Woody Allen fought a Kangaroo!
0No really. He boxed a kangaroo on international television...
...way back in 1966 the 31 year old rising comedic star was on the verge of breaking onto the big screen and under the guidance of his then manager, Jack Rollins, he was taking any and all gigs that got him in front of an audience including boxing a Kangaroo on British television...
I came across this clip while trying to find some footage for a gag about Hasbulla's trip to Australia and I was like "What is happening?", so per ushe I went and found out!
In this vid I dive into some details about his career, the show and kangaroos...I hope you enjoy it!
If you want to watch the whole clip, uninterrupted and without my commentary you can find it here:
