the original yell was a mix of several sounds, animal and other. BUT John Weismuller taught himself to do the yell almost exactly as it sounded in the film, and wasnt shy about letting loose wherever he was, and doing the yell.
When you suffer roadrage.. Drive up next to the vehicle that annoys you. Deadpan! you can't have any expression whatsoever..and then do this yell.. Then drive off one finished :D
A lady in Florida that runs an animal sactuary claims that see was the owner of the original chimpanzee,Cheetah,from the Weismuller Tarzan films.She said that he recently passed away,they had his funeral,and set up a memorial for him.Have you ever seen the chimp make faces in the films?Looks EXACTLY like Muh-shell,the First Nappy.The First Nappy didn't even attend the funeral of her VERY CLOSE relative.No,she was too busy in Hawaii with Da Prez spending us TAXPAYERS money Shame,shame Muh-shell.
This is what i did when i saw a bigfoot up in the hills 5 miles NNE of yapham mill. It just ran off carrying a board game i recognised as 'screw ball scramble'.
He lived a few streets away from me as a kid in Ft. Lauderdale. He & his wife (Jane LOL) were always very nice to the kids in the neighborhood. He told me he hated cheeta......said the chimp would bite him
I just read where the record high dive is 175', then I remembered that Weismuller dove off the Brooklyn Bridge at 200' ! Maybe that's where this yell came from! Ha!
@HeyHeyHarmonicaLuke I found out when I was screwing around with a sound program, and I reversed it. It sounded the same, and for a bit I thought the program was broken.
is it weard or what because we listened this in our history class and our teacher just laugh and laugh and do nothing but listen this (sorry for my bad english writing :D:D:D: )
is it weard or what because we listened this in our history class and our teacher just laugh and laugh and do nothing but listen this (sorry for my bad english writing :D:D:D: )
This is the sound da prez will make after the 2012 election when they tell him to pack up his shit,move out of the WHITE House, and take his nappy muslim ass back to Kenya where he was born.I guarantee you Tarzan has been lonely without his chimp,Muhshell.
@mistercoors The sad thing is that I expected Daril to look like that. That's why he knows how much black and white porn costs. Crazy ass goofy white pedo freaks.
@mistercoors I already told you a million times that I am not him but you still don't believe me, so what's the point. He keeps sending videos to me and one day he sent me that video. I asked if it was him and he said yes. If I looked like that I would never show anyone, especially after saying the things he says on here.
@mistercoors Do you honestly think I would tell you about a video of myself and then make fun of my looks? And notice that he hasn't commented on here. That's because he doesn't know about it. By the way, I thought all "WHITE" people were good. Darisha is white. Can you say that he's a good person? White does not equal right. There are many in the white community that's just like him. Trashy losers that prey on children. I see them getting arrested all the time.
@mistercoors He sent the video to me in a private message. I wasn't going to say anything about it until he pissed me off, and I just wanted you to see him so you could make fun of him. I think the only way I can convince you is for you to actually see me typing under this username,and that won't happen, so I don't care whether youre convinced or not.
@mistercoors It will take more than a hurricane to stop the brown people from taking over. For every life taken by Katrina a hoodrat had 10 more children by 8 different daddies. I went to New Orleans a month ago. Trust me the Chocolate City is back. And Bush is the devil.
@mistercoors I hope that Obama is re-elected just to piss you off. I hope that he redistributes all the white man's wealth because the white man got that wealth from keeping the black man down. If it were not for slavery America would not have been such a rich and powerful nation. And notice I said would have been past tense because it aint shit now. What goes around comes around. The brown people are taking over. hahaha
@TheDutchCommentator Thanx, Johnny was my gramps cousin from eastern Europe, Romania, I think. I still have a framed pic that he signed, of him and Cheetah, who is supposedly still alive? Or is that an urban myth?
I remember myself when I was running from the school back to home to catch a new episode of the series, every saturday in the afternoon. Back to those days, in communism era, we were learning 6 days a week...
Anyway, I will remember him all my life.
You know something, Johann Peter Weißmüller was born in Timisoara, Romania, but then, Transylvania was in Austro-Hungarian empire.

Lex Barker made several Tarzan movies. In one or two of these, they used Weismuller's yell, but in the rest they used Barker's own yell, totally different from Weismuller's. Barker's yell went:
@BlazingStyle In the books he discovered a picture book in his parent's bungalow along with a hunting knife. He saw that most of the "hairless white apes" didn't have facial hair and so he started shaving with the hunting knife.
The Tarzan yell is indeed the sound of Johnny's voice. Mostly, anyway. The yodelling triplets are a clarinet and it sounds like the pitch was raised artificially in the middle. And the last half of the yell is the first half played backwards. So yes, its Johnny Weissmuller but its Johnny Weissmuller with some help. He did the yell for the RKO series but he was also able to impersonate the MGM yell quite well.
There may be pops in these recordings from decades ago, and there may have been splices to assemble the yell -- maybe -- but it is not reversed. The last half is not the front half reversed.
Weissmuller had said that he had developed the Tarzan yell from yodelling he had experienced in the Dutch and German areas of Pennsylvania. Of course, this yell had to be multi-tracked to get such an effect.
@HerrEllsworth So bullshit! I saw the entire producers's interview and they said they made the yell with a mix of animals screams, including a cheetah ,and many more !!
@muriator I'm merely quoting Weissmuller from a 1969 interview. I heard the interview about the animal noises being used but Johnny persisted that his yodeling was the basis for the yell. Of course, this could either the MGM Tarzan yell or the RKO yell.
@HerrEllsworth Well I didn't say Weismuller didn't participate with this yell, but you can obviously notice this is not only his voice! Ofc it's a miw of several sounds, and ofc there's also a sampler of his voice, but not by his own.
i have always my whole life loved the tarzan yell. its sound so sweet. its cocky, manly, and just beast mode. i love it the same way i love peter pans crow and godzillas roar.
Different stories exist as to how the sound effect was created. According to Bill Moyers, it was created by combining the recordings of three men: one baritone, one tenor, and one hog caller from Arkansas. Another widely published notion concerns the use of an Austrian yodel played backwards at abnormally fast speed.
I had the good fortune to attend a lecture sponsored by the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences and the CA Film Institute yesterday, where Academy Award winning sound designer Ben Burtt analysed the famous yell. It will be an MGM secret forever how they did it, but most likely it wasn't all Johnny Weismuller yelling but rather a combination of someone's voice and a clarinet, cleverly edited together (and reversed for the second half). Still beautiful and classic. Weismuller lives on.

Different stories exist as to how the sound effect was created. According to Bill Moyers, it was created by combining the recordings of three men: one baritone, one tenor, and one hog caller from Arkansas. Another widely published notion concerns the use of an Austrian yodel played backwards at abnormally fast speed.

I had the good fortune to attend a lecture sponsored by the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences and the CA Film Institute yesterday, where Academy Award winning sound designer Ben Burtt analysed the famous yell. It will be an MGM secret forever how they did it, but most likely it wasn't all Johnny Weismuller yelling but rather a combination of someone's voice and a clarinet, cleverly edited together (and reversed for the second half). Still beautiful and classic. Weismuller lives on.
