10 Disney Movie Mistakes You Can't Unsee

4. Rajah Tears The Prince's Pants - Aladdin

Tangled Mistake
Disney

In the beginning of Aladdin, the Sultan of Agrabah is trying to find a suitor for his daughter, Princess Jasmine. Aladdin sees a brash and haughty suitor called Prince Achmed enter the palace to try and win the princess over.

When we see Achmed next, he is storming out of the palace in a rage. As the Sultan attempts to pacify him, the camera shows the back of the disgruntled prince, revealing the butt of his trousers have been torn off by Jasmine's tiger, Rajah.

When the Sultan scolds her daughter in the next scene, Rajah can be seen munching on Achmed's torn underwear. We can see they are pink with red hearts, which matches the undergarments Achmed was wearing in the previous shot.

But why does Rajah have a clump of Achmed's boxer shorts in his mouth? If he ripped off Achmed's trousers, surely it would make more sense if the tiger was chewing on them. If Rajah tore a chunk off Achmed's boxers, surely the prince would have been more... (ahem)... exposed when he strode out of the palace in a huff.
