Racing has taken lot of lives, watch Rush 2013 , Niki Lauda story .

[@Tommytumee]

Rush is as good as Ford v Ferrari

[@allenporter6586]

Ummmm, racing has taken the lives of a lot of legends. Thankfully it has gotten safer over the past 50 years, but the key word is "safer" not "safe". Many of the safety features in passenger cars came from racing, because if it'll keep you safer at 180mph it'll also keep you safer at 60mph. After 1955, when a driver trying to do the whole 24hrs went off the track over a bank and into the crowd killing over 50 spectators they made it against the rules to drive the entire 24. I believe the longest stint a driver can do is either 4 or 6 hours before he HAS to switch for a couple hours. 7,000 RPM doesn't mean 91mph, it depends on the gearing. I'm sure you've heard Japanese motorcycles scream by, they can often be at 10-12,000 RPM, and a modern F1 car run won't run at less than 14,000 RPM. Usually the smaller the engine the more RPM. The car in the movie was using a big engine, so 7,000 RPM in 5th gear was well over 200 mph or 320 kph.

The nod from Enzo Ferrari to Ken at the end of the race tells us that everyone knew who really won.

[@LeMaqnifique]

And the importance of Enzo hinself. Miles lost the trophy but nod from THE LEGEND is enough

[@BayAreaMike99]

I wanna know some crazy real life trivia and the Le Mans 66 safari actually never attended also the previous year shown in the movie 1965 where they told Ken Miles he’s not allowed to race Leo BB all that never happened. He actually participated in the race and ended up having transmission failure. I believe the Leo BB thing was fabricated. It would’ve been better, but I see they had to have a inside antagonist.

[@beastmodemn1037]

I found out that that actually never happened, Enzo Ferrari actually never did that to Ken. He wasn’t even at the end of the Le Mans race

[@BobbyTunes88]

Im 74 yrs old, and remember this all happening. As an avid race fan, and former driver, I can tell you that this story is 90% true. Actually, the caracter "bebe" was very supportive and NOT a dick as the movie portrays him. In reality, he had much respect for Carrol Shelby. Additionally, race car drivers frequently die and get crippled. Myself, I can only walk slowly, due to the MANY surgeries that Ive had to endure to survive. In the movie the Ferrari driver that blew up his engine (in real life), was Lorenzo Bandini ( I was also a fan of his)..... Later that year, he burned to death at Monaco when his Ferrari hit a wall. The "human" side of racing is rarely told, and being from Texas, the BEST driver that EVER existed is A.J.FOYT. Somehow he is STILL alive @ 89 yrs old!!!!! He is a 4-time Indy 500 winner....AND the 2nd AMERICAN driver to win at Le Mans, driving one of Fords gt40s......Please look up his bio, an INCREDIBLE human being.....

[@caldwellkelley3084]

I'm an American from the 60's. Yeah, I'll have go with Jim Clark! World Champ and Indy winner! Heck of a driver! Loved them all!

[@BayAreaMike99]

And the fact in the movie they said 10 Miles couldn’t race for 65 was utter crap he raced but I think he had transmission or engine problems didn’t finish They did it so there was a actual protagonist cause Ford spent $10 million on building a race car when he was only going million so Ford in the story kind of seems like a crybaby and a cheapskate so they need to make Leo seem more of a menace and be the one “tearing it apart from inside!” they always need that movies one person who doesn’t believe them bringing them down

[@mumuspain2086]

Yeah I'm American and I'll say Jim Clark is the GOAT any day

[@TheReturnOfSak]

Before the movie: "I know nothing of cars. I don't know how I'll like it." 1 hour in: "YES! KEN! WIN! WIN! WIN! HELL YEAH!!!!!!!" The sign of a great story.

[@theaikidoka]

Though it was edited out of the YT version, I love that Henry Ford II was crying for his Dad missing out experiencing the GT40, not for himself. He knew his Dad would have been incredibly proud of the work that the team put in. It's a lovely little moment.

[@John-ir4id]

I wonder if he knew his dad was a conspiracy theorist nutjob and antisemite, too...

[@michaelriddick7116]

I was just going to comment it was a shame the editor disrespected the movie so badly by cutting it :( Its such a powerful scene that really humanizes Ford, jr. He's not a millionaie after that ... he's a son who misses his dad 😢💔😭😭

[@criseist9786]

Absolutely. I noticed that a lot of videos seem to miss that note, which is quite sad. It's a good moment

[@radicaladz]

It also is a great moment of bursting the balloon of toxic machismo you would think a movie like this would lay on thick. It's certainly there and the guys are still very stoic and of the time, but this moment, the relationship with Peter and Mollie, and the moment of Ken choosing to put his own ego aside and be a team player, even at the risk of not coming first, is some really powerful storytelling that allows the leads to grapple with what it means to be a man, a good husband and father, a heroic figure.

