The warthog Pumbaa holds the unusual distinction of being the first-ever Disney character to fart on screen in The Lion King.
'We would record in the mornings sometimes, and we'd be a little sleepy. And Ernie, to entertain me during the recording, would make flatulent noises,' Lane shared. 'While he was doing his dialogue, he would make fart sounds to make me laugh. And they eventually incorporated that into the character and the song.'
The two were worn out by the time Monday rolled around, but they still had to do a morning recording session. The stage and screen stars also revealed that Timon and Pumbaa weren't even originally parts of the The Lion King, which was titled King Of The Jungle when they were auditioning for it. The two actors were given an unusual amount of influence over the characters. Sabella's fart noises in the recording booth ended up making the character the first to pass wind in a Disney movie
Voice actors almost always record their lines separately, even when their characters are speaking to each other, and then the dialogue is lined up later, but Lane and Sabella's chemistry was so impressive that the two did every recording session together, marking the first joint voice recording sessions in Disney history.
'In the old days of vaudeville, there was a lot of dialect comedy, but now we're not allowed to do that. But in animation, you can get away with it,' he said.
