It would be funny if he was supposed to tie the other end to something before he threw the rope down. The prisoners see the rope coming down with a glimmer of hope but then the other end comes with it and they all start chanting FUCK YOU BRUCE!! 😂 😂
In the first two attempts,Bruce Wayne was so focused on escaping out of the pit that he didn't even stop a second to ask what the fellow prisoners were chanting and what it meant.Only in the last attempt,when he had somewhat came to terms with his mortality,it is at this moment that he gave attention to something that was not his immediate concern.It's a subtle yet beautiful touch.
""There is a prison in a more ancient part of the world, a pit where men are thrown to suffer and die, but sometimes a man rises from the darkness. Sometimes, the pit sends something back." Love how this quote ended up applying to Bruce.
optimusbee214 Well, Bane did NOT rise from the darkness - neither physically (he was eventually rescued from the pit, but didn't rise himself), nor psychologically (obviously). Bruce did both... the latter symbolized especially by the ending - he was finally able to free himself of his pain and anger, move on, and start living. Bane didn't, and it destroyed him.
Kind of reminds me of escaping an addiction, you are stuck in a prison, relapsing again and again, slipping, but you keep on trying, and there are those who try and fail and accept the failure, but there's you, trying and trying, like Bruce in the scene, and you desperately wanna seek the light. Your will becomes your power and then one day you make the jump, and you are out. You become sober.
Relapse is a part of the recovery process. That's not an excuse for relapsing, but a reminder that the vast majority of us will fall again before we are able to rise above the addiction. And even then, it's a continuous process where even if we've been sober for a long time, all it takes is one moment of weakness to spiral back down. Fall down 7 times. Get up 8.
This is my favorite scene of the whole movie. It shows, that batman has one superpower. He has an incredible willpower and he never gives up no matter what.
*As the one who was born DEAD & resurrected myself back to life & as the one who was taken or caught-up two times into the 3rd Heaven to be praised & worshipped by all within the Heavens I say, to defeat DEATH he or she must step into the Abyss & DIE. As it is written down within the Hebrew Yisraelite scriptures my 3rd patriarch Jacob (i.e. Yaiqab) fought God all night & won to be renamed Yisrael = God Prevails.*
I remember seeing this in the theater in 2012 - when Bruce made it out of the pit, the audience (a full house on opening weekend) went absolutely fucking bananas - epic.
I like how the 4:00 moment- the bats flying out would serve as a scare and distraction for other people, but for bruce it only reminded him of who he is and so that actually helped him....good job Nolan:)
I personally don't think the bats were actually there. Only Bruce saw them. Bruce Wayne is afraid of bats, the blind guy said that if he made the climb without the rope fear will find him again. When he started to feel fear, the bats appeared.
The bats were there, because Batman was there, the bats appeared synergistically through the karmic energy that surrounded Bruce. They were there for Bruce, following him. and he was there because they were there..er...yeah.
"You do not fear death--you think this makes you strong. It makes you weak. How can you move as fast as possible, fight longer than possible--without the most powerful impulse of the spirit: the fear of death." My favorite scene of this whole movie. "Then make the climb, as the child did. Without the rope and fear will find you again."
They made it very philosophical, but the real solution was always simple. Climbing and, probably, take out the rope at that part, because the rope is the thing that pulls you back down in that part. XD
@@jugandoalogeek The thing that got him make the jump was indeed fear, which product is pure adrenaline that boosts the body to the maximum in order to survive.It's an evolutionary trait.
Why did you skip the most important line? "I do fear death. I fear dying here while my city burns". The fact that his fear of death comes from his worry about the wellbeing of others, rather than his own, is what makes him the Batman.
This moved me to tears. I used to watch this movie all the time when I was younger as I’ve grown older I haven’t seen it in years. This was always my favorite scene. Since my days of youth watching the DK trilogy in my basement, I’ve struggled with severe depression and anxiety, there were points where I wanted to give up, and when it looked like it couldn’t get better. But now for the first time things are looking like they may change for the better and I’m ready for me to personally rise out of the pit in my life.
Yeah, I don’t really get the hate on the voice either. Like, he has to change his voice to keep his identity a secret, and it makes the most sense to sound that way, he’s not gonna go super high pitched or add some weird accent.
I know your comment was written before Batfleck, but let me just make an update: Christian Bale makes a great Bruce Wayne, but Ben Affleck made a great Batman. At least in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice".
When bruce says at the beginning “ I’m not meant to die in here “ with the constant taxing excercise Hes pushing his body through, I apply “ I’m not meant to die like this” to combat my current depressive state. This scene and attitude has helped me far better than any pills , books , therapy sessions
This scene means so much to me. Back in High School I was a wrestler and had wrestled for pretty much all my life and going into my senior year I got into an accident that broke my femur and I was unable to walk and finish out my senior year and that was the year college teams were getting an interest in me. But all that went away by one freak accident. I thought I wasn’t going to walk again and was in a pretty rough spot mentally and was suffering from depression and felt that my life was falling apart. Right around the time this movie came out I went to see it with a friend of mine and after seeing Bruce go through a similar journey I did of being injured physically and mentally and overcoming it, it inspired me to never lose hope and to keep fighting. Believe it or not this scene helped me through a dark time in my life and after months of enduring physical therapy I was making significant progress of building back my muscle that I lost and not long after I was able to walk again. The doctors were so amazed at how well I recovered even though they told me that it would be unlikely that I could walk again. Even though I couldn’t wrestle my senior year I still learned a lot form my experience. I owe a lot to this movie and especially this scene. This scene is one of the big reasons why Batman is my favorite comic character because he inspires us to never give up and be the best version of ourselves. Sorry for the long rant but just wanted to express my love for this movie and this scene. Stay blessed everyone and never give up…
I’m going through the same thing right now. Tons of physical therapy and I looked up this clip to gain motivation of how much I’m climbing out of the pit
No, it means let the fear make you stronger. He needed to fear falling, and actually falling to his death. So he go without the rope. Like the child did.
Fear doesn't improve your climbing skills, rather it makes your hand swaety which is very bad. And you do more mistakes, since you aren't that concentrated. Fear is helpfull for feeling and running, that doesn't apply to climbing.
me too a bad day, one out of many and for sure not the last one......accept fear as a friend as a companion , feel it but don't reject it , own it , as will to live.
I cried when I saw this scene in theaters. The chant always echoes in my head when life hits me and I fall. Lets rise, fellas. Stay safe and healthy, peace and love for us all!
Correct classic, the onstar commercials, Joel Schumacher films, video games r toy commercials compared to Christopher Nolan's batman, he's a genius professor , watchful writer , a dark director
No matter how the Batman v Superman moive with Ben Affleck turns out, Christopher Nolan finally gave batman the movies he deserved. The Dark Knight trilogy cannot be topped.
I like the old guy's reaction, when he looks down and has a sudden realisation. He doesn't say it, but he knows that Bruce just might be able to beat Bane and save Gotham.
I think it's something else - he's thinking of himself, old, decrepit and never getting out of that pit, because he never exposed himself to the fear of death. He didn't believe any man could make it out of that pit, and so he settled, the way a lot of us do in life. While he was rooting for bruce, he also had to come to terms with his own failure once bruce actually made it.
After a decade of pain...all kinds... and false starts, plans falling apart... I'm ready to reclaim my life, climbing out of my own pit... without a rope....and I will succeed this time. This scene helped me. I will make the climb!
*Listen, I've been in prisons where naturally the males are separated from the females, therefore analytically I assume the female child decided to make the climb & to make the jump without the rope (e.g. safety net), because logically all of the other prisoners will eventually attack & kill Bane to get her, therefore whether she stayed in the prison pit, she is facing DEATH, or if she fell down without the rope, she is facing DEATH & she wisely decided whether she failed, or succeeded, she will give the opportunity to obtain freedom & safety all she got...*

