anything to do with the film's narrative. At least not directly. I have to find the time to watch this film all over again, someday. I need to analyze this scene in the context of the story, and finally make sense of it.
I'm going to cringe if he does because HE would put it in because thats who he is. This scene is just pure disturbing and does not serve any purpose other than drug use.
The way it happens is the animators do a rough storyboard with notes on the mood and hand it to a composer who composes the music to match the energy of each scene. Then the animators have a score that they animate to. There's often times notes from the composer regarding where he thinks a scene needs to be added or changed to make the music flow better. It's a really cool process where the visuals inform the music and the music inspires the life of the visuals
I mean yeah Although acid didn’t exist yet But it’s shockingly similar nontheless Edit: yes it was invented but it wouldn’t be introduced to the public for another 6 years
For 1941 this is way ahead of it's time. Sounds like something Brian Wilson would've done on his kooky Smile period. Really psychedelic and progressive. And also great sound quality to have been done with a light burning a sound wave on the side of the film. Very cool. Also great movie! This scene never scared me.
I think it's brilliant that Walt and the others who worked on the movie took the idea of "pink elephants" (alcohol induced hallucinations) and the idea of a group of elephants being referred to as a "parade" to the most literal extreme imaginable: ethereal pink elephants on parade. I love subtle but clever jokes like that.
Ok I'm sorry you guys were right. Since writing this comment I have learned more about what goes on in animation studios. It was foolish of me to write a bold and ignorant claim without doing research. My apologies.
I remember when i was a kid, we had that channel that kept replaying this movie every sometime, i don't quite remember these stuff it was like 10 years ago, i just mean that i used to watch it over and over at one point of my childhood, and for some reason i was OBSESSED with this scene, i had it downloaded on my mom's phone or smth and kept watching it whenever i was bored And now that I'm somewhat close to being an artist myself, i found that what inspires my art the most is this scene, like, I'm not proud of this but i like to imagine my projects and not actually work on or make them, and whenever i do, it always, ALWAYS looks like this in my head, and i never knew why i imagined things to be this way, until at one random night of my life, i remembered that this exists and here i am! Knowing the answer for all of the nonsense that happens inside my brain, which is really crazy to me and feels quiet good now that I'm an adult who at least knows what the meaning of "inspiration" is
I loved this sequence as a kid. All those crazy elephants changing forms and shapes, transforming and doing all kinds of crazy shit always excited me since i was five.
Ricky Shum well, learn this. Those two movies were done by 3D animation, which is a lot easier to do than 2D animation. And in today's age, we have better technology to work with, which makes it automatically easier to make, while this scene is done frame by frame, and computers didn't exist.
Ricky Shum The animation in Trolls and Moana was CGI. It isn't beautiful, the water was kinda cool, but why do you need realistic looking water in animation?
Oh, they def. tried to scare the kids and adults to some degree (not terrify out of their mind of course): the bottom line was kind-of meant to be "alcohol is a scary drug these are going to be the effects" but in a comedic way. They use a lot of very obvious phobia-elements to emphasize that also noticeable since they put effort into the crisp skin-creeping sound effects and the typical Ghost-type music as well. Back then Disney was a lot less family-policed than today. Artists were allowed to have a bit of creative fun and we all grew up perfectly fine too :)
oh man knowing that tim burton is apparently making a live action version of this film, knowing his.......artistic methods.........this scene is going to be even more horrifying.
I think The Black Cauldron had some scarier scenes in it. And The Black Hole had an ending where it showed the bad guy in hell fused inside his robot for all eternity.
This is frightening even now. I thought this illustrates Dumbo’s depression. How he felt about humans and other elephants treat him. He and his little friends drunk mind exposes their unconsiousness. So they see same thing. /they felt same pressure/
@Mÿ Pï Dë Might have been peyote but it doesn't produce many visuals (in swim's experience) nothing like this at least. Magic mushrooms weren't known to Western culture and science, the ones making Dumbo, until 1955 when Maria Sabina gave them to researcher Gordon Wasson. Until then they were little more than hypothesized but not founded in science (excluding Amanitas which doesn't produce true hallucinations in swim's experiences).
@Mÿ Pï Dë I know exactly what you mean about amanitas! I got no visuals but strong mental trip and body high from mesc. I did it several times a couple very high dose.
This was my favorite part of Dumbo! For a while as a kid I barely knew what the ending was like because I'd fast forward to this part and get bored before the movie because the rest of it wasn't nearly as exciting lol
I'm starting to have doubts about the remake cause it says here that it won't have Timothy Mouse or the crows :( www.thisisinsider.com/disney-live-action-remakes-2017-2
This scene predates the existence of LSD (and the widespread knowledge of hallucinogens in general) by 14 years. Unless the guys at Disney had somehow gained first-hand experience with peyote or psilocybin (unlikely), it seems they're probably remembering "fever nightmares". Before the era of widespread vaccinations, antibiotics and Tylenol, there was no cure for a bad fever other than "sweating it out", which I'm sure anybody alive in 1944 had experienced many times as a child. This often caused dehydration and delirious bad dreams, halfway between a nightmare and a hallucination. Weird how similar the brain operates when you're crossing wires randomly, either with fever or drugs. Those random bursts of color and dancing animals wouldn't be seen by the general population until the hippies discovered lysergic acid diethylamide and turned the angry pink elephants into happy (though oddly shaped) multicolored Grateful Dead bears.
Amazing to see those animations come to life even after more than 80 years, just an amazing art flex from Disney animators on this scene, you can actually appreciate the animations, the style, the skill the timing! just amazing, even for today standards !
Writers: How traumatizing should we make this? Director: Take these drugs and record whatever you say while you're tripping out. Writers: ... and? Director: That's it.
As a kid I found it creepy and a bit off putting. But as an adult I've come to rewatch this alot truely appreciating the amazing creativity with the art and music. To this day it's by far my favorite Disney movie. Out of all the old disney movies this left the biggest impression still to this day.
Look out! Look out Pink elephants on parade Here they come Hippety hoppety They're here and there Pink elephants everywhere Look out! Look out! They're walking around the bed On their head Clippety cloppety Arrayed in braid Pink elephants on parade What'll I do What'll I do What an unusual view I can stand the sight of worms And look at microscopic germs But technicolor pachyderms is really too much for me I am not the type to faint When things are odd or things are quaint But seeing things you know that ain't Can certainly give you an awful fright What a sight! Chase 'em away! Chase 'em away I'm afraid, need your aid Pink elephants on parade Pink elephants Pink elephants Pink elephants
It's been 20 years since I first saw this scene, and I still have no clue what the fuck's going on.... But at least I'm old enough to appreciate the quality of the animation.

