Jane Porter (Disney)
Jane Porter is an eccentric, kind and intelligent young woman. She's the first of the group to encounter Tarzan and they fall in love. Ken Duncan served as the supervising animator for Jane[. Many of Minnie Driver's mannerisms and characteristics were incorporated into Jane's animation. The [scene where Jane describes meeting Tarzan for the first time to her father and Clayton was improvised by Minnie Driver, resulting in Ken Duncan animating one of the longest animated scenes on record. The scene took 7 weeks to animate and 73 feet of film.
Jane Porter (Disney) is a different kind of woman from Edgar Rice Burroughs' character of the same name in the books, because she's a brunette British lady in the end of the Victorian era.

Elmo Lincoln
Elmo Lincoln (born Otto Elmo Linkenhelt) (February 6, 1889 – June 27, 1952) was an American film actor. He was possibly the No. 1 reason for being the originator (and real life creator) of the Tarzan yell.
Elmo Lincoln is best known in his silent movie role as the first Tarzan in 1918's Tarzan of the Apes as an adult (Gordon Griffith played him as a child in the same movie). He portrayed the character twice more—in The Romance of Tarzan (also 1918) and in the 1921 serial The Adventures of Tarzan.

Johnny Weissmuller
Johnny Weissmuller (2 June 1904 – 20 January 1984) was an Austro-Hungarian-born American competition swimmer and actor, best known for playing Tarzan in films of the 1930s and 1940s and for having one of the best competitive swimming records of the 20th century.
Johnny Weissmuller's real name was Pieter Johann Weissmuller. He popularised the Tarzan yell and made it memorable. He was also one of the prototype 'celebutantes' of the 1930s-60s, because he initially had no experience in acting whatsoever.

George Of The Jungle (2007)
The scrawny, teenaged version of George Of The Jungle from the naïve first season of the Canadian TV Show remake. He actually has incredible strength.

Kinnikuman
A good old clumsy manga superhero, albeit a royal one of course! He is more often known as Kinnikuman to his native audience, but his real name is Kinniku Suguru.
Kinnikuman is naïve yet durable, because he does many awesome things when he fights against the villains!
