Ape Man

Mars IS in Leo, let’s celebrate with some eye candy and showtunes !

During Tarzan the Ape Man a scene involving Jane attempting to get away from Tarzan, Miles O’Keefee found himself face to face with a full grown lion, who took on the part of the gallant gentleman saving the damsel in distress.

Lionhearted protector- escaping his holding pen, dived into the fray, apparently more intent on protecting Bo Derek than attacking Miles O’Keeffe (Miles wasn’t injured by the 500 pound cat).

~~~~~~~~
 The handler was on the scene almost immediately, stopping the incident. Although neither human nor lion were injured, rumor had it that Miles O’Keeffe thereafter made a habit of checking the security of the holding pen whenever other scenes of “violence” toward Bo Derek were done, citing a deep respect for Bo Derek’s formidable self-appointed bodyguard.

A very small selection of Bo Derek pictured clothed in this movie. lol.- here is one.  This one is a promo shot.  Below is Johnny Weissmuller for my Mom, she loves him.  His Tarzan yell was dubbed into the movie featured above – Miles chose not to overdub.

This pic is for me !  I had it on my wall for years, then lost it in all my travels.
 YaY the internets/webs/photos – We are reunited haha !

  1. Several have been before and after but none can compare to Johnny for his yell or protrayal of Tarzan. My hero…………..

    • Johnny had a Gemini stellium, Sun conjunct Mars, Venus, and Pluto in Gemini (not conjunct). Sun conjunct Mars – that’s lots of energy and Johnny won 3 gold medals, one bronze in 1924 for freestyle swimming, 2 more gold in 1928. He also set 67 world records. He never lost a race and retired with an unbeaten amateur record.
      Johnny’s Mercury (communication) was in Taurus the sign that rules the throat – explains the Tarzan yell !
