The dead kid in Three Men and a Baby was the first to come to mind. It was actually just a cardboard cutout of Ted Danson. Nothing scary about that.

To this day Lynch still won't reveal how he created the mutant baby in Eraserhead or even really talk much about it in general

It's been so long but I think I remember dust or sand being kicked up in a shot on the Lion King that said something perverted. Also, I think the movie poster or a shot in the film shows a castle with a tower that is shaped like male genitalia.

The "Hanging Munchkin" in the Wizard of Oz is really a large bird.

Great idea for a thread! The "man with his junk out" in Teen Wolf is actually a blonde haired woman with an unzipped fly and badly adjusted belt, as seen in the full screen VHS.
The "hanging munchkin" in Wizard of Oz, as already pointed out, is just a large bird spreading its wings. Every version I own of that movie (VHS and DVD) clearly depicts this. But there's one thing I don't understand about that version of the scene that actually looks like a hanging munchkin, as shown in the video in the original post.
It's been revealed that this is actually a remastered version, altered from the original. This is shown to be true in the YouTube video posted above that debunked the myth. But is that just an edited YouTube video or is there ACTUALLY a home video release that has that same footage? And if so, does that mean that a distributor put that in as a joke or what? I mean they clearly edited the crane out, although you can still see part of its wings, and put the munchkin in. So, how did this happen exactly? Anyone who can shed some light on this would be much appreciated.
EDIT: Pretty sure the altered footage featuring the hanging munchkin came from a fake video that was made in 2011 to further this old rumor. They photoshopped the hanging body overtop the large bird, and you can still see traces of it in the edited version. Pretty sure this version of the shot was never seen before that. If anyone has any other info, let me know.

A scene in Charlie Chaplin's 1928 film The Circus includes a brief appearance by a woman who is holding a rectangular device up to the side of her face in the manner of someone using a cell phone. Before a reasonably sensible explanation could be put forward by historians who identified the object as a type of hearing aid apparatus commonly used back then, hysterical types claimed that the woman was a time traveler who went back in time, cell phone in hand, to appear as an extra in the film. The fact that this theory made the news and had to be "debunked" shows how willingly some people will accept the bizarre over common sense.

I'd like to believe she is a time traveler. Common sense tells me she isn't, but the wonder in me wants to believe that she is a time traveler.

Nude woman in "Rescuers Down Under" (that's one's true) The Rescuers 1977.
Sounds like it could have been a publicity gimmick. I remember people saying Disney, after the 80s takeover, had pornography holdings.
