High Diving Hare is a hilarious Bugs Bunny cartoon from Friz Freling, 31 December 2007
10/10
Author: tavm from Baton Rouge, La.

In this cartoon directed by Friz Freling, Bugs is the carnival barker announcing high diving daredevil Fearless Freep as the big attraction. Yosemite Same gets so excited he buys hundreds of tickets. Bugs gets a telegram saying Freep won't show because he's delayed by a storm. Sam ignores explanation and attempts to make Bugs do the dive. Several times. Now that you know the premise, I won't tell you the rest except to just watch. And the one scene where Sam says, "You notice I didn't say Richard." is a reference to a then-current popular song called, "Open the Door, Richard". Simply hilarious especially Bugs' line at the end.
