Charlie and the Chocolate Factory had 40 squirrels trained to crack nuts

It was overall very difficult because the squirrels kept trying to eat them after they ate them. Additionally, they didn’t tap the nuts, so they had to put string on the nuts and tap them manually. They recorded a few of them, then filled the rest of the room with stuffed ones and cgi-ed them on

Who knew squirrels were in to ball busting?
