  Welcome to 70 per 80, the 7080 .it section that
• 1:12
  deepens the topics discussed on the portal. I
• 1:15
  am with journalist Enzo Mauri, who introduces
• 1:18
  the current topic. Good morning, today I am talking
• 1:20
  to you about a well -known character from the
• 1:22
  jungle. When the actor Ron Healy decided to become
• 1:25
  Tarzan, moreover as a second choice, he would
• 1:28
  never have imagined that fate would fall on him.
• 1:37
  Reading his misadventures, we can't help but
• 1:40
  smile. In 1966, after the success of numerous
• 1:44
  films, NBC decided to produce for the small screen
• 1:48
  a series on Tarzan, the character born from the
• 1:50
  pen of the writer Edgar Rice Burroughs. Between
• 1:53
  1966 and 1968, two seasons were made for a total
• 1:59
  of 59 episodes. Penenda is dangerous more than
• 2:02
  you can imagine. Here, in the heart of the forbidden
• 2:07
  jungle, a boy was picked up and taken away by
• 2:10
  the great schools. The boy was called Tarzan,
• 2:14
  and he became a teenager and was brought into
• 2:16
  the civil world. But as soon as it was possible,
• 2:19
  Tarzan returned to his jungle, in that mysterious
• 2:22
  land that he knew so well, from the great cascades
• 2:26
  to the high mountains, from the land of phantom
• 2:29
  men to the immense forest without lynxes. Despite
• 2:32
  the typical setting of the Black Continent, the
• 2:35
  African locations were preferred by the Brazilian
• 2:38
  ones in the first series, Mexican for the second.
• 2:40
  In a first moment, the choice for the protagonist
• 2:43
  of Tarzan falls on the former American football
• 2:45
  player Mike Harry, who had already played the
• 2:48
  role in the 1966 film Tarzan in the Golden Valley
• 2:53
  and here began a whole series of misfortunes
• 2:55
  that costarred the entire series. The cheetah
• 2:58
  has finally met one who is faster than him. The
• 3:01
  lion has understood who is braver than him. During
• 3:08
  the filming of the pilot episode, Mike Henry
• 3:11
  was attacked by a chimpanzee, with a consequent
• 3:13
  fracture of the jaw that required 20 suture points.
• 3:16
  Mike Henry abandoned Tarzan's set among the polemics
• 3:19
  and decided to make the production a success.
• 3:21
  The latter decided to take on the role of Ron
• 3:24
  Healy, already taken into consideration, but
• 3:26
  discarded in favor of the former sportsman. Ron
• 3:28
  Healy was reluctant to become the new Tarzan,
• 3:31
  but in the end he was convinced. The decision
• 3:33
  would have cost him dearly. As soon as he arrived
• 3:36
  in Brazil, the production told him that having
• 3:38
  to wear a simple leather jacket in every episode,
• 3:41
  it was impossible to find someone who could replace
• 3:44
  him in the most difficult scenes. He discovered
• 3:46
  at his expense that the animals used in Tarzan
• 3:48
  were not trained at all, as he thought. In an
• 3:51
  interview he declared that we didn't even have
• 3:53
  a tiger, the production got a wild one, captured
• 3:57
  and brought to the set. Tarzan continues to respect
• 4:00
  his law and to defend justice. The tremendous
• 4:04
  roar of Tarzan is known by every living creature
• 4:07
  in the jungle. During the shooting, Ron Healy
• 4:17
  was injured 17 times, risking several times to
• 4:20
  be shot dead. A lion pierced him in the head
• 4:23
  looking for several points of suture. In addition,
• 4:26
  he had a broken nose and three broken ribs, the
• 4:27
  jaw, the left shoulder and the bone. Although
• 4:30
  he loved animals, he swore that he would never
• 4:32
  again accept such a role. Another feature of
• 4:35
  the series on Tarzan is the absence of the proverbial
• 4:37
  companion Jane. In her place, the little Jai,
• 4:40
  played by Manuel Padilla Jr., has already appeared
• 4:43
  in two films with The King of the Jungle for
• 4:44
  the great - The famous scream was instead the
• 4:47
  same used by the famous predecessors as Johnny
• 4:49
  Weiss Mueller. Despite the vicissitudes and course
• 4:52
  of Tarzan in the television version, it was a
• 4:54
  great success both in the United States and in
• 4:57
  Great Britain. The series arrived in Italy in
• 4:59
  the 80s on the Fininvest channels and were made
• 5:02
  some feature films for cinema. Grazie ad Enzo