villa girish nice to see a reply. I’m far better than I was 7 months ago. The depression which gripped my whole life is not completely gone away but I have managed to fight and manage it a lot better. Now I still make my own choices regardless of x y z. I don’t let fear dictate my decisions anymore. I’m more brave and confident in my own skin. It will be a lifelong battle, I’m 25 and look forward to rising out of the pit completely one day
Walker11 the only pit you need to climb out is the one the mind throws at you. I can suggest you reading the book 📖 ”The Joy of Living dangerously ”, by Osho
This scene is amazing. Despite the fact that we already know Bruce will make it (there's still about 45mins left in the movie after all), Nolan managed to create the fear, anticipation, excitement all at once. It's a good thing he didn't do the dramatic slow-mo (which is usually the norm in such climactic moments). Could have taken some of the charm. This is in no small part due to Bale's acting. The fear on his face seems real. You could actually feel it in your heart and bones. So rightly said. FEAR is one of the main driver of human actions and emotions. I show my true self when I'm afraid. My resilience, my courage, my ability to get back up whenever I fall - it's all driven in face of fear. I love this scene. Can't thank Nolan enough for this trilogy.
Prisoners: "Fish fish pasta, fish fish pasta, fish fish pasta" Bruce: "What does it mean?" Healer: *"Rice"* Edit: People just wish me death now, lol...

