Did you know this about DISNEY’S TARZAN

Did you know this about DISNEY’S TARZAN? Animator Glen Keane was inspired by modern day extreme sports, thanks to his son, and decided to model some of Tarzan’s tree surfing after moves made famous by pro skateboarder, Tony Hawk. Gnarly grind, Tarzan m’man!

Jane and Tarzan cruising through trees is so satisfying to watch

Disney’s Extreme Skate Adventure starts to make more sense, now!

[JaePlay]

Tarzan: *takes entire life to surf trees*
Jane: *surfs trees after a few days*

Can we all say that the Tarzan and Jane sliding down the branches was made SOOOO clean

[goldenstudiofilms]

Honestly the animation in these scenes are so trippy and I love it

[joshuagarner]

That's what I loved about Tarzan, because those additions transformed the typical "vine swinger" into an extreme sport athlete with agility and speed. Almost like Tarzan invented skateboarding, snowboarding, and surfing in his time.

I did actually know this lol back then there was this show where these kids/teens would go behind the scenes on movies

[godzillalover]

Tarzan is one of the best Disney films ever made in my opinion. Ah childhood memories.

[Mimidragontamer]

I knew that long before anyone else did it was literally pointed out to all of us in one of the behind the scenes extras in the DVDs of Tarzan, but still the attention to detail that Disney goes through is insane

[Idontwantomakeupahandle]

Yeah I remember them talking about it on my vhs of Mulan

[dragoncaptain]

I did know this. I learned about this from an opening scene before mulan started on vhs.

[vincentknws]

Back before this came out Disney channel made a comment about this.

[jamiedunham]

I think if you had this movie they showed you these sneak peaks so I already knew this.

[Dragoman]

Actually, I remember seeing a behind the scenes trailer of Tarzan on a Disney VHS movie. I can't remember which one, but it was showing animators watching skateboarders for a reference for Tarzan. So, I guess I already knew. lol

[ComeliaO]

If watched Movie Surfers back in the day, we already knew this.

[daringrose]

Yes! Glen Keane literally said this in the promos for Tarzen back in 1999.

[minaminasstudios]

How does Tarzan surf on trees without getting splinters stuck in his feet?

[abigailsheffieldas]

i like that i actually did know this from the special features on the DVD

[UAF]

I think it would be hilarious if they were used for animations from Tarzan and cut him out and then edit it so he was skating

[beauwalker]

That was fun in the N64/PS1 game too. Underrated game.
