| Trivia | The scene where the boy and the penguin are drifting through the ocean in a small boat and come across a large number of floating rubber ducks is a reference to a real event. In January 1992 a shipping container containing 29,000 rubber bath toys including yellow ducks fell from the cargo ship 'Ever Laurel' in a storm. The container subsequently burst open releasing the toys into the ocean. This event proved to be an unexpected windfall for science as oceanographers were able to track ocean currents in a way never before possible. See more » |