[@rhekman]

Indeed, Henry's dad Edsel Ford was a big proponent of racing, styling, and innovation within the company. It was bittersweet that Henry II became Ford CEO so young because Edsel died of stomach cancer at 49 years old.

[@gokarting1018]

Shelby was never the same after his friend Ken died in many interviews Shelby said that his biggest regret was telling Ken to slow down

[@denniswashburn9662]

YEP TRUE STORY WAS IT WAS CARROLLS IDEA FOR THE 1 2 3 FINISH. IT WAS TRUE ABOUT THE TECHNICALITY THAT CAUSED KEN MILES AND DENNIS HUMME TO LOSE THE RACE. KEN WAS A WWII TANK MECHANIC, HENCE HIS ENGINEERING SKILLS.

[@jeffpawlinski3210]

"Rush" directed by Ron Howard is another excellent race film about two specific Formula 1 race car rivals but it's story arc is much deeper than the competition on the race track. It has many life lessons that really hit you in the feels.

“Don't think of it as curse that you've been given an enemy in life. A wise man gets more from his enemies than a fool from his friends.”

Carrol Shelby was one of the nation’s longest living heart transplant recipients having received a heart in 1990 which kept him going strong until he died in 2012 at 89 years old. Rush is another fantastic movie about auto racing and as much as I love this movie

[@smk4565]

Lots of drivers have died racing, in the 50s and 60s it was probably dozens of people a year, but now it is way safer and quite rare. Ayrton Senna and Dale Earnhardt are probably the most recent and most famous drivers to die on track.

[@vinnycordeiro]

You forgot Dan Wheldon as well.

[@noveltyrobot]

Justice for Jules Bianchi and Antoine Hubert

[@Gecko....]

Jules Bianchi from F1 and Dan Wheldon, Justin Wilson of IndyCar died more recently. Both those sports used to be highly dangerous, over 50 F1 drivers have died.

[@Jackyb138]

James Dean!

[@goodshipkaraboudjan]

Certainly not the most recent at all. Even at Le Mans people have died since.

[@twistedzombigon3187]

RPM doesn't determine the speed of the car. 7000 rpm is a different speed in different gears. The Ford GT40 in 1966 could go 200 mph( 322 kph)

[@hellfire0352]

I was just going to comment on this, even in the movie they said they got up to 218 mph (350 kph) then again, she read it of LinkedIn, so I wasn’t expecting much.

[@mgordon1100]

It was cringe to hear her reading that about RPM's. Sure enough, the RPM's of the wheels determine the speed of the car, but when people talk about RPM's they are referring to the engine. If the wheels matched the RPM's needed just to keep an engine running, you'd be meeting your maker pretty quickly in that machine.

[@jjchmiel78]

Another "car" "race" "based on real story" movie that seems forgotten now is RUSH (2013). I consider it a great movie directed by Ron Howard starring Daniel Bruhl, Chris Hemsworth, and Olivia Wilde.

[@body_by_depuy]

Rush is a criminally overlooked film

[@dmscmightymo]

It‘s one of the best if not the best motorsports movie. I didn’t even know it is overlocked or forgotten, I watched it multiple times over the years.

[@goodshipkaraboudjan]

Bruce McLaren (founder of McLaren) who won was killed testing his own sports prototype years later, his co-driver Chris Amon survived his career. However Kens co-driver Denny Hulme was killed racing at Bathurst. The drivers of the third GT40 (a different privateer team) also survived their careers. The entry list for 1966 reads like a legends event. Brabham, Andretti, Rindt, Hill, Revson, Rodriguez etc. Many of them died racing.

[@NandR]

What really rocketed Shelby to car fame was the idea to put a big Ford engine in a small British AC Ace sports car, the Shelby Cobra. Then Ford had Shelby modify the Mustang, the Shelby GT350 Race car and road car. Later the GT500 as well. He later went to Chrysler to work with Lee Iacocca again. There he made the Shelby GLH. And soon he helped design the Dodge Viper, one of the most brutal and fastest road cars ever made. He later went back to work with Ford on the new 2005 GT500. He also made the Shelby Series 1 road car. He was a chicken farmer, chili lover, asshole, and true car guy.

