RIP to all these Munchkins, especially Jerry Maren, who just died this past week. He was the last surviving Munchkin.

The makeup used was terrible, the Tin man had a serious allergic reactions to his make up which contained aluminum powder. The scarecrow had scars from his makeup. The witch got poisoned from her makeup and couldn’t eat for a couple days. Judy Garland, was molested and was assaulted a few times while filming. She was taking drugs. She had to lose 12 pounds to play the role. The witch got burned in the scene where she in smoke disappears. The lion suit was made of real lion fur, also because of the makeup he wasn’t allowed to eat. The tin man couldn’t sit in his suit. Everyone almost got heat stroke, because the studio was too hot.

That's right... keep spreading those KZfaq rumours about Garland being assaulted. Unless you have factual evidence to the contrary, you should be ashamed of yourself.

Trev L atleast three of those stories are true as it has been confirmed by multiple people who worked on set that the witch was burned accidentally and also that the original actor who played the tin man had a severe allergic reaction and almost died and about Judy loosing a bunch of pounds but as for the stuff about the munchkins those are 100% false and were started by one of judys ex husbands.
