- True story of the 1924 Olympics. Eric Liddell disqualified himself from the 100 meters because he wouldn't run on the sabbath. A teammate gave up his spot in the 400 meters so that he would have a chance at a medal on another day.

I think the most inspiring, clean, heroic, and entertaining film I have ever seen. This film will ALWAYS be a classic.
Len Hummel well-said
Honoror God you honor yourself to help everyone

You will always be remembered as legends.
Sport was more than just $. My favorite film, ever.
"He that Honors God , God honors him "
"I believe God made for a purpose, He also made me fast and when I run... I feel his pleasure" ...great lines! great movie! unique score! unforgettable classic!
This film was perfectly made...the time period captured perfectly. May we have more like it...
there is something completely magical in this moment...the running, the expression, the music, the french sports commentator voice... so great cinema!
i want to dedicate this melody to everyone that is fighting against something hard...thanks for uploading these beautiful scenes.
any relation to Tom Vigorito ???
The story of Eric Liddel still touches the hearts of men everywhere.
And rightfully so.
truly one of the best movies ever made....they did such a great job of capturing the emotion and depth of the story.
The man who felt god's pleasure when he ran..:-)
Far and away one of my favorite movies ever.
I cried after Liddell won this race even though he beat the American. As anyone who's ever competed like me, the effort put forth is always the victory in the heart of the competitor. The music goes so beautifully with this scene.
"So, where does the power come from to see the race to its end? From within." This inspiring quote got me through a mid-life crisis in 1983.
A wonderful movie and we honour Eric Liddell and Harold Abrahams as we approach the 2012 London games,
I appreciate the testamony that Eric Liddel presented even back in the 1900's Olympics! He would share his Christian Faith with the world, and look where it led! The Gold Medal!
It was really nice of God to help Liddle and not the other racers who also believed in him :)
@@ItsSpecialHands agree (but unironically).
Yes, look where it led. To death in China.
Something about the visual and the crowd roar at 2:05 is awe inspiring - you realize that in spite of everything, the great man is going to win!
Even the Japanese guards respected EL. A true hero for far more than running
"I believe God made me for a purpose and He made me fast!" This passage is so moving, especially the last part when he puts his head back (2.37) and runs as the real Eric Liddell ran. I think Ian Charleson did a great job there. But I don't think he portrayed the real Liddell's warmth and humanity, as attested in his biography, in everyday life.
Thanks for posting!
so inspiring
amazing moment that shows the true meaning of sports and as well as life.
This movie hit me deep
I love the look on Abrahams face in this scene. He has the look of being awestruck and discouraged at the same time.
INSPIRED TO TO BE THE MAN ERIC IS
Funny you should say that. Cos this sequence , from when he gets the letter from Schulz through Eric's theme, Jerusalem and the main theme, are the most unfailably moving for me in any film, ever, but it still always pulls me out of the moment seeing them reuse the same bloody shot from when he's watching Eric run in Scotland at the beginning.
And despite that, Abrahams still went down to congratulate Liddell. If that ain't true sportsmanship I don't know what is.
I always saw this scene as Abrahams not comprehending what Liddell felt as he ran
Eric Liddell gave up his life to others. "Man is he who forgets his own interests for the sake of others.His own comfort he forfeits for the well-being of all. Nay rather his own life must he be willing to forfeit for the life of mankind." -‘Abdu’l-Bahá
and The Results: E Liddle, Scotland 847- T Watt, USA 1777.... :)
Brilliant ! One of my Favourites.
Thanks for Posting...!
Thank god for this movie! :)
I never realized that he carried Schultz's note throughout the race until now.
I always loved this movie, earlier in the movie when he falls down and gets up and wins..just awesome. When I realized that I was excellent long distance runner..it was great moment for me to win races with the fast time for a mile. I know he was a sprinter and I am a distance runner..still it was awesome.
