CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Quintus Arrius (Jack Hawkins) pushes the rowing men to the brink of exhaustion.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
This 1959 version of Lew Wallace's best-selling novel, which had already seen screen versions in 1907 and 1926, went on to win 11 Academy Awards. Adapted by Karl Tunberg and a raft of uncredited writers including Gore Vidal and Maxwell Anderson, the film once more recounts the tale of Jewish prince Judah Ben-Hur (Charlton Heston), who lives in Judea with his family during the time that Jesus Christ was becoming known for his "radical" teachings. Ben-Hur's childhood friend Messala (Stephen Boyd) is now an ambitious Roman tribune; when Ben-Hur refuses to help Messala round up local dissidents on behalf of the emperor, Messala pounces on the first opportunity to exact revenge on his onetime friend. Tried on a trumped-up charge of attempting to kill the provincial governor (whose head was accidentally hit by a falling tile), Ben-Hur is condemned to the Roman galleys, while his mother (Martha Scott) and sister (Cathy O'Donnell) are imprisoned. But during a sea battle, Ben-Hur saves the life of commander Quintus Arrius (Jack Hawkins), who, in gratitude, adopts Ben-Hur as his son and gives him full control over his stable of racing horses. Ben-Hur never gives up trying to find his family or exact revenge on Messala. At crucial junctures in his life, he also crosses the path of Jesus, and each time he benefits from it. The highlight of the film's 212 minutes is its now-legendary chariot race, staged largely by stunt expert Yakima Canutt. Ben-Hur's Oscar haul included Best Picture, Best Director for the legendary William Wyler, Best Actor for Heston, and Best Supporting Actor for Welsh actor Hugh Griffith as an Arab sheik.

when your manager comes back from his "leadership training" and tries out his new skills
This is a classic "Yeah, my boss is a POS" moment.
Damn, that the was funny. I had one who had just seen Patton. Same old song.
Typically "leadership training" from con artist "specialists" with an impressive company name, prospectus, and sales pitch. And the Yuppiefied corporate world falls for it, just like in "Dilbert."
Thank God I'm done with it!
@@wayneantoniazzi2706 .......LOL - interesting perspective. But I must agree. There are some highly 'suspect' organisations and so-called 'experts' out there offering leadership skills training that leaves a lot to be desired. Mind you, it might interest you to know that leadership skills training is [by far] the single biggest skills training topic and a US$365 billion [annually] industry.
Indeed, 85% of students that enroll onto MBA programs do so purely to learn leadership skills. The irony of all this is that if you look at the standard of 'Leaders' we have today [in business and commerce, politics and government, sports, the entertainment industry and virtually every other area of life] we are saddled with some of the most incompetent, corrupt, uninspiring and inept 'Leaders' imaginable.
Clearly, something is going very wrong. Interestingly, a recent study among top skills recruiters found that “oral/verbal communication”
was number one - yet, traditional management skills came down at the bottom! So there is obviously a huge 'disconnection' here between what some training organisations would have you believe and what the 'business world' actually wants?
@@thesoultwins72 Thanks for your thoughts!
You know, years back a former Secretary Of The Army, Stanley Resor, made an interesting observation on leadership, ot the lack of it in todays world. If I remember correctly it went like this:
"The reason we have so many poor leaders is this. All too often those in leadership positions have seen those positions open up and then compete aggressively for them. So in the end we don't get good leaders, we get good competitors."
And he followed it up with:
"And when havoc strikes, and the competitors are found wanting, that's when the real leaders come out of the woodwork."
I don't know what the answer is, except in the business world possibly a return to the old ways of doing things where irregardless of your education you started at the bottom and worked your way up with those above you watching you and judging your performance. There was no "fast tracking" in the old days and no MBA "quick ticket" to the executive suites. The system wasn't perfect, but it worked.
It's the way the military does it and has always done it. Having been there I can tell you, it works, at least most of the time.
And in the case of the Consul, Quintus Arrius, you can bet he didn't arrive at the position of the emperor's "go-to" guy overnight either!
This is last time I sign up for a budget cruise.
