Lloyd and his sons are very famous. But obviously you, like many others, paid no attention to his twin brother Ish Bridges, who served as his aquatic stand-in for lo those many years. It is not generally known that Lloyd suffered from a severe case of aquaphobia, complicated by rhytiphobia,or the fear of getting wrinkled from prolonged exposure to water.
Thus Ish, who while an identical twin, was unable to act on the stage due to a bad lishp, was employed as Lloyd's double for any scene requiring immersion.
Ish Bridges was also renowned for his love of practical jokes, as evidenced by the monikers of his two charming children, Brook and Londy.
And if you believe this, I have a Bridge I can sell you.. |
