This is a lighter note than most but added it for a reason. One of the exotic birds trainers was climbing a ladder and got caught on camera trying to recapture it. This was the origin of the story that one of the munchkins had committed suicide on the set.

This reminds me of the Three Men And A Baby 'ghost boy' story (it was a life sized poster of Ted Danson!) and playing the Beatles album backwards...oh the time we all wasted on dumb stuff!

Oh yeah I heard about that! Funny story, I'll take it because either way things didn't turn out as the filmmakers planned. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/hanging-munchkin/
