What's left behind the scenes
- The elephants in the film were not African, but Indian. Large tusks and ears were attached to the animals to make them look more warlike.
- In the famous nude bathing scene, it was not Maureen O'Sullivan (1911-1998), the actress who played Jane, who appeared on screen. Instead, Josephine McKim (1910-1992), a member of the US Olympic swimming teams in 1928 and 1932, appeared as a body double. In reality, she was not filmed nude, but in a flesh-colored swimsuit.
- Indian elephants with false tusks and ears stood in for the supposedly African elephants. The reason was that by the time filming began, the film company 'MGM' already owned several such animals. In addition, they were considered more trainable than African elephants.
- In this film, Johnny Weissmuller (1904-1984), the actor and athlete who played Tarzan, performed all his stunts himself, which included, among other things, riding a rhinoceros, an elephant, and a hippopotamus.
- During the filming of the crocodile attack scene, a mechanical model of the reptile was used with pouches attached to it containing nigrosin. This mixture of blue-black aniline dyes depicted the monster's blood.
- The film was restored in 1960.
- In the famous bathing scene, it was not Maureen O’Sullivan (1911-1998), the actress who played Jane, who appeared nude. Instead, Josephine McKim (1910-1992), a member of the US Olympic swimming teams in 1928 and 1932, was used as a body double. She wasn't actually nude, but wore a flesh-colored swimsuit.
- Indian elephants with prosthetic tusks and ears stood in for supposed African elephants. The reason was that by the start of filming, the “MGM” film company already owned several of these animals. Furthermore, they were considered easier to train than African elephants.
