Shouldn't it have one, seeing it lives in the jungle?

[Karen W.]

well good thoughts, tarzan was also a small boy left alone by the death of his parents in the jungle, he was left with all the things his parents had left in the hut , old mirrors shaving stuff etc etc.. he learned to do all this lovely stuff via the cable link to the hut the apes raised him in!! LOL

[Seany (OP)]

Lol thanks Karen. I learn something new EVERYDAY! And that was one of the most interesting facts. []

Tarzan does what any good ' brought-up-by-apes-in-a-jungle ' bloke does and that is pop down the high street to the barbers .

Glad I could help.

Johnny Weissmuller, the original Tarzan actor, used to calm the lions by tickling their testes with his toes!

How on earth did anyone find out that that trick worked; and what were they trying to do at the time?
P.S.
Jane must be a bit disapointed.

I believe that Johnny Weissmuller did mention it in an interview he gave (I think it is referred to somewhere on the Internet, but cannot recall where I saw it - or maybe heard about it on the radio).

[Seany (OP)]

How big do you think the testes were? []

[Mirage]

How big do you think the testes were? []

I think it would all depend on how much tickling was involved  []

[that mad man]

It was an interview with Weissmuller on the radio that I listened to a short while ago.

Amazingly he also claimed that the crocodiles didn't bother him as he could out swim them!

I'm not sure how serious he was being but I don't think I would fancy trying either........

He did state that the Lions had been de clawed and had their teeth filed down so it wouldn't surprise me if that had also been castrated.

If you castrate a lion does it still grow a mane?
On a related note I understand that Cheeta the chimp turned 75 years old the other day.

[Karen W.]

Still alive?

[Seany (OP)]

What does castrated mean? I hope it isn't what I'm thinking.. []

[Bored chemist]

Karren,
Yes Cheeta's still alive and is the oldest known chimp. Now diabetic, Cheeta celebrated with diet cola and a low sugar cake.
Seany,
I think castrated probably does mean what you hope it doesn't; castration is the process of removing the testes.
