Mel Blanc, the voice of Bugs Bunny, was in a serious car accident that put him in a coma. After many unsuccessful attempts to get him to talk, the doctor asked, "Bugs, can you hear me?" Mel responded in Bugs voice: "Whats up Doc?" They used this technique to lead him out of his coma. Mel Blanc, known as "The Man of a Thousand Voices," tells a story about persistence. He became a well known voice actor, comedian, and radio personality who provided the voices for iconic cartoon characters like Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig during the Golden Age of American animation. Born in San Francisco on May 30, 1908, he began his career in radio before transitioning to voice acting in animation, ultimately voicing over 400 characters in more than 3,000 animated cartoons. Blanc passed away on July 10, 1989, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of animation and voice acting.
