In the 2005 movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the squirrel scene in Willy Wonka’s Nut Room used real squirrels instead of just computer effects. Trainers worked for months to teach about 40 squirrels to crack nuts, sit on stools, and handle objects. While some CGI and robotics helped with a few parts, most of the scene shows the real squirrels doing their tricks on camera. | Historyinmemes

History Photographed on Instagram: "In the 2005 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the famous squirrel scene was filmed using real, trained squirrels rather than CGI. A team of animal trainers spent months teaching around 40 squirrels to crack nuts, sit on stools, and interact with objects for the sequence in Willy Wonka’s Nut Room. Some CGI and animatronics were used to supplement certain shots, but much of the scene features real squirrels performing live on set."
