Zinger (unreleased), Hollywood Edition: An actor in the movie "The Wizard of Oz"…
Q: An actor in the movie "The Wizard of Oz" committed suicide in the background of the scene where Dorothy discovers the Tin Man.
A: Fiction. While this would be a memorable way to go, there is no truth to the popular legend; in the scene in question, a member of the film crew inadvertently appeared in the background of the shot, but they quickly exited the set and lived happily ever after.
