“Ace Ventura” Jim Carrey Rhinoceros mechanical birth of the buttocks for $ale
Published
An iconic moment of 90s cinema comes to auction… it’s the mechanical rhino that gave birth to Ace Ventura in a Jim Carrey following.
Yes, the rhino calf from “Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls” is up for grabs at Propstore’s upcoming auction…and the movie prop is expected to fetch between $4,000 and $8,000.
It’s the same rhino from the movie scenes where Ace is inside spying on bad guys… before escaping up the rhino’s butt in a comical exit.
The rhino measures over 10 feet long from tip to tail…and he features hydraulic hinges, a foam tail, a padded interior chair, and a removable latex back…like the one Ace was born from.
Plus, the rhino has the same fan prop from the movie…IYKYK.
The mechanical safari animal is made of fiberglass and the legs are hard-coated polystyrene…so it seems easier to transport than a real rhino.
“Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls” was a box office success, grossing more than $212 million… but it was also a part of pop culture, with the rhino scene widely considered one of the funniest cinematic moments of the 1990s.
THE start of auction March 27… very good then.