2:14 Holy shit, anyone else want that thing to be a boss in a Kingdom Hearts game? Like they travel to a dream dimension or nightmare realm and Dumbo's nightmares unleashes this multi-headed monstrosity? That would be awesome.
Disney execs: "We need a drunk scene in our movie. Animators: Think really hard about this movie, take this peyote and write down everything you see!" Animators: "You... got... peyote?" Disney execs: "Don't ask questions."
Walt Disney actually didn't want this scene in the movie after seeing the storyboard. The animators finished it while he was away for an extended period. He must have like it... nobody got fired. ;)
Their black, soulless eyes always terrified me as a child
I actually liked them ;-;
OMG SAME
That was the ONLY thing that scared you in this?
Same.
How many of them are there?

Actually, it has a good point. Somehow, Dumbo has to decide to fly. If he wasn't boozed up, he probably wouldn't have gotten the idea that he could fly away from the hallucinations.
Apparently Pink Elephants was a test for Fantasia but was discarded when Disney changed the format and direction for it.
It's a scene that comes out of absolutely nowhere and is way over the top in terms of visuals, and after it's done, it's never mentioned again.
The animators just had a field day coming up with this scene

In the spanish version this song is even scarier, it says things like "Who are they?, relatives of satan maybe?"
In spanish the song is called
"Spirits of terror" and it is indeed much scarier than the original
I watched it as a kid in Spanish 😂
Actually the lyrics are this:
¿Quién es? ¿Quién va?
Ya empiezan a desfilar,
viene y van mira qué saltos dan
Serán quizá parientes de satanás
Ya están, ahí
Entorno a la cama van al revés
como acrobatas
Terror me dan me quieren enloquecer
Qué voy a hacer, Qué voy a hacer
Ya no me puedo embriagar
Al que abusa del licor
se le aparece una visión
son elefantes en color
que espantan y dan terror
Yo que al diablo desafié
y que la cola le arrranqué
los paquidermos tricolor
han hecho que pierda mi gran valor
ayy que horror
Déjenme en paz
no puedo más
ya se van, ya se van
las ánimas del terrooooor
Las ánimas..... Las ánimas...Las ánimas

