The Whalers
Directed by Dick Huemer, David Hand
Produced by Walt Disney Productions
A lighthearted, slapstick-driven animated short where classic Disney characters bumble through a whaling adventure with escalating physical comedy and cheerful chaos.
Mickey, Donald, and Goofy are crewing a whaling ship. Their mishaps include Donald fighting off some hungry birds, Mickey and a bucket of water that keeps doing a boomerang impression, and Goofy firing the cannon and getting stuck high in the air, and ultimately inside a whale. And when he lands the whale well, let's just say they're gonna need a bigger boat.
