Ben-Hur | Chariot Race | FULL SCENE | Warner Classics

 

Ben-Hur (Charlton Heston) takes on Messala (Stephen Boyd) in an ancient roman chariot race. This scene is one of the greatest stunt feats in film history, choreographed by Enos Edward "Yakima" Canutt and shot at Cinecittá Studios, outside of Rome. The scene took nearly a year to film and over 70 horses were bought and imported for the scene.

Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper!