[@Anomondaris]

I got to drive a GT500 that was sent to Shelby in Nevada and had the Super Snake package put on. That included the 5 point harness, roll cage and over 900hp. It was a beast! I also have driven 3 different GT40s. It’s good to be friends with a Ford dealer😂

[@ksoup0925]

I have a 2020 GT350R Heritage Edition. Technically it’s not a real Shelby as it’s manufactured and completed by Ford but she is my baby!! I love that car and wish Carroll had been around long enough to have him sign it!

[@williewilliams6571]

Christian Bale is great in this. One of his earliest films that I don't think I've ever seen a reaction to is "Empire of the Sun" (1987). His performance in THAT was incredible.

[@yrussq]

The third pedal is a clutch. It's a pedal in a manual/mechanical transmissions which allows to change the gear whenever driver needs to. Unlike the automatic transmission that has preprogrammed rpm/speed values where the controller uses the clutch and shifts to the particular gears without any driver involvement.

The movie Rush highlights the extremely dangerous and deadly nature of automotive racing during this time and does a great job and exploring the wilding differing personalities of the type of people who would climb into a race car less than a day after a colleague is brutally killed on track.

Another really good true race story in “The Worlds Fastest Indian”. Starring Anthony Hopkins, it’s the story of New Zealander Burt Monroe. He set a land speed record here in the US back in 1967 on a motorcycle from the 1920s that he built and modified in his garage all by himself. It’s a great, under appreciated movie and Hopkins really delivers at Burt.

[@neilcampbell9383]

Hi Mary. You had more chance of surviving as a Spitfire pilot in the Battle of Britain in 1940 than as a Formula 1 driver in the 1960’s. Jackie Stewart, famous Scottish/British World Champion decided to do something about when he came to up to his waste in fuel with spectators smoking around him. Safety was not taken into account with, for instance, some of the tracks being lined with telephone poles that were lethal if a driver went off the track. Stewart amongst others got the drivers organised, some races were boycotted, car safety become a consideration and things began to change. When I was a kid deaths were a regular occurrence but it is very unusual these days. Good choice & a great film. 👍🙂👍

A lifelong gearhead, race fan & addicted to cars since I was a kid, this film is one of the best on racing. A few liberties of course, Hollywood can’t just stick to a 100% real story but still a fantastic movie. So many great racing films out there so give us more! 😁 There are only a few 24 hour races & LeMans is the most well known. They are so difficult to run; for the machines have to run the entire time without a problem, drivers switch out but the race is stressful on the body. Toss in bad weather & you’re exhausted at the end. Here’s a couple suggestions Mary: “LeMans”, “Rush”, “Grand Prix” & “The 24 Hour War”…you’ll be hooked! 😎

AGREED

[@benn454]

Sadly, dozens upon dozens of racing drivers have died on track. Especially in the first decades of the 20th century. It wasn't until the 1970s and 1980s that fatality rates started coming down, thanks to advancing technology and efforts by drivers such as Jackie Stewart to make driver and spectator safety a high priority. There are still fatalities occasionally, but they are quite rare.

[@lawrencejones1517]

Rush is awesome, and like Ford vs Ferrari, is historical. And yes, quite a few drives have died racing. They are few and far between now because of the level of safety features in the vehicles and the tracks, but they do still happen. Oh, and doing 7000+ RPM in a GT40 would be more like 190 MPH, or over 306 KPH. And at the 1965 race, the GT40 was clocked at 218 MPH, or 351.6 KPH. On that car, you'd find that between 7000 and 8000 RPM.

[@TheShockninja]

Most drivers in F1 didn’t seriously think of their own safety, aside from Jackie Stewart in 1966, until the death of Jim Clark in ‘68 when he was killed in an F2 event. As good as Clark was, his death made drivers think “if he could die in a race car then anyone could as well.”

Mollie was actually a pretty good amateur racer, and not a bad mechanic. That scene where the actress playing her just brings a chair on the lawn and waits for their fistfight to end brought tears to my eyes. Racers understand racers. My own experience with the sport is as an amateur in the Sports Car Club of America..raced slow cars in the '90s, spent much of my time before & after that is as one of the officials you can see waving flags on the corners. American fans of this kind of motor racing know these stories, and we love them. So many films about our sport are absolutely clueless about what we actually * do *. This one's actually not bad! Hollywood stuff: Leo Beebe actually supported the program, he wasn't a bad guy. Shelby (won LM24 in '58 or '59, really did have to quit driving after his heart trouble was diagnosed) had already beaten Ferarri in a slower class with a version of his sports car in '64 and '65. Ford approached him with the dough to build a 'prototype' after Enzo insulted Henry after Ford tried to buy Ferrari. And yeah, Ken 'not winning' was true. Rule at Le Mans is whoever has covered the most mi/km is the winner. He was cheated by that promotional photo at the end of the race. Last bit of "Hollywood" was that at the time, it was very difficult to keep up with the race in the US. Found bits on shortwave radio, didn't see pics or video until a couple of weeks later. Jury's still out on whether Ken threw that wrench, though. There's older folks saying it really happened, but there's no evidence.

