Wizard Of Oz fact for the day

January 14, 2007 in Nutbar, Interesting, but otherwise unclassifiable by markk

The lion costume in Wizard Of Oz was made from real lions.

I don’t know about you, but I get an image in my head of someone approaching a lion with a tranquiliser dart and a razor.

Bonus link: two-headed calf.

Second bonus link: Rich Skrenta can’t draw. Do you think that will stop him? Think again.

Third bonus link: Lord Of The Rings fans rejoice. A model of the Battle Of Helms Deep has been created, using lollies, cardboard and icing. 500 Gummi Bears were used as Uruk-Hai orcs. Is this cool or just scary?

I spend that much time on the net that it becomes inevitable. Oh, that and I am naturally drawn to this sort of thing.

Richard is right - he can’t draw.