I saw the movie today, and that scene with the bubbles was nothing. What a joke.
I HATED the scene with the bubbles in the live action! Seriously it was trash, nothing compared to THIS!
I feel like this is the kind of thing that would never please some fans in a remake.
I guess drunk baby elephants are too much for people today lol
I'm just saying how would you replicate THIS in a full live action movie
Isnt it absolutely crazy how this is 80+ years old and it holds up INCREDIBLY
As someone with ADHD (terrible perception of time), this was a one hit knock out punch 👍
Holds up better than most live action movies today.

Well I thought about this and I would just be confused. I'd be thinking "why did 4 hugeass elephants just form out of a bubble that Dumbo blew?"
I don't know about here in North America, but in Europe they were to busy fighting a war to see a movie.
This was a literal masterclass in animation! And it was all drawn by hand! Absolutely groundbreaking.
Creators kinda forgot that Dumbo is drunk from alcohol, not high af from LSD....
Well alcohol certainly hasnt forgotten about them.
@Pilot Adventurer It was a Four Loko 😂🤣
LSD would not have been invented yet, so more than likely this was inspired by a strong reaction to Absinthe
this is a depiction of delirium tremens from alcohol withdrawal, seeing pink elephants is a nickname for it.
maybe it had lsd in the alcohol it makes sense

You'll probally see some kids crying or covering their eyes because they were scared
It’s because people are scared of little cartoons and movies, when they should fear the threat of a WW3
copying is not "doing justice". whats the point of a remake without handdrawn animations if you just redo the thing with ppl? I think they paid homage to this scene in a tasteful way with some subdued melodies without upsetting the pace of the remake with this old school acid vibe this here had. hell, they could have tried to redo this, but it would never have been as creative and authentic, so Im glad they didnt even try
"Seeing pink elephants" is a term used when someone is hallucinating when incredibly drunk
This is weird because not many alcoholic drinks can give you hallucinations and Dumbo was clearly drinking champagne in the scene prior which isn't a drink known to cause hallucinations
Delirium Tremens.
You sure you arent just making that up to sound smart?
@@orionrazilov5994 Maybe there was some fungus in there.
@@orionrazilov5994 it’s referring to the hallucinations one can have after stopping as a heavy drinker
As a teenager when I re-watched this for the first time in years I noticed something about that man made out of elephant heads. The one in the groin area doesn't have a trunk 😂. I can picture Disney watching the animators as they drew the frames back in the late thirties and 1940 and he saw one of the animators had originally drawn it with a trunk and said "Whoop! We can't use that!" 🤣😂🤣😂
This part used to scare the ever-living hell out of me as a kid.
Now it's my favourite part XD
Edit: Whoa!! Thanks so much for the likes!!
Becky C. Saaaame
Was always my favorite
Same lol 😂
Same ! When I was a kid I couldn’t wait for this scene to be over since this scene use to scare the living crap out of me . Now I like this scene , and honestly I would choose the original over the live action any day!
Same
Fun fact: A group of Elephants is actually called a Parade.
Game changer
All we need to do is paint them pink
And it will all make sense
How did I miss this! Thats so clever.
oh so thats why ITS called pink elephants on parade
I also love how the belly dancer randomly turns into a floating circle, and then a twilight zone eyeball
Finally, someone knows twilight zone
YAAAAY, SOMEONE ELSE WHO KNOWS TWILIGHT ZONE😄😄😄😁
@@nippersnippers9178 (Hums the theme and do the bongo rolls)
The eye on the pyramid in the dollar bill was put there in 1935
The movie Dumbo came out in 1941
The Twilight show came out in 1959
So Dumbo couldn't have reference the Twilight Zone
if anything both Dumbo and the Twilight Zone referenced the eye of Ra aka the all seeing eye of lucifer on the pyramid on the 1 dollar bill.
or it could just be a confidence
There is also the third eye 👁️ that people claim is opened when they do psychedelic drugs.
So it can just be that
But the 3rd might actually what the Epyptians we're referring to when they venerated the eye of god, the pagan sun god Ra.
Later on known as the eye of Horus.
Alester Crowley said I'm his book, that Horus pecks out the eyes of Jesus.
So Horus isn't exactly a nice guy.
at least not in the Occult world of mythology.
Obviously it's all fiction, right?
TWILIGHT ZONE MENTION 👀🚪🪆⏱️WHAT THE FUCK IS ETHICAL MOVIE PRODUCTION
This is really a masterclass in animation. And for how old this scene is, and for how amazing it still looks. Especially 2:53 and on, just amazing for this scene being older than my grandparents
This has to stay exactly the same in the remake otherwise I’ll be pissed off
Kayla Grech Tim Burton is directing the remake, so it will probably be just as surreal.
Kayla Grech nah, u know Tim is going to alter it. But u gotta trust him.. only because when he's gud ... he's really gud

