Vine swinging, skinny dipping, not safe for work.

One wonders how they [got away with this.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPrWCCPADNs)

Is that Maureen O’Sullivan swimming, or a stand in? I vaguely remember that it is not she.

Apparently, this was filmed just as the they starting to crack down - [Tarzan and His Mate (1934) - Trivia - IMDb](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0025862/trivia). Multiple versions were filmed, depending on which state the filmed would be played in and the local rules regarding nudity.

The scene must have lasted ten seconds in Mississippi.
