Five cartoon characters seen in real life

It is interesting to realise how many people in the real world look just like fictional cartoon characters.

Here are five cartoon characters seen in real life.

5. Dumbo

A young circus elephant is born with comically large ears and given the cruel nickname Dumbo.

After Dumbo’s ears cause an accident that injures many of the other elephants, he is made to dress like a clown and perform dangerous stunts.

Everything changes when Dumbo discovers that his enormous ears actually allow him to fly, and he astounds everyone at the circus with his new talent.

It looks like this elephant has the same large ears as Dumbo.
