I loved how people first thought he was a monster but when he saw that little boy trapped on the burning Ferris wheel and saved him later on people appreciated him as a hero
The look on Joe's face at 00:06 is always so heartbreaking. He understands a scared child when he sees one, especially since the boy probably reminded him of Jill's child-self.
Yeah, and at 1:55 he is scared because he knows he's risking his own life doing this, but he doesn't give up because he has courage and the boy needs him.
Rider AE I'm amazed that some people diss this movie as a kiddie version of King Kong. In some cases it is, but people can't see it as it own thing like I have as a kid.
According to Bill Paxton, this was the toughest scene in the movie to film. Plus, the Ferris Wheel was full-scale, so they only had one chance of getting it right.
This was a heart pounding moment for this movie. I cried my eyes out every time when I see the ferris wheel getting ready to collapse. It was hooray moment when he saves Jason and sad at the same time because he risked his life to save him so he wouldn't die. I got a little emotional after this because this movie was part of my childhood and it just hit me.
mine to MJY was always my fave childhood monkey freaking loved the hell out of MJY joe was my favorest monkey why i remember back in the day i loved Joe so much not a day went by i wouldnt tune in just to see Mighty Joe why i'd give anything to bring back mighty joe to disney you ask me Mighty Joe is a legend that will forever live on in our hearts
Holy crap dude I didn't realize this movie was so close to my heart. Randomly searched it up and I started tearing up at this scene. The acting, the music, everything is amazing
This scene of Joe rescuing Jason is a reference to the 1949 Mighty Joe Young original, of the Burning Orphanage where he rescues a little girl from the burning orphanage, this movie actually stayed to true the classic movie. I love this movie along with King Kong 😊🦍
I loved how people first thought he was a monster but when he saw that little boy trapped on the burning Ferris wheel and saved him later on people appreciated him as a hero
The effects still hold up. The expressions on Joe’s face. As kids we never saw him as anything less than a real animal, and I still don’t. I think it’s a good remake.
When I was a kid I couldn't stop to cry, now I'm 18 years old and I can't resist to cry again 😭😭😭😭 Edit: As the more time passes, I’m getting older than 18 years old.
This scene showed Joe is much more than just an animal. Risking his life to save a little boy he doesn’t know. This is the moment that showed the world that Joe was not a monster they first believed him to be. He didn’t even just grab the kid, he placed his hand and waited for Jason to trust him before he can help him.
It's criminal how underrated this film is. It also goes to show that Charlize Theron can make a powerful performance without violence shown. Can anyone imagine a horror or action film being made today without blood? Have we degraded ourselves into being savages?
I saw this movie when I was a little kid. I watch it now with my kids. I'm 32 and This scene still makes me cry like a baby. I know it's just a movie but a baby crying for his mommy breaks my heart! I know I'm just a sentimental nerd!
I loved how at first people first thought he was a monster but when that little boy was trapped on the burning Ferris wheel and he saved him everybody appreciated him and hailed him as a hero
Superb music composition coupled with class animatronics and a heartwrenching scene. What really gets me is the eyes. They were so realistic, they say the eyes are the window to the soul and they managed to capture that and show a genuine care in Joe's eyes. The look of a kind soul recognising a young boy in danger as he once was and a need to help and save an innocent from a purely unselfish preposition. This was truely a beautiful scene.
When the ferris wheel tips over and both it and Joe hit the ground, I was screaming and wailing so loudly and hysterically and end up in tears at the same time! That is the most horrific site I have ever seen! Both Joe and the boy could've died!
I haven't seen this whole movie since I was a little kid. I remember I used to have it on VHS and would watch it all the time. This brought back alot of good memories!
In the original movie, joe saves a orphan baby girl when her orphanage catches fire, saving her from the flames but also when the building wall collapses, shielding her from the falling debris
I Am Very Proud Of Joe The Gorilla After He Risked His Life To Save Jason's Life From The Burning Ferris Wheel This Scene Makes Me Cry In Tears I Got Very Worried About Joe The Gorilla He Was Very Close To Commit Suicide He Just Landed On The Ground Unconscious
Love this Movie So Much As a Kid And As a Disney Fan This Last Part Of the Film Always Makes Me Cry And 😭 There will Never Be a Other Great Heart touching Movie Like This Also R.I.P Bill Braxton
This was aired on HBO and Star Movies when I was a kid, back before 2008's, one of my fav. movies. Man that decade was so nostaglic, sitting in front of TV and watching all these movies! George of the Jungle, Jingle all the way, The Mummy, The Mummy returns, Dunston checks in, Ace Ventura pet detective, Liar liar and so many more!
For some reason, after I was a little little kid and watched Mighty Joe Young for the first time, this is the one scene that kept popping in my head once in a while. FINALLY I FOUND OUT WHICH MOVIE IT CAME FROM
I watched that movie when I was a boy, not more than 4-5. and because of this scene I was always afraid of the Wheel, but I reassured myself saying that if it turns bad Joe will be there
I havent seen this movie in so long. I remember being 5 and bawling at this part AND when they locked Joe away. But this scene is just too much for my little heart.
I'm not even looking at the video, I'm just listening to a three second bit and I've had to stop or I'm going to cry in front of everyone in the Sixth Form Computer Room
This is one of my favorite scene of all time from the movie "mighty Joe Young".. I also love this movie, this movie is also one of my favorite Disney movie of all time.. ❤️❤️🫶🫶😊😊 This movie is also Awsome & amazing....
Years ago, Joe needed someone to save him when he was in danger. He's returning the favor.

