For those of you wondering, this is a (very large) mill wheel. The Romans also used to work slaves like this, it was actually cheaper to use slaves to turn a wheel then to use oxen. Similar mills could be used to grind wheat, ore, etc.. though none this big. The one in this scene seems like a mill for ore given the climate.

​@@danmj1074 it was cheaper up front to buy 20 men in ancient Rome then it was to buy 1 Ox, at least depending on time time period.for decades following major campaigns and during periods of regular expansion, the slave markets were saturated with massive numbers of slaves lowering the value dramatically. This allowed the super rich to essentially bulk buy slaves. This actually created huge economic problems in Rome, as wealthy owners of large scale slave plantations forced low class farmers out of work, sending literally millions of unemployed people into Rome and other major Italian cities abd creating the "urban poor" for the first time in history. This lead to a host of social problems which were at the core of basically every civil conflict in the late republican and early imperial eras. The plantations ran themselves pretty much, however the rich owned large amounts of land that were neglected and and a lot of the crop went to feeding the slaves, so Italy which had previously been a large exporter of food now realyed on Sicily and Egypt to meet their grain needs, especially with the grain dool, which was basically a welfare system where the state would give grain to the urban poor for free to keep them from rioting. This took up something like 30% of the national budget on average.

Nestor Makhno, the great Ukrainian anarchist revolutionary, was sentenced to life of hard labour in the meanest, toughest prison in Russian at the age of 17. Because he was never expected to be released, they welded the huge steel shackles shut around his legs. When the Soviets emptied the prisons seven years later as part of the general amnesty following the October Revolution, Makhno had to learn how to walk all over again because he had grown so accustomed to the terrible weight of his chains. Makhno became a ferocious and unstoppable warrior, like Conan. He led 50,000 untrained anarchists with makeshift weapons against an army of 600,000 German troops and drove them out of Ukraine. And he wasn't some general sitting behind a desk ordering men around, either. He would lead the charge on horseback at the head of his army, pistol in one hand and cavalry sabre in the other. Despite having an enormous bounty on his head, despite being severely wounded more than 20 times, despite throwing himself into the thickest part of the enemy forces time and time again, no one could stop him. In the end, it was the Soviets who betrayed him and broke the Makhnovshchina -- and they _never_ defeated Makhno. They invaded Ukraine with _millions_ of troops, and Makhno and his 50,000 men held out for five years against them. In the end, with all his men dead, Makhno fled for France, intending to return and raise another army. Stalin was so afraid of Makhno that he starved 10 million Ukrainians to death to prevent Makhno from doing so. Makhno died heartbroken, drunk in a Paris alley, at the age of 43. The greatest warrior of the 20th century died of sorrow.

The scene when he looks up muscles fully developed and the music added to that. What a master piece ....

That moment when you hear Mako's voice and it makes you think about his last voice over has Uncle Hiro in Avatar last airbender and can't help but shed a tear...

One aspect that seems to elude most people is that Conan is tied to the Wheel of Pain with other children and, little by little, they all vanish (probably death took them) 'till only an adult Conan remains, showing that he is inherently stronger than all the others. It may also hint to the unseen fire that burns within: his thirst for revenge. To kill those who murdered his parents. A fire so strong that fuels his soul and body in an apparent perfect mix, making him possibly the strongest man who has ever lived, both in body and mind.

Most of your muscles need some kind of contraction and extraction with a logical periodisation and progression in weight. So even if you add more weight on to the wheel, you're not going to see big results. Even in your legs. You're just going to fuck up your joints.

