You know that famous Disney footage of the bear cub tumbling down the side of the mountain?

Posted by Max Oct 21 '10, 10:12

A guest on NPR's Kojo show is saying it was all staged - a fake mountain in a studio. I find that very hard to believe.

I don't think I do. Should I? Is the footage less obscure than Leibniz? -- nm - mara Oct 21, 10:16 3
- The idea of "Disney nature docs" already sounds suspect, because I know such a thing would have not killing or humping -- nm - Lon_cHaneY Oct 21, 10:18 1

A lot of the Disney nature docs were faked. The reason we think lemmings run off cliffs for pop. control is because a director herded them off one. -- nm - Reagen Oct 21, 10:15 2
- That's the other famous example they started discussing. But that bear was tumbling for hundreds of yards. -- nm - Max Oct 21, 10:18
