Haha, my uncle sings this, he's really funny. When we we're so tired that we can't sleep we say "Paul...do the yawny man song". And then we're all out like lights :)
Was just watching my new DVD of "tom thumb" and said, "The Yawning Man song should SO be shared on TH-cam!" and luckily, I found it's already been done. Wonderful movie!!! The special effects are "vintage" but no less appealing.
I remember waatching this when I was 8 years old! It made me yawn ecven back then and it it still makes me yawn now! Has anyone got any idea where I buy this?
This is a pretty divided comment section. There seem to be two sides. Some see this scene as nice childhood memories, while others find the yawning man quite unsettling. Personally, I remember being scared of the scene. I do find it interesting though how one scene can be seen in such opposite views by not so different children.
The voice of the Yawning man is the great Stan Freeberg. I often wonder if I'm the only person who sees the unintentional irony in this film. Joan of Arcadia's dad can talk to horses, but Wilbur Post can't.
To anyone here who wants to buy a copy of this film on dvd,you can buy it on Ebay i bought a copy for £8.99,its available on regions 1,2,4 theres usually plenty of them. Good luck
How about this for a freaky coinkydink. I sent this link to my sister and she texted me to say she had just been telling her grandkids about the Yawning Man! Spooooooooooooky! Cheers. Angel
my son used to love watching Tom Thumb many moons ago and this one would always trigger off the yawns!!

As a kid, this was the most terrifying thing I'd ever seen - and I used to watch horror films aimed at adults, too.

Sadly, "The Yawning Man" was murdered by "The Sandman" some years ago.

I remember waatching this when I was 8 years old! It made me yawn ecven back then and it it still makes me yawn now! Has anyone got any idea where I buy this?