Batman inspires me to abandon my emotional ropes that means a false security in my life. Courage does not mean a fearless person. It means a person who is brave enough to go on through pain facing his/her fears. Thank you Christian Bale, thank you Chirstopher Nolan. You guys inspires me so much to continue and find my life meaning. With tears in my eyes and sincerely, A kid who wants to succeed in life.
@@jamarinflanigan 9 years ago I was totally hopeless and broken, now I thanks to everything I passed through. In the darkest moments you have to keep your fire burning.
I'm a grown man, but even so - the bit where the bats fly out and he stands up (truly becoming Batman again) was the most exciting moment I've ever experienced in a cinema.
"This pit is the worst hell on Earth." **Has cable, a home gym, serves meals that promote rapid weight loss, and cures debilitating spinal cord injuries all for free. I've stayed in motels that were worse.
The pit is actually a metaphorical representation of the Lazarus pit described in the Batman comics. It is known for having supernatural healing powers.
I just love the symbolism of this moment. It’s just every piece of philosophical dialogue and subplot from the other films coming full circle. Fear - the first film was all about that idea of conquering fear and the Scarecrow. Now he must find the Fear again. “Why do we fall? So we can pick ourselves up.” The pit symbolises and is reminiscent of the Well that he fell through as a child. The Bats flying around him like he was being baptised again to be worthy of being BATMan. The rising or emerging from the Lazarus Pit and being physically and spiritually healed and Reborn/Rebirth as opposed to the comic book idea of a literal healing & rebirth through the Lazarus liquid. The Dark Knight “Rising” out of the depths of his fall from grace & perceived failure (as per TDK in the eyes of Gotham), his fall into self pity & exile. These films are so well written in terms of dialogue, narrative, metaphorical and philosophical subtext.
The Bat isn't his fear, the Bat is associated with his fear that he developed falling down the well where Bats just so happened to be. The fear of falling and being unable to get back up which is the theme that basically summed up this film... hence "The Dark Knight Rises"... he fell, yet he still persevered to get back up.
Nah... he's called the Batman because it sounds better than the 'Hole 'man, Bruce faces all his fears behind the theme of not being able to rise above obstacle, whether the well, pit, himself and Bane... the bat is what ties it all together. This was proven at the end of "the dark knight rises" when he was "afraid being stuck in here" (Bruce's quote in his conversation with the doctor about fear)... when he confronted the situation of making the jump, afraid of not making it, being trapped down in that pit and dying there... the bats showed up because of their association and his reminder of that fear of hopelessness... which was the theme of the entire pit chapter. Hopelessness was also the theme in his first duel with Bane as well as the 'Well' when he was a kid, both obstacles that couldn't be overcome by him... just as the well and the pit were obstacles that created the same hopelessness, could not be overcome. The movie is about exactly that, the fear of not being able to rise above seemingly impossible obstacles. Hence the obvious title, The Dark Knight Rises.
Oh yeah... never once in all the movies did Bruce mention himself that he was afraid of bats... he always talked about the fear of not being to overcome something in general, which was represented in almost endless situations.
***** Agreed, but I think you're both right, initially he used the name since he was afraid of bats, but now the fear is not the fear of bats but the fear of him stuck in the hole, while his people die without him being able to help them.

This scene is a masterpiece. Embodied everything about Bruce Wayne; never give up, never let your emotions took best of you and never fear anything. This is why he's the brave and the bold.
This is my favorite movie scene of all time. The prison sometimes is our own mind. The fear of not knowing if you're going to make it keeps you locked in that prison until you take a leap of faith. The inmates chanting rise is our self conscious digging deep and getting riled up to make the leap. When we preserver we feel ultimate victory and become stronger then we were before. Sometimes we need to be completely broken in order to be rebuilt even better. This scene is powerful metaphor for life and will stick with me forever.
When I saw this in theaters and he made that jump, I almost jumped outta my seat and cheered him on. For a scene from a movie to evoke that kind of response from me, like I'm watching a running back for my favorite team score a game winning touchdown, is a pretty awesome scene.
Did you know? This scene was shot in mehrangarh fort in jodhpur, india. I visited the well and although it is closed off you can still see the vast horizons that Batman saw!!
Later that week in the news there: “A series of grisly murders and rapes has spread across the city, as numerous dangerous criminals were somehow able to climb out of the maximum security prison on a rope.”
@@VicSellsPeace in the US. In some countries inmates are actually treated as humans, not as slaves. Some countrys make prisons about rehabilitation and reintegration and not about making a profit. Norway for example has a 4/5 rehabilitation rate.
3:10 "ah, supplies for your journey, that's wonderful" - something really cracks me up about that line and they way the doctor says it and Chris Bale's smile in response. Can't put my finger on it.

