Out-takes from the closing credits of the Peter Sellers' "Being There"

Hi - in recent years many films (including even some animated films) have featured some “bloopers” during the closing credits. I am pretty sure that “Being There” was the first film to do that, although wasn’t it just a long scene or two, rather than a bunch of goofs? And I am pretty sure that in real life Peter Sellers was upset when he lost the Oscar to Dustin Hoffman for “Kramer vs. Kramer”, and later blamed his loss on those closing credit outtakes, which he felt detracted from his “serious” performance. (Some of that was dramatized in the 2004 HBO docudrama “The Life and Death of Peter Sellers”.)