@Tianna Carlson yep
This shows how much times have changed. Nowadays you'd never see a Disney movie with a nightmare scene based on the hallucinations of a drunk child
is that a good thing?
Kylie probably
Tell that to The good dinosaur
Then that shows you need to watch more movies. Especially if you judge a movie's quality by... weird animation and acid trips, of all things. Rather than, you know, a good plot, likable characters, etc.
Music to eat Froot to Acid wasnt available recreationally until the 60s, it was first synthesized a couple years prior to the making of this movie in europe, and the pink elephants refer to drunken hallucinations
I haven't watched Dumbo in forever, not since I was around three years old or so. Watching this as someone old enough to be drinking, I cannot help but admire this sequence for a slew of different reasons. I can understand why this terrified people, with just how visually chaotic the whole sequence is, especially with the random bursts of elephants exploding. When the song gets to its lyrical segment, it very much spells out that this is supposed to be disturbing, for some reason. But me? I can't help but just enjoy it.
I don't remember being scared by this as a child, and I'm still not scared by it. I just can't help but find the elephants adorable and easy on the eyes, and especially I find them funny with just how uncontrolled the sequence is in terms of creativity. It just does whatever it wants, no rhyme or reason. If it wants to adapt elephants into some other culture, be it in good taste or not, it does it by turning elephants into camels, pyramids, and belly dancers because why not. If it wants to have the elephants dance or turn into vehicles or asexually reproduce, the animators made that happen, too. Old cartoons were trippy and pushed the envelope in a way that paved the way for this, quite frankly, innovative sequence of animation.
I want to know what the creative process behind this sequence was. Considering that Disney animated films were written while they were animated, what led them to make all of these particular visual choices? Especially when, as everyone knows, it hardly has anything to do with the film's narrative. At least not directly.
I have to find the time to watch this film all over again, someday. I need to analyze this scene in the context of the story, and finally make sense of it.
TIM BURTON BETTER PUT THIS IN HIS REMAKE GOD DAMN IT.
He's gonna ruin it. It might be in it, it just won't be like this :(
Have you even seen the trailer.
I'm going to cringe if he does because HE would put it in because thats who he is. This scene is just pure disturbing and does not serve any purpose other than drug use.
based on the trailers the pink elephants are bubbles floating through the air
Kind of a few restrictions, what the 21st century and all
The fact this is voted one of the scariest scenes for kids is so weird to me! I absolutely adored it and still do to this day 😂
I used to like it’s trippyness of the animation lol
@@JaKack literally the best part about it 😂
It's my favorite part too! Always has been.
Same its kind of like the boat scene from Willy Wonka and I thought that was hilarious
I was terrified by this animation. The empty eyes, the wobbly face and the rapid changing colors made all of this scary af.
The orchestra and animators were clearly communicating perfectly with each other because both the music and visuals are in sync flawlessly!
The way it happens is the animators do a rough storyboard with notes on the mood and hand it to a composer who composes the music to match the energy of each scene. Then the animators have a score that they animate to. There's often times notes from the composer regarding where he thinks a scene needs to be added or changed to make the music flow better. It's a really cool process where the visuals inform the music and the music inspires the life of the visuals
@@RogueAstro85 Nice, didn't know that!
What'll I do?!?! What'll I do?!?! What an usual view!
When you are high as hell of acid but you have to finish the scene anyways
LITERALLY SAME LMAO
I mean yeah
Although acid didn’t exist yet
But it’s shockingly similar nontheless
Edit: yes it was invented but it wouldn’t be introduced to the public for another 6 years
For 1941 this is way ahead of it's time. Sounds like something Brian Wilson would've done on his kooky Smile period. Really psychedelic and progressive. And also great sound quality to have been done with a light burning a sound wave on the side of the film. Very cool. Also great movie! This scene never scared me.
Absolutely terrified me as a young kid, but now, love the musicianship and animation that went into this.
one of the scariest scene in cartoon history
for real though 😂 this scared me as a kid
Me: oh hey this isn’t so scary as everyone says it is
*gets to the part with the elephant made of elephant heads*
Me: ok I take that back!
Romania Da Nerdy Zoroark you can’t understand our fear if u didn’t watch Dumbo as a kid 😂😂
you: no fears