I love the physician's face (and eyes) after what happened, he was probably wondering "who on earth is this man?" omg this and the bat throwing the rope at the end really makes me cry my eyes out
I wasn't able to crack my final medical license exam with on going job which i had to take for financial issues. It took 6 years 12 attempts for me to crack several times i missed it by 2-5 marks.. and when i passed my exams i was into 1st 50 students As we see in the movie Bruce gets out of pit without rope with fear of dying inside pit.. i also left my job and prepared for exam with fear of dying without passing medical licenses exam I can totally relate my failures and success with this scene. Watching this scenes every time makes my teary also feel the excitement and energy.
As an EMT, I have definitely been scared on certain calls. A lot of my mentors and senior paramedics and EMTs have always told me that a little bit of fear is a good thing. We must have a healthy respect for the situation. I can tell you that fear has pushed me through more than a few things. I might be afraid on the scene but I cannot show it, but it also drives me to get going and to know that if I don’t do my job somebody could die. So we work harder. Fear makes us take it seriously.
As a student who’s going through his fire and emt schooling right now, your comment is super helpful. I’ll have to remember this when I’m on those stressful calls. Thank you, and thank you for your service.
@@voss456 hey, I'm super excited for you. Keep working hard and learn and study as much as you can. Write stuff down and practice it. That's exciting that you're going to start your career in EMS. Remember integrity and ethics is what we need to have with us at all times. Remember that we can truly make a difference in our patients life.
@@vizzous 😂😂 yes ..actually ...they combined two locations for this scene. One is fort and the inside of pit is actiually a stepwell located few km from fort.
The man that helps Bruce recover tells him that Bane started using the pit as his personal prison(after he was kicked out of the League of Shadows, of course), so perhaps they're all people who had the misfortune of crossing paths with Bane.
Hans Zimmer's score for the whole trilogy is fantastic, but the music for this scene is especially so. The way the orchestra builds up as Bruce gathers himself to make that final jump (the chanting adds so much to it) and then he leaps...and the Dark Knight theme hits HARD as Bruce sticks the landing. So damn good.
This movie is definitely Christian Bale's best performance as Bruce Wayne/Batman. Bale is the definitive Batman/Bruce Wayne and Ben Affleck has a lot to live up to. I do think that Affleck will do a good job though.
Batman was in the movie, u just have to understand the story, Gotham was peace crime free for 8 years after batman vanished into the night @ the end of the dark knight and bane broke his back & threw him in the pit, that's why u see more bruce wayne .Its still a spectacular film, even tim Burton's first film had more bruce wayne then batman, Nolan's 3 films r incredible, he's the first director/writer who did batman from start to finish & he deserves an oscar.
I love that Bruce threw the rope down for the others to make their escape as well. We never hear any other dialogue from the other prisoners besides the old man and the blind man, but every single time Bruce or anyone else attempts the climb, they all gather around, chanting for their “rise”, never giving up on one another, and Bruce didn’t even think twice before freeing them from their persecutions and from their pits. A truly heroic moment.
So the rope was what was actually holding him back all these times from succeeding, while he kept it always as a safety net after failing each time. Such a subtle touch of teaching a valuable lesson.... I love you, Christopher nolan.
No one will pull Bruce from the bottom. His dad used to do pull him and push his mind under the deep consciousness. Only Bruce will drag himself from the bottom. I love this scene.
I never what lenguaje is that..Deshi,Deshi basara basara...until now,thx for subtitles. This for me is the best scene because it's true,fear the dead make our humans make to do wonderful things,a woman break a door...men make increíble power to rise a vehicle to save people.
This scene is so deep at many levels: 1. Climb without the rope:The rope is symbolic of society , peer pressure(notice how people were yelling and cheering for Bruce Wayne).Society gives you a rope to climb out of your darkness but all it does it pull you back safely to the abyss, it just gives you a false hope like how Bruce never dies or gets severly injured, but he still remains in the prison. To be free you have to untie the rope society gave you. 2. The kid climbed without the rope: When we were child we didn't have any ropes attached to us,we did not according to what society said but according to our hearts. To experience freedom we must be like the child without any ropes attached to us and then climb our way out. 3 .Fear: We attach fear around us like how Bruce attached rope around his waist. This rope was given to us by society (The rope was first given to Bruce by a prisoner). 4. Illusion of the rope :Initially everyone thinks that the rope can set them free,as its hanging above and easy to take. Life is like that,the rope set by society is the path of least resistance but yet in never guarantees freedom ,its just an ILLUSION OF FREEDOM Hands down to Nolan(and the screenwriter)for communicating this in the most subtle way possible. It just shoked my mind.
In the end, if you look closely. He was afraid of death. He acknowledged his own hypocrisy. He said he was not afraid of death, yet he climbed with a tether. In the end he realized his mistake, the rope weighting him down if not pulling him back. But it was more of a mental victory. He in the end finally did no longer fear death, which makes him jump without the tether. Which forced him to give it his all to reach the other side as it was do or die. And it was not death he was fearful of, he was fearful of not making it to gotham in time. If he would have died there, his fear would become real. What effectively happened was Bruce no longer was the man saying who he said he was, he finally became the man he always said he was.
The collective human spirit that this scene embodies is mind-blowing. The prisoners chant even though they are not the ones climbing; Bruce's success or failure at this point would not directly affect them in any way. They could not possibly know if Bruce would throw back a rope or help in any way if he got out. Their chanting has nothing to do with themselves and their individual redemptions. Doing so they rise in spirit with Bruce, they join him in the sun. Cinema at its most majestic.
I love how he threw down the rope at the end so the others could climb out too
woah that really suprised me didnt it i didnt expec that all A T
Oh, that's why he did that? Did they climb out as well?