As stated by others here. The wheel was so perfectly balanced that they had to make resistance to make Arnie look like it was a effort to push. In Kingdom Of Heaven Ridley Scott ordered the seige towers be built with real solid hard wood. The hundreds of extras strained to push them up against the castle walls. When asked why they were constructed for real. Ridley pointed out. It would have been like that in the day. Also the dozens of extras pushing the seige towers were straining every muscle. There was no acting involved. You also don't have to keep directing the extras to show a heavy load. How many times have a seen a modern sitcom or TV series, where an actor is carrying his/her luggage. You can tell the suit cases are empty. Just by the ease and the shoulders position and posture of the body of walking and carry weight. I worked on a small independent film (2 Of A Kind) one scene a crook took out a body from a trunk. It was shot beneath the car. They did it with the actor pretending to open the trunk and lift the body out to where it was to be dumped. The framing was a little above the ankles down to the road level. I insisted he actually carry someone. I was laughed at as they all said no one will tell. We then did a take and saw the strain on the running shoes and feet and the balancing needed to counter weight. Then the shuffle and how the actor needed to throw the actress a little higher to get a better grip around her body. They saw the 2 takes, then commented oh yeah the second take looks like he is carrying someone. After a few weeks It was brought up in conversation on another film shoot. One of the crew said they were shooting office people (in the story) at a gym. for insurance purposes they had most with fake dumbell weights (discs) the 2 gym instructors who were extras had about 30kg/65 pound weights. The editor on that noticed the swaying on the 2 with real weights, like a pendulum.

Best movie prop story I ever heard was from a SEAL buddy of mine while we were doing contractor work. He said that one of the bad ass instructors came out for an endurance run wearing scuba gear. He told me he had a feeling something wasn't right after the instructor warned what would happen if he beat anyone on this run. He said he ran as fast as he could and finished ahead of most of the class that ran next to the instructor laughing and joking all the way to the halfway point. At the halfway point this instructor took off at his regular speed and they all found out the hard way it was just a movie prop from The Posidean Adventure. They have a saying, "Don't let me lead you into a false sense of security" and they mean it.

Smart man.

Through pain, one becomes strong.... Only if one is capable, and willing to push through the madness, forge through the fire, persevere through the torment, fight through the injustice, live through the hell, and conquer the chaos.... When dealt with more pain than one ordinary individual should live through..... You must make a choice. Live or Die.

Atmosphere visuality and music of the movie is really stunning. True masterpiece.

Conan maxed out his stats at level 1. That’s why the rest of the levels were easy. Smart grind.

A new take on being a well rounded person.

Can you imagine getting jumped by some Hyborians on the highroads and you hear one of them say: "Put his ass in the wheel of pain."

Is there anybody else who chills for that 2:55 moment with such an awesome score? Its view and the music makes it legendary I think.

Interesting that he's locked into the wheel by a red-headed boy, then later bought by a red-headed man. Makes ya wonder if they're the same person.

When you realise he is the only one pushing the wheel in the end because all the other slaves literally died from exhaustion... No wonder his character is so simple, focused, disciplined. And full of controlled anger.

Apparently Arnold got so buff from using the wheel that there had to be film crew guys pushing against it on the other side offscreen just to make it look like he was straining.

We are expecting our first child in a few months.......it's going to be a BOY!!!!!!!!! The wife and I are SO happy! And I have already started building one of these huge wooden wheels in our backyard. By the time our son is 15, he is going to be TOTALLY ripped! A total BADASS!

This is how Conan's strength stat became 18/00 lol

I took over the lawn mowing duties around age 8 or 9 at my house. There was an area with a steep uphill slope that was difficult for me. To push the mower up the hill I had to lower my hips and drop my head with my arms straight out in front of me. No joke, I imagined I was kid Conan pushing the wheel of pain! I even had the music playing in my mind! It gave me the mental strength I needed to push the mower up the hill! Thank you Arnold and Basil for this epic and motivating scene!

This is what I’ve done my whole life since I watched the movie ...now I’m a beast

In the days of yore when there was no gym centers, ancients could build those bodies only by using the wheel of pain. Those were the days...

This is still epic and badass in 2019! The soundtrack to the entire movie is amazing!

How can someone dislike this? This is Darwinism at it's best. Natural selection; survival of the fittest!

What Conan repeated in his head every day, "I will push this wheel until it breaks or it breaks me. I will not break. I will push another day."

Rogue just built a new “Wheel of Pain” for the Arnold Classic 2019 strong man event!