I loved how people first thought he was a monster but when he saw that little boy trapped on the burning Ferris wheel and saved him later on people appreciated him as a hero
@@theamazingandtalentedblake8296 yeah, Joe is very gentle and kind
Practically he gives his life for him.
@@jubileegabrielmateo7437 and also he’s a friend
The look on Joe's face at 00:06 is always so heartbreaking. He understands a scared child when he sees one, especially since the boy probably reminded him of Jill's child-self.
+ Regular Invader
Yes, it does. It also reminds him of himself the night he (Joe) lost his mother to Strasser and his gang of poachers.
Regular Invader at first I though he was gonna hurt that kid
Yeah, and at 1:55 he is scared because he knows he's risking his own life doing this, but he doesn't give up because he has courage and the boy needs him.
Sure goes to show us that animals have feelings, even for others not the same species
@@madeleinejstanway5288 Imanol Lopez Romero: how old are you and do you see Pete's Dragon 2016?
I always tear up when Joe risked his life to save little Jason. I'm almost 30 & this scene still reduces me to tears.
Even though it’s revealed that Joe survived as well.
Same exact here I'm almost 30 still cry everytime
Nothing wrong with that
I was crying at this two days ago like you lot.
Me 2
the impact of his back hitting the ground takes my breath away every time. watching him cradle the boy to protect him from the fall is heart breaking
CatherineH95 i cried
Cause from that fall that boy would have fell from his arm so that’s why he covered him
I literally felt the impact
CatherineH95
Imanol Lopez Romero: how old are you and do you see The Fox and The Hound?
I was worried that Joe was dead and I actually cried
I used to watch this movie when I was a little kid. It was part of my childhood and I grew up with it.
me too man
Me three
Me four
Rider AE I'm amazed that some people diss this movie as a kiddie version of King Kong. In some cases it is, but people can't see it as it own thing like I have as a kid.
Rider AE I Had A VCR Tape Of This Movie
Can we all just appreciate the mother’s performance? That’s some of the best acting i’ve ever seen.

