* HiddenDepths: While he was not a trained fencer, he was so quick and agile, and such a skilled physical mimic, that he proved an excellent improv swordfighter in ''Film/TheCourtJester'', so much that he wore out Creator/BasilRathbone, who was still one of Hollywood's greatest fencers at the age of 63, and even the fencing master brought in to double for the man supposedly asked him to take it easy on him! He was an accomplished pilot who flew everything from the Piper Cub to the Boeing 747.