you: one fear
I am now 13 and this still scares the living shit out of me so when my brother makes me watch with him I cover my face during this part
That's a lots of elephants heads
I think it's brilliant that Walt and the others who worked on the movie took the idea of "pink elephants" (alcohol induced hallucinations) and the idea of a group of elephants being referred to as a "parade" to the most literal extreme imaginable: ethereal pink elephants on parade. I love subtle but clever jokes like that.
dumbo really got *this* drunk at like 4 days old
HAHA! It's funny and TRUE!
This isn't drunk. This is LSD.

This was so ahead of it’s time. I wish cartoons nowadays were still hand drawn and made by skilled animators.
They still are skilled, just don't use rubber hose.
They still skilled
how rude of you to imply that the current overworked and underpaid 3D animators aren’t skilled when they very much are
Ok I'm sorry you guys were right. Since writing this comment I have learned more about what goes on in animation studios. It was foolish of me to write a bold and ignorant claim without doing research. My apologies.

+Bobby Cobble Definitely.
HikariMichi42 Good thing that Dumbo and Timothy didn't use the joint.
Lord Jadus ya I miss these Disney animations
I remember when i was a kid, we had that channel that kept replaying this movie every sometime, i don't quite remember these stuff it was like 10 years ago, i just mean that i used to watch it over and over at one point of my childhood, and for some reason i was OBSESSED with this scene, i had it downloaded on my mom's phone or smth and kept watching it whenever i was bored
And now that I'm somewhat close to being an artist myself, i found that what inspires my art the most is this scene, like, I'm not proud of this but i like to imagine my projects and not actually work on or make them, and whenever i do, it always, ALWAYS looks like this in my head, and i never knew why i imagined things to be this way, until at one random night of my life, i remembered that this exists and here i am! Knowing the answer for all of the nonsense that happens inside my brain, which is really crazy to me and feels quiet good now that I'm an adult who at least knows what the meaning of "inspiration" is
Surrealism at it's finest. This terrified me when I first saw it, but it is really cool.
2:37 i can't get over how smooth the transformations are, so freaking cool
@kaka bumbum 420 ok???
yep and we'll likely never see anything of the sort again. Hand drawn animation has been dead for decades
I legit had to slow it down to see why it was so smooth.
What's the pyramid got to do with drinking and memories.
@@Venom70787 this is what you call a mindfuck. Nothing connects to anything and it fucks with your mind.
I loved this sequence as a kid. All those crazy elephants changing forms and shapes, transforming and doing all kinds of crazy shit always excited me since i was five.
How did this sequence excite you? I was and still is absolutely terrified!
Same I’ve always had a special adoration for the bizarre😂
Same
Me too. As a kid I remember trying to draw some if these scenes.
this scene helped me fall asleep as a child. this scene is very trippy and sleepy.
The absolute nightmares this gave me as a kid, and now it’s fantastic. Still a level of creepy, but I can appreciate it now.
Dude you should listen the Spanish version and his lyrics they were way worse...
I wanna be afraid, but I'm busy marveling at how amazing this animation is.
I was the same when I first saw this...I was marveled by the quality from a 40's or 30's film from walt
No! Animation Is Still Good Today! The Animation In Trolls And Moana Was Stunning! Suck On That!
Ricky Shum well, learn this. Those two movies were done by 3D animation, which is a lot easier to do than 2D animation. And in today's age, we have better technology to work with, which makes it automatically easier to make, while this scene is done frame by frame, and computers didn't exist.
Ricky Shum The animation in Trolls and Moana was CGI. It isn't beautiful, the water was kinda cool, but why do you need realistic looking water in animation?
Honestly i was shown this at the age of 7 and 3 years later i wanted to become an animator... now im 14 and actually making animations...
I don’t think they were ever trying to scare kids I think this was just suppose to be a creative art sequence to pad the run time
Sadie Stranks Never thought it that way before
It's really good when we put the trauma aside honestly
Oh, they def. tried to scare the kids and adults to some degree (not terrify out of their mind of course): the bottom line was kind-of meant to be "alcohol is a scary drug these are going to be the effects" but in a comedic way. They use a lot of very obvious phobia-elements to emphasize that also noticeable since they put effort into the crisp skin-creeping sound effects and the typical Ghost-type music as well. Back then Disney was a lot less family-policed than today. Artists were allowed to have a bit of creative fun and we all grew up perfectly fine too :)
You could make that argument about literally anything animated on screen, so it doesn't hold much water.
That does make sense especially at 2:30 and on.
This is literally a fever dream. I just love that it’s a whimsical fever dreaming that, yes, was actually made in early WW2.
2:28 anyone else getting a Dr. Seuss vibe from the camelephant?
Yes, quite a bit of the imagery has a Dr. Seuss flavor to it.

