Some people believed it was a test animation from ''[[Rayman 3]]'', however findings in recent years point out that this animation was made by Damien Pougheon during the preproduction of ''[[Rayman 4 (cancelled prototype)|Rayman 4]]'', before it turned into ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]''.<ref>Rayman Pirate-Community discussion forums, ''Rayman himself'', https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1431538#p1431538</ref> In Damien Pougheon's blog, there is a post from April 28, 2006, which shows an image of [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] singing, unfortunately the original video is no longer available for download.<ref>DaMs' Animation, ''Disco Party !!!'', https://dams-animation.blogspot.com/2006/04/disco-party.html</ref>

Offensive Globox

=== Offensive Globox ===

~~Rumour~~ Globox was excluded from the animated series out of fear a dumb french frog would offend France. The ~~same year~~, Brock was replaced with Tracey out of similar ~~converns~~.

Teensies are jews

The Teensies are the direct descendants of God Polokus tasked with guarding the magic of the world. The jewish people has similar origin/function in the Kassalaw. Plus the big nose stereotyping.

=== Creepiest Images in 'Rayman Origins Disco Theme 15 Minutes Extended' ===

The only thing I could find was a video named ''Rayman Origins - Disco/Dance (EXTENDED, 15 mins)'', uploaded in April 27th, 2012 by WonkyTonkBotty.<ref>YouTube, ''Rayman Origins - Disco/Dance (EXTENDED, 15 mins)'', https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7o749zpyMRA</ref> The video contains various images which include: official art, fan art, fan comics, screenshots of Rayman Origins, edited images and memes.

=== Vine porn ===

In a video from the YouTube channel DoubleFineProd, at 45:08 [[Michel Ancel]] tells a story about ''[[Rayman 2]]'', where a guy goes to him and claims to have found "porn" in the game, referring to the movements of the roots and their symmetry in certain places of the level [[Beneath the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava]].<ref>YouTube, ''Devs Play S2E09 · "Rayman 2: The Great Escape" with Michel Ancel, Tim Schafer, and Lee Petty'', https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6AgSHT8Ve0</ref>

=== Jimmy ===

~~The earliest origin for~~ Rayman ~~says he~~'s a kid ~~named~~ Jimmy ~~who invented a virtual world, when~~ the ~~world~~ is ~~threatened~~ by a ~~virus~~, ~~he goes into the world as~~ Rayman to ~~protect it~~.

In a page from an [https://raymanpc.com/wiki/en/File:Jimmy.jpg Atari Jaguar Preview Booklet (US)] from 1994, the following description can be found:

{{quote|text=Join Jimmy, a 10-year-old who escapes reality by entering "Hereitscool," a fantasy kingdom he has created within the realms of his computer. When an evil power takes over Hereitscool, Jimmy becomes Rayman, a super hero who must save his friends before it's too late!}}

This led to various theories, for example:

*'''Crippled Jimmy:''' plot for a scrapped Rayman game involved a kid whose arms and legs become crippled and he conects with Rayman for having no arms or legs. Rayman is in a boot camp for video game heroes and Dark Rayman acts as a malicious virus.

*'''Jimmy is Polokus:'''

=== Jimi Hendrix ===

Possible reference to Jimi Hendrix in the early plot for the SNES version of Rayman.

https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1435449#p1435449

{{quote|text=RAYMAN is an electronic character created by professor HENDRIX for his nephew JIM. He travels through virtual worlds and has exceptional powers. He can command objects at a distance with his fist, pilot flying engines, change size, hang and climb platforms, and so on. He also has special powers with surprising effects. Despite these qualities, Rayman's electronic nature does not permit him to dive into water.}}

The early design of [[Carmen]] the Whale, as shown in [https://raymanpc.com/wiki/en/File:R2_Portraitdefamille.jpg this artwork], had no eyes and was described as: "Une Baleine mauve". On top of that, there is an image that was found in the files of the Dreamcast version by RobinRayman, that shows the whale with no eyes opening the mouth very wide and showing its teeth.<ref>Rayman Pirate-Community discussion forums, ''Rayman 2'', https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1439621#p1439621</ref>