The wheel of pain was an idea between Milius and Arnold to explain how Conan got his big muscles. Just push a car for a few seconds and you'll get the idea

New MMO Game out now called '' Conan: Exiles'' You begin the game chained to a cross in the desert only to be rescued by Conan himself. He Tells you to meet him later when you are stronger as you have a destiny to fulfill together. You then proceed to survive the wilderness making tools, weapons and armor from scratch. You can make massive bases to house your forges, beds, armory, blacksmith etc to defend against other players and Npcs.. Its a terrific game. The best part is the ''wheel of pain'' you eventually build so you can create your own slaves to help you defend your base and follow you out into the world.

Conan actually ate all the other people! that’s why he’s so big and strong and no one‘s left!

Seriously though.this scene is a wonderful thing to express the theory of strength 💪💪..mentality and physical.Robert E Howard has a great inspiration for this film from the eastern and western philosophy studies he was fascinated by.mental state predicates how long we endure...the physical health is governed by the will of the mind

That wheel would make a good workout machine. Although I did hear that it was VERY lightweight in real life that they needed other people to push Arnold's pushing to give it more resistance weight. I always thought Mako (Akiro The Wizard) had a really cool voice while narrating. I also heard in real life that wheel was a real operating grain grinder that worked.

To be fair, wheel of pain looks like a great workout. Full body, activates biggest muscle groups, combined strength and cardio. If there was only exercise you could do ...

Simple yet great scene. I loved the way they showed his development from childhood to manhood. Arnold has some huge legs.

Making all those left turns, Conan would’ve been a phenom in NASCAR

Arnold is the embodiment of perfection which makes his 'altercation' with the family maid all the more staggering.

@elainemiller8296

Жыл бұрын

I felt like this too. But now I look at it differently. The maid was performing wifely duties in his home (keeping house is considered by many to be a wifely duty deeply appreciated by husbands) what was his wife doing? She was doing something more important to her than keeping house. I used to babysit for a few different families in my teens and early twenties. I've had husbands tell me they "love me" when they walk into a clean house and I report the kids are fed, bathed, and in bed asleep. I've had husbands give excessive and disproportionate amounts of praise when seeing a prepared meal. I think if Miss Kennedy had not cooperated in establishing a situation where there was another woman in her home doing her duties, the affair wouldn't have happened. I think Arnold turned down many many opportunities to cheat with other more stunningly beautiful women. I believe that 100%. Why was this woman different. I think most men are simply in that they want their wives and they want appreciation for the home they provide. I think this maid happily going around taking care of the home ARNOLD worked hard to create was just too much for him. She got him in the heart. God bless him and his family and all his children.

​@@elainemiller8296Jesus f*cking Christ! Couldn't you be MORE male chauvinist than this? Arnold cheated Maria a thousand times - Brigitte Nielsen and Rae Dawn Chong included. It was never a secret for no one. You are living in the past, in the 40s and 50s , when housewife was the perfect role for a woman.

I always loved the transition from boy to manhood with the swelling of the music when Conan raised his head.

This is the best physical representation I've ever seen of how it feels like to be a Jets fan

I was one of those idiots who listened to the Conan soundtrack pre gym during gym and cardio I listened to this track on repeat whilst grinding the stair master that's a tough one but when get used to it it's great for shredding up your legs.

You will find me commenting on all these clips from Conan, every few months. This movie is brilliant! I love that there are so many speculations and theories about the red-haired boy and man. Just like there are about the facial expression Thulsa made just before he beheaded Conan’s mother. What makes it great is that he is there, his story is left to our imagination, but the seed has been planted! In the documentary of the making of the movie, someone said that during the premiere, when Conan lifted his head, and it was the face of Schwarzenegger, the people in the cinema lost their shit. Wish I was there...

Best Fantasy Movie EVER MADE!!!

Talk about super-hero origin stories. This is about as good as it gets. The guards must be thinking "I fear we have created a giant and filled it with a terrible resolve".

What is best in life? To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women

No one would ever know that Conan's people existed at all, except Conan himself and all the other children of his tribe that survived enslavement.

Leg day is everyday for Conan

I love that this film inspired the world strongest man competition too make there own wheel of pain and use it too compete against each other. Arnold is the Goat 🐐

Underrated soundtrack and composer for sure !
