Christopher Clumsy is a genial but clumsy character who debuted in the Sesame Street comic strip in 1971. Situations frequently dealt with Clumsy's attempts to avoid falling into a hole. At other times, he attempted to demonstrate directional concepts or teach about shapes.

Along with Jasper and Julius, Christopher Clumsy appeared on Sesame Street itself in animated cartoon segments, beginning in Season 4.
