Did You Know....? - Screen Legends

The first Tarzan of all, actor Elmo Lincoln, lived up to the role. When he was suddenly attacked by a lion in the 1918 movie Tarzan of the Apes, he snatched a knife from one of the crew and stabbed his feline co-star to death. Ironically, the lion was the only real animal in the film. All the apes were played by American footballers in hairy costumes.