Kind of reminds me of escaping an addiction, you are stuck in a prison, relapsing again and again, slipping, but you keep on trying, and there are those who try and fail and accept the failure, but there's you, trying and trying, like Bruce in the scene, and you desperately wanna seek the light. Your will becomes your power and then one day you make the jump, and you are out. You become sober.
Powerful.
Relapse is a part of the recovery process. That's not an excuse for relapsing, but a reminder that the vast majority of us will fall again before we are able to rise above the addiction. And even then, it's a continuous process where even if we've been sober for a long time, all it takes is one moment of weakness to spiral back down.
Fall down 7 times. Get up 8.

This moved me to tears. I used to watch this movie all the time when I was younger as I’ve grown older I haven’t seen it in years. This was always my favorite scene. Since my days of youth watching the DK trilogy in my basement, I’ve struggled with severe depression and anxiety, there were points where I wanted to give up, and when it looked like it couldn’t get better. But now for the first time things are looking like they may change for the better and I’m ready for me to personally rise out of the pit in my life.

IDK what anyone says about Christian Bale, he is the best Batman ever
Yeah, I don’t really get the hate on the voice either. Like, he has to change his voice to keep his identity a secret, and it makes the most sense to sound that way, he’s not gonna go super high pitched or add some weird accent.
And the best Bateman too
Nolan and Zimmer probably play a role in why you feel this way too. Just sayin.
I like Affleck more
I know your comment was written before Batfleck, but let me just make an update:
Christian Bale makes a great Bruce Wayne, but Ben Affleck made a great Batman. At least in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice".
this scene is absolutely metaphorical and Therapeutical.. every one of us should use the energy that fear can release
Exactly
When bruce says at the beginning “ I’m not meant to die in here “ with the constant taxing excercise Hes pushing his body through, I apply “ I’m not meant to die like this” to combat my current depressive state. This scene and attitude has helped me far better than any pills , books , therapy sessions

This scene means so much to me. Back in High School I was a wrestler and had wrestled for pretty much all my life and going into my senior year I got into an accident that broke my femur and I was unable to walk and finish out my senior year and that was the year college teams were getting an interest in me. But all that went away by one freak accident. I thought I wasn’t going to walk again and was in a pretty rough spot mentally and was suffering from depression and felt that my life was falling apart.
Right around the time this movie came out I went to see it with a friend of mine and after seeing Bruce go through a similar journey I did of being injured physically and mentally and overcoming it, it inspired me to never lose hope and to keep fighting. Believe it or not this scene helped me through a dark time in my life and after months of enduring physical therapy I was making significant progress of building back my muscle that I lost and not long after I was able to walk again. The doctors were so amazed at how well I recovered even though they told me that it would be unlikely that I could walk again. Even though I couldn’t wrestle my senior year I still learned a lot form my experience. I owe a lot to this movie and especially this scene. This scene is one of the big reasons why Batman is my favorite comic character because he inspires us to never give up and be the best version of ourselves. Sorry for the long rant but just wanted to express my love for this movie and this scene. Stay blessed everyone and never give up…
in the spirit of the bat,mate
I’m going through the same thing right now. Tons of physical therapy and I looked up this clip to gain motivation of how much I’m climbing out of the pit
2:40 "Make the climb... as the child did... without the rope !"
it's the only way. having a plan B means that there is doubt in plan A.
It means let go of all yours fears.
+Ferruccio Guicciardi but the blind guy says fear must be present as the most powerful impulse
No, it means let the fear make you stronger. He needed to fear falling, and actually falling to his death. So he go without the rope. Like the child did.
Fear doesn't improve your climbing skills, rather it makes your hand swaety which is very bad.
And you do more mistakes, since you aren't that concentrated. Fear is helpfull for feeling and
running, that doesn't apply to climbing.
It took me far longer than I would like to admit, to realise that this is a metaphorical Lazarus Pit.

I like the old guy's reaction, when he looks down and has a sudden realisation. He doesn't say it, but he knows that Bruce just might be able to beat Bane and save Gotham.
I think it's something else - he's thinking of himself, old, decrepit and never getting out of that pit, because he never exposed himself to the fear of death. He didn't believe any man could make it out of that pit, and so he settled, the way a lot of us do in life. While he was rooting for bruce, he also had to come to terms with his own failure once bruce actually made it.