Oh my gosh, insomnia at 3:00 in the morning and I find this comment. Had me in stitches. Thank you!
Roman equivalent of Jet2 travel.
Why? It has musical atmosphere, and sport excercise!
60 years ago and its still stands up as a masterpiece
It will be forever
It was, and is, garbage.
Yeah, the reboot did not do it justice.
I agree totally with you! Daniel from Rio de Janeiro.
@@mistermax3034 Your mind is garbage
what if he said... warp speed?!
well thi comment made me laugh and then think
What if he said... Ludicrous speed?!
KptKosmit91 Ludicrous speed is when the drummer breaks out the snare drum and plays “Wipe Out”
You don't rest until this ship turns Plad.
Today is a good day to die!
Can you imagine what the rest of the Roman fleet was thinking?
"What is Arrius doing?"
"Guys, where is Arrius going?"
"Guys, Arrius thinks he's Ayrton Senna again!"
Good One.
"Complevit tempus! QUINTUS AAAAAAAAAAARIUUUUUUUUSSSS!!" "O Iuppiter, illi vade in!"
One would think he would be at the steering station and observing his course instead of naked male slaves. Gaylord.
Honestly, this is plausible to me. It's like if you buy a little car. You want to know how much it can accelerate, and how fast it can go, before you try to pass a semi. He would NEED to know what speed they could maintain, and for how long, before going into battle.
He had his eye on Ben Hur the entire time. One of the few not nearly passed out from exhaustion.
"People that know you have what it takes to go further in life... will push you to your very end."
Good ole 41.
Or dead from heart attacks
It's not real Bert, it's only acting.
Listen to this while working out at the gym.
HA!
+dbsirius Next time you don't want to work out. Just remember that these guys were stuck down there doing this all the time. One hour workout compared to years rowing... Makes it seem like nothing.
yep, and under pain of the whip if they lagged behind
especially on the rower I hear it in my head
The editing in this scene is fantastic. What makes it even more amazing is this was long before the days of digital editing software.
ZukoHalliwell di non
A pair of scissors, in the hands of a professional, can do wonders. Audio tape was also miraculously well edited in the old days. Digital might be flawless, but manual clipping was excellent too.
When real cinematography existed.
digital s-cks
Imma Siervo lo
Ludicrous speed...GO!
'We can't stop. It's too dangerous!
'BUUULLSHIT!'
My god, they've gone to plaid!
Drum goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
"Engage" *with raised pointed finger*
“The beatings will continue until morale improves!”
I remember my mother taking me to the movies to see this film this movie I could watch it a thousand times and never get tired of it
+the bassman With a movie this long, do they do intermission? Is there one built into the movie? It's been so long I can't remember.
Yes
My Mom took me to see it.. She bought me the hardbound movie book at the concession stand too..
lucky bastard.
the bassman because it is one of those 9.987/10 perfect films.
This has to be one of my all time favorite scores put to any movie scene. It's just so perfect!
Miklos Rosza won the academy award for the music score for Ben Hur 1959.
@@talianikkic4873 as good a job as Miklos Rosza did for Ben-Hur, I thought his scores for King of Kings and El Cid were even better. But those movies weren't as successful as Ben-Hur so I don't think he got his just due for those scores.
@@robertshaw7132 Don't forget Quo Vadis.
@@yvonneplant9434 he had also done the score for a movie that I think was called The Last Embrace. it was pretty good also.
I have never been so turned on in my life
Arrius testing the "engine" so he knows what it can do when he needs it. Great scene.
Actually he was really testing Judah. He was considering buying Judah and training him as a gladiator and charioteer.
You quickly how this must of DESTROYED the oarsmen's backs. I sometimes hurt just watching this.
@@Dragonrose36 yeah that's true. In the previous scene he told Judah this.
Judah pass the test when he rescue Arrius later in the movie.
yes this in the engine room
reminds me of work
lol
You must have one of the worst bosses ever. On a different note, I wonder how many oarsmen died doing this, or were at least crippled. My back hurts just watching this scene.
Thunderbird 1 lol these dudes life expectancy had to have been 35 tops.
