  • Slim Pickens was always my favorite rodeo clown !!!! EEEEEHAAAA

  • major kong and his boys should be sent on a new destitation today............

  • NUKE THE WHALES!!!

  • Oh well... give it a go, or never know, as they say. Well done, Major Kong.

  • IF you watched the ENTIRE movie you would realize that Major Kong & his crew were only following orders. They received a message & knew that they would only get such orders only if the Russians had already nuked Washington. They followed their orders to a T. They DID NOT receive the abort code due to damage that was done to the B 52's C.R.M. 114, when the Russians tried to shoot them down, nor did they know about the dooms day machine. It is a dark comedy! Watch the rest of it you stupid kids!

  • !!

    I'm currently very confused as to what this film is about..

  • Anyone notice, Slim Pickens looks a lot like Astronaut Jim Lovell of Apollo 13.

  • THE POWER BETWEEN THE THIGHS!!!!

  • HI MR. LINGAN!!! (and everyone else in my class about to watch this clip...) XD

  • Now that is why I call a very expensive suicide! :-)

  • Now that is why I call a very expensive suicide! :-)

  • Nuke them till they glow bright orange!!!!!

  • Ground control to Major Kong.

  • "You're coming in hot."

  • one of the best ways to go

  • These are the greatest scenes ever shot!

  • Is that Shane Rimmer from thunderbirds I hear>

  • Is Scott Tracy from thunderbirds I hear?

  • Yes, it is James Earl Jones. He sounds a bit like Darth Vader even withouth the scuba gear :)

  • And damn he was young then...

  • Nice.

  • omg! is that James Earl Jones?

  • omg, I love the whole cowboy yell while he rides it down... I mean, it's sooo realistic

  • Turned to dust b4 he even had a chance to scattered in the wind!

    Ever atom in his body was instantly vaporized

    Man, now tht's a hell of a way to go out

  • I reckon that would have to be one of the coolest ways to go out, if you had to pick one, it would have to be up there.

  • Well he wasn't really left a choice. the electronics were fried, and he knew that as soon as he fixed it he wouldn't have time to escape. He turned lemons into lemonade, and he chased the dragon and rode him down. Classic Scene. One of those moments that just sticks with ya... kinda takes your breath away.

  • Agreed. My girlfriend recently had to write a paper over some characters from the movie. She called Kong crazy because he rode the bomb; I just say he's a patriot, and he did what had to be done. I don't think he could have gotten off the bomb even had he wanted to.

  • ooh yess, he did what had to be done: TO CAUSE THE END OF THE WORLD.(!)

    and yes, you have the right scale of values!

    1 patriotism

    2 the life on the planet

    congratulation boy!

  • @pi73ppo

    I dont understand how anyone could give you a thumbs down for this. Well unless they are retarded rednecks. :rolleyes:

  • Funny Major Kong had no idea he was causing the end of the world, this was the crazy general's fault.

    Kong thought he was just doing his duty to do whatever he could to protect his home and the people he loves. Kind of like what we did to Japan, and I stand by it.

  • Ground Control to Major Kong !

  • a scene that is both hilarious and terrifying...kubrick at his best

  • Thats how I want to go. Slim Pickens, a Great!

  • Dear Major Kong: "Bomb doors, negative function, ... and, this is NOT CNN!"

    (I miss Slim Pickens.)

  • YEAHHHHH! oh wait, maybe this isn't such a good idea--BOOOOOOOOM.

  • lol unreal tournament 1,used the drstrangelove gun lol

  • HELL OF A WAY TO DIE!!

  • 4:44 = most horrifying, stunning, multi-layered celluloid visual ever

  • Shinobubu - i suppose you'd have us do away with our SOCIALIST police and justice systems, and our SOCIALIST fire stations and fire fighters, and our SOCIALIST roads and highways too?

  • Hey- what about Major Kong?

    WWAAAAAHOOOO!

    LMAO. This film was just so fucking great.

  • Classic hero :))

  • YAHOIOOO! YAHOOOOOOOOOOOO! "Hey, What about Major Kong?. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HOuuuuuuu! YAAAAAAAAAA WHAHAAAAAAAAA! WHOOOO HU HU! WHAAAAAAAAAAAAhaAAAAAAAAA. BOOOOOOMMMM

    This was the dialog for Slim Pickens Bomb riden!

  • 5:03 is that someone's pubes in the lower left corner?? :0

    and this scene makes me go, 'FUCK YEAH!!'

  • Hahahahaha great.

  • That major Kong is one motivated son of a bitch!

  • Anyone remember that old PC game ( or was it on the Amiga?) Nuclear War? That scene was in the intro. I always wondered who came up with that until i saw this :)

  • jaja

    un clasico

  • The greatest movie of all time and so true today.

