In 2009, an email began to spread around blogs and studio folks from one Dewet Du Toit, a “HIGHLY SELF MOTIVATED 22-YEAR OLD BODYBUILDER / ACTOR” that claimed he would be perfect for Stephen Sommers’ new parkour-filled Tarzan franchise, acting experience be damned. Behold the stunning 13-minute short he recently made to show off his actual jungle skills Watch as he fondles elephants, bravely drinks river water, stumbles bewildered through a gentle rapid, always showcasing his lily-white thighs with courage and grace. The finale, a hand-to-paw struggle against a jungle beast, may jump the shark, but Du Toit would probably wrestle a shark too, if that could help get him an actual screen-test.There’s a shorter trailer too:
