What happens

Hare Lift is a 1952 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes short directed by Friz Freleng. The short was released on December 20, 1952, and stars Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam. The title is a play on the term "air lift," as expressed in the plotline. Some scenes where Yosemite Sam has trouble staying inside the plane as well as the banana peel gag sending him outside the door, sticking to it in fear, were somewhat reused from the 1943 Merrie Melodies cartoon Falling Hare. Scenes from this cartoon were reused in the 1963 Merrie Melodies cartoon Devil's Feud Cake and "Act 1" of the 1981 package film The Looney Looney Looney Bugs Bunny Movie. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
