[quote="cleargreenwater"][quote="KentuckyWildcat"]I have always wondered that about Zazu. My best guess is that he was in such a panic in that moment that he didn't even notice that Scar hit him. Once he woke up, he could have just assumed that he got in too much of a hurry and flew into the side of the cliff.[/quote]
That never bothered me because Zazu was facing away from Scar when he smacked him. It seemed very obvious to me, but I guess you have to really be watching the movie to notice it.[/quote]
It never bothered me that much, either. Although I never thought he would have just written off him being knocked out as him flying into the side of the cliff, I always thought he may have simply had amnesia upon waking up, at least forgetting that Scar swatted him into the cliff.
