You'll be gobsmacked when you see the naughty references and cheeky innuendos tucked away in the background
MANY of us have grown up with Disney.
Their classic animated films are stalwarts of our childhood and are still loved by kids today.
But it turns out some of their "Universal-rated" flicks are harbouring some pretty "X-rated" secrets.
On close inspection, certain scenes in favourites like The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast contain some shocking phallic references, while a short film starring Donald Duck features an edition of Hitler's autobiography Mein Kampf.
Here we run through 12 of the most shocking secrets you never knew about your beloved Disney films.
The most startling rude reference in the film actually appears on the original cover of the VHS.
Even for the most eagle-eyed amongst you, it's tricky to spot, but once you've clocked it, it can't be unseen.

But apparently the person who created the cover didn't actually work for Disney and admitted the penis was a total accident.
The willy references don't stop there.

He told the that the nudey photo appeared in the first Rescuers and went on to explain that when there was a re-edition of the movie, a lot of the original executives who produced the video tape had left.

Although the cartoon won an Academy Award, it was not generally released as a result of its controversial subject matter.