I like how through the race he doesnt have the piece of paper in his right hand,and at the finish line it magically appears.
I got his book as a Sunday school gift in the 90s lol
I'm an athiest and I loveeee this movie. That speech at the end while he's running is so good. I BELIEVE THAT GOD MADE ME FOR A PURPOSE, BUT HE ALSO MADE ME FAST, AND WHEN I RUN, I FEEL HIS PLEASURE
Liddel knew he wasnt going to compete for the 100m well in advance and prepared for 400m instead, a lot of fiction in this movie!
初めまして。 16年後の今 返信致します。解りますが、 あくまで 映画ですから 仕方が有りません。
The number "451" gives new punch to the term "Chariots of Fire". 451 Deg F is the burning point for paper.
I´m happy I did run 47.6 like Eric Lidell
Forget about Jackson Scholtz I was inspired by what was written on the note. Praise GOD!
Mr. Liddell gave his life for the Gospel of Jesus Christ on Chinese soil
Un film che resterà x sempre nel cinema mondiale, x come è stato girato e impostato
Un film d'une profondeur rare sur ce que le sport nous enseigne des valeurs humaines universelles, notamment l'humilité et le respect; l'humilité face à la puissance divine : "quand je cours, je ressens Son plaisir"; le respect vis à vis des autres : "j'honore ceux qui m'honorent et ceux qui me méprisent sont déconsidérés" Samuel (1, 2;30)
Could you upload the scene where he speaks in church on the day he declined to run the heat? Hast thou not seen? has thou not heard? thanks!
In real life, Liddell knew that the 100m heat would take place on a Sunday well in advance.
And he also had time to practise for the 400m race. The character who gave up his place in that was a composite.. And his sister wasn't there. In spite ofthis it's one of my top ten favorite movies ever. Liddell did give up his life for others, he did love to run, and that's all good.
Plus the story of both Abrahams and Liddell after Paris 1924 was also a compelling story. Abrahams was reporting for the bbc from Berlin 1936, two rows away from Hitler and Liddell's time in China was pretty eventful to say the least.
La gloria es el deporte y sus grandes héroes deportistas , increíblemente espectacular.
Desde Colombia gracias.
Liddell es una leyenda. Uno de mis deportistas favoritas de todos los tiempos
i believe he had 6 months, and he was a 400m runner mainly who had only recently excelled in the 100m, the story of him falling over in a 400m race and still winning is true
It was not just that Liddell did not want to run on Sunday himself.He wanted to make a protest about ANYBODY taking part on a Sunday!
I have a book my father in law gave me on the Paris Olympiad of 1924 and there are the pictures of these very same people staring out from time to me.
Scholz, Liddle, Abrahams and others all in black and white in their prime with the odd looking outfits of the era.
I can't believe this movie was done over 30 years ago. I saw it the first day it was out because I love British movies. Dodi Al fayed put up the money for this movie and won an Oscar. Ian Charleston and Brad Davis died from Aids not long after this film was realeased. I dont know where Ben Cross is
Ýès Eric!! Ýou gave it all and God honored it.
He didn't throw the paper away. He held it in his right hand.. but you're right, it doesn't show the paper in the middle of the race.. then it reappears at the end xD
this isnt an insult , just to say a team-mate did not give up a spot on the team (this is fiction) and the run around the Trinity college was not done by Abrahams
I noticed that too... I was trying to figure out what it was, I thought he'd thrown the paper aside at the start.
..interesting...i guess ill have to actually watch the movie now
@damanjoseperez True, just a movie but if you ever ran competitively, especially longer distances, you can appreciate the heart of this movie.
thank lampbrain :)
the flying scotsman!
DON EVER QUIT
@8data you, sir, are a nice person
GOD said...He who honors me..i will honor!
Time for an update.
I was an extra in this movie
where would this movie be without slow-mo?
The good old days, when England used to win shit
@willmo42 He was quoting from the speech...
what a pious and devout lovely man
he placed the paper behind his right ear around the half way stage but this is not shown in the clip.