Jack Hawkins was a magnificent actor.
Agreed! Sadly I think lung cancer is what killed him.
Jack Hawkins! I was trying to remember who the actor was....Gen. Allenby from Lawrence of Arabia...looked totally different, but the same arrogant manner. Thoroughly British...opposite Heston and Peter O'Toole. Fine actor...always watchable.
This is a Masterpiece! This movie will never ever get old! No one else has ever done a better job at portraying Ben Hur ! Then Charlton Heston! ❤
Light speed is when the drummer breaks out the snare drum and plays “Wipe Out”
crossfit in ancient times was not a child's play
Orange theory.
No kidding. Legend has it that Judean subject named Jesus tried it once, and was basically dead for, like, a weekend.
One of my all time favorites! This, The Ten Commandments and The Greatest Story Ever Told were my childhood.
Imagine if Keith Moon was doing the drumming! The ship would have become airborne.
The ship would have no toilets.
Or Mick Tucker.....
..seriously, he was that great of a drummer
Meanwhile the rest of the fleet is watching the flagship pull ahead at ramming speed and all the captains are thinking "What the hell is Arrius doing over there?"
The stench down there would of been appalling. You could almost smell it the cinema, I can remember we all went out as a family when I was a boy to watch this film, it was a big event. An amazing film.
Arrius wasn't testing his ship. He was testing Judah.
Exactly
This movie seriously contends as the greatest achievement in art in the history of mankind. The eternal truths embodied and explicated with divine backdrops powered by writing, acting, direction and music of such exemplary quality. I give you 1959's Ben Hur, the greatest film ever made.
agreed
Couldn’t agree more!
I’d had the great honour, & privilege of meeting Mr Charlton Heston, & he was just the most ‘down to earth’ person I’d ever met. He & his wife, Lydia were good souls’, & lovely people. Biggest thrill of my life, ever!
Oh I completely agree. All of it's parts work together and every part is excellent on its own. I never get tired of this story.
Yeah, no. That's a totally ridiculous claim.
@@letolethe3344 lol
Ok, now, everybody..... row, row row, your boat gently down the stream, everybody!
...merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily life is but a dream, now, "Ramming speed"! and everybody,
row row row......
omg I just spit out my drink reading that. lol
I bust out laughing hard. Good grief that was funny.
Have mercy. I saw this back in 1960. (Don't figure out my age. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL).
🤣🤣🤣
Not one second of CGI, but a wide screen filled with feelings and atmosphere, sweat and tears!
Such a classical movie with such original sets never in the history of Cinema ! Even every bit of film is so magnificent ! Dialogues so powerful & timeless !!!???

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Personal trainer with a whip to keep you motivated included...
The roman officer standing at the back was really surprised by what was going on.
He also seemed nervous that the slaves would be overwhelmed by the effort.
He was well beyond ‘surprised’, imho and absolutely panicking near the end.
He seemed oddly sympathetic to the slaves, especially when they started collapsing and getting whipped.
Certainly. He knows the slaves are the "engine" that makes the ship go, and you never "red-line" an engine unless you really have to. Dead or crippled slaves can't row.
Needless to say Arrius hasn't told him what he's up to.
@@protamine4 I don't know if it was sympathy. If too many of them died or broke some oars or something he was liable to be held responsible for the state of the ship. The romans didn't look too kindly on failure.
Ben Hur is still the BEST movie of all time.👍🤗
This is the flag ship. If the flag ship is speeding the whole fleet needs to speed up.
Finally found something that keeps me motivated while on the rowing machine. First 19 minutes are just music, but that last 6 is on the barge with these guys. It makes you dig deep to kee up with these guys. For a while I started thinking “when is Arias gonna say “raise ors, quit, hit the breaks!” Or something. But when he does, man it feels good. Wish I could find this on a loop🤯
i love this movie.
Man... Years on a slave rowing ship. You'd be completely ripped.
