Wizard of Oz suicide subliminal?
by Michael Robin Cooke on Sep.28, 2009, under Kitschchaos
Rumor has it that during the filming of the Original Wizard of Oz, a munchkin hung himself on film and wasn’t noticed as the film was shot.
The argued clip is below, look for a dark figure in the background of the forest as Dorothy and her friends are walking away.
Now, myself, on viewing the clip it looks like it could be anything from a stray prop or an employee getting the frame by accident. The grim story involving a suicide, it doesn’t follow from the evidence as I see it in the youtube video.
But there is something to notice here. The suicide story likely came first. In the Bible is suggests ‘Seek and you shall find’, and this does seem to apply to the human mind. Where there’s a belief, evidence will be found. Thereby UFO images, Bigfoot foot tracks, photos and tracks of the Chupacabra – even Creationists have evidence for their belief.
Is the mysterious dark form in the background of the movie having a subliminal impact?
Well, I think not, because it suggests nothing.
In sales and marketing learning to make the subliminal work for you is the thing. And what makes something subliminal is it not being a conscious impact, not that the delivery is obscured. The matter of showing split second images or playing a command backwards being ‘subliminal’… that stuff has been demonstrated to have no effect.
So if subliminal doesn’t work, why I am saying subliminal is key?
Try this with a group of people, produce a jar of water, and tell everyone it is a powerful concentrated ammonia – open the jar and react as you would to a revoltingly powerful stench. Then ask if anyone else can smell it.
Every time, not only someone but usually everyone will smell the awful and powerful stench, of the pure odor free water.
That’s subliminal suggestion. Using words to talk to a person’s subconscious.
Now if you look at the inverse of a nasty smell you associate with water, you will discover that it looks like sales and advertising. You are excited about something – so others are more likely to be expecting to be excited too. The sexy bikini girl posing next to a new car is talking to a straight man’s hormones: ” Buy me and get a girl”.
In sales, famous coaching is to always ask the prospect questions they will answer “yes” to – this increased the odds of their saying “yes” when it’s time to close the deal.
- Do you want to sell more?
- Do you want to learn to talk to a person’s subconscious?
- Do you want to be confident about powerfully expressing yourself?
Will you buy from my catalog of books for the detailed information that will allow selling more, speaking powerfully and subliminally?

Is there anything about The Wizard of Oz which isn’t creepy on some level? As you mention “seek and ye shall find.” If one comes up with some odd posit, they’re bound to find evidence of it somewhere in this film.

I always heard it was just a loose ostrich or something in the background. Creepy nonetheless. Also: colors are HUGE in psychological marketing – worth researching.
