Where can I watch video of a supposed hanging of a munchkin in The Wizard of Oz?
Many believe in the scene where Dorothy and the others are skipping down the road in the woods, if you look closely in the left-hand side of the background, you can see a Munchkin who hanged himself. If you watch the movie on a newer tv where the color is better, you will notice that there isn’t someone hanging themselves. It is merely a large bird that lifts his head, puts his head down again and then brings it back up. Then the bird speads its wings giving the illusion of somone swinging. If you pay close attention the whole time they are in the forest scene with the Tin Man look in the background. You will see these birds throughout the scene.

This is the scene that was rumored about so much in the past few years. The rumor is that a munchkin hung himself during the making of the Wizard of Oz and they didn’t notice it as the scene was shot. Look in the woods for a person wearing black moving strangely around while Dorothy, the scare crow and tin man are walking away. It is a little freaky. Disney, by the way denies any one hung themselves during filming. Sources: http://www.techbanyan.