*Listen, I've been in prisons where naturally the males are separated from the females, therefore analytically I assume the female child decided to make the climb & to make the jump without the rope (e.g. safety net), because logically all of the other prisoners will eventually attack & kill Bane to get her, therefore whether she stayed in the prison pit, she is facing DEATH, or if she fell down without the rope, she is facing DEATH & she wisely decided whether she failed, or succeeded, she will give the opportunity to obtain freedom & safety all she got...*

The depression which gripped my whole life is not completely gone away but I have managed to fight and manage it a lot better. Now I still make my own choices regardless of x y z. I don’t let fear dictate my decisions anymore. I’m more brave and confident in my own skin. It will be a lifelong battle, I’m 25 and look forward to rising out of the pit completely one day

This movie helped me during my darkest days in life. Thank you.
This scene is amazing. Despite the fact that we already know Bruce will make it (there's still about 45mins left in the movie after all), Nolan managed to create the fear, anticipation, excitement all at once. It's a good thing he didn't do the dramatic slow-mo (which is usually the norm in such climactic moments). Could have taken some of the charm.
This is in no small part due to Bale's acting. The fear on his face seems real. You could actually feel it in your heart and bones. So rightly said.
FEAR is one of the main driver of human actions and emotions. I show my true self when I'm afraid. My resilience, my courage, my ability to get back up whenever I fall - it's all driven in face of fear.
I love this scene. Can't thank Nolan enough for this trilogy.
I love how Nolan doesn’t rely on CGI smoke and mirrors

Very inspiring scene. I also see it as a metaphor for humanity rising from the pit of its egotism and darkness.
*As the one who was born DEAD & resurrected myself back to life & as the one who was taken or caught-up two times into the 3rd Heaven to be praised & worshipped by all within the Heavens I say, to defeat DEATH he or she must step into the Abyss & DIE.

The old man's reaction at 4:29 gets me every time. At that moment he knew his suffering was over.
The most epic scene worth watching unlimited times,, the cast, dialogs, background score,...one of a kind....masterpiece..
Batman inspires me to abandon my emotional ropes that means a false security in my life. Courage does not mean a fearless person.
It means a person who is brave enough to go on through pain facing his/her fears.

Christian Bale's Batman and Tobey Maguire's Spiderman really inspires me
I'm a grown man, but even so - the bit where the bats fly out and he stands up (truly becoming Batman again) was the most exciting moment I've ever experienced in a cinema.
"This pit is the worst hell on Earth." **Has cable, a home gym, serves meals that promote rapid weight loss, and cures debilitating spinal cord injuries all for free. I've stayed in motels that were worse.
The pit is actually a metaphorical representation of the Lazarus pit described in the Batman comics. It is known for having supernatural healing powers.
I just love the symbolism of this moment. It’s just every piece of philosophical dialogue and subplot from the other films coming full circle.
Fear - the first film was all about that idea of conquering fear and the Scarecrow.
Now he must find the Fear again.
“Why do we fall? So we can pick ourselves up.”
The pit symbolises and is reminiscent of the Well that he fell through as a child.
The Bats flying around him like he was being baptised again to be worthy of being BATMan.
The rising or emerging from the Lazarus Pit and being physically and spiritually healed and Reborn/Rebirth as opposed to the comic book idea of a literal healing & rebirth through the Lazarus liquid.
The Dark Knight “Rising” out of the depths of his fall from grace & perceived failure (as per TDK in the eyes of Gotham), his fall into self pity & exile.
These films are so well written in terms of dialogue, narrative, metaphorical and philosophical subtext.
The most amazing movie scene ever created!
I've seen better
Not even close
Shrek 2 Holding Out For a Hero scene takes that honour
Best ever
@@georgewallace8286 nope
Bat is his fear ... "Fear will find you again."
The Bat isn't his fear, the Bat is associated with his fear that he developed falling down the well where Bats just so happened to be. The fear of falling and being unable to get back up which is the theme that basically summed up this film... hence "The Dark Knight Rises"... he fell, yet he still persevered to get back up.
+monktonsocks bats are his fear. Bruce chose to become the 'Bat'man because he feared bats. He did it to conquer his worst fear.
Nah... he's called the Batman because it sounds better than the 'Hole 'man, Bruce faces all his fears behind the theme of not being able to rise above obstacle, whether the well, pit, himself and Bane... the bat is what ties it all together. This was proven at the end of "the dark knight rises" when he was "afraid being stuck in here" (Bruce's quote in his conversation with the doctor about fear)... when he confronted the situation of making the jump, afraid of not making it, being trapped down in that pit and dying there... the bats showed up because of their association and his reminder of that fear of hopelessness... which was the theme of the entire pit chapter. Hopelessness was also the theme in his first duel with Bane as well as the 'Well' when he was a kid, both obstacles that couldn't be overcome by him... just as the well and the pit were obstacles that created the same hopelessness, could not be overcome. The movie is about exactly that, the fear of not being able to rise above seemingly impossible obstacles. Hence the obvious title, The Dark Knight Rises.
Oh yeah... never once in all the movies did Bruce mention himself that he was afraid of bats... he always talked about the fear of not being to overcome something in general, which was represented in almost endless situations.
*****
Agreed, but I think you're both right, initially he used the name since he was afraid of bats, but now the fear is not the fear of bats but the fear of him stuck in the hole, while his people die without him being able to help them.
Extremely powerful and inspirational scene; thanks for posting