No, you wouldn't due to malnutrition
Collin Thompson I suppose.
unless your slave owners were nice
nice as in "Battle speed once a month" lol
I wonder if the strongest ones weren't given decent food. One would want to keep those alive and efficient - plus, if the best ones are rewarded, it's one more incentive
I love the way Jack Hawkins mouths the words before saying them as an awful precursor to what he is going to demand next.
Battle speed, Lord Vader.
"I find your lack of strength and endurance disturbing..." Force choke grip.....
Ah Star wars fans I see
"BATTLE SPEED!" Bam, Bam, Bam, Bam...
It's going into Plaid!
I hope everyone who goes on cruises now fully understands the effort and manpower it takes to row those ships. Make sure you tip the rowers before you disembark.
Battle speed...attack speed...ramming speed...such a great scene made up of three sentences. Back then movies were worth watching. None of that computer animated crap we have today.
Next is ludicrous speed
lol@@kopetz071
03:02 that exchange of grins is priceless
The rowing will continue until morale improves...
First officer to galley slaves: Two announcements for you. First: today you will get a good warm food for lunch. -Yee, hurrah. -Second: after lunch captain wants to go waterskiing.
Random Slave: (a whimper) Oh no...
Warp 9 Mr. Scott!
+Bah Humbug lol
lol!!!!!
Before they invented call centres!
Jeez, for '59, this looks almost modern. Like, out of the 80s, 90s, hell, maybe even the 2000s!
If the audio was modernized, many would probably never realize this was from the late 50s.
The lightning in this scene is also beautiful. When they rest, for instance, you see that the room is lightened with just a handful of oil lamps I presume. I wonder how much light was there in really on such galleys.🤔🤔
Amazing movie
Bad news men. The officers want to water ski.
WATER SKI SPEED!
Bumumumumumumumumumumumumumumumum
Zach Zent 😅😅😅😅
That's where they originally created the beat for Darude's Sandstorm.
**JET SKI SPEED!!**
Dammit, the others are passing us!
LUDICROUS SPEED

Love it! he looks directly at him thinking and saying to him, "you can't faze me, i came face to face with Christ."
Ben Hur was ready for another 20 miles.
The first heavy metal drummer in history!!
Phil Rudd’s idol
The drummer had some of the best lines in the film… Ramming Speed!
Been yelling that out for years. Just hit me that has to be from a movie. Hence my watching this video.
@Richard Taylor- the "drummer" is called a hortator, which means "encourager", and played by Howard Lang, uncredited though. He acted in many movies and TV shows, often again uncredited.
@@inganorden1816 Oh brilliant. Great info!👍
@@richardtaylor6412 You're welcome! I enjoy this movie at least once a year, never gets old.🙂👍
Best motivation for the rowing machine
Every Year my dad and I would watch this movie, our first big TV we watched this movie, he loved it and I did too, he was a man who would not like to go out but I dragged him to the movie theater for the premiere of Gladiator, He was in awe of the spectacle, for this one this was one of our favorite scenes of the film. Every time I see the opportunity to watch this i watch it alone now. I miss my old man, I'm sorry for not enjoying you more as an adult dad!!
3:04 Ben-Hur giving the 'Are you satisfied?' look to the boss.
Brilliant acting all around. Not a word said but you know what everyone is thinking!!
Man, I love this scene. I came here just to watch it.
Charlton Heston Another Classic, excellent sound track !
Absolutely love this film. A true gem
"Water skiing speed, Portator..."
I didn't think the DI-Lithium crystals would take the strain Captain, I'll give ya all she's got Captain but I'm telling ya she's gonna blow.
''You may conquer the land, you may slaughter the people. That is not the end. We will rise again.'' Ben-Hur
2024,Who's still watching and listening to this?👀👂🎧 When you got God on your side! You're ready for all speeds!! This is when films were 🎥 Hallelujah, Amen ❤️💯
amen! glory be to God!
Ludicrous speed.....go!
epic scene!
Fantastic production...priceless
I know today you've got your Endgames, Matrix, and whatever else... but THIS (in my opinion) was the greatest movie ever made.
The other Roman guy standing and watching the proceedings, his facial expressions are comical.
