Skinny Dipping Scene from Tarzan

In 1934, Johnny Weissmuller and Maureen O'Sullivan starred in "Tarzan and His Mate". A film that featured a then controversial nude scene. From imdb.com:

"The infamous nude swimming scene was originally filmed in three different versions: with Jane wearing her traditional costume, with Jane topless and with Jane fully nude. US states were empowered at that time to enact individual censorship laws, and three different versions of the scene were filmed in order to allow individual states to select the version of the scene which best conformed to its laws. All three versions were eventually removed from the film due to protests from conservative religious groups, particularly the powerful Catholic Legion of Decency. The nude version of the scene was discovered in the vaults of Turner Entertainment during the late 1990s following its purchase of the MGM film library, and was restored to most subsequent versions of the film on the direct orders of Turner Entertainment chairman Ted Turner. In the restored version of the scene, Tarzan is depicted wearing his traditional loincloth while Jane appears fully nude, her costume having been torn off when Tarzan playfully tosses her from a tree to the water below. The scene as it exists today is approximately four minutes in duration."

Skinny-dip record attempt planned

From Citizen-Times.com

CLEVELAND, GA. – A nudist park in north Georgia is participating in a national skinny-dip record attempt in July.

Serendipity Park, in Cleveland, is one site hosting the American Association for Nude Recreation event, "The AARN Largest Skinny-dip Across North America." Guinness World Records has agreed to create a new category for the largest number of people simultaneously skinny-dipping.

Skinny-dipping is swimming in the nude.

According to Guinness guidelines, participants must be completely nude during the skinny-dip in order to be counted.

Swimmers may wear their suits when entering the water, but they must remove them and hold their suits overhead at the signal from the official that the event has begun. After the event, they can put their suits back on before leaving the water.

The record-setting event is scheduled for 3 p.m. July 11.

Naked hikers told: cover up!

The following is from DW-World.de

People from the tiny Swiss canton of Appenzell Innerrhoden are in a state of high indignation over an influx of hikers. Why? Well Appenzell is indeed a beautiful and popular region for mountain hiking – but, locals say, the newcomers are just not the right kind of people…and they’re certainly not wearing the right kind of clothes…. in fact, they’re not wearing any clothes at all.

Nude water-gun tag getting high school seniors in trouble

Nude water-gun tag getting high school seniors in trouble
Dublin Coffman senior arrested; authorities not amused

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

Educators have threatened suspension. Police have warned of criminal charges.

And yet high-school seniors continue to run naked through their neighbors' yards spraying one another with water guns.

Senior Tag -- the annual underground game of tag with a twist -- has returned this spring and already claimed a victim.

Dublin police arrested a 17-year-old Dublin Coffman student Tuesday afternoon when he was spotted running naked between houses on Monterey Drive.

In Senior Tag, teenagers stalk and chase one another around town, aiming to hit opponents with water from squirt guns. The last man standing wins. The game typically lasts for weeks.

"As long as they are not breaking the law, we don't have a problem with it," Dublin Lt. Heinz von Eckartsberg said.

But in many of the Senior Tag games, students who are naked can't be tagged out.

The Coffman student was charged with disorderly conduct. But, with no prior arrests, he'll likely serve only community-service time through the city's diversion program, said von Eckartsberg.

Other students who were playing the game in the area weren't taken in, von Eckartsberg said, because "they weren't naked."

The nature of the game makes it easy for fun to cross into illegal activity: trespassing, public nudity and reckless driving.

Dublin police have received eight complaints from residents this week related to Senior Tag. Five were related to students shooting water guns out of moving cars. Three were to report naked teenagers.

But, other than the Coffman student, none of the reported incidents resulted in arrests because the students were gone by the time police arrived, von Eckartsberg said.

Some local businesses have tried to clamp down on the game.

A gym in Pickerington has posted a "No Senior Tag" sign on its front door after high-school employees were ambushed by tag players as they left work, said Metro Fitness manager Amy Pallay.

Schools have made an effort, too. Dublin high schools sent an e-mail to parents yesterday, warning them that students could face legal consequences.

Even talking about the game can get a student in trouble at Pickerington North High School, said senior John Zustra, who played the game this year.

So students have taken the game to the Web.

A search for Senior Tag on Facebook yielded about 30 groups yesterday -- most from central Ohio schools -- where students are organizing and getting updates on games. Upper Arlington High School's Senior Tag group has 218 members. Worthington Christian's has 48. Whitehall-Yearling's has 15.

Videos promoting Senior Tag games in Gahanna are on YouTube.

"As long as the school isn't involved in any way -- kids aren't talking about it at school, no documents are being passed out at school -- then you are fine," Zustra said. "They know it's going to happen. They just can't have anything to do with it."