This scene is a masterpiece. Embodied everything about Bruce Wayne; never give up, never let your emotions took best of you and never fear anything. This is why he's the brave and the bold.
This is my favorite movie scene of all time. The prison sometimes is our own mind. The fear of not knowing if you're going to make it keeps you locked in that prison until you take a leap of faith. The inmates chanting rise is our self conscious digging deep and getting riled up to make the leap. When we preserver we feel ultimate victory and become stronger then we were before. Sometimes we need to be completely broken in order to be rebuilt even better. This scene is powerful metaphor for life and will stick with me forever.
When I saw this in theaters and he made that jump, I almost jumped outta my seat and cheered him on. For a scene from a movie to evoke that kind of response from me, like I'm watching a running back for my favorite team score a game winning touchdown, is a pretty awesome scene.
Did you know? This scene was shot in mehrangarh fort in jodhpur, india. I visited the well and although it is closed off you can still see the vast horizons that Batman saw!!
Later that week in the news there: “A series of grisly murders and rapes has spread across the city, as numerous dangerous criminals were somehow able to climb out of the maximum security prison on a rope.”
At that point, they must have repented. It's the 'hell on earth'.

I love the physician's face (and eyes) after what happened, he was probably wondering "who on earth is this man?" omg this and the bat throwing the rope at the end really makes me cry my eyes out
I wasn't able to crack my final medical license exam with on going job which i had to take for financial issues. It took 6 years 12 attempts for me to crack several times i missed it by 2-5 marks.. and when i passed my exams i was into 1st 50 students
As we see in the movie Bruce gets out of pit without rope with fear of dying inside pit.. i also left my job and prepared for exam with fear of dying without passing medical licenses exam
I can totally relate my failures and success with this scene.
Watching this scenes every time makes my teary also feel the excitement and energy.
This is not just a masterful scene in history of superhero movies. It's one of the best scenes I've ever seen in ANY movie.
Thanks for uploading a perfectly edited version
As an EMT, I have definitely been scared on certain calls. A lot of my mentors and senior paramedics and EMTs have always told me that a little bit of fear is a good thing. We must have a healthy respect for the situation. I can tell you that fear has pushed me through more than a few things. I might be afraid on the scene but I cannot show it, but it also drives me to get going and to know that if I don’t do my job somebody could die. So we work harder. Fear makes us take it seriously.