That officer is seen thru-out much of the movie: In some ways, Ben-Hur is seen thru' his eyes.
Can you blame him? The consul’s fixation on testing Ben’s strength and fortitude exhausted several of the other rowers. Were they to be attacked, that officer and his men would be sitting ducks
@@benjaminosterloh3605 True, support actor adds drama to this scene. He played professionally well that part.
BEN HUR: es la pelicula mas vista y de una gran conmocion mundial en escenas, vestuario, actuaciones, guion (dialogos) tomas y personas extras y animales. Bendiciones aquellos familisares y a los que esten vivos aun. Dios los bendiga por su buena actuacion. Nunca el mundo olvidara esta pelicula. Exitos a pesar del tiempo las nuevas generaciones apreciaran LO BUENO DEL CINE. Karins4ever/la hija del Altisimo
Great clip from an old classic - never give up - never give in 👍
Ramming Speed!
I watched The Golden Voyage of Sinbad again this evening and noticed the similarity between this scene’s theme and the centaur attack scene. Love this movie!
Imagine how it must smell down there
Even worse than Hillary's crotch.
Or worse than Trump's mouth
DON'T ask.
Haha! That’s exactly what I was thinking.
Funk! Funk! And more FUNK!!!
That drum beat is the greatest transmission
All the times I've seen Animal House, when the guy says Ramming Speeeeed! Now I know the reference. An homage to this movie. This clip is also great for doing interval workouts on the rowing machine, keeping up with the crew.
D-Day: "Ramming speed!"
Dean Wormer: "I hate those guys!"
Next was double secret ramming speed
The most mistake was trying a remake! Nobody can! Masterpiece!
They remade it? Thankfully I didn't notice.
I used to refer this scene to my workmates whenever we were very busy and stressed at work. Ramming speed, drum, whips. Always got a chuckle.
OK now the Captain wants to go water skiing.
Slaves: 'Huff, puff, can't take much more of this.'
Comments section: 'That poor drummer must have sore arms.'
Captain, we canna take much more of this!
The dilithium crystals are starting to crack, Captain!
We’re gonna need a bigger boat
Movie 's clips of Benhur very rare Unique Collection ! Touches our mind ! Picturisation is superb ! Many thanks!
A Classic Scene from a Classic Movie.
Great film !
All those guys couldn't have chipped in for an outboard motor?
Shell and Exxon were outta Gas
Battle Speed, Ramming Speed, Ludicrous Speed. Plaid speed.
Great Movie, brilliant performance,
Can't believe such a masterpiece was made in less than one year.
I've tried to buy a rowing machine CONCEPT 2 and TH-cam induced me to here. It is most likely to help me lose my weight effectively... so much !!!
ludicrous speed!
Damn, you beat me to it!
The guy hammering the drum is more tired than the rowers. Too funny.
It would help a lot if someone remembered to pull up the anchor.
very intense scene!!!
Battle speed! . . . . . . . . . . Attack speed! . . . . . . . . . . RAAAMMING SPEEEDD!!! .. . . . . .. . . . . . . . .. .. . . . . . WARP SPEEEEEDDD!!!!....................................... LOOOOOL!!!
This is Monday morning going to work music - this scene was always fascinating and comical ramming speed! The drummer had to be exhausted too!
I need to buy a rowing machine so that I can try this! Lol
Whenever I'm on the rower at the gym... this is why I imagine I'm doing.
the comments here are making me die of laughter.
Not one frame of CGI. Amazing piece of cinematic art. It would be impossible to make such a movie today using the same production techniques - it would be cost prohibitive. Same with Lawrence of Arabia, The Ten Commandments, and Spartacus to name a few such epics.
Battle Speed, Attack Speed, Ramming Speed...Water Skiing Speed.
Never got to Ludicrous speed😊
Water skiing practise.
Gosto demaaaaaiisss deste.filme!!!!! É muito lindo!!!!!
😍😍😍no me canso de ver esta super pelicula....la mejor de todos los tiempos🤗🤗🤗🤗
This scene reminds me of a T-shirt that I saw that read “let the beatings continue until morale improves.”