“Have any famous drivers died while racing?” Dale Earnhardt =[

Ken Miles remains the only man in history that (should have) won the Endurance Racing Triple Crown. That’s 1: 24hrs of Daytona 2: 12hrs Of Sebring 3: 24hrs of Le Mans, all in a single year. Ken Miles won all three races but due to the technicality at Le Mans, Bruce McLaren was awarded the win because he started 60meters behind Ken at the start, therefore he went further than Ken did when they crossed the line, even tho he was slightly behind Ken at the finish line. It’s one of racings sadder stories.

Leo Beebe wasn't the jerk in real life that was portrayed in this movie. He got along fine with Carroll Shelby and Ken Miles, and he didn't deliberately set Ken up to come in second at Le Mans. But the story needed an antagonist, and Enzo Ferrari was on the other side of an ocean, so Leo was it.

Watch the block buster movie "Grand Prix" (1966) starring James Garner, Yves Montand, Eva Marie Saint & Jessica Walter. This movie regarding F-1 racing was Directed by John Frankenheimer and utilized specially modified formula race cars as camera cars to get the feel of being in an actual F-1 car. They even got permission to have the camera car start the races at the back of the grid. A large number of current F-1 drivers at that time have cameos in the movie. The story line includes a couple of different romances. The photography is out of sight!

This is one of James Mangold’s best films ever made this along with Logan. I enjoyed the friendship between Carroll Shelby and Ken Miles. It was sad to see Ken die in the end but if it means anything he was the winner at Le Mans.

Amazing movie love the video Mary stay motivated dream big 1 mill on the way

[@Berg126]

My favourite racedriver died in my early teen years, watched it live on tv😢🥺 A.SENNA RIP. The movie Senna is amazing, its documentary style.

[@MasonOfLife]

I know nothing about cars but I love this movie so much

[@mannygee005]

Thanks for reacting to this Mary and trying it out. Older cars when you drive them really fast they start to vibrate. There is a resonant frequency where a car will run pretty smoothly but when you drive it faster beyond that it will start to shake more and more and people get scared so they don't drive faster than that. Newer cars are much smoother and you can drive much faster without the car shaking apart. I once drove around 178 kph which is pretty fast for me. Luckily the road was very smooth in that area and the car did very well. The air felt different at that speed. Depending on the car and how air flows around it, sometimes the car will become light and you feel this in the steering where it doesn't have as much feedback anymore, it feels like you're floating. This is a good reason to slow down.

When Shelby said they would change tires in the rain, he was referring to to tread. On dry pavement, tires without a tread pattern get a better grip. But when it rains, they get super slippery. That's why passenger cars have tire tread. The water goes into the tread so some of the tire contacts the road. When it rains, pit crews put on "rain tires" which means they have tread. Otherwise, they have tires with no tread.

I love their friendly fight scene. So hilarious and they really could have hurt the other if they wanted to, but both restrained themselves

[@chrisbrass8930]

This is one of my favorite movies and one I've lost count of how many times I've watched and one that i frequently suggest to couples ro watch together for date nights

[@johnathanHannaford]

Dale Earnhardt died protecting his son Dale Jr and Michael waldrip

[@Seraph180]

To answer your question about drivers who died in car races, one that comes to mind is Jim Clark, one of the best racing drivers who ever sat behind a wheel. more wins and podiums than any driver in his time. He died at 32 in Hockenheim, Germany when he lost control of his car at 170 mph.

[@Joeprijsman]

Also Ayrton Senna, Gilles Villeneuve and Jochen Rindt. Rindt even won his only WDC Posthumously as he crashed fatally during the season but had enough of a points gap to win the championship anyway. Motorsport really has a history of safety rules being written in blood unfortunately

[@bwsinfonia13]

Dale Earnhardt.