Me too 😪
He killed a monster, and saved an innocent life, you can’t get more heroic than that.
I always tear up when jo starts asking Joe to wake up
Yes well the poacher with the single finger is at last deceased 😂
Joe: Don’t Worry 😉 Jason. I’ll Save You!
I love it when Gregg says afterwards "Hey, big guy, that's no way to ride the Ferris Wheel!"
I love Bill Paxton💙💜
@@genociderex93imperator84 he also acted in 2015 well a game that he acted
He says yah big balloga but yeah definitely made me laugh a bit after crying my eyes out. Just rewatched it today.
Jason: Look Out 👀
2:19 The look in Joe's face is kind and caring. It's like he's telling the frightened kid "Come on, I got you."
I'm Gonna Help Him Oh Man
Jason: Thank You 🙏
This scene of Joe rescuing Jason is a reference to the 1949 Mighty Joe Young original, of the Burning Orphanage where he rescues a little girl from the burning orphanage, this movie actually stayed to true the classic movie. I love this movie along with King Kong 😊🦍
Such a classic 💙
This scene is great and very emotional, though I think the thing about him saving a girl from a burning orphanage does sound more poetic.
They both are equally !
I didn't expect to burst into tears but this scene combined with the music wrecked me. Joe is a hero, not a monster
And he,s not a monster he,s a gorilla and a gorilla is an animal and he,s just an animal
Jason's father in Mighty Joe Young 1998 also actor of TITANIC 1997 (Search the Titanic wreck after sinking).
I can relate to that, I was bawling my eyes out, but mostly when everyone even Jill thought Joe died.

Great point! Shows how fickle human nature is 😂
The effects still hold up. The expressions on Joe’s face. As kids we never saw him as anything less than a real animal, and I still don’t. I think it’s a good remake.
Joe risked his life to save Jason. I was so happy that both Jason & Joe were alright at the end
Yeah, I think seeing Jason in danger, wanting his mother, reminded Joe of himself on the night his mother was killed.
I love how the news crews got this scene on TV, so everyone sees Joe for the hero he is as he risks his life to save the boy.
No matter how many times I watch this movie I still cry so hard in this scene. Joe is my hero!
Rest In Peace, Bill Paxton.
When I was a kid I couldn't stop to cry, now I'm 18 years old and I can't resist to cry again 😭😭😭😭
Edit: As the more time passes, I’m getting older than 18 years old.
same here
Me to bro
Same
This scene gives me shivers and tears in my eyes every time especially when Joe protects the child during the fall
Seeing the poor boy alone and about to die reminded Joe of his past, that may be the reason why he saved Jason from imminent death.
not 2 mention he also gave all those cops a perfectly strong excuse 2 hold fire, what if da kid accidentally got shot instead of Joe.
Yes, but it was the only option to climb,
This scene showed Joe is much more than just an animal. Risking his life to save a little boy he doesn’t know. This is the moment that showed the world that Joe was not a monster they first believed him to be.
He didn’t even just grab the kid, he placed his hand and waited for Jason to trust him before he can help him.
Joe’s thoughts: He’s the boy from the Van who waved at me. I got to go help him down.
WAIT A MINUTE I JUST NOW REALIZED THAT IS THE BOY FROM THE VAN!!
Is it really? The boy in the van looked a bit older than Jason IMO.
@Alea Anderson nope it was him you can tell by the way he says mom and the way he looks.
Joe was really sweet rescuing Jason 216 his eye brows moved up " come on buddy I got you "
I'M NOT CRYING. YOU'RE CRYING!!
Dinozilla626 it's okay dude if you need to cry than cry
@@alexconn7473 "Aw man. I'm having a real existential moment right now! [shouting while crying] WHAT HAVE I DONE WITH MY LIFE?!!!!!"
Such an inspiring scene! I love the score by James Horner!
Brings me to tears Every time. Mighty Joe Young is phenomenal
I sure am!
This is without a doubt a scenario filmed with perfection combined with a great music score that stirs up the emotions.
Mighty Joe Young is my hero and thats that! :)
"JOE'S REACTION WHEN HE SEES JASON STUCK UP THERE!!!!
After almost 20 years this movie is still one of my personal favorites
That actress who played Jason's mom knows how to put emotions into me omg she's good
It's criminal how underrated this film is. It also goes to show that Charlize Theron can make a powerful performance without violence shown. Can anyone imagine a horror or action film being made today without blood? Have we degraded ourselves into being savages?
this scene inspires me to believe not only humans can be heroes (hero doesnt have to have super powers)
The music in this scene is unreal. Always gets the emotions going
That's James Horner for ya
I loved this scene as a kid, now I watch it and the tear are running down my face. Such a good scene
It was never one of my favorite movies, but this scene even after over 20 years still gets me
I saw this movie when I was a little kid. I watch it now with my kids. I'm 32 and This scene still makes me cry like a baby. I know it's just a movie but a baby crying for his mommy breaks my heart! I know I'm just a sentimental nerd!
I loved how at first people first thought he was a monster but when that little boy was trapped on the burning Ferris wheel and he saved him everybody appreciated him and hailed him as a hero
Remember watching this in 1999 and having tears 😢
00:14 Looked back at the crowd where Jill was at like I'm going up there to save this boy even if it takes my own life. LEGEND 🦍😤
This movie had a fantastic soundtrack. Also, Joe's make up and puppeteering is so good! Look at the expressions in his eyes!
The CGI on this is surprisingly just as good as King Kong, and I think this came out in like the 90s
Geeky Nerdy yeah it did came out in 1998
That boy that acted as Jason was so cute I want my son to look like that
Superb music composition coupled with class animatronics and a heartwrenching scene. What really gets me is the eyes.