How do you account for the Hoocaust?
@YoungTeufelhunden Whoever you heard that from sounds like an awfully wise man.
@Mahthan Upvote ^
Paris 1900 1924 2024 olympic 🇨🇵
Where is the music?!?!?!?
Just so you know, in the video's info it says Liddell would not run on the Sabbath, but that is incorrect. He would not run on Sunday because he was a Christian; the Sabbath is Saturday, and is observed by Jews not Christians.
what is the name of the last song? thanks

No. Me.
Great Britain has a population of 62,300,000 people. In the London Olympics they won 65 medals. China has a population of 1,344,000,000. They won 88 medals.
The United States has a population of about 312,000,000 and won 104 medals. Numbers don't lie. Great Britain bloody well kicked it big time. Guess this is the "good old days"!
@thejuncopartner
What is important isn't being a religous person but rather a spiritual person......and adherence to sound principles.
@CallMeUncleTony -- it's Meatballs
Even though the barrier of religeon'the Sabbath"God honored his faith in the Word,therefore God upheld him.It still works today. Try God!
I was actually looking for the final scene when the two old men walk out of the church and one says to the other, "We did it. We ran them off their feet." Does he mean we out lived them all?
The phrase was "HE did it" not "WE did it" He was refering to Harold Abrahams, who said, while at college and facing discrimination as a Jew, said he would run them off their feet.
@YoungTeufelhunden you have free will in every religion not just Christianity.
out of the fricken hundreds of useless competitions they should win something I hope.
The script deviated from some of actual history, didn't it?
GOD speaks thru the BIBLE....HIs WORDs..written there.
jenny was like, 'run, forest, run!!!'
lol at 3:03 when dude falls.
Feel free to prove me wrong...
And no need to hate me... I'm not doing anything that spiteful.
Did Abrahams and Liddell ever meet in real life
@8data touche
New Zealand has a population of 4 million they won 13 medals, do the math, great Britain got kicked by the colonists.
I dont bowl on shabbos!
Yup - Britain was great, once.
@vnck25 are you sure??
For whatever reason, Judas never had a choice. But think about this:
Most of what we do has no effect on the outcome of the day. This is true for most of mankind. For an extreme few they change the world.
When Judas betrayed Jesus it was simply an event. In the end it changed everything, religion, the Roman empire, how billions have lived their lives and how many wars have been fought?
If Judas had not betrayed Jesus would his image ever become so powerful and inspiring?
have u ever run 400m weather he prepaired for it or not its still a solid event to run
@bushregmike don't be dumb. dude is clean as of now.they would have caught him.
@MadamePetrarca - I'm certain that you know that, for most Christians, Sunday is the Sabbath.
The bible says "Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work ...". It does not say which day from which to start counting. Many of us start working on Monday, so the seventh day is Sunday. If you start on Sunday and take your Sabbath on Sunday, that's fine. But why should I be required to imitate you?
lol
영국이 다시 신앙으로 일어서기를 바랍니다
Umm... actually it's the good old days when Scotland used to win shit...
lol, are they chanting USA! USA! USA?
Cause if they are than whoever wrote this really knew American fans.
Really? Since when god became that kind of trader? We weak people think that way. God honors everyone. even those who do not believe in him even those who hate him. That makes him God and us human.
Jamie, these blasphemers and atheists are not even worth your emotion. Truth and God's justice always preveils. Let's pray that they will repent.
@nafan75 To fulfill the prophecy, one of Jesus' close friends had to betray Him. But Judas still had the free will to repent. He didn't. Peter also betrayed Jesus in a sense, and he repented and became the leader of the first church.
@YoungTeufelhunden free will insofar as you follow God's will; any departure from such is sin.
wááááááááááá==)
GOD is love.He loves everyone!
However,honoring and loving are two different words.
Thanks for your comments.