  • "Fry'in chickens in the barnyard!!!"

  • thats why we should love the bomb

  • 4:43 "...Hey, what about Major Kong?" Awesome movie, always worth watching

  • A metaphor for life itself. No one gets out alive. You might as well enjoy it while it lasts.

  • Definaly the ride to Hell

  • The song is "When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again", a popular Civil War song.

    (It's known to a lot of children as "The Ants Go Marching", it has the same tune.)

  • That's the way I want to go.

    Major Kong, I salute you.

  • The entire world should drop a bomb over USA, the worst shit ever.

  • The world with out the US is the world with out Internet, Technology, Computers, MP3 Players. Everything you hold dear will be gone along with us :P you stupid socialist parasite.

  • WE DO NOT NEED YOUR KAFIR EVIL TECHNOLOGY!!! WE ONLY NEED OUR QURAN AND PRECIOUS, PRECIOUS SAND!!! ALLLAH LALALALALALALAL AKBAR JIHAD MOHAMMAD DURKA . fuckin durr.

  • Nuke mecca and medina and qom

  • Suck my semen squirt, you socialist skank!

  • Ye Haw! Bomb Irannn ,just like lennengrad, Hi there Mr.Admadijihad we gonna turn mecca into pebbles and the pebbles into sand.

    Nuke Tehran tell their is nothing but green glasss ohh oh ohhh yeahh da da dada

  • YOUR Computers and YOUR MP3 Players?... hm at least for THOSE 2 i know for SURE that they were not invented by an american... but anyhow, you're right about the Internet. And the 3 quadrillion pornsites with it. That'd be a shame.

  • only if they bombed India, Japan, and then every other 'western' trade country... defensive patriotism in the face of stupidity is one thing, but let's not go getting all crazy with it! lol

  • haha, MP3, Computers and others were inventetd by German scientists but nevermind...

  • Rocket science too! Captured German scientists got the USA and Soviet Union into space.

  • what are you ...one of those smelly muslims?

  • Nuke Argentinia. I thought you maricones learned your lessons when the brits kicked your sorry pussy asses in the falklands

  • yeah they just forgot the guy in the bomb room

    well at least it would be a fun ride

  • where to get the song? ("bomb run")

  • what's that march music in the background (name)?

    love the movie

  • I bet that was a heck of a ride (until the end, that is)!!!

  • thats how i would want to go if the world was gonna end

  • I never fail to both laugh and cry at this scene.

  • THAT... IS THE WAY TO GO OUT!!!

  • That's in my top ten "ways to go" list.

  • What is this song called? :O please someone tell me!

  • Just out of curiosity, with an airspeed of about 600 mph and at the altitude that this aircraft was flying, do you think that the aircrew of this B-52 survived the airblast of this explosion? Just wondering.

  • rofl

  • Major Kong where are you now that we need you? Sleep. ...America.......sleep..

  • We had Vader, Slim Pickens, a B-52 and 2 x Thermonuclear warheads, plus they were flying under the radar.

    Those poor Russkies never had a chance.

  • If you look at the shadow on the ground, it  looks like a B-17 Flying Fortress, not a B-52.

  • They used a B-17 when they filmed this; they slowed down the camera frame rate while filming so as to make the plane appear to be going faster,

  • If you ever go to Air Show,see a B-52 display. ask them

    Where Major Kong?

  • that is how i want to die riding a nuke down on russkies

  • should drop a nuke on mecca and medina

  • @jerk

    Hi, Jerk. Here you are talking always the same shit and spilling your hate! Hard for you to suffer such a big inferiority complex! Ever tried to get rid of it? To get rid of your whole spoiled, useless life?

  • Major Kong should have rode the nuke down on berlin or hamburg at least the russkies had balls

  • should drop a nuke on alaska, we simply don't need it.

  • LOL!!!!!

  • Nice clip nk, but did I miss something? Don't see where it's 'extended'. If I did miss something, then apologies. tc!

  • no apology needed; it is kind of vague if one doesn't look at any others... what i meant by "extended" was to define this clip from the others I could find at the time that only included the actual bomb drop/ride to earth...

  • at least it would prevent Palin 2012.

  • the end of the world is coming anyway... xD

  • I'd take Palin over another term of Obama and his communist, flouridation of children's ice cream agenda!

  • Brilliant!!!

  • Should drop a nuke on your sorry ass along with the kikes.

  • Kikes?!? way to squash the hateful bullshit. Great job!

  • I dont care if your my next door neighbor! He should have dropped it on you!

  • Ye Haw! Bomb Irannn ,just like lennengrad, Hi there Mr.Admadijihad we gonna turn mecca into pebbles and the pebbles into sand.

    Nuke Tehran tell their is nothing but green glasss ohh oh ohhh yeahh da da dada

  • Curas1, you'd piss a lotta muslims off, and Mecca has no strategic value!

