Does anybody have the long uncut audio of Mel Blanc’s fabulous falling scream at about 6:12 in “wild and wooly hare” just after he says “ya double crossin’ rabbit, ya cut down your chances, I’m only gonna count two and THEN blast ya…..one……two……” then the train continues on a trestle and Sam lets out a famous (but faded out too soon) scream as he plunges into the water below the trestle. That 1959 Mel Blanc scream voice was so perfectly done after the flat, calm count of …..one…..two…….
That voice over effect exists somewhere on tape, probably recorded on a Studer tape machine as the world’s best cartoon voice did his magic. Wish I could find that original. There is a good uncluttered YS yell in “Piker’s Peak” but not with the same convincing SURPRISE of “wild and wooly hair”. Also, thank you for maintaining this site. Some of us still draw great laughs from these ancient cartoons.

One of my favorite YS quotes:

“I saw ya sneak in there, ya **YELLOW-LIVERED SCHWEINHUNT!!” (From “Dumb Patrol,” of course!!)

I need to find out who said, “I’m a rootin’ toot tootin’ two gun shootin’ wild west buccaneer.” Pretty sure it was sam but can’t find it.

Hey Jack,
I’d like to know what you find out … I’m still drawing a blank on this character.

Thanks,
Dino

Wow, I can’t believe how hard this character is to find. The character I am thinking of is short just like Yosemite Sam, has brown/blond hair, wears chaps and a cowboy hat, he has a thick moustache which hides any expression he may have, and he never says anything at all. Seemingly his only reason for existing seems to be to deliver things to Yosemite.

Iill keep looking and when/if I find him, I’ll post here again to share the info.

Thanks

Jack

Hey Jack,

As far as I know, Yosemite Sam was always a loner. Be it a pirate, outlaw, cowboy … I could go on

Actually, Yosemite does say “Shut up, shuttin’ up” in The Fair Haired Hare.