One of the most memorable scenes in cinema history.
One of the most significant scenes to be ever made in movie history.
I think that's a stretch
The man that helps Bruce recover tells him that Bane started using the pit as his personal prison(after he was kicked out of the League of Shadows, of course), so perhaps they're all people who had the misfortune of crossing paths with Bane.
I'm was watching this scene in theatre, when he took the jump.... the place went fucking Crazy. GoodGrief!!!
I loved the Batman Begins trilogy. Especially this one. This scene spoke to me. Even in your deepest pit... you can rise.
It’s known as the Dark Knight Trilogy
@@nickcorleone8709 okay sherlock
Hans Zimmer's score for the whole trilogy is fantastic, but the music for this scene is especially so. The way the orchestra builds up as Bruce gathers himself to make that final jump (the chanting adds so much to it) and then he leaps...and the Dark Knight theme hits HARD as Bruce sticks the landing. So damn good.
This movie is definitely Christian Bale's best performance as Bruce Wayne/Batman. Bale is the definitive Batman/Bruce Wayne and Ben Affleck has a lot to live up to. I do think that Affleck will do a good job though.
WTF are you talking about he was hardly in the movie.
Clark Kent precisely clark less is more.
Batman was in the movie, u just have to understand the story, Gotham was peace crime free for 8 years after batman vanished into the night @ the end of the dark knight and bane broke his back & threw him in the pit, that's why u see more bruce wayne .Its still a spectacular film, even tim Burton's first film had more bruce wayne then batman, Nolan's 3 films r incredible, he's the first director/writer who did batman from start to finish & he deserves an oscar.
if you wanna watch cheesy comic books movies watch Spider-Man 3 , hulk, superman 3 4, batman forever & robin.
ben Affleck will do a superb job
His totem..his spirit animal, flying out of the hole...guiding him. Such a powerful moment in this movie.
So basically Bane locked up Batman in a gym. Doesn't really look like a prison.
It was a prison.. imagine being trapped somewhere, where you have a broken key and a view of sun.. that anxiety and trauma 🙄
Prisons do have gym. Even the worst prison in third world countries have something resemble to gym.
@@ashishbhatt3467 yep. They often use inmates as punching bags.
@@ali_raza_khan lol
I love that Bruce threw the rope down for the others to make their escape as well. We never hear any other dialogue from the other prisoners besides the old man and the blind man, but every single time Bruce or anyone else attempts the climb, they all gather around, chanting for their “rise”, never giving up on one another, and Bruce didn’t even think twice before freeing them from their persecutions and from their pits. A truly heroic moment.
This movie has so many beautiful scenes, but this is the best one
"I am not meant to die here!"
"Here, there... What's the difference?"
Hahahaha amazing 👌
That part, the last climb... always gives me chills. Incredible sound work with hans zimmer.
Eveytime I feel week and frightened, I always go here to remind myself that I can rise above all the negativities I am surrounded of.
Love how Nolan put so many details and references to older scenes.
So the rope was what was actually holding him back all these times from succeeding, while he kept it always as a safety net after failing each time. Such a subtle touch of teaching a valuable lesson.... I love you, Christopher nolan.
This scene always puts a smile on my face.
We all have our own prisons.!
The prison is life if you think about it
There's a prison for everything. It depends on if you want it to be one.
No we don't if u are being locked up in someones house please try to call for help
The mind can be the worst prison
No one will pull Bruce from the bottom. His dad used to do pull him and push his mind under the deep consciousness. Only Bruce will drag himself from the bottom. I love this scene.
I never what lenguaje is that..Deshi,Deshi basara basara...until now,thx for subtitles. This for me is the best scene because it's true,fear the dead make our humans make to do wonderful things,a woman break a door...men make increíble power to rise a vehicle to save people.
Thanks for the subtitles!
An allegory for depression and how when you get out of it you help others rise too
I remember watching this in the theater. It was an insanely amazing atmosphere. Words can't explain.
This scene is so deep at many levels:
1. Climb without the rope:The rope is symbolic of society , peer pressure(notice how people were yelling and cheering for Bruce Wayne).Society gives you a rope to climb out of your darkness but all it does it pull you back safely to the abyss, it just gives you a false hope like how Bruce never dies or gets severly injured, but he still remains in the prison. To be free you have to untie the rope society gave you.
2. The kid climbed without the rope: When we were child we didn't have any ropes attached to us,we did not according to what society said but according to our hearts. To experience freedom we must be like the child without any ropes attached to us and then climb our way out.
3 .Fear: We attach fear around us like how Bruce attached rope around his waist. This rope was given to us by society (The rope was first given to Bruce by a prisoner).
4. Illusion of the rope :Initially everyone thinks that the rope can set them free,as its hanging above and easy to take. Life is like that,the rope set by society is the path of least resistance but yet in never guarantees freedom ,its just an ILLUSION OF FREEDOM
Hands down to Nolan(and the screenwriter)for communicating this in the most subtle way possible. It just shoked my mind.
In the end, if you look closely. He was afraid of death. He acknowledged his own hypocrisy. He said he was not afraid of death, yet he climbed with a tether.
In the end he realized his mistake, the rope weighting him down if not pulling him back. But it was more of a mental victory. He in the end finally did no longer fear death, which makes him jump without the tether. Which forced him to give it his all to reach the other side as it was do or die. And it was not death he was fearful of, he was fearful of not making it to gotham in time. If he would have died there, his fear would become real.
What effectively happened was Bruce no longer was the man saying who he said he was, he finally became the man he always said he was.
“No fear is why you fail.” Just pure excellence!
This scene changed my life
The collective human spirit that this scene embodies is mind-blowing. The prisoners chant even though they are not the ones climbing; Bruce's success or failure at this point would not directly affect them in any way. They could not possibly know if Bruce would throw back a rope or help in any way if he got out. Their chanting has nothing to do with themselves and their individual redemptions. Doing so they rise in spirit with Bruce, they join him in the sun. Cinema at its most majestic.
Thanks to Nolan for making this scene and these films. Saw Dunkirk today.
And Zimmer for the outstanding scores that compliment them.
Goransson did outstanding too.
Why is this so goosebump worthy, I get it every time
My heart started racing when he said “without the rope”.
"Then fear will find you again"
Makes the climb. Bats come out of the hole.