LittleDeez It was billed as “the most delightful Disney sequence ever made”.
This is frightening even now. I thought this illustrates Dumbo’s depression. How he felt about humans and other elephants treat him. He and his little friends drunk mind exposes their unconsiousness. So they see same thing. /they felt same pressure/
Lulu Desu I literally never thought of it like that I just thought it was creepy
Dumbo: 1941
LSD psychological effects discovered: 1943
I'll have a glass of whatever they had in the writer's room to come up with this.
*Surprised Pikachu face*
@Mÿ Pï Dë Might have been peyote but it doesn't produce many visuals (in swim's experience) nothing like this at least. Magic mushrooms weren't known to Western culture and science, the ones making Dumbo, until 1955 when Maria Sabina gave them to researcher Gordon Wasson. Until then they were little more than hypothesized but not founded in science (excluding Amanitas which doesn't produce true hallucinations in swim's experiences).
@Mÿ Pï Dë I know exactly what you mean about amanitas! I got no visuals but strong mental trip and body high from mesc. I did it several times a couple very high dose.
Was this when Coca-Cola had actual cocaine?
huh.. weird fact actually. This is definitely psychedelic 🌀
This was my favorite part of Dumbo! For a while as a kid I barely knew what the ending was like because I'd fast forward to this part and get bored before the movie because the rest of it wasn't nearly as exciting lol
Am I the only one that actually loved this as a child?
So did I
Nah, man. I loved this scene too!
I did too.
I loved it.
Gabriel Rangel nope!
Okay, Tim Burton... This is why you were chosen to do the remake. Let's see what you got! ;)
Bobsheaux oh hi!
I'm starting to have doubts about the remake cause it says here that it won't have Timothy Mouse or the crows :( www.thisisinsider.com/disney-live-action-remakes-2017-2
Doubt away, but keep an open mind. There were MANY changes to Pete's Dragon, and that ended up being pretty damn good.
Bobsheaux good point. BTW, I like your videos.
I've never seen the old Pete's Dragon. But I did see the 2016 version and it was pretty good
Parts of this scared me as a kid, now I'm more scared that the animators may have died from drug overdose...
It scared me too lol
This scene predates the existence of LSD (and the widespread knowledge of hallucinogens in general) by 14 years. Unless the guys at Disney had somehow gained first-hand experience with peyote or psilocybin (unlikely), it seems they're probably remembering "fever nightmares". Before the era of widespread vaccinations, antibiotics and Tylenol, there was no cure for a bad fever other than "sweating it out", which I'm sure anybody alive in 1944 had experienced many times as a child. This often caused dehydration and delirious bad dreams, halfway between a nightmare and a hallucination.
Weird how similar the brain operates when you're crossing wires randomly, either with fever or drugs. Those random bursts of color and dancing animals wouldn't be seen by the general population until the hippies discovered lysergic acid diethylamide and turned the angry pink elephants into happy (though oddly shaped) multicolored Grateful Dead bears.
This scared me until I was 22.
You're right! It scared me too 0_o It's really scary for a child's mind.
What part
Amazing to see those animations come to life even after more than 80 years, just an amazing art flex from Disney animators on this scene, you can actually appreciate the animations, the style, the skill the timing! just amazing, even for today standards !
Nope.