The Ford history has had a lot of ups and downs and will remain one of the few Automakers to have had numerous talent in the vast teams worldwide. From drivers to designers, cars to factories, Ford’s history is fascinating when you start digging it up

[@christophersimmons8709]

Another amazing reaction Mary ❤❤😁😁.

[@Regionzen]

Great reaction Mary! I enjoyed you going outside of your comfort zone for this one. I'm sure it has been mentioned a zillion times already in these comments, but the 2013 film "Rush" is another really great film based on a true story of the early racing days of Formula 1. It stars Chris Hemsworth and Olivia Wilde and I'm sure you would enjoy it quite a bit. I think it is better than this one, and this one is really good. 😄

[@nickschnider9191]

I love this movie. I knew the main points of the story already but they way they made it was great

[@James_Loveless]

Please Consider World's Fastest Indian it is another based on a True Story film

[@neilcampbell9383]

Great shout 👍🙂👍

[@houseking9211]

In case you were wondering, specifically at the 24 hours of le mans the last time anyone lost their life was in 2013 and it was Allan Simonsen. It's generally accepted that he ended up hitting a barrier that was against a tree, and therefore had no give. He was reported as concious when he was removed from the car, but was presented dead at an onsite medical centre.

[@twoheart7813]

Great reaction Mary, this movie is always on my fave list.

[@SidewaysEightSix]

RUSH is another true racing story from the late 60’s early 70’s and is amazing, even if you don’t like cars.

[@gpaje]

In the UK, Ford is seen as a "home" brand by many, as Ford has been in Europe (especially the UK) for so long, with many cars built and designed to suit their tastes. The Ford GT40 started off as the Lola MK6 and was uncompetitive. It was flown to California for Shelby and Miles to work on, then raced in US based endurance to prepare for Le Mans.

[@bigsarge8795]

Ken Miles was actually thrown from the car in the accident. The car was traveling about 200 mph ( 320 kph ) and crashed. While the cause of the crash was never fully known, IMDB has a note that the rear axle failed

[@Apollo890]

Some Interesting facts about Ken Miles: He did his first race age 11 on a 350 cc Triumph bike. He first met Mollie when he was 15 after meeting her he turn to a friend and said "I'm going to marry that girl". He also built his first car at age 15, an Austin 7 and Mollie painted it British racing Green. He served in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers during WW2 reaching the rank of Staff Sergeant. He came ashore on D-day at sword beach and fixed an abandoned tank whilst being shot at, he then climbed into the drivers seat and drove it back to its regiment. Also he was one of the first British soldiers to reach Bergen Belson concentration camp but never spoke about the experience.The He loved American engines and gained a lot of experience working on them during the war. Which is why he relocated to the state's to be a mechanic. Although a talented driver He always say himself as more of a mechanic. He really was incredibly sarcastic and had no tact which infuriated almost everyone except Carol Shelby who loved his straight talking manner.

[@frankmontes9139]

That GT40 top speed is 212 miles per hour equaling 341 KmPH . The RPMs indicate at what capacity the engine is working at. At 7k RPMs it’s pushing its limits , then the horse power kicks in indicating the force which is more relative to the speed than RPMs. Loved your review, glad you enjoyed this film

[@danholmesfilm]

Great reaction :)

[@TerryYelmene]

Thank you Mary! You really gave FvF a very touching reaction.

[@imarxb]

Haven't been here for a while, and Mary is looking even more 🔥 than I remember. 😍

[@cokecan6169]

I had the pleasure of watching this in a theatre with 2 friends. It was nuts. Edge of my seat and screaming during the triumphs.

[@Ravenbones]

I beg of you to watch "The World's Fastest Indian", based on a true story and one of Anthony Hopkin's best films.

[@jhold7553]

I was so pleasantly surprised at how great this movie is

[@chuckh4553]

3 pedals - Clutch (disconnects the engine from the transmission allowing you to shift. Automatics weren't always a standard piece. Especially in motor sports) Brake and Accelerator

[@vukvuk92]

One of the hardest heart-wrenching movies is The Shack. I suggest that you look at it, it cleanses the soul of every person and goes deep into the heart and stays there Mary. Your reactions to movies are so clean and honest, even someone who doesn't watch a lot of movies would watch the movie after your reaction, which is wonderful. 😭💔

[@shehanp66]

31:55 now i ain't trolling but her wondering why there are 3 pedals got me dying

[@MikeWood]

There has to be a race track in Australia somewhere that you can go for a ride in a race car of some sort. You might like it. :) I really like your outro and summary of it. That makes your reactions stand out. :)
