Believe it or not, Labyrinth turns 30 this year, though there's still much to learn about Jim Henson's fantasy classic.

Did you know that the owl was the first attempt at a CG animal in a feature film?

How about that baby Toby grew up to be a puppeteer?

What about the fact that Jim Henson wanted Sting for the role of Jareth the Goblin King until his kids convinced him to go for the late, great David Bowie?

And speaking of Jareth ... can you spot the images of his face hidden throughout the film?
