History Funny / Dumbo

** One large elephant is constantly trampling a smaller elephant (making its trunk-horn honk each time). After one trample leaves the smaller elephant behind the larger one, it decides it's had enough and kicks its tormentor in the rear. The elephant splits into three somewhat smaller elephants who make trumpet noises at the other elephant before it grows to a massive size and uses a pair of cymbals to smash the three into a load of tiny elephants. Also a MomentOfAwesome.

-->'''Catty:''' To hear him talk, you'd think he was gonna do it.\\

''[he and Jim look up, then down to see that they really are up a tree. Timothy gasps, then squeals as he hides in Dumbo's trunk]''

* During the climax of the disastrous Elephant Pyramid, Matriarch the Elephant shouts this to the fleeing Dumbo, who they are about to fall onto:

-->'''Crow:''' Naw, dead people don't snore... or do they?

* Mrs. Jumbo dunking the ringmaster in the tub of water after which he gets hit in the face with his shortfront trying to wring himself dry.

-->'''Catty:''' Hearing him talk, you'd think he was gonna do it.\\

-->'''Matriarch:''' That windbag! Why doesn't he get to the point?!
* The initial performance by the clowns when Dumbo is incorporated into their act is quite hilarious, [[BlackComedy once you get by the fact they're practically abusing him]].

-->'''Timothy:''' (rubs his eyes and moans) Ohhhhhhhh! All those pink elephants.\\
'''Jim:''' Pink elephants? Mm-mmmm!\\
(The Crows laugh)\\
'''Timothy:''' What's so funny? What're you boids doin' down here, anyway?\\
'''Jim:''' What're we doing ''down'' here? Well hear him talk!\\
(The Crows laugh harder)\\
'''Timothy:''' (trying to go back to sleep) Ah, fly up a tree where you belong.\\
'''Jim:''' (puffs a cloud of smoke around Timothy) Now look here, Brother Rat...\\
'''Timothy:''' (suddenly standing up, then staring Jim straight in the face) Brother Rat?! Now listen! I ain't your brother, and I ain't no rat, see?\\

(he and Jim look up, then down to see that they really are up a tree)\\
'''Timothy:''' (gasps, then squeals as he hides in Dumbo's trunk)

** For example, at one point an elephant head pops up. Then another, upside down. The two heads look at each other and shrink away from each other at the same time.

** Especially the scene where Timothy spooks the gossiping elephants using antics such as [[FelonyMisdemeanor jiggling his face, twitching his nose, whistling, and doing a napoleon pose.]] This is also a {{Moment of Awesome}}, for putting the snobby elephants in their place
*** Funnier still when you consider there is some {{Truth in Television}} about this, Mythbusters showed elephants are slightly wary of mice and go out of their way to avoid them.

* The gorilla acting all fierce... until he breaks one of the bars on his cage. Then he sheepishly puts the bar back in place.
