Peter Mayhew AKA Chewbacca, well the man who played Chewbacca in the Star Wars films didn't forget to take some sweet pictures while on set.
When George Lucas was casting for the role of Chewbacca he needed a tall actor, who could fit the role of the huge Chewbacca. He originally wanted to go with bodybuilder David Prowse who stood at 6 feet 6 inches, but he ended up as Darth Vader. So he needed someone else to fill the role of Chewbacca which led to finding Mayhew.
