According to Wikipedia, did you know that this furry little red monster was created because there was an extra puppet lying around the cast on Sesame Street? The cast would pick him up sometimes and try to create a personality, but nothing seemed to materialize.
It was not till talented pupeteer, Kevin Clash gave it a go that it became the Elmo we all love today. Found this on YouTube today, not an original Sesame Street production but made me split my sides. Enjoy!