  • Nuke them till they glow bright orange!!!!!

  • How about 'Bat Guano, if that really is your name...' A true cold war classic... Peter Sellers is the true star... 3 Separate roles? Come on!

  • Too bad we didn't do this in Afganistan. To Afganistan and the Taliban,either give us Osama Bin Ladin & Ayman Al-Zyawahiri or recieve multiple hyrdogen bomb strikes by B-52/B-1s or submairine launched nuclear missles.

    Thus the "War on Terror" would have ended sooner.

  • 1. Dropping nukes is dangerous and pollutes 2. We would be nuked by everyone else as part of a treaty if we did that.

  • If there was a Darwin Award for movie characters, Major Kong would win hands down.

    Rest In Peace, Slim Pickens

  • epic scene

  • "I'm gonna git dem bomb doors open if it hairlips everybody on Bear Creek."  LOL one of my alltime favorite movie lines.

  • I've often wondered if that line has any deeper meaning or significance. I haven't seen enough western movies to see if it was used elsewhere.

  • Reminds me of Sarge from Red vs Blue.

  • whats interesting is it in unlikely any black man had a operational role in flying a B52 in 1964

  • another reason Kubrick rocked

  • Happily, you are mistaken. The Air Force was the first service to desegregate and had been integrated since the 50's. In fact, David Harris, the first black civilian airline pilot, had retired from the Air Force where he'd previously flown both B-47's and B-52's.

  • thanks for the knowledge! :}

  • the more you know...

  • I thought the Army integrated in 1948.

  • That's because Kubrick understood what the makeup of the US Army was really like. Take it from an Army brat who lived through that period. And, what a great early appearance by James Earl Jones!

  • Nuclear Warhead

    Handle With Care

  • According to people who worked on this film, Pickens didn't know the film was supposed to be a comedy, and his authentic Southern drawl confused the crew who thought he was a method actor and was "finding" his character. He'd later state, "After 'Dr. Strangelove', the roles, dressing rooms and paychecks all started gettin' bigger."

  • is it just me or is that a very young james earl jones?

  • omg it's Darth Vader

  • Slim Pickens rules..LOL I loved in 1941

    "You ain't gettin' shit outta me! I been constipated all week, and there ain't a damn thing you can do about it!!" LOL

  • what is the song in the backround? i cant seem to find it

  • The song is based on "When Johnny Comes Marching Home".

  • Absolutely that's James Earl Jones!

  • I KNEW HE SOUNDED LIKE DARTH VADER!!! But is it just me or does that B-52 need to pull up?

  • They were flying under Russian radar.

  • That was Vader (James Earl Jones) - same voice.

  • look for..."The animals went in two by two"

    We sang this once in school...in 5th grade *lol*

    It's like "The animals went in two by two hurra, hurra, the wasp the ant and the bumblebee hurra hurra the animals went in two by two the X, the Y and the kangoroo hurra, hurra and they all went into the arch for to get out of the rain..." OH MY GOSH! The old times...I'm missin' them so much :D

  • the animals died two by two, by the way of radioactive fallout hura hura!

  • Its been a long road for you Cowboy, but you mother has got divorced. . . . . . . . . . You looser ! hahahahaaa!
  • Major Kong the fucking man

  • good video....B52 !

  • Too bad you don't have the part before this where they are being chased by the "nuclear tipped" SAM missiles.

  • Darth Vader flying an attack run. He had the tables turned on him 13 years later.

  • captures our cold warriors perfectly - we could use a few now

  • From Steven Colbert:

    "The only way for Americans to travel to other countries is by bomb."

  • Be careful what you wish for, you might get a crazed Texan...wait a minute

  • One of the best ever movie scenes. Slim Pickens played it fantasticly! Really cool seeing a young James Earl Jones in it.

    Ridem Slim!

  • Hell of a way to go!

  • The Ultimate Suicide Bomber --George Bush Hell Yeah yee haw!

  • If ya gotta go.....go with STYLE!

  • Major Kong was in it for the lawl.

  • Major Kong -Ultimate suicide Bomber!!!Hell Yeah!

  • GET SOME~~~~!!!!!

  • First words said by 101st Atk Helicopter when we cut the first Hellfires loose on some Iraqi radar sites in the first Gulf War. Pretty Colors!

  • I have to love the use of the same music track in all the aircraft sequences. Builds up a sense of inevitable duty.

  • indeed datafork. it's a shame we aren't all born mindless automatons.

  • That is a great way to die

  • Hell yes.

  • Yeah, you're right, but if you want to see the full movie online, I recommend you this site:

    blogger-films.blogspot. *com/2008/10/dr-strangelove-or­-how-i-learned-to-stop.html

  • It was '64... my cousins and I snuck into the theatre. When I saw this scene I thought about all those stupid duck under your desk and cover civil defense drills in school... what a bunch of crap.

