Carl was a stuntman.
Physical appearance
Carl is a Caucasian male, with a bald head. He wore a black-furred ape costume on the The Ape Man of Forbidden Mountain set, hiding the rest of his true body.
Personality
He was so resentful for not being cast as the lead of John Maxwell's film and as a result, he tried to bring harm to the other people on set.
History
Early life
He had been hired to be the stuntman for the Ape Man in Mr. Maxwell's The Ape Man of Forbidden Mountain; having already been denied the lead.
Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
Season one
Carl was furious about this, and pretended to be the real Ape Man from legend, endangering Candy Mint and trying to sabotage the set. He then hid inside his trunk claiming that the real Ape Man put him there while he was getting ready (which the gang found suspicious that the supposedly real Ape Man would be smart enough to do that). He was undone by Shaggy Rogers, who with a Polaroid camera, managed to take a picture showing Carl in a mirror without his mask.[1]
Appearances
