Jungle Deep - Episode 21 I Was a Hollywood Tarzan Part 2

Jungle Deep - Episode 21 I Was a Hollywood Tarzan Part 2

Author: Pet Life Radio July 15, 2013 Duration: 33:51
This is Part 2 of our conversation with character actor and star of the 1959 Hollywood movie, Tarzan, the Ape Man, Denny Miller! In part 1 we got to hear about Denny's early experiences in Hollywood and playing the part of Tarzan. We heard that the Asian Elephants used in the movie had to wear rubber ears to look like African Elephants, that riding elephants entailed using ladders to mount them and since a saddle was out of the question, Tarzan has to worry about a bad chaffing problem as he wore only a loin cloth while sitting on the elephants rough and bristly back. And apparently Tarzans the world over are vulnerable to occasional sudden nasty bites from their co-stars and friends, the chimpanzees.

Jungle Deep-The Tropical Lifestyle Podcast is your audio guide to that world, brought to you by Pet Life Radio.

The conversations here are about more than just observation-they're about cultivating a profound, personal connection with nature's most vibrant corners. If you've ever felt the pull of verdant leaves, the call of unusual creatures, or the beat of a steel drum, this podcast provides a deep, resonant echo.