  • being around during the cold war 80's, i was petrified enough then... if i were around in the 50's and 60's, well, i don't think i would have made it out without some forceable old school electro-shock...

  • I don't know why the cold war didn't scare me. I was around in the 60s. But Dr.Strangelove always rocked. Slim Pickins R.I.P.

  • Mr. Kong is such a beautiful character, a completely infallible sense of duty. to bad our own government could not be so pure and benevolent.

  • I'd be surfin the fucker firin off machine gun rounds and the noobs below!

  • Undeniably the manliest way to die.

  • "Hey, what about Major Kong?" ...and the rest is movie history.

  • Yeaahaaaaaaaaa!!!

  • My favorite movie of all time! My parents introduced me too it as a kid. The Air Force was very upset at the accuracy of how these B-52 scenes were portrayed. Apparently the Air Force didn't realize it was public record.

  • America GOES ALL THE WAY FROM TIERRA DEL FUEGO ARGENTINA ALL THE WAY UP NORTH TO THE LAST OF ALUTIAN ISLANDS IN ALASKA.. I FIND IT STUPID for a single country to MONOPOLIZE the name of AMERICA.. It would be if tomorrow the FRENCH decided to call themselves THE EUROPEANS.. or the Hindus decided that they were THE ASIANS.... idiots..

  • your screen name says it all. let me guess, you are jane fonda.

  • or a particularly bitter Vancouverite...

  • Definitely one of the best scenes I've ever seen.

    Everybody freaking out because it didn't go as planned, then Major Kong going in an getting the job done. Haha, then riding the bomb to oblivion. So many levels of experience going on here

  • Obama will deliver cupcakes and tea and a good blow job for U.S. enemies. Bend over American if you elect Obama and take it in the ass. However, I volunteer to override that piece of human shit and will bomb Canada, England, Australia,New zealand, free of charge. Serbia, Romania, France, Germany, Brazil I will charge money because I believe they might negotiate.

  • uummmmmmm... well, damn!

    8x

  • who you think is suitable for the crown.if you say McCain im going to rape you

  • WHAT A WAY TO DIE!!!AWESOME!!!

  • That must have been fun!

  • What a way to go, riding the bomb into Commie scum.

  • dont bad mouth communism

  • screw communism. eastern europe was beautiful before those raping russian bastards occupied it for 50 years.

  • i thought he said negative fuck-shun

    when all else fails hit it with your hat....

  • James Earl Jones kicks so much ass!!

    And yes, as an American let them ridicule all they want. I just dont think you must have much of a sense of humor. One the best movies ever made!!

  • And you laugh at a movie created by an individual who helped pull of one of the biggest hoodwinks ever perpetrated on the American people (of which you and/or your parents helped pay for) and yet you still praise him.

    Did it ever occur to you, just for an instant, that maybe he was ridiculing Americans in this film?

  • #1 - The first election was stolen via hanging chads in a state run by GWB's brother. The second election was won by a matter of one state, angered many people and cast a grey pall over the electoral college system. This crap conversation isn't worth my taking hours to explain the vast number of issues in both elections such as Nadar's interference, the counting of absentee ballots, etc., etc., so and so forth to you.

  • #2 - As far as my view of the movie: "given the fact that the movie is actually about BOTH sides being so blinded by propaganda that they don't even realize that they've put their wars into the hands of complete idiot generals and psychopaths; with this guy being the ultimate example of the manipulated soldier lied to about the reasoning behind his objective -something certainly not Exclusively American-...."

  • With that, I'm done approving/replying to your comments. You speak much shit with no actual knowledge.

  • Right. The "majority of Americans are against the war", and have been for the "last 4-6 years", but they voted for GWB in 2004. That makes sense. Is it you that doesn't know how to read?

    As for being a moron, instead of viewing war for what it is (tragic & horrific) you choose to acknowledge the humor in its satire & consider yourself intellectual for doing so. That's just pathetic.

    I wonder what the Iraqis, Afghanastanis and Iranians (among others) would think of your sense of humor.

  • Lastly, if it was "no shit", then why did you ask me what it was that you eat up? Twice??!

    See, this is why you really should learn to use proper grammer. It's not about seeking a refuge (good word - bravo) for lack of a strong arguement. It's about being able to put into words what's in your head SO PEOPLE CAN FUCKING UNDERSTAND YOU. But given the logic in your previous arguments, I doubt even perfect grammer may help in your case.

    Now, have a nice day,

  • "Now, as far as having the nerve to try to tell Me, who you've never met...."

    I never asked you anything, dipshit. You used the word 'what' in two sentences above. Does this mean that those statements are now, miraculously, questions in your world?
