THE FUNHOUSE MUMMY THAT WAS A REAL CORPSE - The INSANE True Story of Outlaw Elmer McCurdy

[@EileenHaslof]

Good evening My Love ...😊 Hope you had a Blessed Sunday Scott! 💖 Thank you for your Video, as usual you've not only outdone yourself, but you were cracking me up with some of those lines of Your's!!!😁 Elmer was quite a character! He was definitely treated harshly at the end of his life and it certainly wasn't deserved! You gave him back some dignity. Thanks Scott! Your Pal Eileen 😊

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

I gave him back just a bit Lolol thank you for watching!

[@BS-kh8ek]

It’s a wonderful Monday morning here in southwestern Ontario. Before I get up and winterized my motorhome, I thought I’d put on Scott on tape. And before I knew it. I now am 3 Scott videos in and I already watched one of them prior!! NOW I have no ambition to do any yard work. Thanks Scott!!

[@SHERRY0010]

Oh my !!! I just about fell off my chair, cause this gave me a jolt . Many years ago I worked with a woman who had the last name of McCurdy . That was her married name . She was originally from California , her husband was from Maine . I remember one time her hubby told me , he had a criminal relative who robbed banks in Oklahoma . Scott, this just has to be the guy ! I’m shocked . What are the chances . I don’t know if this lady I worked with is still alive . That was over 40 years ago now . She was in her fifties . I’m floored 😮

I saw that mummy at the Long Beach "New Pike" pier back in the late '70s. He was in a ride similar to "Mr. Toad" at Disneyland. The little man was covered with florescent paint at the end of the ride. A few weeks later, they were filming I think "The Six Million Dollar Man" there and it fell down and found to be a mummy. It was all over the local news. Shortly thereafter, they demolished the pier. 😅

You crack me up....love your content Scott! Stay safe!❤

[@sheilableeks2030]

Where do you come up with some of these stories?😂😂 that’s OK gives me plenty to watch. I’m getting ready to have surgery so I’m gonna be down so I have plenty of videos to watch. Keep them coming.

[@SHERRY0010]

Your style of storytelling makes a morbid story interesting and fun(?).......peace and love from Akron.

[@RaymondMcElroy-l9u]

Elmer McCurdy was also the inspiration for Skeletor from "He-man and the Masters of the Universe" cartoon. Learned that from "The Toys That Made Us" from Netflix

[@donc7354]

I remember this wacky story on the news in the mid 70's. Love your goofy sense of humor as well. The movie "Narcotic" was one of many exploitatation movies of the era like "Cocaine Fiends", "Reefer Madness" etc.

[@roknrolbilly]

[@MNWILD43]

What you'd expect from Scott, always great stuff!

[@pippadot679]

Scott, I've only seen this once in my life. I think it was the Discovery Channel. I was younger and floored. To this day any fun house, spooky houses, haunted, I am very weary about all the dummies.

[@Bodybuilder-inTraining-kj7em]

Good video 😀

[@kathymccalley3492]

Thanks Scott, you Little rascal ❣️

[@CCcastro336]

That is one crazy story. I never heard this before. Rest in peace to Elmer 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@stuckinmopro8533]

I can only assume that many a young man was considering a career in nitro glycerin and then they watched this video. Definitely a cautionary tale to the youth of today! Thanks Scott!

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

I do what I can to keep the youth safe from nitroglycerin.

[@joblakesley2159]

Scott, I could watch you all day. I’d love for you and Paul from Unusual Things to do a couple of videos together x

[@MichaelArledge-i5f]

Love the video 😮😮😮😢😢😢

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

I was born and raised in Orange County, CA. My family and I would go to the Pike on the weekends for something to do. A few years before they tore down the Pike it became a very , very rough part of Long Beach. Not really a good place to be when the sun went down. And the daytime wasn't much better. They have filmed countless tv shows and movies at the Pike.

[@dtna]

I remember seeing an old episode of Mannix filmed there. They also used Pacific Ocean Park. But I don't remember very much about POP.

[@RaymondMcElroy-l9u]

I remember the Pike. Well the tram was still around when I was a kid.

[@thehapagirl92]

Born and raised and still live in OC (Anaheim). I like going to the Pike in LB. I’m probably much younger than you (32) but the Pike is still around. It’s got new restaurants and a ferris wheel. So yeah the Pike is still around but revamped

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

@@thehapagirl92 I'm 66. So the Pike that you are talking about. Is Nothing at all like the one that I grew up with. When they tore down the OG Pike the land sat empty for several years.

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

@@dtna Pacific Ocean Park is also known as the Santa Monica Pier. It used to go farther out into Santa Monica Bay than it does now. It had it's own boat marina at the very end were you could drive on the pier and they had a crane that would lift your boat off the trailer and set it into the ocean. The winter storms and a fire in May of 1970 have helped to make it shorter and shorter. When I was a Union Pile Driver/Welder. I worked on fixing the pier two different times. The first time while I was working there. They were filming a episode of the tv show Simon & Simon. Somewhere I've got a crew member's cap that they gave us.

[@Luke-y7l]

Hey Scott how you doing today I enjoyed the video of Elmer shame what they did after he died always a pleasure to watch you seem a fun guy 😊 take care mate

[@brandonzech649]

Remember seeing this on unsolved mysteries as a kid and went to a lot of Halloween parks wondering, how easy it would be to pass it off🤷‍♂️🤔😯🤣🤣

Hey Scott

Hi Scott sorry I miss your live streams

I remember hearing this story was from a fun house here in SoCal, specifically in Long Beach

[@melanienance4920]

Hey Scott, thanks for the late Halloween story.

[@moviebuff83]

Wow cool to see you come to my town to visit Guthrie. Funny thing, I never heard much about his life other than he was a terrible outlaw. Thanks for teaching me something I didn't know :)

He really got used post mortem. He may be an outlaw, but he deserves to rest in peace. ❤

There's also a similar story in Paducah Ky about Speedy. Check it out, Scott. Love your story's

You are soo funny today! Blew your head off at the end with nitroglycerin!! oh great Scott!

My Uncle, Col. Richard Boivin, worked on the avionics of the M2F2 Lifting Body as seen on the opening sequence of the 6 Million Dollar Man.

[@MrJoggingDogg]

This was a very strange But true story I remember seeing this in1990s on HBO Autopsy episode it was so creepy that someone would do something like this very weird HBO didn't go into detail with the story as much Thanks for covering this story Scott I think you are the only one who has that I seen anyway!! Big fan of your channel 👍

[@ElijahRetro1982]

Damn, I knew this story sounded familiar. They showcased this story on an episode of Autopsy(HBO TV Series) and on Forensic Files too I believe, crazy that his mummified corpse was used as a prop in a Fun House among other things before that. I think they used real corpses for Poltergeist(1982) as well, saw that episode of E! True Hollywood Story: The Curse of Poltergeist where they mentioned something about that they used actual corpses. Thank you for this instant classic of a video Mr. On Tape