Can we just appreciate Joe's bravery. My favorite movie!!!
Everyone needs a hero ❤

Well, now I'm absolutely crying my eyes out. Joe and the little boy 😢❤
"JASON"! Ethan Mars would have cried in this scene. 10/10!
That mom is an awesome actress
Absolutely! I always said I thought her performance was outstanding.
@@SophieHarding1994 Especially when she voiced Courtney Gripling on 'As Told by Ginger' back in those Nickelodeon days.
After all these years I still get choked up when I watch this scene.
There are only two movies that make me cry no matter what- 'Mighty Joe Young' and 'Remember The Titans'... Damn you, UA-cam for suggesting this scene!
Great scene and one of my favorite James Horner scores. He understood how to score emotion probably better than any composer.
Do you know the songs name I've been trying to find it
Hans Zimmer would like to have a word with you about that comment 😂
He Was a Mighty Hero For Saving the Boy on the Ferris Wheel.
0:16 now Joe remember when he loses his mother
Best movie I've ever watched. Watched it more than 25 times as a young child
James Horner did the music to this movie.
Yes and and I miss him dearly
I remember when I first saw this. I thought Joe was gonna die, cuz king kong always dies. But it's a kids movie, there's gotta be a happy ending :)
Also the original mighty joe young didn't die.
+TheDisneyLover58 good point. I didn't know there was an original mighty joe young already when this came out though. I was only 5 lol
+TheDisneyLover58 this is practically king kong really isn't it
Umm... Let's talk about Old Yeller.
I always wonder how they film scenes like this. Did they really topple a real ferris wheel?
Yes
I haven't seen this whole movie since I was a little kid. I remember I used to have it on VHS and would watch it all the time. This brought back alot of good memories!
In the original movie, joe saves a orphan baby girl when her orphanage catches fire, saving her from the flames but also when the building wall collapses, shielding her from the falling debris
Gosh...no matter how often I see this, I cry every time 😭
I cry at the beginning. When the wheel is on fire and joe sees the boy i just started crying
hi Christina my name is walter you are cute btw I like this move but this part very scary I grew up on a carnival
charlize theron as an actress and this film are both unbelievably underrated.
I cried again with this scene😭🦍 affortunally he survived
This scene was depressing and happy at the same time😰😄

Joe: Whoa. This isn't as easy as I thought.
Anyone else get emotional when they watch this scene?
I do I try to fight it but I never win
He was smart as fk, he waited for the exact time to drop from the wheel so the fall wouldn't be fatal neither for him or the kid.. A HERO
I love this movie.
Still til this day.
Such a hero saving Jason.
I definitely do love the background music.

Who cried when we all thought Joe died?

This movie is also Awsome & amazing....
No other movie makes me cry as much as this one does! Its sooo sad :(
One of the best climatic scenes I’ve seen.
Man gets me every time 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I love that shot of Charlize at 1:26-1:32
I become a nervous wreck everytime I hear that thud at 3:15
Charlize is so beautiful. I watched this movie for the first time in years and cried like a baby. I forgot how heart wrenching this scene is.
Joe may look vicious, but he has a gentle heart.
